Gut health Q&A with Aicacia Young: protein intake, gut detox protocol, IgG, cycling hormones, trendy supplements

Our gut health queen is here! Aicacia Young - you guys really loved our episode last month all about IBS and how to diagnose your symptoms. So we have her back on the pod today for a Q&A. We’ve got a jam packed episode - we’re gonna cover how much protein you should be eating in a day, how to figure out what specifically in dairy triggers you, the one magical supplement everyone could benefit from, why you should do a gut detox before getting pregnant, and the two supplements to take for a proper gut detox. And we get Aicacia’s hot take on some of the trendy supplements out there like Athletic Greens and Seed probiotics.
