Your microbiome weighs as much as your brain—and it's actively shaping your health in surprising ways. 🧠🦠

I've just released a breakdown of my interview with Professor Colin Hill, one of the world's leading microbiome experts. If you care about your health but want the science without the BS, this is for you.

Here are the 5 key takeaways:
✓ Your gut is a "virtual organ" you weren't born with
✓ Gut bacteria speak the same chemical language as your brain
✓ Your microbiome directly influences weight, mood, and disease
✓ Fermented foods > supplements (here's why)
✓ How probiotics ACTUALLY work (not what you think)
