Ep. 335: Dr. Will Bulsiewicz - The Plant Powered Plus Blueprint: Your Step-by-Step Path Out of Inflammation
PLANTSTRONG Podcast
Outro
Rip closes the episode, reiterates plant-based solutions for inflammation and plugs the book release & Ad break.
Inflammation is running rampant — and it’s not starting in your joints or your arteries. It’s starting in your gut.
This week, Rip is joined by world-renowned gut health expert Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, aka “Dr. B,” author of the book Plant Powered Plus. (Release Date: January 13, 2026) Together, they break down why chronic disease, fatigue, weight gain, autoimmune disorders, and even emotional burnout so often trace back to what’s happening inside your microbiome.
Dr. B reveals his powerful three-phase gut-healing plan, explains why fiber is the undisputed MVP of human health, and shows how plant diversity, fermentation, and polyphenol-rich foods can radically change your life — starting today.
But this episode goes deeper than food.
Rip and Dr. B explore the profound connection between emotional healing, spiritual wellness, and physical health, including Dr. B’s personal story of reconciling with his father and how unresolved trauma can live in the body.
This is not about perfection.
It’s about progress.
And it all starts with your next bite.
You’ll Hear:
- Why inflammation is a national pandemic — and how your gut is at the center of it.
- Dr. B’s three-phase approach to healing your microbiome and lowering chronic inflammation.
- Why fiber deficiency is fueling modern disease — and how to reverse it.
- The four nutrition “workhorses” of true plant-powered living.
- How polyphenols, fermented foods, and healthy fats supercharge gut health.
- The hidden dangers of the Western diet, hyper-palatable foods, plastics, and environmental toxins.
- How emotional and spiritual health directly influence your physical healing.
Your gut isn’t just digesting food — it’s shaping your immune system, your emotions, your energy, and your future.
Dr. B and Rip remind us that real healing doesn’t come from chasing symptoms.
It comes from changing the system — one fiber-rich, plant-powered meal at a time.
