About this episode
Tina Anderson used to work as in-house counsel for a pharmaceutical company – but, frustrated by the many abuses in the pharmaceutical industry, Tina decided to make a dramatic change to her life and career. She channeled her energy into learning all she could about disease prevention and good health maintenance, which led her to the often overlooked key to health (or disease): our gut. She also discovered that the majority of probiotics on the market simply don’t work. So, Tina teamed up with her husband and world-renowned probiotic expert Dr. Simon Cutting to create a unique supplement that uses superior probiotic strains identified by Dr. Cutting. The bacillus strains found in Just Thrive supplements are abundant environmental organisms that have evolved to be consumed by humans on a daily basis. They thrive in our digestive systems, performing critical functions such as developing the immune system, reducing inflammation, facilitating digestion, and producing important functional compounds like antioxidants. Our guts do a lot for us, and there’s only so much that a healthy diet and lifestyle can do if we’re not taking care of our guts – so, today, Tina is going to teach us how we can make our gut’s job a little bit easier.

I'm loving Organifi Gold, especially for my night time routine. It has turmeric, ginger, reishi, lemon balm, turkey tail and other rad superfoods, phytonutrients & pain-soothing herbs. My daily routine lately goes like this: in the morning, I add it to my nut milk smoothie. At night when I want to chill out, I make a golden latte. I add the power and a healthy fat like ghee, coconut, or grass-fed butter to hot water and voilá! Great warm elixir, really chills you out, gently detoxifies and tastes awesome.
