Description
What would I do if I could go back to the day, I was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease and start over with everything I know now?
In this video, I break down the gut-health framework I wish I had when my intestines were inflamed, ulcerated, and on the verge of requiring major surgery. We cover surprising science on the gut-brain axis, vagus nerve signaling, breathwork, stress reduction, time-restricted feeding, fermented foods, probiotics, microplastics…
Then we dive into what I consider the ultimate peptide stack for gut health: BPC-157, Larazotide, and KPV. You'll learn how each works, what role it may play in supporting gut barrier integrity, inflammation, and tissue repair, and how I think about combining them.
Whether you're dealing with inflammatory bowel disease, leaky gut, digestive symptoms, or simply want a deeper understanding of gut biology, this video is designed to give you practical tools backed by science.
