65 - Gut Health & Autism with Christian Yordanov
In this week’s episode, I spoke with fellow FDN Practitioner Christian Yordanov about the importance of our gut and the gut microbiome, why it is so important to our overall health and also it’s links to autism.
This was a really fascinating conversation and one that most people need to hear, especially those who have children on the Autistic Spectrum.
As always, the episode does end on a positive note, giving many options for those who are suffering from gut issues or autism.
