Minutes 1-5: Facts about the intestine, how it works and the development and function of the microbiome.
Minutes 6-10: The connection between nutrition, the gut and physical and mental health. The production of happiness hormones and digestion.
Minutes 11-15: What types of bacteria are there? What are good and bad bacteria? What are probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics - the fuels of our digestive tract.
Minutes 16-20: What are “natural” probiotics from fermented foods and what are their advantages and disadvantages compared to industrial products like those from mybacs?

BETTER INPUTS - BETTER OUTPUTS
In our podcast we talk about topics that nobody wants to talk about. Most people are probably familiar with them from their everyday lives: intolerances, digestive problems or flatulence. The intestinal flora is important for digestion, the defense against germs and toxins and the strengthening of the immune system. Everything is controlled by the composition of bacteria... so it's no wonder that they are not only on everyone's lips at the moment, but are also the subject of current research. But where does all this come from and is there a chance of improvement? Current research results fuel hopes that in the future the intestinal flora will be able to be specifically modulated through diet and through probiotics and prebiotics. We regularly talk to scientists, doctors and those affected about the topics of intestinal health, microbiome, intestinal flora and probiotics.
