Episode 29 of The Health Exchange Podcast tackles the myths and realities of digestive health with gastroenterologist Dr. Kumkum Patel. From irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to inflammatory bowel disease, celiac, and motility issues, Dr. Patel breaks down what’s actually going on when your gut isn’t working right—and why so many of these conditions get overlooked or misdiagnosed. She and Dr. Rutland explore how gut health connects to mood, immunity, and even hormones, while unpacking buzzy terms like “leaky gut” and “probiotics” with clarity and nuance. Whether you’re managing chronic symptoms or simply trying to understand your digestion, this episode offers real answers with a healthy mix of science and humor.
