Could smaller desserts help immunity? Dr. Matt Cook #275
It turns out of all the things you can do to protect yourself from illness, one of them is have smaller puddings. This is a small disaster as I do like a pudding, as you’ll hear, but Dr. Matt Cook goes over some of the research about blood sugar levels and immunity that could mean smaller desserts for me in future. Also on this podcast we talk antibody testing, sorting out the gut, and whether a miracle supplement that is supposed to heal the junctions in your gut is worth it. First a disclaimer… please don’t start any new regime without consulting your medical practitioner. If you think you are suffering from coronavirus you must get the appropriate medical advice, as Dr Cook advocates a number of times in this podcast. Dr. Matt Cook runs a functional medicine clinic called BioReset Medical, and is one of the world’s top experts in the area of natural health and immunity.
