Description

Heal Your Gut, Lower Inflammation, and Live Longer with guest expert Will Bulsiewicz, MD

While most of the wellness world is shouting about what to cut out, Dr. B is here to show us what we’ve been starving for: "Nutrition should be about adding more of the stuff that is missing, that our body terribly needs in order to be healthy". In this episode, I'm joined by triple board-certified gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz to dissect the "triad" of your gut microbes, your gut barrier, and your 70% of your immune system.

We’re moving past basic fitness to tackle the chronic inflammation that Dr. B found in over 130 different health conditions. From why you should be "refrigerating your sourdough" to create metabolism-boosting resistant starch, to the "second meal effect" that keeps your blood sugar stable for hours, this episode is a tactical roadmap for long-term vitality. And don’t worry—we still make room for the "Thai noodles" because your health is a practice, not a prison.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Why you truly can’t out-exercise a poor diet
  • How the gut–immune–inflammation triad impacts midlife health
  • What trials reveal about saturated fat, seed oils, and inflammation
  • How fiber naturally boosts GLP-1 and stabilizes blood sugar
  • The “second meal effect” and why beans are metabolic magic
  • How short-chain fatty acids enhance insulin sensitivity and satiety
  • Why resistant starch (cooled potatoes, rice) improves metabolic flexibility
  • The truth about whole grains and inflammation
  • Algae vs. fish-based omega-3s and what to look for in supplements
  • Why capsule form, refrigeration, and quality control matter
  • How to increase fiber without bloating
  • Small, practical steps that build long-term gut, immune, and metabolic resilience

…And much more!

Get Jumping!! Rebounder Workouts = Cardio without Impact

I loooove my rebounder mini-trampoline workouts. Why? Efficient cardio without high-impact hurting my joints + the bonus of improving lymphatic flow.

It's a great 1-2 punch to get a high energy, low-impact sweat on with the added benefit of using the trampoline as a step, bench and other uses to allow for building muscle (especially when you add-on the strength training kit for a true muscle-building workout!).

You can even use code: SAMANTHA10- 10% off fitness trampolines model 250 or higher.
