Live Beyond the Norms The Hidden Signals Between Your Gut, Brain, and Immune System | Dr. Steven Gundry
Our microbiome isn’t just digesting food; it’s directing our mood, our focus, and even the way we age. Dr. Steven Gundry explains how lipopolysaccharides (LPS), lectins, and damaged gut walls quietly drive inflammation, brain fog, and autoimmune flare-ups, and how re-training your immune system through smarter food choices can reverse these effects.
Dr. Gundry shares how a single patient changed his entire career from heart surgeon to health educator, why healing leaky gut is the real key to calming autoimmunity, and how reconnecting with soil organisms, root vegetables, and fermented foods can reprogram the gut-brain axis for longevity. We explore the science of the “gut buddies,” why cleanliness culture backfired, and how modern diets have broken our ancient symbiosis with microbes.
You’ll learn how to rebuild resilience, restore immune tolerance, and reclaim the clarity that comes when your brain and gut finally speak the same language.
"Our immune system cannot tell the difference between living bacteria and dead bacteria." - Dr. Steven Gundry
