Eat for Your Microbiome | Desiree Nielsen on Fiber, Gut Health & Fighting Chronic Disease
Episode 244
Wednesday, 6 May, 2026
First released as audio only. Re-edited and now available in video and audio. In lifestyle medicine, food is not a side conversation. It's the conversation. This week I speak with Desiree Nielsen— registered dietitian and plant-based recipe developer. Desiree Nielsen and I discuss what doctors miss when they skip the nutrition conversation, how gut microbiome health connects to long COVID and chronic disease, and why dietary fiber — not protein — is the most important nutrient right now. We break down the science of anti-inflammatory eating, plant diversity, omega-3s, and the Mediterranean diet, with a rapid-fire review of coffee, avocado, salmon, oat milk, soy milk, walnuts, and cinnamon. Desiree shares a gut-friendly, plant-forward eating that is never about deprivation — it's about flavor, function, and long-term wellbeing.
