Gluten, Leaky Gut, and Autoimmune Disease with Dr. Tom O'Bryan

Could chronic inflammation, gluten, and poor gut health be silently sabotaging your brain? In today’s episode, I interview Dr. Tom O’Bryan, a renowned expert in autoimmune disease and gluten. 

We discuss the profound connection between chronic inflammation, gut health, and brain function. Dr. O'Bryan explains how low-grade chronic inflammation, often undetected, is a driving force behind diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and autoimmune disorders. He emphasizes the role of gluten in triggering this inflammation, especially for those with gluten sensitivity.

Dr. O’Bryan also sheds light on how a healthy diet, reduced inflammation, and functional medicine strategies can potentially prevent or even reverse mild cognitive decline. His insights, including leaky gut and its contribution to neurodegenerative diseases, are eye-opening for anyone concerned about Alzheimer’s or brain health in general.

Tune in to hear practical steps you can take to protect your health, including the crucial step of testing for inflammation in your body.

“Yes, Alzheimer's can be arrested or prevented. It's much better to prevent than to recognize that you're somewhere down the path already and you want to stop the progression.”
