GLP-1, Gut Health, and Food Sensitivities: A Comprehensive Guide | Episode 21
Manage episode 474709127 series 3652230
In this episode of The Health Pulse Podcast, we explore the powerful connection between GLP-1—a key gut hormone—and its role in digestion, inflammation, immunity, and chronic health issues. What Hippocrates once said—“all disease begins in the gut”—is now backed by science.
Learn how GLP-1 supports blood sugar control, appetite regulation, and gut barrier integrity, helping prevent issues like leaky gut and systemic inflammation. We also examine how food sensitivities and gut imbalances disrupt GLP-1 function, leading to symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and skin problems.
We’ll cover:
- Common triggers like gluten, dairy, and additives
- The role of the microbiome and compounds like butyrate
- How advanced tests like GI-MAP and GI Effects reveal hidden imbalances
- Natural ways to support GLP-1 through diet, supplements, and lifestyle
🎧 Tune in to discover how your gut may hold the key to clearer thinking, better digestion, and stronger immunity.
