How well do you know your gut? You may have seen the word probiotics on your food, or possibly seen recipes to help your gut health with the three K’s: Kombucha, Kefir and Kimchi. But do probiotic foods and supplements actually work?

What does the relationship with our microbiome actually look like? How do the billions of microbes in our bodies affect our moods, relationships and our long term health?

You might think it's just about diet, but it turns out everything from politics and war to climate change and the economy has an impact on our microbiome, and while there's a lot we don't understand - there's a growing body of evidence to suggest our microbiome has the potential to prevent illness, shape how we think and influence who we choose as a partner.

In this ThinkIn, hosted by Tortoise's Mark St. Andrew, Dr James Kinross walks us through his research that shows how your gut shapes your life, what you can do to make yours better and how protecting our environment could help improve human health.
