The Fabulous Pharmacist’s gut health advice and why magic bullets don’t exist

“Nothing has changed in terms of how to live a healthy lifestyle which is diet, exercise, sleep, those three things remain as really important factors in how to best live a healthy life,” explains Laura Dowling, aka The Fabulous Pharmacist on the latest episode of That Gut Feeling, the podcast series that answers the critical questions surrounding gut health.

Laura talks to Jonathan Healy about vitamins, supplements and pills and why there really is no magic bullet except to live healthily and look after ourselves properly.

“People want a magic bullet,” she says on the podcast. “They want to know what can I do to lose weight, or what can I do to have more energy? They’d like to be able to take a pill to do so but ultimately it does hark back to those three staples of diet, exercise, sleep.”

Throughout the series, Jonathan will chat with leading Irish and International experts, including Professor Luke O Neill (Biochemistry in the School of Biochemistry and Immunology at Trinity College Dublin), Fabulous Pharmacist Laura Dowling BSc (Pharm) MPSI, and former Ireland and Munster star Peter Stringer (also, Army Ranger Bootcamp victor from RTÉ’s Ultimate Hell Week – The Professionals).
