Description

In this episode, we’re diving into the often-confused world of parasite cleansing and gut repair — what they are, when they’re needed, and why they’re not the same thing. We unpack the key differences between killing off unwanted bugs and actually repairing the gut lining, plus we bust a few persistent myths that might be steering people in the wrong direction.

You’ll hear examples of the antimicrobials we use in clinic (and when to use them wisely), as well as the herbs, nutrients, and strategies we lean on for true gut healing. Whether you’re in the thick of a gut health journey or just gut-curious, this one’s packed with clarity, nuance, and practical takeaways.
