About this episode
Many of us in functional medicine understand the importance of a healthy GI tract to prevent and reverse underlying chronic conditions. Dr. Peter Kozlowski not only practices and teaches these principles to patients, he also wrote a best-selling book called “Unfunc Your Gut” where he explains the interconnection between the gut and systemic health in a simplified, light-hearted, and engaging way.
In this episode, we get Dr. Koz’s take on the gut immune response, dietary influences, and the vital role of mental-emotional-spiritual health.
