Ep. 30 - Gut Check: What’s Your Body Telling You?
We switched up our routine and recorded on a Tuesday afternoon as we dug into two big experiments we are running on ourselves. We talk through why we both did GI MAP stool testing to see what our gut microbiome is really doing and how that can connect to mood, metabolism, parasites, and long term health. We also share why Dan finally did a sleep study after years of spotty nights and how we think about practical fixes like sleep hygiene, nasal breathing, mouth taping, magnesium glycinate and threonate, cooler darker rooms, and smarter evening routines.
From there we get honest about alcohol. We unpack how even a single drink can change sleep quality and next day mood, why we choose to enjoy it only on rare occasions, and why the growing mocktail culture feels like progress. We also kick around questions we want to explore next time including what really happened in the prohibition era and how today’s marketing shapes habits.
We wrap with an update on our new Holy Health lunch and learns at church and invite you to weigh in. If you have thoughts on alcohol trends, prohibition history, or questions about gut and sleep testing, send them our way. We are here for real talk, real solutions, and a healthier lifestyle together.
