I’m captivated by the microbiome and all the groundbreaking research surrounding it. After diving into Dr. Brett Finlay’s books, I knew I had to have him on the podcast. Fortunately, he accepted the invite!
Our microbes, which inhabit both inside and outside of us, play a crucial role in our health. Understanding them better is essential to providing our bodies the support they need.
Walker and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation with the brilliant Dr. Brett Finlay, exploring all aspects of the microbiome! Brett, a Canadian microbiologist and professor at the University of British Columbia, is an expert in bacterial infections. With over 30 years of studying microbes and more than 450 published articles, he is the best-selling author of “Let Them Eat Dirt: Saving Your Child From An Oversanitized World” and “The Whole Body Microbiome.” Brett resides in Vancouver with his wife and has two grown children.

Hi Joy,
I absolutely loved this episode! Like you, I am fascinated by the microbiome and its impact on our overall health. Dr. Finlay was both interesting and engaging.
My main takeaway was that different types of probiotics address specific health issues, and you can visit probioticchart.ca to see how various probiotics available in Canada compare. I’ve noticed that Genuine Health’s probiotics aren’t on the chart, though I know you recommend their products, including their probiotics. Could you explain why? It concerns me because these are the probiotics I give to my kids.
Thank you so much!
I’m not sure why Genuine Health’s probiotics aren’t listed, but I will look into it! It might be that the listing requires payment or is created by another brand, even though it appears unbiased. However, I assure you that all the strains in their children’s probiotic are carefully selected for their evidence-based benefits. You shouldn’t be worried about using them. I only recommend products that I trust and would use or give to my own child. Still, I’ll find out more for you.
Fascinating interview. Thank you for sharing!

So interesting! I loved this episode, and along with your talks at Soulful Reset, it has driven me to learn more about the microbiome. My husband suffers from asthma and frequent respiratory infections, and I feel listening to this podcast was meant to shed light on the gut-lung connection. Thank you!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! I hope it provided useful tips for your husband. Thanks for your comment!
I once spent so much money on hospital treatments for herpes, but I never found a cure. I consulted many doctors who prescribed medicine but couldn’t help. Fortunately, I learned about a doctor who cured herpes with herbal medicine. I decided to try it, and now I’m happy I did because herbal medicine has proven to be the solution for herpes and other STDs/STIs. If you’re looking for a cure, contact Dr. Akhere Herbal Home at +2347085994115 or visit his website to learn more about his products. Good luck to everyone!
