    301: Your Pets Are Dying Young - Here Is How To Help Them Live Longer And Healthier - with Dr. Judy Morgan

    What if modern veterinary care is treating the symptoms of chronic disease without addressing the conditions that created them? In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with veterinarian Dr. Judy Morgan for a wide-ranging conversation about root-cause pet health, gut health, nutrition, inflammation, the microbiome, immune function, and the growing role of holistic veterinary medicine. Dr. Morgan shares more than four decades of veterinary experience and explains why she believes pet health has changed dramatically over the past several decades. She discusses the three issues at the center of her work: what she describes as over-vaccination, ultra-processed pet food, and overuse of medications and pesticides. The conversation then moves into one of the most important foundations of health: nutrition. Dr. Morgan explains her approach to whole-food diets for dogs and cats, why she favors minimally processed ingredients, and how she approaches dietary changes in rescue animals and pets dealing with allergies or digestive problems. Josh and Judy also explore the connection between lifestyle and the microbiome. Judy describes an informal comparison involving her indoor and outdoor cats and discusses differences she observed in their microbiome profiles, while emphasizing the potential importance of sunlight, soil exposure, fresh plants, movement, hunting behaviors, and environmental enrichment. The episode also tackles controversial territory, including vaccination schedules, titers, homeopathic nosodes, pharmaceutical companies, corporate ownership of veterinary clinics, prescription diets, flea and tick medications, and the economics influencing veterinary recommendations. For pet parents dealing with chronic allergies, digestive problems, inflammation, behavioral issues, or recurring health problems, this episode offers a broader framework for thinking about animal health: look beyond the isolated symptom and consider the animal's food, environment, behavior, microbiome, immune system, and overall lifestyle.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Vaccination Schedules, Titers, And Over-Vaccination Pet Nutrition, Raw Feeding, And Ultra-Processed Kibble Corporate Veterinary Medicine, Private Equity, And Pharmaceutical Influence Whole-Animal Health And Root-Cause Veterinary Care Pet Allergies, Chronic Inflammation, And The Microbiome Animal Lifestyle, Stress, Behavior, And Environmental Enrichment Chinese Veterinary Medicine And Herbal Approaches Pet Longevity, Rescue Animals, And Disease Prevention Food Production, Farming, And Reconnecting People With Food Holistic Veterinary Business, Education, And Naturally Healthy Pets   More from Dr. Judy Morgan: Website: naturallyhealthypets.com Instagram: @drjudymorgan TikTok: Naturally Healthy Pets Facebook: Dr. Judy Morgan's Naturally Healthy Pets Youtube: Dr. Judy Morgan's Naturally Healthy Pets Listen to Dr. Judy Morgan's Podcast: The Naturally Healthy Pets Podcast   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    300: Nobody Cares About You... Except For You - with Jonny Mills

    Josh Dech sits down with Jonny Mills, founder of Wealth Pilot, to discuss what happens when you stop automatically following the path society has laid out for you and begin questioning what actually creates health, fulfillment, freedom, and meaning. Jonny shares his personal experience of becoming seriously ill shortly after relocating from London to Cape Town. After being hospitalized with severe diarrhea and eventually diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, he was told that he had a genetic condition and would need long-term medication. Jonny describes how that diagnosis became the beginning of a deeper investigation into gut health, chronic illness, the microbiome, and the root-cause question rather than the end of the conversation. From there, the conversation expands beyond the gut. Josh and Jonny explore how chronic stress, work, financial pressure, social expectations, relationships, and our definition of success can all influence the way we experience life. They discuss the psychological cost of constantly seeking external approval, why comparing yourself to others can become a trap, and how deliberately defining your own values can create a different form of wealth. They also challenge the idea that traditional employment is automatically synonymous with security, discussing financial independence, entrepreneurship, investing, and the importance of building greater personal control over your future. For anyone dealing with chronic gut issues or inflammatory conditions, the deeper message is about becoming an active participant in your own health journey—while recognizing that personal agency doesn't mean ignoring professional medical care. This is ultimately a conversation about health, identity, responsibility, freedom, and the courage to question whether the life you're living is actually the life you want.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Taking Agency And Personal Responsibility For Your Life Jonny's Ulcerative Colitis Journey And Questioning His Initial Diagnosis/Narrative Risk, Fear, Uncertainty, And Making Major Life Changes Chronic Stress, Societal Expectations, And Their Relationship To Health Financial Freedom, Entrepreneurship, And Control Over Your Future Discipline, Excellence, Motivation, And Doing Difficult Things Intentionally External Validation, Identity, Self-Worth, And The Need For Approval Comparison, Jealousy, Envy, Mentorship, And Measuring Personal Progress The Illusion Of Job Security And Preparing For An Uncertain Future Practical Ways To Build Autonomy Through Information, Values, And Intentional Decisions   More from Jonny Mills: Substack: The Wealth Code LinkedIn: Jonny Mills, CA   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    299: The Infant Microbiome Crisis That's Setting Your Kids Up To Have Chronic Disease - with Stephanie Culler

