He explains how autoimmune diseases can play a significant role in the development of Alzheimer’s and other chronic conditions. We discuss the role of gut health, the impact of diet on autoimmune diseases, and practical lifestyle changes that can help prevent and even reverse these conditions. From the importance of a plant-based diet to the dangers of glyphosate and processed foods, today's conversation offers valuable insights on how to protect and optimize your health. Dr. Rogers also shares his expertise on reversing disease through diet and lifestyle changes, making this episode a must-listen for those looking to improve their long-term health.“You're not gonna get better unless you change something about your diet and your toxin exposure.
