The Connection Between Gut Health And Our Immunity System W/ Dr. Vincent Pedre
- Or listen in:
Greetings, SuperFriends!
Today we are joined by Dr. Vincent Pedre. Dr. Pedre is a functional medicine-certified doctor, and the author of the best-selling book Happy Gut.
Now, I wanted to have Dr. Pedre on the show, not because we haven't talked about gut health in the past, but because I wanted to understand the link between gut health and immunity – a very important topic during the Covid-19 pandemic.
I wanted to understand what is the connection between the microbiome, something that we've talked about with regards to mood, obesity, and overall health, and our overall immunity – which, as it turns out, is very related.
I learned a lot in this episode, and I'm sure you will as well! Enjoy!
