Did you know that the trillions of microbes in your gut could be the key to weight loss, better energy, fewer aches and pains - and even reversing chronic disease?

 

In this episode, gut health pioneer Martha Carlin joins Coach Kevin to break down why your microbiome is the hidden root of so many modern health issues - and what you can do to restore it. 

 

Whether you’re dealing with bloating, fatigue, brain fog, or stubborn weight that just won’t budge - this conversation will give you a fresh (and hopeful) perspective on what’s really going on inside your body. And more importantly - how to fix it.

 

🧠 About Martha Carlin:

Martha Carlin is a citizen scientist, entrepreneur, and microbiome researcher. After her husband’s early Parkinson’s diagnosis, she made it her life’s mission to understand the gut-brain connection. She’s the founder of The BioCollective, a microbiome research company, and BiotiQuest, a probiotic brand focused on gut restoration. Martha has been awarded a $1.2 million NIH grant and has spoken at TEDx, the White House, and global health conferences.
