Episode Details

Join me and my husband Vinnie as we react to the Netflix documentary "Hack Your Health: The Secrets of Your Gut." We're dissecting the pros and cons of this 'life-changing' documentary (as my husband called it).

From the intriguing insights and studies to the eyebrow-raising moments where Vinnie thought a warning should be displayed (or the rating changed to 'R'), we're dishing out our honest opinions.

Whether you're a health enthusiast or looking to learn more about your gut, and want to know if 'Hack Your Health' is worth your time, tune in as we reveal our honest and unfiltered thoughts to each other on this episode from the perspective of a registered dietitian + my husband (representing the average Joe).
