Hello, welcome to the podcast. I'm your host, Evan Brand. Today we're going to be talking all about the

gut inflammation, leaky gut, intestinal permeability, gut infection connection. As you know, I've been

one of the top, voted, top ranked speakers on, I lost count, like 20 plus summits over the last

five to six years from SIBO summits to

Parasited summits to chronic infection, chronic inflammation summits. I mean, I've done them all.

And many of you have found me from those summits. So I'm very grateful that you spent time watching

these events and you decided on me as your guy many people like you're the best so

thank you so much i love the feedback on those talks and today we're going to dive into some of the

root causes many of you already know these but we're going to dive into these and one important

mechanism recently and i've actually put an entire new lecture in my Better Belly functional medicine training course.

And it's all about the you know what virus and gut health.

And I did an entire lecture on this looking at the research.

This is now clearly laid out in the literature.

Leaky gut intestinal permeability increases your risk of

hospitalization, ICU visits, lung infiltration, and many, many other related issues. We've been saying

this for a decade, but for some reason it's still considered trendy or sexy to say things like

Leaky Gut in the mainstream

just doesn't recognize it. We now have published literature. I go through all the literature on that

and actually show you some of the protocols we're implementing to help people with the virus and their

gut health because we're seeing many, many things with gut health being damaged directly from the virus, but

we're seeing people that are going into this virus with an unhealthy gut and they are having

much, much more severe outcome.
