Why do I always feel tired and bloated?

What foods are secretly destroying my gut health?

How do I fix leaky gut naturally?

What are lectins, and should I avoid lectins?

How do I reduce chronic inflammation?

Why does my autoimmune disease keep flaring up?

What supplements actually work for gut health?

How do I improve my brain fog naturally?

Can you reverse heart disease with diet?

What probiotics and prebiotics should I take?

How do I boost my energy without caffeine?

Why am I always hungry even after eating?

How do I support my mitochondria and cellular health?

If you're ready to stop managing your symptoms and start healing the root cause, this podcast is for you. Dr. Steven Gundry is the doctor people find after every other doctor has run out of answers.

A world-renowned cardiothoracic surgeon, gut-health pioneer, and bestselling author of The Plant Paradox, Dr. Gundry has spent over 20 years uncovering why so many people are still sick, tired, and struggling — and, more importantly, how to reverse it. He has helped hundreds of thousands of patients and followers lose stubborn weight, overcome autoimmune disease, eliminate chronic inflammation, and reclaim energy they thought was gone forever.

What sets this health podcast apart? Dr. Gundry still sees patients six days a week, analyzing real bloodwork to track exactly how nutrition and targeted supplements reduce inflammation, heal leaky gut, and stop disease in its tracks. Every episode is rooted in his latest clinical findings — not outdated guidelines.

Four times a week, joined by leading MDs and top researchers, he delivers the science-backed answers most people spend years searching for — on gut health, weight loss, longevity, autoimmune disease, and upgrading your diet for lasting results.

Your body was designed to heal. Dr. Gundry will show you how.

    Most people think of a sauna as a place to sweat. But some of the most exciting longevity research I’m following has nothing to do with sweating. It’s about a light wave you can’t see, and what it may be doing for your mitochondria.

    I’m welcoming back Connie Zack, co-owner of Sunlighten, a company that has spent more than 25 years pioneering infrared sauna technology. It’s been three years since her last visit, and a lot has changed, including a groundbreaking new sauna called Amplify Red. 

    In this episode, Connie and I explore why this light wave may reach deeper than the red light everyone’s obsessed with and how it fits into the biology of aging. We also talk about energy, resilience, and what it takes to feel better with every birthday.

    And we get practical about the habits that make it stick. We all want to live a long time. We just don’t want to get old, or get the ailments that come with it.


    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • (03:59) The toxins chlorella and charcoal can’t touch,
    • (06:26) The invisible light wave that can travel all the way through your body
    • (08:48) Is the red light everyone’s buying not as effective as another type of light therapy? 
    • (13:11) Are you too far from your light therapy source? How to know
    • (22:46) What heart surgery taught me about this Scandinavian secret
    • (25:08) Why “zombie cells” are driving inflammation and the “slayer” that may help take them down
    • (32:07) Why your gut’s stem cells may be idle, and why this light could wake them
    • (42:43) How to start a sauna habit, and the sauna mistake to avoid

  2. Is Sourdough Bread The Healthiest Bread? | EP 431

    Shownotes

    Ten years ago, I told Dr. Oz on his daytime show that sourdough was the best of a bad choice, and somehow that turned into “Dr. Gundry says eat sourdough.” Today, I’m setting the record straight.

    In episode 431, I’ll explain why the very thing that makes sourdough special may not do what you’ve been led to believe, and why the problem may go deeper than the flour itself. 

    I’ll share a surprising story about patients who seemed to be doing great until something changed. I’ll also pull back the curtain on what’s really going on inside U.S.-made bread, and why even the artisan bakery down the street may not be the safe haven you think it is.

    If you love bread (like I do!) but care about your gut health and longevity more, this one’s for you. I’ll also leave you with some swaps for when you really gotta have a loaf, plus a quick answer to a listener’s question about vitamin D3.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • (00:44) How I got pegged as the “sourdough guy” and why I wouldn’t say it again
    • (01:43) What fermentation can’t do to gluten
    • (02:43) The pre-harvest spray that may make wheat even harder on your gut
    • (03:41) What happened to my patients after a trip to France
    • (06:54) The hidden ingredient in your bread that may affect your brain
    • (08:50) Bread swaps, including a DIY loaf
    • (10:00) My final verdict on sourdough

    What if the pill your doctor handed you is silencing the smoke alarm while the real fire keeps burning?

