Today, we continue our conversation with Dr. Michael Camilleri, one of the world’s leading experts on leaky gut, to separate fact from fiction on one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) health topics on the internet. We get into whether leaky gut is actually the root cause of chronic diseases like depression and autoimmune conditions, whether you can test for it at home, and why some doctors still call it a “hypothetical condition.” Dr. Camilleri also breaks down the real science behind bone broth, collagen, and gut health, what stress actually does to your gut lining (yes, marathoners, we’re looking at you), and why expensive supplements might not be the answer. Plus, we talk about the role of gluten, the truth about food sensitivities, and how everyday choices like fat and emulsifiers in your diet could be affecting your gut more than you think.
