If we look back at the last 200 years, we can see that human evolution was not designed to deal with the drugs, chemicals, and pollutants that are part of the modern day world. This is why it is so important to support liver health for our overall well-being.   The liver is basically our processing plant for toxins. And it all comes back to gut health - when we have negative bacteria in our gut, that directly affects our liver detoxification pathways.   I’m joined by Kyal Van Der Leest, founder of LVLUP Health. We’re discussing everything you need to know about how to optimize your liver health, and how it connects to the health of your gut. We also dive into the skin issues that can arise from the body releasing toxins, and how if your detox pathways aren't optimized, your skin is ultimately not going to look as good as it could.   Kyal Van Der Leest is a nutritionist, naturopath, and functional health coach turned formulator who now runs LVLUP Health. He founded LVLUP Health to create powerful cutting edge supplement tools that people could use to improve their health using the unique formulations that combine orally bioavailable peptides with naturopathic botanicals and nutritional supplement ingredients.    What we discuss: 00:02:29 - Why all health begins in the gut  00:04:35 - The different phases of detoxification  00:11:25 - Are detox products beneficial?  00:19:58 - The Complete Liver Complex 00:26:24 - How TUDCA works 00:33:29 - How releasing toxins can result in skin issues  00:40:44 - How AHK supports the culture networks of the skin 00:44:00 - Botox-like peptides  00:50:21 - How Botox can have an effect on your liver  01:02:28 - How the peptide Svetinorm is beneficial for the liver  Key Takeaways: Svetinorm is a bio-regulator peptide that has beneficial effects on the liver, such as supporting protein synthesis.
