You guys have been hearing about Just Thrive for the past month while we’ve been focusing on gut health, so I wanted to talk to Tina Anderson, one of their co-founders and CEO’s so you guys could get an inside look at both the founders and at the unique way the brand is structured (based on education!)
A few updates before we get started: this week on the blog I shared a super fun Harry Potter and Halloween-themed baking recipe for Pumpkin Crumb Cake Muffins! AND I’ve finally opened up a few slots for the fall and holidays for one-on-one, personalized nutrition services. So whether you’re interested in getting to the bottom of some gut health and digestion issues, or you’re looking for some support on healing your relationship with food and your body through the holidays, send me an email (realfoodwithdana@gmail) or use the contact form on my website!
On today’s episode, Tina shares more about her journey from working as a lawyer, to working for a pharmaceutical company, to starting a natural health supplement brand! We’re discussing how she discovered, from the inside, some of the shady things about the pharmeceutical industry, why most probiotics on the market don’t work, leaky gut, and the top probiotic myths!
We discuss:
- What it was like to work behind the scenes in the pharmeceutical industry & what made Tina want to leave
- Why she became so passionate about gut health in particular
- What led Tina to believe that most of the probiotics on the market don’t work – and why brands can get away putting products out that don’t work
- All about leaky gut
- The top probiotic myths
- The best way to start taking a new probiotic, and what you can expect to happen when taking one.
