Gut health is more than just digestion—it’s the foundation of our mood, energy, and long-term wellbeing. In this episode, we explore the deep connection between the gut and the brain with Dr. Felice Chan, a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor and acupuncturist who helps patients heal holistically. She shares why bloating, fatigue, and even anxiety often trace back to digestion, how ancient practices like tongue and pulse diagnosis reveal what’s really going on in the body, and what simple changes (like eating a warm, protein-rich breakfast) can transform your health. We also dive into concepts like the “three treasures” of Chinese medicine—jing, qi, and shen—and how they shape the way we age, manage stress, and balance our spirit. If you’ve ever wondered why your body feels off despite doing all the ‘healthy’ things, this conversation will change the way you approach wellness.
