Gut Health for Weight Loss in Otley & Leeds | Sustainable, Food-First

This 60-minute gut health workshop is part of a 7-workshop series, designed to help you understand how gut health impacts real-life outcomes like energy, mood, focus, hormones and performance.

Each workshop focuses on a specific topic and breaks down what’s really going on in the gut, why common symptoms keep showing up, and which simple changes make the biggest difference. No extreme diets. No confusing science. Just clear, food-first guidance you can apply straight away.

If you attend, you can expect expert-led explanations, practical takeaways, time for questions, and guided tastings of kombucha, kimchi, kraut and kefir.

You’ll leave clearer, more confident, and knowing exactly what to focus on first.

This is just one workshop in the series. You can book onto this session on its own, or combine it with others running across February and March if you want to go deeper and take your gut health to the next level.

Overview:
Support sustainable weight loss by improving gut health, digestion and metabolic balance.

Full Description:
If weight loss feels harder than it should, the gut is often involved.

Poor digestion, inflammation, blood sugar swings and stress can all work against you, even when you’re eating “well” and staying active.

This workshop explains how gut health influences body weight and why extreme dieting rarely leads to long-term results.

We’ll explore how improving gut health can support:
• Better appetite regulation
• Fewer cravings and energy crashes
• Improved digestion and comfort
• Sustainable fat loss without extremes

This is not about restriction or willpower.
It’s about creating the right internal conditions for your body to respond.

You’ll leave with practical, food-first strategies you can use straight away, plus time for questions.

Includes guided tastings of kombucha, kimchi, kraut, and kefir.

What You’ll Get:
✔ Clear explanation of how gut health affects weight loss
✔ Practical food-first strategies you can apply immediately
✔ What to prioritise first (and what to stop doing)
✔ Live Q&A with gut health experts
✔ Guided tasting of the 4Ks

Who This Is For:
Anyone wanting a calmer, more sustainable approach to weight loss that works with their body, not against it.
