In this episode of 'Master Stress with Dr. S,' the focus is on understanding gut health through the lens of both conventional and integrative medicine. Dr. S discusses the limitations of conventional medicine, which often take a symptom-driven approach, and contrasts it with the integrative approach that seeks to identify and treat root causes. The episode touches on the importance of looking at the whole system, including spiritual, emotional, and physical health, and emphasizes the need for a unified model that incorporates all aspects of healing. Dr. S also shares her personal journey of relearning and expanding her medical knowledge to better address patient needs. This episode is particularly useful for those who have been told their tests are normal but still suffer from persistent symptoms.
