In this podcast, the host discusses the importance of maintaining a healthy microbial ecosystem both internally and externally, with guest speaker Kiran Krishnan, a leading researcher on all aspects of the microbiome. They discuss how the skin and gut microbiomes communicate with each other and greatly impact general health. Particular emphasis was placed on a concept called 'Leaky Skin' - an imbalance of skin microbes which can lead to chronic inflammation and contribute to various diseases. Kiran also explained how transient, quorum-sensing microbes can help rebalance the skin’s ecosystem, thereby reducing the likelihood of leaky skin. The benefits of ingesting prebiotics and probiotics as well as the negative effects of antibiotics and certain diets on the skin and gut health were also discussed.
