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.

Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast.

Well, by now you probably heard me talk a lot about super foods, foods that are loaded with essential nutrients like omega-3s, polyphenols and antioxidants.

You might also know that some of my absolute favorites include foods like avocados, mushrooms and macadamia nuts.

Well, today I'm joined by Catherine Arnston, a wellness thought leader and experienced entrepreneur who says there's a newer superfood on the radar and is one of the most exciting yet.

In fact, she says it could be bigger than college and oh my gosh, and NASA has even referred to it as the answer to world hunger.

Today we're talking all about algae.

Catherine and I are going to explain how certain types of algae can be used to support your energy levels, immune response, skin health and so much more.

We'll also explain how algae works to fill nutritional gaps and ultimately how it can help protect you from serious illness.

Before we dive into all things algae, I want to make it very clear that although algae is loaded with nutrients,

it is not to be considered a replacement for any medications or other recommendations made by your doctor and know it can't replace vegetables and other nutritious foods altogether either.

And know it is not a recognized treatment for the treatment of viral illnesses like COVID-19.

Instead, think of algae as a way to enhance your nutritional intake and support your health but not to replace other healthy practices.

And if you do decide to make room for algae in your diet, make sure to run it by your health care practitioner.

Okay, let's get started.

We've got a lot of exciting things in store for you today on today's episode, so stay tuned, we'll be right back.
