One Thing with Dr. Adam Rinde

One core tenant in natural medicine is that “All Disease Begins in The Gut”. This is a statement that might be debatable however what is true is that digestive health is a core component of prevention and management of chronic disease.  I speak with functional medicine nutritional legend Dr. Elizabeth Lipski on Digestive Wellness in this episode. We cover numerous topics such as nutrition as medicine, diets for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, the 5-R model for gut healing, and the DIGIN model for strategizing how to balance underlying factors in digestive wellness.  In addition, we discover mind/body aspects of disease and wellness. See links below for references from the episode.
