STOP Drinking Soda. Your Gut Will Thank You. | Dr. Will Bulsiewicz
We know that kombucha is better for you than soda, right? But just how differently do these two beverages affect the gut? When you choose a ginger kombucha over, say, a cherry cola, the impact of that decision may be greater than you think. Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, gastroenterologist and best-selling author of Fiber Fueled, takes us inside the digestive tract to help us understand the big impact of these seemingly small choices.
Plus -- an update on Chuck Carroll's health journey. Doctors at the Mayo Clinic have a new theory about what may be causing Chuck's debilitating symptoms.
In this episode of The Exam Room you'll learn:
- How kombucha benefits the gut
- The impact of soda vs kombucha on the body
- How acid in soda and kombucha can put microplastics in your body
- What to know about alcohol in kombucha
- How added sugar impacts the microbiome and the immune system
