Chronic disease states start in the gut. Stool testing has been gaining traction to help people reach their health goals by working on their gut health and overall well-being. Stool testing can take a look inside your gut microbiome and identify pathogens, parasites, keystone species, nutrients, genetic material, and more. Clinicians and doctors can utilize this valuable data to continue to prevent disease and turn around health conditions by making lifestyle changes and personalizing supplements, including specific probiotic strains. So many people are struggling with their gut health, due to diet, lifestyle, genetics, and chronic stress. Women transitioning through menopause will experience changes going on in the gut microbiome as well. I’ve recorded a different podcast on midlife women and their gut health with Microbiome Labs co-founder, Kiran Krishnan, so be sure to check out episode #63 on Apple, Google, Spotify, Amazon, and YouTube, as well as on my website at jillfooswellness.com. Today, I’m speaking to Kara Siedman. Kara is a registered dietitian, clinical liaison for Microbiome Labs, and certified diabetes educator with more than 13 years of clinical experience. Most recently, Kara spent the last 8 years working in a large gastroenterology practice, building a program that integrates functional medicine and nutrition into their patient care model. With a strong focus on the microbiome and overall health, Kara has guided many patients on a journey to reclaim their health and well-being. She continues to grow her knowledge in this evolving field to provide the tools for patients and offer up-to-date and current research surrounding all things microbiome-related.
