Ask The Doctor: Gut Health Edition—Eliminating Bloat & Constipation, The Best Supplements, Nourishing Your Microbiome and MUCH More with Will Bulsiewicz, MD
Listen now
Description
This is the third edition of Ask the Doctor, where I ask functional medicine doctors a ton of questions in a single episode so you can reap the benefits of all of their knowledge (check out the first episode, featuring Dr. Will Cole talking about inflammation, hormone balance, birth control, and more, here, and the second episode, which features  Dr. Ellen Vora in the most comprehensive conversation about anxiety ever, here). This episode is all about gut health, and features the amazing Will Bulsiewicz, MD, known as Dr. B, the Gut Health MD. Dr. B is a board-certified gastroenterologist, a graduate of Georgetown University School of Medicine and was chief medical resident at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and chief gastroenterology fellow at the University of North Carolina Hospitals. He's authored more than twenty articles in the top American gastroenterology journals, and he just released his very first book, Fiber Fueled.  This episode is SO comprehensive—I tried to ask Will basically every question about keeping your gut health, including:  * How alcohol consumption impacts the gut microbiome * The best type of alcohol for gut health * The cause of acid reflux and how to deal with it * The best supplements for gut health (and the ones that aren’t worth your money) * The number one thing you can do to help nurture a healthy microbiome * The sneaky common beverage that  causes a LOT of bloating * The best type of diet for gut health * Is collagen good for your gut? * Is coffee good for your gut? * Are food sensitivity tests worth the money? * Does apple cider vinegar actually do anything for gut health? * The best type of tea for gut health * The types of herbs for gut health * Is cooked food or raw food better for gut health? * The one gut health mistake everyone makes * Exactly hat to do when you know you're going to eat a bad-for-you-meal * The connection between gut health and hangovers * What everyone gets wrong about FODMAPs * And so much more! You can find out more about Dr. B at theplantfedgut.com.
