While for some winter is a magical holiday time, most of us dread the colder months. Fewer daylight hours and chilly weather often make us feel lethargic, hungrier than usual and even downright depressed.

We've all heard the saying: “You are what you eat”, but what exactly does it mean? How does the food we consume affect our gut health, digestion and overall quality of life?

Toby Yo, a personal trainer, entrepreneur, host of the Lifestyle Journey podcast and Australian biohacker, talks about how healthy dietary patterns have helped him not only improve digestion and gut health but also treat acne and relieve hay fever. He also shares multiple gut optimisation tips he learned along the way.

For most of us (people without Celiac disease) there is damage to the lining of the intestines, though to a small degree. This is measured by the presence of the protein zonulin after consuming gluten which shows that the gut/intestinal lining is more permeable (aka a more ‘leaky’ gut).

Different types of enzymes are needed to break down different macronutrients (fats, proteins and carbs) and then specific enzymes work on different proteins, for example, lactase on lactose from dairy products and DPP-IV on gluten from wheat products. So whether you’re a carb loving vegetarian or on Keto and heavy on fats, enzymes are working to absorb the meal. 

Christian Baker, a professional speaker and nutritional specialist, is talking about fatigue as the most common reason for dropping the New Year's resolutions within the first week of January.

Have you ever noticed that some mornings you can barely feel a thing even after multiple cups of coffee? Christian Baker, a professional speaker and nutritional specialist, explains how timing and nutrition influence the way our body responds to caffeine.

Christian also shares several strategies and exercises that can help make coffee more effective, boost energy levels and improve productivity.

The afternoon slump is a drop in energy levels that kicks in at around 3pm every working day. You may feel extremely tired and need to take a nap. This sudden drop in energy levels and focus can negatively impact your productivity, reduce your desire to exercise in the evening and give you some serious carb cravings for your next meal. Another cup of coffee is the typical solution, however, there could be a better way to handle it.

Christian Baker, a professional speaker and nutritional specialist, explains how incorrect nutrition habits can worsen the afternoon slump and shares effective tips on how to avoid it in the first place.
