Think calling someone hormonal is an insult? Think again. Every single person on the planet is FILLED with hormones (yes, that includes men!). But some people's bodies do a better job regulating them — and other people need help.Sadly, many "routine" practices in women's health care (particularly ones relating to hormones) are often misguided, shortsighted... even archaic.Fortunately, my guest, Dr. Jolene Brighten, is working to change that.Dr. Brighten is a speaker, author, nutritional biochemist, and naturopathic medical doctor who focuses on women's endocrine health. She has helped thousands of women address the root causes of chronic pain, acne, anxiety, and other symptoms — helping them regain control of their health.Dr. Brighten is also an expert on fertility, Post-Birth Control Syndrome, and the long-term effects associated with hormonal birth control.During this episode, we'll discuss the long-term effects of using synthetic birth control and how many doctors are inadvertently hurting their female patients.We'll also discuss Dr. Brighten's holistic approach to women's health care and what YOU can do to balance your hormones at any age.(Husbands, boyfriends, dads, and brothers — you'll want to listen to this too! The more you know about the women in your life, the better.)Dr. Brighten has some amazing insights on how to feel your very best, so you don't want to miss this.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

By now you've probably heard all about how toxic plant proteins — called lectins — can wreak havoc on your gut and even cause serious autoimmune diseases.But ever since I published my best-seller The Plant Paradox back in 2017, people have been asking me this one question:"Where did your idea about lectins come from?"Well, I didn't discover lectins. In fact, the science behind lectins is over 100 years-old!But I was one of the first people to theorize that lectins are THE major culprit behind so many of our modern ailments.So on today's episode of the Dr. Gundry Podcast, I'm going to take you on a journey of discovery. I'll explain the origins of my lectin theory of disease, share useful tips and tricks for cutting lectins out of your diet, and discuss the case studies that helped solidify my research.You're also going to hear me answer some of my fiercest critics and address the serious scientific scholarship underpinning everything I've written about lectins.

When it comes to healing, most of us are willing to try whatever we can to make ourselves and our loved ones feel better.And many of these non-traditional methods are VERY controversial — especially something called energy healing.While these practices are often dismissed as New Age nonsense or merely as placebo, Dr. Jill Blakeway — my guest on today's episode — makes a compelling case that energy healing can actually transform the healing process.Dr. Blakeway has a brand new book out called Energy Medicine: The Science and Mystery of Healing where she talks to practitioners, scientists, and patients about what's REALLY going on during an energy healing session.If you're not already a believer in energy medicine, after hearing Dr. Blakeway address the skeptics, you may come away convinced yourself.On this episode of the show, we'll also talk about the science behind energy medicine, about Dr. Blakeway's ample experience as a practitioner and recipient of energy healing, and about the steps YOU can take to practice energy healing yourself.

Stress is the WORST.It affects your mood, your sleep, and even your gut bacteria.

For many of us, running a single mile sounds tough — never mind running an entire marathon. Well, my guest has done that, and more. In fact, he's run the equivalent of 172 marathons — in a row!On this episode of the Dr. Gundry Podcast, I speak to ultra marathon runner, author, and motivational speaker Charlie Engle.Charlie has run 4,500 miles across the Sahara Desert, and spent 16 months in federal prison — but considers his more than two decades of sobriety as one of his biggest feats to date.He released his memoir, Running Man, three years ago, and has touched countless lives with his story of courage, perseverance, and redemption.We discuss his struggles and setbacks with addiction and incarceration, and how running helped him overcome adversity and forge ahead. We also chat about his incredible, record-breaking treks around the globe, and how YOU can become a runner too... even if you hate running!
