Welcome to the Dr. Gundry podcast. The weekly podcast where Dr. G gives you the tools you need to boost your health and live your healthiest life.

Love snacking on popcorn? Me too. But as a corn-based product, boy does it wreak havoc on our gut health.

You see, corn is a lectin bomb. Eat enough of it or corn-based products like tortilla chips and popcorn and eventually these sticky proteins or lectins found in corn, tear tiny holes in your gut lining, which can lead to all sorts of inflammation.

But never fear. You can still have your pop snack without the leaky gut side effects. I'm talking about Nate's Nature Pop Sorghum.

Nate pops up Sorghum kernels just like you would corn kernels and they're delicious. For movie night, Penny and I love Nate's Nature Pop Sorghum.

It's easy to digest, lectin-free, non-GMO, organic, high in magnesium and tastes great. Just like popcorn. They even have a variety of flavors to choose from, including masala, ghee butter, avocado oil and sea salt, rose marring garlic, and my wife's favorite is the pink Himalayan.

Use the pink Himalayan sea salt to try the better-than-pop corn-pop Sorghum for yourself. Go to www.naturenatesllc.com and use the promo code GundryPodcast to get 15% off your first order.

Improving yourself starts with shifting your patterns and building healthier habits. That means making time to fit yourself in every day, managing your stress and focusing on your sleep.

So you feel more energized and refreshed. Fitbit sense is the advanced health watch that gives you tools to do just that.

It's the world's first smartwatch with an EDA sensor that can actually indicate your body's response to stress. Fitbit premium members get a detailed breakdown of their stress management score.

Which is really cool because it shows how your heart, activity, and sleep are affected by stress. And whenever you need to take a breather, you can do guided mindfulness sessions to help calm your body and mind.

Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast. All right, it's Q&A Day where I take your questions from social media and Apple Review comments and answer them.

Let me tell you, I just love hearing from you. And your questions really inspire me. And some of these even spur me to research and include these topics in my next book.

And so keep them common folks. I love it. Here we go. From Instagram at Timothy George asks, can you go over the most important but not so common blood tests that we should be adding to our yearly physicals like the ones you mentioned in the energy paradox?

Or perhaps are there others as well?

Amazing book, by the way. Life-changing. I'm lucky to have a general doctor who is very open to your teachings and will order labs that you say. Thank you.

Okay, so that's a great question, Timothy George. I've gotten, I put a whole list out in the energy paradox for those of you who have not gotten it yet.

So there's certain tests that you really should get from your doctor or your healthcare provider that are cheap and easy to obtain. And then we can go into more esoteric ones.
