How Your Good Microbes Crowd Out the Bad Ones

About this episode

Your microbiome is doing so much more than helping you digest food. Your beneficial microbes are constantly helping to keep opportunistic microbes in check—and this protection extends far beyond your gut. In this episode, I'm talking about how good microbes crowd out the bad ones, why balance matters more than trying to eliminate every harmful organism, and the fascinating connection between the gut, vaginal, and bladder microbiomes. The more I learn about microbes, the more I realize that everything is connected. 🌿 Feed the microbes you want to flourish, and they can help create an environment where the troublemakers have a much harder time taking over.
