Heal Your Gut And Discover What Your Bowel Movements Should Look Like With Dr. Mary Pardee

Talking about your bowel movements as part of your overall gut
health picture is essential. And yet, the topic is still
something of a taboo. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie and Dr. Mary
Pardee get into the details you've always wanted to know but
perhaps didn't feel comfortable asking about. You'll find out
what a normal bowel movement should look like, how fasting and
your period affect it, and ways to aid the process mechanically.
They'll guide you through recognizing the symptoms of poor
digestive health including IBS and SIBO, as well as the intricate
connection between your brain, emotions, and gut.
