Your Gut 101 : How to Support It, What's...

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

What if the key to healing your body—and your mind—starts in your gut?
Could anxiety, low energy, and inflammation all trace back to the same place?
And what if the secret to balance isn’t adding more, but restoring what’s already within you?

 

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with microbiologist and gut health expert Kiran Krishnan for a fascinating, eye-opening conversation on how our gut influences everything—from digestion and mood to immunity and mental clarity.

 

Kiran breaks down complex science into simple truths about how the body really works. He shares why our gut is like a living rainforest, how stress and antibiotics disrupt its balance, and what it actually takes to rebuild harmony within your system. Together, Radhi and Kiran explore how small daily habits—like eating slowly, adding bitters, and embracing probiotics—can shift not just your digestion, but your entire sense of well-being.

 

This isn’t just a conversation about gut health. It’s about reconnecting with the natural intelligence of your body and remembering that healing doesn’t have to be complicated—it just has to be conscious.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why 99.9% of microbes in your body are helping, not harming you
  • How stress directly impacts your digestion and mental health
  • What antibiotics really do to your microbiome—and how to recover
  • Why slow eating and digestive bitters can transform how you feel
  • The connection between gut health, mood, and better sleep
  • How to create a daily routine that supports balance from the inside out

If you’ve been feeling tired, foggy, or disconnected from your body, this episode is your reminder: healing doesn’t start in the mind—it starts in the gut.
