6:04Now PlayingThe conversation explores the growing confusion surrounding health advice, especially regarding diet, lifestyle, and gut health. Emeran Mayer emphasizes that gut health isn't only about food but the context in which food is grown, prepared, and consumed — highlighting the Mediterranean lifestyle over just the diet. They also discuss ancient populations with excellent gut health, living long, healthy lives without modern medicine. The dialogue touches on the limits of Western medicine, the power of placebo, and the need to distinguish evidence-based guidance from misinformation.
