Hello, it's episode 380 of the keto diet podcast. My name is Leanne Vogel. I'm a holistic nutritionist and functional blood chemistry specialist.

I've also been doing the keto low carb thing since before it was cool, like way, way, way back when.

There was only two of us talking about it. And now I feel like keto has morphed into this crazy world that is just so incredibly confusing.

And also, everyone just talks about macros or that's like a huge portion of it.

And it's been really important to me over the last couple of years to bring in more conversations.

Not just about does it fit your macros, which I've never been to keen on.

But just how do you live a low carb lifestyle long term while also benefiting every aspect of your health?

And so I wanted to have my friend on Ashley Soe to talk about the gut.

And Ashley and I go way back without even knowing it. I followed her for quite some time.

She's brilliant. And I guess she'd been following me for some time.

And so we both kind of like super stocked each other on Instagram. You know how it is.

Those friends that you have on social media. And we just started talking.

And I was like, Ashley needs to come on the show to chat with you guys.

She is a holistic nutritionist and herbalist specializing in chronic digestive issues.

Her clinic, the Burial Natural Health Center provides natural health care to Northern Ontario.

And her private practice helps clients all over the world restore their gut health.

She's a nerd for all things bacteria and botanicals and deeply passionate about using nutrition and plant medicine to restore health.

It's like I'm not even kidding Ashley. Like if you follow her on Instagram, I highly suggest just going to at Ashley Soe Health.

If you're unsure how to spell that, it'll be in the show notes. No problem.

And just follow her along and you'll quickly see like she's got to go on. She knows what's up.

And if you have questions about your gut, she's the one to go to brilliant.

I'm so excited to share today's episode where we're talking about bacteria and parasites, each pylori.
