The microbiome undergoes a radical transformation during massive weight loss. The result has a profound impact on your health.

Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, gastroenterologist and New York Times bestselling author, explains the changes during this episode of The Exam Room Podcast.

Dr. B talks about what likely happened to the microbiome of "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll when he lost 280 pounds. Chuck’s old diet was an astonishing 10,000 calories from fast food per day.

The chronic stomach issues that had plagued Chuck for years are no longer an issue and it has to do with more than just the fact that he's no longer 420 pounds.

But the healthy changes can be experienced by anyone who loses even a little bit of weight.

On This Episode:

- Stomach composition after weight loss

- Best foods for weight loss

- Healing foods for the gut

- Gut sensitivities

- Fad diets and the microbiome

- Cheat meals and the microbiome

- Live viewer questions

Chuck also details a meta-analysis showing that replacing animal protein with plant protein can reduce the risk of diabetes by 20%.