    Today on the podcast, I’m sharing what I got wrong about high blood pressure for most of my career, and why the real root cause may not be in your heart, your blood vessels, or your salt shaker at all.

    I’ll walk you through the molecule that tells your blood vessels to relax, the bacteria that help you make it, and the foods that can start turning things around this week. I’ll also tell you about one nightly habit almost all of you share, and why it may be working against you.

    A few highlights from today’s episode:

    • The bedtime habit that’swiping out the good oral bacteria (04:17)
    • How a leaky gut can stiffen your arteries, and what a study of more than 600 women found (06:37)
    • The “healthy” whole grain that may stick to your artery walls like a splinter (08:33)
    • The foods that may help retrain your gut buddies (10:28)
    • The raw salad I call a nitric oxide machine on a plate (14:15)
    • Why I’d skip the banana, and what I’d eat instead (15:13)
    • The low-sodium trap that may be driving up your blood pressure (18:35)

    Poop. Did you know that what lands in your toilet every day is the most honest report card your body will ever hand you? 

    In episode 429, I’ll answer all the poop, constipation, and gut health questions you’ve always wanted to ask, and we’re going to do it rapid-fire because you sent in so many.

    Here’s what most people never realize: a large proportion of your poop is living and dead bacteria, not the food you ate. That means its size, shape, color, and smell are telling you how well you’re feeding your gut buddies. Give them what they want to eat, and you’ll see a giant coiled snake looking back up at you. Don’t, and you get little hard pellets, or worse.

    I’ll explain how often you should really be going, when blood in your stool means it’s time to see a doctor, and why floating, greasy, or clay-colored stools deserve your attention. 

    We’ll also get into coffee, undigested food, fecal transplants, and whether there’s a right way to sit on the toilet. Because the road to health is paved with good intestines.

    Some of the questions I’ll answer in this episode:

    • (03:04) What is your poop actually made of? It’s not what you think, and it could explain why yours is getting smaller.
    • (09:17) Is “just eat more fiber” the answer? This Stanford study will surprise you.
    • (15:24) Why does your poop float and look greasy? 
    • (17:19) Why does your dog never need toilet paper? And what does it say if you do?
    • (19:00) Why this mineral is the only laxative you need
    • (21:08) Why a once-popular “cleanse” should be banned. (It was a misguided theory in the 1800s, but people are still paying for it.)
    • (24:59) Do your bowels really slow down as you age? 
    • (25:21) What happens when you get a fecal transplant from a modern hunter-gatherer tribe?

    Shownotes

    Ready to spice up your life? I’ve got seven spices almost nobody in this country has heard of—even though they’ve been used in kitchens and medicine cabinets around the world for thousands of years. From Grains of Paradise (my daily swap for black pepper) to black seed, sumac, and a smoky cardamom that protects your liver, the research is finally catching up to why these ancient ingredients work.

    As Hippocrates said, let food be thy medicine — and now we know why.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The black pepper swap I use daily – and why it’s better for your health (01:31)
    • The seed found in King Tut’s tomb, and what happened when it was tested on blood sugar and cholesterol (03:02)
    • The tart spice sprinkled on hummus that packs more polyphenols than oregano (05:19)
    • The little-known spice I’ve taken for years to support healthy blood pressure (08:24)
    • The sour green powder that your gut bacteria love (11:00)
    • The smoky spice you can drop into a pot of stew the way you’d use a bay leaf (13:03)

    What IS fatty liver? Why nearly every patient I test has some degree of fatty liver, and how to reverse it — because this may be the most common condition almost nobody knows they have.

    • Why your liver can be in trouble for years with zero symptoms (00:00)
    • How foie gras is really made — and why your liver may be next (03:13)
    • The great-ape “thrifty gene” quietly turning fruit into liver fat (05:50)

    Shownotes

    Creatine has more to do with your brain than your biceps. It helps your cells recycle ATP, the energy your brain burns through faster than almost any tissue you've got. So it isn't really about building bigger muscles at all. It's about energy, focus, and staying sharp at any age.

