Dr. Will Bulsiewicz: Why Your Gut Is the Key to Better Health—and How You’re Damaging It Every Day

SuperLife with Darin Olien

Did you know that your gut health impacts nearly every aspect of your well-being? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, a gastroenterologist and author of Fiber Fueled, to uncover how modern diets are damaging our gut and what we can do to reverse the effects.

Dr. Will explains the importance of fiber in feeding our gut microbiome and why processed foods are wreaking havoc on our digestive health. From boosting immunity to improving mental clarity, we dive into how nurturing your gut with plant-based, fiber-rich foods can improve your health.

We also explore the simple changes you can make in your diet and lifestyle to support your gut health and reduce inflammation and why these shifts are crucial in today’s world of processed and convenience foods.

As an expert in gut health and nutrition, Dr. Will Bulsiewicz has helped countless people restore their gut function and regain control of their health through practical, evidence-based advice. His passion for plant-based nutrition and deep knowledge of the microbiome will empower you to take better care of your gut—and, by extension, your whole body.
