In today’s podcasts we talk about the gut microbiome and I am joined by Dr Emma Short. Dr Short is a Consultant doctor in the NHS doctor specialising in gastrointestinal and soft tissue pathology. She also has a PhD in cancer genetics. 
  
As a pathologist, Emma spends many of her working hours diagnosing chronic diseases such as cancer. Many of these diseases are preventable. Every day, she sees the effects that people's lifestyles have on their health and wellbeing. As a result, Emma has become passionate about health promotion and disease prevention using evidence-based lifestyle interventions. 
 
 Emma is a qualified fitness instructor, personal trainer and run leader. She has a keen interest in the interaction between the mind and the body, and the impact that mental wellbeing and social connections have on health. Emma is a qualified meditation teacher and is a great advocate of showing kindness in all spheres of life. She loves exploring different aspects of holistic wellbeing and has diplomas in Mindful Nutrition and Shrinrin Yoku. She has written or edited three books about health and wellbeing.
