How to fix your gut!

A note from Paul: Throughout my training and practice as a physician, I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn’t helping people lead better lives. Now that I’ve realized this, I’ve become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you’ll join me on this journey. In today’s episode, Paul does a deep dive on gut health. He shares how he believes humans can optimize their gut health, and about common gut issues such as SIBO, IBS, GERD, and gallstones: what he believes causes them, and how to fix them. 00:02:25 Podcast begins 00:03:23 Vegan malnutrition 00:06:28 A preview of Paul’s most recent bloodwork 00:07:56 A breakdown of the gut 00:11:03 Pauls criteria of a healthy gut/healthy individual 00:14:55 Western medicine’s criteria for a healthy gut 00:16:28 The problem with vegetable fiber and benefits of fermented foods 00:28:13 Nature’s effects on the gut 00:30:00 The problem with the mainstream analysis of gut bacteria 00:38:58 What damages the gut? 00:41:43 Thoughts on gluten 00:46:58 Thoughts on lectins 00:49:48 Thoughts on emulsifiers, processed sugars, and seed oils 0:55:03 Thoughts on Stevia 0:57:28 Gut conditions (SIBO, IBS, IBD, GERD) 1:01:03 Gallstones and choline deficiency 1:02:43 Healing the gut through sun exposure and diet Sponsors: Heart & Soil: www.heartandsoil.co Animal-Based Gathering: https://www.animalbasedgathering.com