    In my latest episode, I break down what creatine actually is, how much to take, and the 3 things I check on every label before I buy, because this is one of the most contamination-prone supplements out there.

    On this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why creatine is a peptide, not a protein, and what that changes (00:07)
    • The "magical" thing it does to your energy-hungry brain (02:05)
    • Why it may matter more as you age, not less (04:15)
    • The "half-scoop" trick so you don't blow up like a toad (05:59)
    • The 3 things to check on any creatine label before you buy (08:23)

    Done right, creatine is one of the most proven things you can take to support your muscles and your brain.

    Show notes/Transcript: https://drgundry.com/creatine-brain-health

    P.S. Creatine fuels your muscles, but it doesn't build them. That distinction is exactly why I formulated my own, MyoPeptide Complex, with the full 5-gram clinical dose plus a few things creatine alone can't do. Take a look here.

    Shownotes

    Asthma. What if the wheezing, the tight chest, the inhaler you reach for every spring isn’t really a lung problem at all? In this episode, I’ll explain why asthma has skyrocketed since the 1960s and what you can do to fix it.

    Questions I’ll answer:

    • Is asthma really a lung disease… or an overreactive immune system firing from somewhere else entirely?
    • Could our obsession with “clean”, like sterile homes, sterile hands, sterile food, be the culprit?
    • Why did almost no one have these problems a few generations ago?
    • What do antibiotics in pregnancy and early childhood have to do with a wheeze that shows up years later?
    • Why might a muddy dog be one of the best things for your lungs?
    • And the big one: if asthma starts in the gut, what does it actually take to calm the whole system down?


    Topics covered: asthma and the immune system, leaky gut and inflammation, the hygiene hypothesis, endotoxins as “nature’s allergy shots,” antibiotics in early life, the microbiome and immune “education,” gut buddies, Akkermansia and the mucus layer, lectins and the gut wall, molecular mimicry, dogs, dirt, and microbial diversity, and restoring your inner terrain.

    Shownotes

    In this episode, I break down the real reasons we feel pain in the first place, why the most popular over-the-counter painkillers are quietly making your pain worse the longer you take them, and the smarter, natural tools I reach for with my own patients. From ice versus heat, to Epsom salt baths, to the surprising gut connection behind migraines, I’ll show you how to work with your body’s signals instead of blasting through them.

    Because when you understand that pain is information, you stop asking “how do I make this stop?” and start asking the far more important question: “why is my body telling me this?”

    On this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why pain is your body’s warning system — and what happens when you ignore the root cause (01:35)
    • The real reasons we feel pain: inflammation, poor blood flow, nerve irritation, and gut dysfunction (02:33)
    • Why chronic inflammation is like cutting yourself in the same spot every single day — and never letting it heal (06:36)
    • Ice vs. heat: which one to reach for, and why Epsom salt baths deliver magnesium without the bathroom emergency (07:15)
    • The surprising gut connection behind migraines — and how I went from 30 years of headaches to none (11:16)
    • The story of my patient Jill, her zucchini-tomato relish, and the simple kitchen trick that ended her migraines (12:32)
    • Why I tell my patients that one ibuprofen is like swallowing a hand grenade for your gut (14:21)
    • The natural COX-2 alternative I trust, plus the free pain tools hiding in your bathtub, your pool, and your own breath (16:51)

    Shownotes

    What if a 30-second morning habit could lower your blood pressure — no pill, no diet overhaul? In this episode, I'll reveal an ancient trick modern science just confirmed, and why the “minty fresh” mouthwash in your cabinet may be quietly driving your blood pressure up.

