When I meet Dr Megan Rossi, she makes me feel instantly at ease, which lends the old adage “trust your gut” a reasonable weight. Despite the fact that we’re discussing what many people might consider taboo subjects – gas, bowel movements and depression – Dr Rossi is unabashed and incredibly generous with her extensive knowledge. So much so that I’m enjoying this conversation about bloating after eating more than I anticipated.
Known as The Gut Health Doctor, Rossi has become one of the most trusted voices in nutrition science. With her research, books, Smart Strain probiotics and snack brand Bio&Me, her mission is to spotlight what she calls “a pretty unglamorous organ” and show us how it could be the secret to feeling better, looking better and even living longer.
