Gut Super Powers

We’ll hear the latest research and developments on gut health from Dr Emily Prpa Chief Science Officer for Yakult UK & Ireland. along with other leading experts.

Research shows there is a bidirectional relationship between the gut microbiome and female sex hormones, including oestrogen and progesterone. The gut-hormone axis. We’ll be looking at women’s gut health through key life stages – menstrual cycle, perimenopause and the menopause.

We will also discuss the gut brain axis and how the microbiome effects mood.

As we head into the influenza season now is a good time to boost your gut health, 70% of the immune system is located in the gut, so we’ll explore the role of diet and fibre on maintaining a healthy gut.
