Welcome back to another episode of the Plant Based News podcast. Today we sit down today with leading gastroenterologist, nutritionist, and author Dr. WIll Bulsiewicz.

Dr. WIll Bulsiewicz, also known as Dr. B and The Gut Health MD, is a graduate of Georgetown University School of Medicine. He trained in internal medicine at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and in gastroenterology at The University of North Carolina Hospitals. He is board-certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology and an expert in digestive diseases.

He is a New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly bestselling author and his latest cookbook “The Fiber Fueled Cookbook” extends his previous work by delivering “deeply flavorful, satisfying plant-based recipes” that target food intolerances.

I am thrilled to welcome Dr WIll Bulsiewicz to this episode of the PBN podcast, where we’ll dig deeper into what makes for a good diet and a healthy gut, how to combat food intolerances as well as his own journey as a physician and an author.
