Ever wondered how ancient wisdom can seamlessly blend with modern healing to create a balanced life?

In this episode of Rooted in Wellness, I’m joined by Dr. Mary Pardee who blends ancient wisdom with modern healing practices to transform your gut health for overall well-being.

Dr. Pardee dives into the underlying reasons for poor gut health and how grounding meditation, mindfulness and community can be crucial in the healing process – as well as the importance of understanding the gut-brain axis and microbiome connection and how stress and environment impact your gut health.

We also discuss the practical tips on optimizing gut health through nutrition and how to Integrate Western and Eastern medicine for a holistic approach to healthcare.

Dr. Mary Pardee is a Functional Medicine doctor who specializes in gut-brain health. Her number one priority is to be a doctor who listens, is empathetic, and finds the root cause. She’s also the founder of Modern Med clinic here in LA, has a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine, is a Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner, and has a Bachelor of Science in Human Nutrition.
