Summary

Hey, Heal Squad! This Heal in 10 is a quick but powerful gut health lesson with Dr. Steven Gundry! He breaks down the real reason red wine might actually be good for your gut, and it’s not because of the alcohol. He dives into research on how fermented beverages (like wine and champagne!) may increase microbiome diversity and lower inflammation markers. We also explore the surprising science behind postbiotics, like butyrate, and why these fermentation byproducts could be the missing link in your gut healing journey. Dr. Gundry even explains why happy hour habits might be doing more harm than good, and how traditional cultures do it differently. Tune in!
