Hey everyone! 🤗 I feel like gut health has become a pretty sexy topic with lots of products claiming to promote it and lots of ideas on how to take care of it, so I wanted to know exactly what leading scientists can really say with confidence and what’s still a big question mark where all we have is theory ❤️

It sucks to hear, "We don't fully know yet." But it's so much better than ppl saying, "We know everything!" When we really don't. This was so helpful and informative. Thank you so much for sharing <3 Just subbed :)

For Years I thought I was unfortunate enough to store extra fat in my belly area. My stomach stuck out like a basketball ... 3 weeks ago, I changed my diet to lean proteins, and was drinking 64 ounces of water per day. Two weeks into it, my stomach went almost flat! I didn’t lose weight - it was like someone deflated the basketball in my stomach. Obviously the food I was eating and drinking all of these years was bloating my stomach making me “fat.” Friends and family noticed the difference right away. It’s amazing how changing my diet and flushing my body with water made all the difference!

I always felt my gut and mental health had a connection. After I went vegan and started eating a lot more fiber and less processed sugar my anxiety went from a full 10 to like a 4

This video summed up 2 semesters of anatomy and physiology and 1 semester of microbiology in college. Love the video Nat!

I've honestly been having gut problems because of stress and anxiety, this couldn't have come at a better time 💕

This is actually great. I used to be low-FODMAP and it’s absolutely true - DO NOT restrict your diet to that level unless you are seriously ill. You are seriously doing more damage than good. Water, sleep, exercise and a well-rounded and balanced diet is really the best we can do in the absence of conclusive research. Thanks for the video!!

[livelifeloudx]

I appreciate that this video wasn't just "eat exactly this" and "don't do this" and it wasn't pushy towards one strict plan. I like how considerate and honest you are! Thank you for sharing :)

Natacha this video is absolutely incredible - this is what should be out there in the media, not trashy goss about fad diets which claim will "heal your gut" even when top scientists cannot 100% prove that through their research! This content is the stuff that people need to hear. Your hard work and dedication is so inspiring - THANK YOU!

[adriennedeschamps]

I love how well-researched and well thought-out your videos are, especially on these types of buzzing topics! You're like the voice of reason on everything FAD and I so appreciate you taking the time to share your knowledge with the youtube world. Sending love all the way from Canada!