    Highlights:

    • The nitric oxide connection — the Nobel Prize-winning molecule that dilates your blood vessels, and why it fades with age
    • Why mouthwash backfires — killing “99% of bacteria” wipes out the good bugs that lower your blood pressure, by up to 7–10 points
    • Leaky mouth = leaky heart — how oral bacteria reach your heart valves (from a former cardiac surgeon)
    • The 30-second fix — scrape your tongue, skip the mouthwash, floss every other day


    Topics covered: nitric oxide and blood pressure, the oral microbiome, eNOS and aging, why mouthwash raises blood pressure, dietary nitrates, tongue scraping benefits, leaky gut, leaky mouth, gingivitis and heart health, oral bacteria and heart valves, flossing and C-reactive protein (HS-CRP), inflammation, gut buddies, lectins and gluten, leaky gut and hair loss in women, and natural blood pressure support.

    Shownotes

    I'll bet you've never heard the word sarcopenia — but I promise you, it's happening to you right now. Starting around age 30, you begin quietly losing muscle mass, and here's the scary part: most of my patients never feel it happening until it's robbed them of the last 20 good years of their life. So today, I want to let you in on something I've learned after seeing patients six days a week for over 25 years: this kind of muscle loss is NOT a normal part of aging. I can prevent it, and so can you — at any age.

    In this episode, I break down what I call the gut-muscle axis — how a leaky gut, beaten up by lectins, NSAIDs, and antibiotics, shrinks your protein-absorbing surface area from the size of a tennis court down to a ping-pong table. That's why I tell my patients the problem isn't that you need more protein as you get older. It's that you can't absorb the protein you're already eating. I'll also explain why I think of your muscles as the "customers" that insulin has to sell to, why 88% of overweight folks (and 50% of normal-weight folks) are insulin resistant, and why I'm so concerned about GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic — because up to 40% of the weight you lose on them is muscle, the one tissue you cannot afford to give up.

    Plus, I'll show you how sealing your leaky gut blocks myostatins (the little compounds that keep your muscles from growing), why the real money is in your butt and thighs — not your "guns" — and the two free, do-it-at-home strength moves my old friend Jack LaLanne swore by, which you can knock out while you're brushing your teeth. Here's my take-home message, and I mean it: it is never too late to seal your gut and rebuild the muscle that matters most.

    What I cover: sarcopenia, muscle loss and aging, leaky gut, gut health, insulin resistance, GLP-1 and Ozempic side effects, protein absorption, the gut-muscle axis, myostatin, strength training after 60, metabolic flexibility, frailty, healthspan, and longevity.

    Are we focusing on the wrong thing when it comes to protein and healthy aging?

    In this episode, I break down fascinating new research from my friend Dr. Valter Longo that could change the way you think about protein, muscle, and longevity. The key may not be how many grams of protein you eat, but how much of one specific amino acid, methionine, you're getting.

    I explain what the study found, why too much or too little methionine may matter, and how mTOR, IGF-1, GLP-1, and gut health fit into the picture. I’ll also share why I don't believe getting older automatically means you need to pile more animal protein onto your plate, and the protein sources I prefer for supporting strength while keeping longevity in mind.

    If you're over 50 or 60, eating a high-protein diet, or simply want to stay strong as you age, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

    What if I told you the "healthiest bread on earth" comes from a recipe that was originally supposed to be baked over human feces?

    It's true, and that recipe is straight out of the Bible.

    Right now, the internet is obsessed with the so-called Bible diet, also known as the Biblio diet, Promised Land diet, the Daniel diet, or simply biblical eating, but most of what's out there is cherry-picked scripture with zero context.

    So I decided to do it properly: chapter and verse, calling out what ancient eating habits actually got right, and where scripture needs a serious update.

    By the end, I'll give you my own Plant Paradox version of the biblical diet, the modern nutrition rules ancient wisdom got right thousands of years before science caught up.

    For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/is-the-bible-diet-healthy/

    On this episode, you’ll learn:  

    • The one Bible verse that sums up an entire ancient diet in a single line, and why it still holds up today (03:20)
    • Why the "butter" in Genesis wasn't anything like what's in your fridge, and what it means for your gut (04:39)
    • The surprisingly smart trick ancient people used on their beans and lentils that most home cooks skip today (08:30)
    • Why biblical households rarely ate their own cows, goats, or chickens (09:38)
    • Why I disagree with Leviticus on shellfish (10:40)
    • The real reason ancient grains may have existed, and it might not be for the bread you're thinking of (14:38)

    Everyone's chasing the wellness hack that'll finally crack the code on living longer: cold plunges, biological age tests, or extreme fasts.

