An Evidence-Based Approach to Optimal Health
We're starting a challenge right after Labor Day Weekend to kick off fall and set you up for a healthy holiday season!
Whether it’s keto, paleo, Whole30, WW (formerly known as Weight Watchers), or targeting calories, carbs, macros, or the Peanut Butter Diet (yes, that’s a thing) – people approach any challenge with vigor, but there are so many rules to follow.
When you choose your diet based on what you’re told to remove and restrict, your relationship with food suffers and your understanding of what’s healthy becomes severely skewed.
The diets listed above are not only restrictive, they all fail to focus on what’s truly important: YOUR GUT. Yes, a couple of them might claim gut healing as a side-benefit, but they simply don’t have the science to back it up.
That’s where I come in, and that’s what Microbiome 21 is about at its core. Because your gut microbiome is the core of your health. These 21 days are not just about shedding some pounds and collecting a badge of endurance. This challenge is about gaining energy, long term vitality, learning habits you can actually stick with, and understanding that the health of every system in your body starts in the gut.
If you know anything about me, it’s that I come with receipts - AKA science-backed research. There is nothing anecdotal in Microbiome 21. Each day of this challenge, every habit I will teach you, and all of the knowledge you will gain is all based on nutritional science.
Microbiome 21 isn’t about what you have to take away. It’s a science-backed, evidence-based approach to optimal health — and frankly, if I do say so myself, it’s a heck of a lot of fun. Most importantly, this isn’t a 21-days-and-you're-done kinda deal. Unlike some of the most popular diets, Microbiome 21 will demonstrate exactly how to establish habits and set a foundation for lasting health.
(Plus, you’ll track your experience from the beginning and when you start seeing positive changes — I’m talking within the first week — that’s when the real fun begins.)
Once you go through Microbiome 21, it’ll be there for you to return to if you ever need it. But if I’ve done my job right, you’ll never again need to start from scratch to get yourself back on track.
Maybe it’s been a long time coming, maybe you’ve been inspired by recent world events, or maybe you’re just ready to let science lead the way — any way you swing it, the time for your personal health revolution is NOW.

Change is Possible in 21 Days
"My husband and I started 2022 the best possible way by signing up for Dr. B’s 21-Day Microbiome 21 Challenge. We’ve been vegan for five years and WFPB for the past 2 ½, but after spending so much time in lockdown, we really felt we had let things slip. The booze was back, hash browns were a regular for breakfast and we were eating a lot more processed foods and oils than we had in a good while.
In short, we felt like crap.
Three weeks later, things couldn’t be more different.
No alcohol, no fizzy drinks, no processed foods. Our energy levels have gone through the roof, so has our motivation and mindset is so much more relaxed and positive.
I feel like a whole new person! I learned SO much - such as immune conditions like fibromyalgia and coeliac disease start in your GUT - and it has given me so much hope and control in recovering both from fibro AND myocarditis. We average between 35-45 plants a day and will never go back to any other way of eating.
Everything we have learned and implemented has set us up for life.
I have learned more about nutrition and what causes and heals disease in three weeks than I did in my entire Cornell Plant Based Nutrition course!"
Karen
The challenge was worthwhile and helpful even though I’ve been plant-based for 20+ years.
Clare
I just finished watching the Day 4 video and it definitely hit home! It has never once occurred to me that such things can have that effect on our guts!
Marie
I’m back on track and I love it. I do feel so much better and having accountability helps to stay on track!
Libby
Down 9lbs and 2.5 inches off my belly. Still a long way to go, but off to a great start. Every meal, I stop and ask myself if there is another plant I can add and I can usually find one or two. Sprouts are now growing and I am working on adding in fermented foods at least every other day.
Lilly
Thank you, Dr. B, for all the wisdom you imparted to us. The 21 days flew by fast! I am now a little more knowledgeable about the different types of poop! I lost 6lbs and feel great!! No bloating and no gas!! Yeah!!
Linda
When I started Dr. B’s 21-day challenge, I was having attacks of GERD and IBS two or three times a week and felt lethargic all the time. I have now been 6 weeks without any gut issues at all! I’m now eating a completely WFPB, no oil diet. I am eating as much high FODMAP foods as I want and feel great! No symptoms whatsoever.
It’s been completely life changing!
