In this episode, I'm joined by triple board-certified gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz to dissect the "triad" of your gut microbes, your gut barrier, and your 70% of your immune system.

From why you should be "refrigerating your sourdough" to create metabolism-boosting resistant starch, to the "second meal effect" that keeps your blood sugar stable for hours, this episode is a tactical roadmap for long-term vitality. And don’t worry—we still make room for the "Thai noodles" because your health is a practice, not a prison. In this episode, you will learn: Why you truly can’t out-exercise a poor diet How the gut–immune–inflammation triad impacts midlife health What trials reveal about saturated fat, seed oils, and inflammation How fiber naturally boosts GLP-1 and stabilizes blood sugar The “second meal effect” and why beans are metabolic magic How short-chain fatty acids enhance insulin sensitivity and satiety Why resistant starch (cooled potatoes, rice) improves metabolic flexibility The truth about whole grains and inflammation Algae vs. fish-based omega-3s and what to look for in supplements Why capsule form, refrigeration, and quality control matter How to increase fiber without bloating Small, practical steps that build long-term gut, immune, and metabolic resilience …And much more!
