Gut Health, Hormones, and Mental Wellness Uncovered with Tina Anderson

The Hormone Solution with Karen Martel

Today we’re talking all about the link between gut health and mental wellness for women navigating midlife challenges like perimenopause and menopause. I’m joined by Tina Anderson, CEO and co-founder of Just Thrive. Tina shares her journey from a high-stress career to discovering the profound impact of the gut microbiome on her own hormonal balance and mental state. We discuss innovative spore-based probiotics that survive the gastric environment and significantly alter gut flora, offering promising benefits for conditions such as stress, anxiety, autoimmune diseases, and chronic inflammation. We also give advice on diet, lifestyle changes, and the potential of probiotics to revolutionize mental wellness and hormone balance.
