1067. Become a Fatigue Fighting Machine:...

Heal Squad
About this episode

Hey, Heal Squad! This Throwback Thursday, we’re joined by Dr. Steven Gundry—cardiothoracic surgeon, gut health expert, and author of The Energy Paradox.


Dr. Gundry breaks down how leaky gut is at the root of modern-day fatigue, what foods are quietly disrupting your energy, and why simply popping anti-inflammatory supplements isn’t the answer. He shares surprising truths about fruit, smoothies, and grains (yup, even the healthy ones) and teaches us how to “seal the border” of the gut for real, lasting healing.


You’ll also hear how gut buddies and postbiotics might be the energy-boosting allies you didn’t know you needed—and why your farts could actually be a good sign. No, really!