    But my guest today just wrote an entire book making the opposite argument: most of that noise doesn't matter nearly as much as we think, and the real answer to a long, healthy life is a lot simpler than the wellness industry wants you to believe.

    Dr. Ezekiel "Zeke" Emanuel is a Harvard-trained oncologist, Vice Provost for Global Initiatives at the University of Pennsylvania, and a former special advisor on health policy to the Obama administration. His new book, Eat Your Ice Cream: Six Simple Rules for a Long and Healthy Life, lays out six evidence-based rules for a longer, better life.

    Sugar isn't just a habit; it's one of the most addictive substances in our diet, and most of us don't even realize how much we're consuming. In this episode, I'm breaking down my simple, four-step method for kicking a sugar addiction for good, without feeling deprived.

    I'll show you exactly where sugar hides on food labels (hint: it's not where you think), teach you the quick math trick that reveals the real sugar content in any packaged food, and explain why "healthier" sugars like honey, agave, and coconut sugar are still sugar. I'm also breaking down why some fruits are secretly loaded with fructose, which ones are safer bets, and why fruit today isn't the same fruit your grandparents ate.

    I'll get personal too, sharing my own history with Diet Coke addiction and why artificial sweeteners can trick your brain into craving more sugar, not less. Plus, my go-to sugar substitutes, the dark chocolate brand I actually trust, and the "healthy Coke" recipe I first shared years ago that still holds up today.

    Big Pharma bet billions on one theory: clear the amyloid, cure Alzheimer's.

    A new Cochrane review of 20,000+ patients just proved them wrong — these drugs don't work, and they may be putting your brain at risk. So what's really driving this epidemic?

    My guest today, six-time New York Times bestselling author and board-certified neurologist Dr. David Perlmutter, says the answer lies in a set of cells most people have never even heard of — and he lays it all out in his new book, Brain Defenders.

    The good news is, you already have more control over them than any drug could ever give you.

    We're talking about microglia, the brain's immune cells, and why the choices you make today may matter more than anything a prescription pad can offer.

    • Why vitamin D isn't a vitamin at all but a hormone quietly running the show for your gut and immune system

    Have you asked ChatGPT or Claude a health question before? 

    AI is already changing how patients research symptoms, read labs, and make health decisions — and that could be one of the most empowering shifts in medicine, or a potential disaster. My guest today knows exactly where that line is.

    Dr. Vivienne Ming is a theoretical neuroscientist who's spent 30years building AI to expand human potential, founding more than a dozen companies along the way. She has built one of the first AI systems ever designed to help manage a disease, and she shares it all in her new book, Robot-Proof: When Machines Have All the Answers, Build Better People.

    On this episode, we get into where AI genuinely helps your health, where it quietly diminishes your own power of intellect and reason, and why the smartest "mind" in any room isn't a genius or a supercomputer. 

    On this episode, you’ll learn:  

    • Why doctors and AI make "complementary" errors—and how combining them beats either one alone (01:31)
    • How outsourcing your thinking to AI over a lifetime could raise your risk of THESE health issues (06:54)
    • A fascinating experiment that reveals how you can build richer, denser brain connections through this (10:03)
    • Why your brain does a nightly cleanup during sleep (13:25)
    • The "nemesis prompt" trick for using AI to challenge you instead of letting it do the thinking for you (15:24)
    • What the "Jiffy Lube colonoscopy" problem is, and which doctors suffer from it the most (18:13)
    • The hidden bias problem in medical AI—and why it may perform worse for underrepresented populations (27:42)
    • The real reason AI hallucinations can never be fully eliminated, and what that means for how much you should trust it (30:00)
    • A simple technique for using AI to build real understanding of any health condition (40:15)
    • Practical guardrails for deciding how much to trust an AI answer before you bring it to your doctor (45:02)
