Episode Details

“All over our body—in our gut, on the skin, and in the mouth—we not only have bacteria, but we also have fungi. Imagine them playing together in a sandbox. Sometimes their play helps us, but if they’re imbalanced, we’re in big trouble.”

Leading microbiome researcher, Mahmoud Ghannoum, Ph.D., joins Jason Wachob to discuss the mycobiome, how it differs from our microbiome, and the best ways to optimize it, plus:

*How garlic saved him from the Gulf War

*How bacteria and fungi can create digestive plaque

*How to stay healthy while traveling

*The best “superstar” foods for gut health
