    Mini Motivation: How to boost your gut microbiome (from someone who knows)

    In this Mini Motivation episode, host Amelia Phillips is back with the Microbiome Doctor, gastroenterologist Dr Paul Froomes, to find out how we can all master our gut microbiomes. Amelia asks about 'weeding and seeding', the best probiotics, and the potential of Akkermansia to support metabolic health and weight management. Plus, Dr Paul gives his go-to pre- and probiotics for a healthy, happy, balanced gut.  About the guest: Dr Paul Froomes is a Melbourne-based gastroenterologist with over 30 years of experience helping patients with complex gastrointestinal disorders. Trained at Monash University and the Royal Australian College of Physicians, he has gone on to complete advanced training in endoscopy and oesophageal physiology, as well as a master’s degree in liver disease at the University of Melbourne. Beyond his hospital and clinic work, Dr Froomes has dedicated his career to finding the root causes of gut issues like IBS, reflux, and inflammatory bowel disease – publishing research, training doctors, and now building innovative treatment programs that are changing lives. Dr Froomes is the co-founder of The Microbiome Clinic™, a new age medical practice built to make his decades of learnings about the microbiome accessible to more patients and practitioners. After seeing countless people struggle with conditions that didn’t improve under standard care, he recognised the need for a model that treats the root cause – imbalances in the microbiome – rather than just the symptoms.Follow Dr Paul on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drpaulfroomes/ The Microbiome Clinic: https://themicrobiomeclinic.com.au/ About the host: Amelia Phillips is an exercise scientist, nutritionist, and published researcher (BSc, MNut) with a career spanning 26 years in health.
