Food Heals

434: Nutritional Genetics, The Truth About Keto, Healing Multiple Sclerosis, and More with a Gastroenterologist


Listen Later

In today's episode of Food Heals, we delve into the transformative journey of Dr. Marvin Singh, an integrative gastroenterologist who believes in the power of nutritional genetics and gut health to achieve true wellness.

Dr. Singh's Awakening:

A medical doctor struggling with weight issues and early signs of fatty liver disease, Dr. Marvin Singh realized his lack of knowledge about nutrition. To bridge this gap, he pursued an integrative medicine fellowship, discovering a holistic approach that combines conventional methods with nutrition, genetics, and meditation. Within just three months of applying these principles to his life, he shed 40 pounds, a turning point that inspired his path towards helping others heal themselves.

Understanding the Microbiome:

Central to Dr. Singh's approach is the microbiome, the community of friendly bacteria in the gut. Supporting these beneficial bacteria is crucial for optimal well-being, as they influence hormone release and emotional well-being.

Gut Health and Chronic Diseases:

The gut houses 70% of the immune system and plays a vital role in protecting against chronic diseases and autoimmune conditions. Chronic inflammation, triggered by factors like diet, stress, and toxins, can lead to these conditions if left unchecked.

The Power of Nutritional Genetics:

Recognizing that everyone's gut composition is unique, Dr. Singh emphasizes the significance of nutritional genetics in tailoring individual healing approaches. Understanding your genes, microbiome, and food sensitivities helps identify the best-suited diet for you.

Lifestyle Matters:

Beyond nutrition and genetics, lifestyle plays a significant role in wellness. Dr. Singh advises focusing on quality sleep, exercise, stress management, and activities that bring joy.
