    EP 45 | Gut Health Struggles After Comp Prep

    Why do so many athletes struggle with gut health after competition? Most people were never taught how food actually affects their body — and it shows. This episode dives into holistic health, gut health, and nutrition education, exploring how food intolerances, digestive health issues, and poor gut microbiome diversity impact both physical and mental well-being. We share personal experiences, break down why one-size-fits-all diets fail, and explain how understanding your own body leads to better health outcomes. We unpack real digestive health challenges athletes and bodybuilders face — from food intolerances to gut microbiome damage caused by extreme dieting. We discuss:• Athlete nutrition beyond macros• Gut health and mental well-being• Post-competition digestive issues• Why food relationships matter more than meal plans If you’re serious about performance, recovery, and long-term health, your gut microbiome cannot be ignored!
