Hello Heal Squad! For today’s episode we are joined by Dr. Steven Gundry and we are learning all about the gut. For part 1 of our conversation, Dr. Gundry shares the story of a life-changing encounter with a patient he refers to as Big Ed and how this sparked his mission of teaching people to not need to see doctors by taking care of their gut. Dr. Gundry also gives us more insight into diseases like celiac and the surprising link between risk-takers and the bacteria toxoplasmosis. We learn more about what is being left out of the medical school classrooms due to pharmaceutical influence and the dos and don'ts of optimal gut health and the effect it has on every aspect of our lives. From leaky gut syndrome to the mind-boggling surface area of the gut, Dr. Gundry's expertise will motivate you to start taking your gut health seriously.

Make sure to come back for part 2 where we Dr. Gundry reveals some shocking realities about oat products, how to work with our gut, and sources for different prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics.
