Gut Instincts: Josh Dech Explores the Food, Mood, and Brain Connection
In this captivating episode, I had the incredible opportunity to sit down and converse with Josh Dech, an expert in the field of gut health. Together, we unravel the profound influence that gut health exerts over our focus, memory, emotions, and overall well-being.
Josh shares his personal journey, which sparked his passionate pursuit of unraveling the enigmas concealed within the gut. We explore the limitations of Western medicine, emphasizing the paramount importance of adopting holistic and functional approaches that address the root causes of health issues rather than merely alleviating symptoms.
But that's not all – we delve into the marvelous benefits of digestive enzymes in facilitating better digestion, particularly during the transition to a plant-based lifestyle. We also expose the hidden perils lurking within processed plant-based foods, emphasizing the importance of scrutinizing labels to make informed choices.
A resounding theme throughout our conversation is the empowerment of taking control of our own health. We encourage you to navigate the labyrinth of bewildering health messaging with a discerning eye and a sense of self-determination.
As we draw our conversation to a close, we couldn't help but share a special mention of Josh's own podcast, "ReversAbLE: The Ultimate Gut Health Podcast," where you can continue your exploration of the fascinating realm of gut health and visit online community https://josh-dech-fitness-inc.getrewardful.com/signup
