Summary
Could sausage ever be as healthy as broccoli? This idea has caught fire through the concept of personalized nutrition. It's the idea that your body runs better on some foods and not as well on others. In theory, this means that junk food could be healthier than fruits and vegetables in some cases.
But is that too good to be true?
Dr. Will Bulsiewicz joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to explore what personalized nutrition actually is, what it could mean for the future of medicine, and whether sausage could actually be as coveted as broccoli for your health.
Plus, they answer viewer questions from The Doctor's Mailbag
- Universally healthy foods
- Eating for your blood type
- Microbiome and mental health
Also, you'll discover why a traditional Chinese diet may be just what the doctor ordered to lower blood pressure when Chuck reports on a promising study on hypertension.
Dr. Bulsiewicz is a two-time New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled and The Fiber Fueled Cookbook.
