Summary
In this episode of The Art of Being Well, Dr. Will Cole sits down with Kim Rogers to explore overlooked root causes behind chronic gut issues, inflammation, and immune dysregulation. Kim shares her personal journey through years of unexplained symptoms, including mold exposure, Lyme disease, and persistent gut dysfunction. They discuss why parasites are far more common than most people realize and how they can impact digestion, mental health, and overall resilience. This conversation unpacks why many symptoms are dismissed as “normal” and what they may actually be signaling. Dr. Cole and Kim emphasize the importance of addressing terrain, not just chasing symptoms. For all links mentioned in this episode, visit www.drwillcole.com/podcast.

| 0:06.7 | Hi, I'm Dr. Will Cole. |
| 0:09.7 | Wellness is a sacred art, and you are the masterpiece. |
| 0:14.3 | This is the art of being well. |
| 0:32.0 | Most of you know that basic labs really just scratching the surface when it comes to people thriving and feeling |
| 0:38.7 | their best, the training, the model, the sort of angle of health optimization, even chronic |
| 0:46.8 | health problems. The paradigm is diagnose a disease, give it a diagnosis code, match it with a |
| 0:53.6 | corresponding pharmaceutical drug. It's this sort of |
| 0:56.4 | medicinal matching game. If you have high cholesterol, you get the statin drug. If you have high |
| 1:01.5 | blood pressure, you get the blood pressure medication. Your TSA is above 4.5. You get the thyroid |

| 1:38.2 | toxins, herbicides, pesticides, microplastics, forever chemicals. there is copious amount of research in the scientific |
| 1:44.9 | literature already implicating these variables to explaining why these are the pieces to the |
| 1:51.8 | possible, the components as to why people are not thriving more than ever before. |
| 1:56.2 | And we have to do something different to see something different. If you want to learn more |
