Symptoms like bloating, brain fog, and digestive issues can be frustrating, especially when there isn't a clear explanation for what's causing them. That uncertainty can make simple answers feel especially appealing.

In the June 1st episode of Being Well, Dr. Trisha Pasricha
and I discuss the gut-brain connection, including how the gut influences mood and mental health, why GI symptoms are often misunderstood or dismissed, and what the research actually says about probiotics, leaky gut, detoxification, and the microbiome.

I'm not a clinician, and what I say on this channel should not be taken as medical advice.
