Things You Need To Know For Better Gut Health with Emeran Mayer, MD & Dylan Mayer, MS

Listen Now

In this special Ask Me Anything (AMA) episode of The Mind-Gut Conversation, I answer real questions from our members—covering everything from ADHD and the gut to colonic hydrotherapy, ultra-processed foods and how to fix your microbiome after a night of drinking.

Joining me for this episode is my son, Dylan, who has been deeply involved in our work at emeranmayer.com. With his background in nutrition and passion for health, we tackle your biggest concerns, including:

  • The gut microbiome’s role in ADHD—what does the latest research say?
  • Can kids be taught to “listen” to their gut?
  • Histamine intolerance, yogurt fermentation, and probiotics—can too much of a good thing backfire?
  • Does colonic hydrotherapy harm the microbiome?
  • The truth about protein powders—do they count as ultraprocessed foods?
  • How does alcohol impact the gut, and can red wine be beneficial?
  • The carnivore diet, gluten and fiber—what’s best for gut health?
  • How to distinguish between gut-related, hormone-related or insulin-related symptoms.

If you’re looking for science-backed insights on how to optimize your gut health, avoid common pitfalls and make informed choices about your diet and lifestyle, this AMA is for you!
