Hello and welcome to another episode of the Perception Podcast with me your host Caroline Partridge. In this episode I get the opportunity to talk to the Exiled Medic himself Fabian Kowallik. Fabian is gaining a huge following on Instagram as a detox specialist in the field of holistic health. Having come from a family of doctors and training as a medic himself, he decided to try a different path when the conventional treatments for his chronic conditions failed him. During our conversation Fabian deep dives into the world of parasites, our gut microbiome and the critical importance of the sun, in maintaining health, as well as revealing the real reason why we're told to put our phones on flight mode on aircraft. Please join me as we look at life through a different lens.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Fabian has struggled with gut issues for most of his early life and was applying everything he had learnt from doctors and also his own medical training but nothing helped. He realised through his own research that he needed to address the root cause of his gut problems or they would never be resolved. Seed oils aren’t as healthy as we are led to believe and often things that are good for us have been demonised by the food industry. There is a lot of misinformation about food and a vast majority of this is coming from the food industry Look at people’s lifestyles in terms of diet from 70 years ago, our aim should be going back to basics and looking to nature to be healthy.  the majority of ailments are linked to our diet. Steroids severely impact the function of your immune system, and although may appear to help initially they can cause serious issues further down the line. Parasites are more prevalent in humans than many people realise and need to be considered as a cause of a variety of issues and symptoms from rashes to gastrointestinal illnesses. Most doctors don’t have the tools or the time to be able to tell patients to overhaul their diet or to get to the root cause of problems. BEST MOMENTS "Autoimmune therapy is a thing and we are slowly learning how to get rid of allergies” “We seem to be living in a world full of misinformation” “Think about what you’re eating and drinking and putting into your body” “Go back to nature” “Maybe it’s more than just calories that matter in food” “We have such a warped view of what healthy living is”   ABOUT THE GUEST Blog Fabian Kowallik, also known as the "Exiled Medic", is a naturopath, herbalist and holistic health coach who left the medical world and Big Pharma behind to seek the truth about health.  Fabian now teaches alternative ways of healing the body by focusing on the root causes of disease, and believes that going back to ancestral and natural ways of living is the key to living a healthy life.
