About Dr. Shaina Cahill:
Dr. Shaina Cahill, Ph.D., Director of Medical Communications and Affairs at Novel Biome holds a Neuroscience Ph.D. from the University of British Columbia. She is passionate about medical education, scientific communication, and alternative medicines harnessing the body’s innate systems and how aging, exercise and diet play a role in our health.
What We Discuss In This Episode:
Dr. Shaina Cahill discusses her background in neuroscience and how that led her to focus on the gut microbiome and its connection to aging. She explains how the gut microbiome changes as we age, becoming less diverse and more inflammatory, and how this can impact brain health, immunity, and overall wellbeing. Maintaining a healthy, diverse gut microbiome through diet, exercise, and sleep may help slow the negative effects of aging.
Dr. Shaina provides an overview of different gut health interventions. She notes that while probiotics can provide temporary benefits, making lasting changes requires focusing on prebiotics like fiber and fermented foods. She also discusses the potential of fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs) to treat various age-related diseases by replacing an unhealthy gut microbiome with a healthier one.
Dr. Shaina comments on the shift towards more natural and holistic approaches in the medical field, including the increasing regulation and clinical trials of gut-focused therapies. She highlights exciting research on using FMTs to potentially reverse symptoms of conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, and notes the challenges of navigating the regulatory landscape, especially the differences between Canada and the US.
We finish up with emphasizing the importance of proactive gut health management for overall wellbeing and longevity.
