Can a happy gut be the secret to a happier you? Join me, Nicole Moore, as we uncover the fascinating links between gut health and overall wellness on the Low Carb Keto Health Podcast.

Together, we'll explore how digestive issues, fatigue, and mood swings could be signaling an imbalance in your gut microbiome.

Our journey will reveal how factors like chronic stress and poor diet can disturb this delicate ecosystem and impact your immune system, energy levels, and weight.

With practical advice on integrating probiotics, prebiotics, and a low-carb diet, you'll learn how to nourish your gut and, in turn, promote a healthier and more vibrant you.

In our quest for optimal gut health, we'll also demystify the role of fibre, essential yet often overlooked in low-carb diets.

Discover how foods like garlic, asparagus, and green bananas, along with nuts, leafy greens, and chia seeds, can support your digestive tract without tipping the carb scale.

Together, we'll highlight how these dietary choices reduce the risk of gut-related diseases and maintain a thriving gut environment.

Listen in for actionable steps to enhance your gut health through the SSM approach—sleep, stress management, and movement—and transform your well-being, one meal at a time.

Discover the intricate world of food addiction with clinical psychologist Dr. Jen Unwin, who specialises in this compelling field.

Dr. Unwin shares her personal journey and sheds light on the alarming prevalence of food addiction among individuals struggling with type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Together, we tackle the societal challenges posed by ultra-processed foods, advocating for food addiction to be recognised as a legitimate condition deserving of proper treatment and support, much like the historical acknowledgment of nicotine addiction.

As ultra-processed foods continue to dominate our diets, we recognise their potential to hijack the brain, much like addictive substances such as alcohol and nicotine.

This episode explores the struggle individuals face, even those well-versed in health, in making healthier choices despite knowing the harm.

We discuss the ongoing efforts to get food addiction recognised by major diagnostic systems and the importance of the CRAVED criteria in diagnosing this condition.

We also emphasise distinguishing between individuals who need to abstain from specific foods and those who can moderate their consumption.

Strategies for managing food addiction are at the forefront of our discussion, with a focus on identifying foods with drug-like effects and building supportive habits.

We highlight the impact of the Liberate course, an eight-week online program designed to help participants achieve and maintain abstinence, and share insights into our residential treatment retreats in the UK.

Our conversation is a call to action, encouraging reflection, learning, and continuous progress on personal health journeys.

Join us in this episode as we explore the science, stories, and strategies that empower individuals to take control of their health.
