The microbiome, longevity, sleep, wearables, supplements, getting to the root cause of health issues and optimizing for brain function with Gut Philosophy founder Elena Letyagina. (Episode #2) Elena Letyagina is a registered nutritional therapist and the founder of Gut Philosophy, a data-driven personalized nutritional practice. She began her career working in finance in London, but, during maternity leave, came to realize how unhappy she was, and how long hours and work stress were damaging her health. In one of the darkest periods of her life, Elena was prescribed a course of long-term antibiotics and steroid drops and told there was no other option. Elena didn’t give up. After finding out she had gluten intolerance, Elena began to learn about the huge importance of the gut microbiome, and how damaging antibiotics can be. She is now on a mission to educate and empower people about the role of gut health in overall wellbeing. She is acutely aware of how much the philosophy around nutrition and how standard practices of prescription and supplementation need to change. In her practice, Elena uses a range of functional and genetic testing as well as wearable devices to reinforce positive changes. Besides running gut philosophy Elena is the principal nutritionist at a London-based medical clinic. She is currently completing advanced training with the Institute of functional medicine and holds a qualification in nutritional therapy from the Institute for optimum nutrition. Elena is a member of the British Association for nutrition and lifestyle medicine BANT and is accredited by the complementary and natural health care council CNHC. Longevity is the area of Elena's special interest. Please Enjoy! --- If you enjoyed the podcast, I would love to hear from you so please leave a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes!
