There was a time when the subject of one’s bowl movements was rarely discussed (if at all), now it’s a topic fit for the dinner table. A bit like mental health. But with 80% of your immune system living in your gut, you owe it to yourself to get acquainted with this important organ. It’s the gateway to the mind after all…
THE GUT STUFF
Why should you give a s**t? is the mantra behind this gut collective that is obsessed with your gut health. Their website is a gateway to nutritionists that are on call to answer any questions, the best books on how to heal and support your gut and supplements that are scientifically proven to help support that oh so important organ. All curated in one convenient place! They also regularly host events including the upcoming ‘The Gut Stuff Tackles IBS’ where nutritional therapist Eve Kalinik joins forces with Dr. Dawn Harper to discuss the links between anxiety and IBS.
The Gut Stuff twins will also be hosting an event at tibits Mayfair in May where they will share their journey and tips about gut health. There will be Q&A’s, acid tests, balloon making, food and drink tasting and a welcome cocktail. You ‘gutta’ be there! Read our interview with the twins here.
