Dr. Kara Fitzgerald and Jill Sheppard Davenport join Chris to highlight their new book, Better Broths and Healing Tonics, which provides recipes for easy, flavorful, health-supportive broths, and add‑ins to “boost” the broths for maximum nutrition and healing benefits. They discuss the immense healing properties of broth and why it’s an excellent way to add nutrient density to meals, the results of their study on whether bones harbor lead and other toxic metals, the science behind “food as medicine,” how people with histamine intolerance should approach broths, how to use methylation adaptogens and other health‑supportive ingredients in all your favorite recipes, and how you can even make broth-based sweets and treats.

Doctor, clinical researcher, and author Dr. Michael Ruscio joins Chris in this episode of Revolution Health Radio to discuss the important and often overlooked connection between gut health, nutrient absorption, and thyroid function. They talk about why so many people are misdiagnosed with hypothyroidism and misprescribed thyroid medication, the myth that Hashimoto’s always leads to hypothyroidism, how gut symptoms can be similar to symptoms of hypothyroidism and how patients can be misdiagnosed with hypothyroidism when they really have underlying gut disorders, and why people with subclinical hypothyroidism should generally not be prescribed thyroid hormone.

For decades, the mainstream medical view of gluten intolerance has been relatively black or white. But celiac disease is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to gluten intolerance—there are many other ways that sensitivity to wheat and/or gluten can manifest in the body. In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, we’ll examine the science behind non-celiac wheat sensitivity, including how a person can be gluten intolerant without having celiac disease, the signs and symptoms of gluten intolerance, and why current testing for celiac disease is falling short.
