Summary

We’re following all of the gut health advice on the internet and our guts feel maybe worse than ever. We’re bloated, we’re constipated, AND all of the videos we’re watching are contradicting each other. Do we have leaky gut? Should we be fibermaxxing? Why does the fiber make us fart so much? On the Liz Moody Podcast, we're always looking for the real science that can actually change our lives, so today I'm joined by Dr. Karan Rajan, an NHS surgeon, who has worked with the UN, World Health Organization, and British Red Cross.
