Description:
Modern life is hostile to the human microbiome. Processed food, antibiotics, artificial sweeteners, stress, and disrupted circadian rhythms have pushed our gut ecosystems far from what our biology evolved to handle. In this video, I walk through a self-experimental framework for resetting the microbiome. We’ll cover a 4-phase microbiome reset: elimination, early repopulation, advanced repopulation, and long-term maintenance. This is not medical advice. It’s a structured way to explore your N=1 safely.
