Nicole Dynan, dietitian and gut health expert, joined us for a conversation in 2022. The topic was gut health, and it turned out to be a VERY popular episode! Today, the importance of good nutrition for a healthy gut remains as relevant as ever, so we're revisiting our 'Nuts and gut health' episode, during Gut Health Month, which runs across February. In this fascinating deep dive, Nicole shares how food and dietary patterns influence the gut microbiota, and what the best diet for gut health actually looks like. And she busts some common gut-health myths along the way. Of course, we had questions about nuts too. What does the science tell us about nuts and gut health? How do nut nutrients impact the gut microbiota? Should you avoid nuts if you have diverticular disease? Do you need to activate nuts before eating them? Plus, more. It's an easy listen to get up-to-speed on what remains one of the hottest topics in nutrition and health.   Access episode webpage: https://www.nutsforlife.com.au/resource/nuts-and-gut-health-re-release/  About today's guest Nicole is known as 'The Gut Health Dietitian' as she specialises in gut health and food intolerance and is one of a handful of dietitians in Australia with qualifications in dietetics and psychology.