    What happens when the foundational microbes responsible for helping establish the infant gut microbiome begin disappearing? In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with microbiome researcher Stephanie Culler to explore one of the most overlooked factors in lifelong health: what happens to the gut microbiome during the earliest stages of life. Stephanie shares findings from the My Baby Biome study, described as the largest U.S. study of the infant gut microbiome, including the striking observation that 25% of babies in the study had no detectable Bifidobacterium at all. Even more concerning, the team found that approximately 76% of babies had low levels of these foundational bacteria, with low or absent levels by age two associated with substantially higher risk of conditions such as food allergies, eczema, and asthma. The conversation breaks down why Bifidobacterium—particularly Bifidobacterium infantis—matters, how human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) act as specialized prebiotics, and how microbial metabolites can influence immune-system development and inflammation. Stephanie explains how antibiotics, C-sections, feeding practices, ultra-processed foods, low-fiber diets, and broader modernization may be reshaping the infant microbiome across generations. Josh and Stephanie also explore whether the microbiome can be "rewilded," why some bacterial strains may be better adapted to the modern gut than older commercial strains, and the potential implications for adult gut health and inflammatory disease. They discuss research into microbiome restoration using targeted combinations of Bifidobacterium strains and HMOs. The episode also tackles a surprisingly nuanced question: is there one ideal diet for the microbiome? Stephanie explains why different microbiome configurations may respond differently to fiber-rich, mixed, or carnivore-style diets—and why personalized nutrition may ultimately depend on the microbial ecosystem already present in an individual's gut. For parents, prospective parents, and anyone interested in gut health, inflammation, the microbiome, immune function, and root-cause approaches to chronic disease, this conversation offers a provocative look at how early microbial exposure may influence health for decades to come.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: The Infant Microbiome And Loss Of Foundational Bifidobacterium Bifidobacterium Infantis, HMOs, Immune Development, And Inflammation Modernization, Antibiotics, C-Sections, Formula, And Ultra-Processed Foods Whether The Microbiome Can Be Restored Or "Rewilded" Stephanie's My Baby Biome Research And Microbiome Mapping Implications For Adult Gut Health, Crohn's, Colitis, Cancer, And Inflammatory Disease Microbiome-Adapted Bacterial Strains And The Persephone Product Diet, Fiber, Fermented Foods, Plants, And The Carnivore Debate Pregnancy, Maternal Microbiome, And Transmission To The Infant Microbiome Conservation, Extinction, And Banking Lost Species   More from Stephanie Culler: Website: persephone.bio Instagram: @persephone.bio TikTok: persephone.bio   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    298: Food Sensitivities: Why Elimination Diets Stop Working & What To Do Instead - with Hannah Aylward

