The micro-biome with Dr Yug Varma

Send us a text

 This week I'm talking to Dr Yug Varma about the micro-biome.

As regular listeners will know I am very interested in the micro- and gut biome and there is no better person to speak to about this stuff than Dr Varma.

He has 10+ years of microbiome research experience including an extensive background in
bio-organic chemistry, microbiology, and synthetic biology. Dr. Varma received his scientific
training at several distinguished academic institutions, including Johns Hopkins University (PhD) and University of California, San Francisco. His scientific work has been published in many prestigious journals, including Nature.

In other words, this is THE guy to talk to about the micro-biome and I'm very grateful he gave up an hour of his valuable time to talk to me about this.

We discussed many things;

What the micro-biome is.

How our current haircare and washing routines are often working against it.

How taking care of your micro-biome is actually very simple and not at all expensive.

The causes of a lot of skin care problems and why soo many more parents and children are having eczema and acne.

Why a lot of skincare products that claim to have "pro-biotics" in them are just using the phrase for marketing purposes and you're actually just smearing yoghurt on your face.

And much, much more.
