Looking after my gut health has been a really important part of my thyroid health approach for many years now. I always enjoy learning more about the gut-thyroid and gut-brain connection and learnt quite a bit from this conversation with Dr Kozlowski.

Dr Kozlowski is a medical doctor who trained in Functional Medicine. Functional medicine is about getting to the underlying causes of disease so you know WHY you are sick and treat those things.

The key topics covered in this podcast are:

• How the thyroid and the gut are connected.
• How gut health impacts thyroid health.
• The thyroid as a sponge.
• Low stomach acid - symptoms, a do-at-home test and how to increase it.
• The vagus nerve - how could be the key to unfunc-ing the gut and how it relates to the thyroid.
• Gut imbalances - microbiome, dysbiosis
• Food sensitivities
• SIBO
• Mental/emotional and spiritual health and how they can block gut healing.

For a deeper dive into understand gut health and the gut-brain connection, get a copy of Dr Kozlowski's book, Unfunc your Gut.

As a Functional Medicine M.D., Dr. Peter Kozlowski uses a broad array of tools to find the source of the body’s dysfunction: he takes the time to listen to his patients and plots their history on a timeline, considering what makes them unique and co-creating with them a truly individualized care plan. Currently he works with patients online and in person via his Chicago, Illinois and Bozeman, Montana based offices. Dr. Kozlowski did his residency in Family Practice, but started training in Functional Medicine as an intern. He trained in the clinics with leaders in his field including Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Deepak Chopra, and Dr. Susan Blum.
