The Link Between Gut Bugs and Your Sleep Issues (part 2) with Dr Stasha Gominak | EP 303
Have you listened to part 1 of this conversation? Wowee! I recommend starting there at episode 301 to get the first half of this epic conversation. To carry on… whilst vitamin D can solve some people’s sleep problems, it turns out that there are some major implications on sleep if your microbiome is missing species or whether it’s overrun with others as a result of a poor diet for a long time, the consequence can be, poor sleep. Believe it or not your guts create necessary resources for good sleep and if your gut is out of whack (whether you have physical discomfort or not) then it’s likely your sleep is too. It’s all connected and in this conversation we explain how.
In this episode we discussed:
- How vitamin D is connected to the functionality of the microbiome
- Why the bacterial species in the gut are being wiped out
- How B vitamins are manufactured by your gut bacteria
- Why B vitamins are called B vitamins
- How your bacterial microbiome disrupts sleep
- Why vitamin D deficiency AND B vitamin deficiencies are causing sleep issues
- Which foods can we use to repopulate the gut bacteria
- Do supplements work to fix these gut issues and therefore sleep issues
- Why we need the prebiotics and the probiotics
- Why washing food isn’t the best idea for your gut health
