We constantly talk about gut bacteria, probiotics, and the microbiome. But what about the protective layer in which all these processes take place?

In this episode of HEALTHWISE, Nils Behrens talks with gastroenterologist Prof. Dr. Martin Storr about why the intestinal mucosa plays a central role in our intestinal barrier – and why focusing solely on individual strains of bacteria isn't enough for gut health.

Because between what you eat and your body lies a complex system of microbiome, mucus layer, and intestinal wall.

But what keeps this system in balance? How important is fiber really? Does sauerkraut have to contain live cultures? What are the benefits of pre-, pro-, and postbiotics? And how useful are the now-popular microbiome stool tests?

Prof. Dr. Martin Storr puts into perspective what we actually know today – and where more is promised about the gut than science can currently say for sure.

🦠 Learn why gut health is much more than just a "good microbiome."

🛡️ Understand the role of the intestinal lining and the intestinal barrier.