    If you're bloated after eating, reacting to seemingly "healthy" foods, struggling with constipation or diarrhea, or living on an increasingly restrictive diet, the problem may be more complicated—and more fixable—than simply identifying the foods you're "sensitive" to. In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with gut-health practitioner Hannah Aylward for a deep conversation about food sensitivities, elimination diets, the microbiome, digestion, inflammation, and the search for root cause. Hannah explains why she doesn't recommend relying on IgG food sensitivity testing and how these tests can potentially create unnecessary food fear, particularly when gut-barrier function is compromised. Instead of continually eliminating foods, the conversation explores what may be happening upstream: impaired digestion, low stomach acid, digestive enzyme and bile issues, microbial imbalance, gut-barrier dysfunction, and the gut-brain connection. One of the most important themes is that there may not be a single "root cause." Hannah describes a layered approach in which several dysfunctions can interact, meaning the food someone reacts to may be a clue rather than the fundamental problem. The episode also explores why some people struggle to tolerate fiber-rich foods, why traditionally "gut-healthy" foods such as bone broth, collagen, sauerkraut, garlic, onions, and vegetables aren't necessarily right for everyone at every stage, and why a resilient microbiome should ultimately allow someone to tolerate a wider variety of foods. Hannah shares her own experience of spending nearly a decade on an elimination diet, dealing with severe bloating and food fear, and eventually discovering that there were deeper factors affecting her gut health—including digestion, microbial balance, environmental exposures, and the nervous system. Finally, Josh and Hannah discuss stress and the gut-brain connection, including why "it's just stress" can be an incomplete explanation. Stress can influence digestion, stomach acid, bile, motility, and gut-barrier function—meaning psychological and physiological health cannot always be separated. If you've tried elimination diets, probiotics, supplements, or "clean eating" and still don't understand why your gut isn't improving, this episode offers a different way to think about the problem: stop asking only what you're reacting to, and start asking why.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Food Sensitivities, Intolerances & Allergies IgG Food Sensitivity Testing And Why Hannah Doesn't Recommend It Root Causes Behind Food Reactions Elimination Diets, Food Restriction & Restoring Food Tolerance Gut Microbiome, Microbial Diversity & Fiber Tolerance Hannah's Personal Journey With Chronic Digestive Issues And Restrictive Eating Low Stomach Acid, Digestion, Enzymes, Bile & SIBO Carnivore Vs.

    297: Viruses Don't Exist And Your Heart Isn't A Pump - with Dr. Tom Cowan

    In this provocative episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with physician Dr. Tom Cowan for a wide-ranging conversation about disease, scientific reasoning, the heart, viruses, bacteria, environmental exposures, hormones, and the assumptions underlying conventional medicine. Cowan describes his unusual path into medicine, including 37 years in family practice, and explains the philosophy that drives much of his work: rather than immediately trying to determine what is true, first investigate whether the original claim has actually been demonstrated. That framework takes the conversation into controversial territory. Cowan challenges conventional explanations surrounding viruses and germ theory, using examples involving polio, measles, SARS-CoV-2, bacteria, antibodies, and laboratory procedures. He argues that some commonly accepted demonstrations of causation do not establish what they are claimed to establish. These are among the most contentious claims in the episode and are presented as Cowan's perspective rather than settled medical consensus. The discussion then shifts into physiology, where Cowan challenges the conventional description of the heart as a pressure-propulsion pump. He presents his theory of the heart as part of a vortex-based circulatory system and connects that concept to blood flow, pressure differentials, tissue-level physiology, and electrically charged water. Josh and Tom also explore mold, parasites, bacteria, environmental toxins, EMFs, inflammation, and the question of whether the presence of a microorganism necessarily establishes it as the root cause of illness. One of the most compelling themes throughout the conversation is critical thinking: separating observation from interpretation, correlation from causation, and established evidence from assumptions. For anyone interested in gut health, chronic illness, inflammation, the microbiome, immune system, root-cause health, functional medicine, or simply questioning how medical conclusions are reached, this episode offers a conversation designed to challenge your assumptions—and encourage you to investigate the claims for yourself.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Viruses, Virology & Germ Theory Scientific Methodology, Claims, Causation & Critical Thinking The Heart As A Pump Vs. Vortex-Based Circulation Polio, Measles & Changing Disease Definitions Bacteria, Mold, Fungi & Parasites As Alleged Disease Causes Water, Electrical Charge & "Fourth-Phase"/Gel-Like Water Environmental Toxins, Pesticides, Arsenic & Chemical Exposure Antibodies, Autoimmune Disease & Immune-System Assumptions Hormones, Testosterone, Insulin & How Biological Substances Are Identified   More from Dr. Tom Cowan: Website: drtomcowan.com Instagram: @talkinturkeywithtom_ Facebook: Dr. Tom Cowan Youtube: Talkin' Turkey with Tom X: @drtomcowan Dr. Tom's Foods: drcowansgarden.com Dr. Tom's Medicine: drtomcowan.com Dr. Tom's Clinic: newbiologyclinic.com   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    296: Hashimoto's Isn't Just A Thyroid Problem (Here Is What You 're Missing) - with Inna Topiler

