C-Section vs. Natural Birth: What It Actually Does to Your Baby's Microbiome

Joy McCarthy, holistic nutritionist and mother, breaks down how the gut microbiome is seeded before birth and why the decisions made during pregnancy, delivery, and early feeding have lifelong implications for your child's skin, immune system, and overall health. We cover how vaginal birth versus C-section delivery affects microbiome colonization, what to eat and avoid during pregnancy to support your baby's gut, why fragrance and laundry detergent matter more than most parents realize, and what actually happens when a child raised on whole foods is exposed to refined sugar.
