I am honored to reconnect with Dr. Will Cole today! The last time we connected was in 2021, on Episode 138. Dr. Cole is a leading functional medicine expert who specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicine approach. He is the author of many books, including The New York Times bestseller Intuitive Fasting and most recently, Gut Feelings, a book I think everyone will benefit from reading. Today, Dr. Cole and I dive into the impetus for his latest book and discuss the toxic food culture, mixed messages, the psychology of food, finding peace with food, and how to reduce our toxic tribalism. We also talk about inflammatory foods and their impact on our gut microbiome, the role of the vagus nerve, how chronic stress is the ultimate junk food for the body, the effects of adverse childhood events and trauma, and what shame-flammation is. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Dr. Cole discusses his latest book, Gut Feelings. The role of mixed messages. What is most important in the wellness world? Types of foods that do not serve the best needs of our bodies. Is it the grain? Or is it what we have done to it? What are we feeding our bodies, and what are we eating in our hearts? How to differentiate between poor vagal tone and dysautonomia. Stress and how it impacts our biochemistry. How stress is implicated in many health problems. Re-negotiating your relationship with life. The role of trauma in weight loss. How shame can be the basis of many physical and emotional health issues.
