What a way to close season 2! I am SO excited to share this episode with you because we are speaking to none other than Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, MD MSCI. “Dr. B” is a plant-based board certified gastroenterologist, gut health expert, and New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled.
In the show today, we are going to share so much actionable information to help you strengthen and heal your gut inspired by the book—including, how to figure out (and improve!) your food intolerances. Yep, even histamine intolerance.
As a plant-based dietitian with my own book on gut health coming out this May, I know I’m biased, but I absolutely think you are going to want to run out and preorder Dr. B’s book asap—especially with all of its delicious recipes and revolutionary info. So let’s dive in…
