In this episode, I sit down with C. Vivek Lal, MD, FAAP, a physician-scientist and the founder & CEO of Resbiotic, to explore the incredible connection between our gut microbiome and respiratory health.

Dr. Lal shares how his clinical work with premature infants inspired a deeper dive into gut-lung science, ultimately leading to the development of Resbiotic—a science-first wellness brand that’s bridging the gap between clinical research and everyday health.

What really struck me in this conversation was Vivek’s blend of curiosity, care, and credibility. He’s not just creating a product—he’s on a mission to help people breathe easier, live better, and understand how their gut health plays a role in it all. If you’re interested in functional wellness, biotech innovation, or just want to understand your body a bit better, this one is for you.

Here are a few highlights from our conversation:

* The gut-lung axis: what it is and why it matters

* How a NICU doctor became a CPG founder

* Why Resbiotic leads with clinical credibility, not marketing fluff

* The challenge of translating deep science into consumer products

* How education and transparency are building trust in a skeptical market

Join me, Ramon Vela, as I listen to the episode and discover how science, storytelling, and heart are driving the next wave of health and wellness innovation.

1 Commerce: https://1-commerce.com/story-of-a-brand

Scaling a DTC brand becomes harder the bigger you grow, especially when you’re limited to selling on just one channel. While you’re focused on day-to-day ops, your competitors are unlocking marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart, and even retail shelf space—and capturing customers you’re missing. That’s where 1-Commerce comes in.

They help high-growth brands expand beyond their sites, handle end-to-end fulfillment, and scale through a revenue-share model that means they only win when you do.
