Gut Health, Mood & Longevity Hacks: Rewire Your Metabolism with Martin Pytela

Diane Randall, M.A., CHC, AADP Season 3 Episode 54

In this episode of Plant Based Curious, I sat down with functional medicine expert Martin Pytela to uncover the hidden connections between your gut, mood, and metabolism. We dive deep into why wheat can be as addictive as heroin, how your ancestors’ diet holds the key to optimal health, and a simple 2-meal test to discover whether carbs or fats work best for YOUR body. Martin also shares his top longevity hack (hint: it’s not what you’d expect) and why 75% of mood-related prescriptions could be avoided with the right food choices. If you’ve ever struggled with bloating, fatigue, or emotional eating, this conversation is your roadmap to healing—starting with your next meal.