    In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with board-certified clinical nutritionist Inna Topiler, who has spent nearly two decades working in the thyroid and Hashimoto's space. Together, they explore the deeper connection between gut health, inflammation, the microbiome, immune-system regulation, and thyroid function. The conversation begins with an important distinction: Hashimoto's is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the thyroid. Inna explains why she believes addressing thyroid hormone alone may not tell the whole story and why identifying potential immune triggers can be an important part of a root-cause investigation. Josh and Inna then explore the gut–thyroid connection, including digestive symptoms, chronic infections, microbial imbalances, intestinal permeability, nutrient absorption, liver and gallbladder function, and thyroid hormone conversion. Inna describes four broad categories of potential triggers she looks at with clients: food, infection, toxins, and stress. The episode also gets into why someone can have thyroid-related problems without obvious digestive symptoms, why Inna says the vast majority of her thyroid clients have some form of gut issue when investigated more deeply, and why she believes different "thyroid types" may require different approaches. You'll also hear a practical discussion about diet, food sensitivities, comprehensive stool testing, nutrient status, water filtration, stress management, nervous-system regulation, and the dangers of randomly experimenting with supplements. If you're dealing with Hashimoto's, hypothyroidism, chronic gut issues, inflammation, fatigue, brain fog, or autoimmune concerns, this conversation offers a systems-based perspective on why the gut and thyroid may need to be considered together.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: The Gut–Thyroid–Immune-System Chicken-And-Egg Relationship Hashimoto's Triggers: Food, Infection, Toxins And Stress The Thyroid's Role Throughout The Body And Its Connection To Gut, Liver, Gallbladder And Metabolism Thyroid Types And Thyroid Hormone Conversion Diet, Stool Testing, Gut Infections And Functional Investigation Stress, Nervous-System Regulation And Reframing Testing For Hashimoto's And Looking Beyond TSH Water, Plastics And Environmental Exposures Nutrients And Supplement Strategy   More from Inna Topiler: Website: innatopiler.com Instagram: @innatopiler Facebook: Inna Topiler Listen To Inna's Podcast: Thyroid Mystery Solved Podcast   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    295: The 5 Foods Behind Chronic Bloating—and What to Look for When Cutting Them Doesn't Work

    Chronic bloating is one of the most frustrating gut health symptoms—especially when you've already eliminated gluten, dairy, sugar, processed foods, or other suspected triggers and still feel swollen after meals. In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech explores the potential contributors to persistent bloating and why simply removing more foods may not always address the root cause. The conversation examines five food categories discussed in the episode: gluten and refined carbohydrates, dairy, sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners, ultra-processed "health foods," and highly fermentable foods such as legumes and cruciferous vegetables. The discussion then moves beyond diet into the mechanisms that may contribute to chronic digestive symptoms. These include stomach acid and digestion, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), gut motility, the gut-brain connection, stress, and the relationship between the nervous system and digestive function. A central theme is the idea of looking beyond individual foods toward the broader gut health "terrain"—including the microbiome, digestive function, nutritional status, inflammation, and other factors that may influence how someone responds to food. The episode is particularly relevant for people dealing with ongoing bloating alongside IBS or other chronic digestive complaints who feel as though they've already tried every elimination diet available. Josh also discusses why some foods commonly promoted as healthy can be difficult to tolerate during periods of digestive distress, and why personalized assessment can be more useful than endlessly restricting the diet. Importantly, several physiological and treatment-related claims made in the episode should be interpreted in the context of current medical evidence rather than as universal explanations for bloating. TOPICS DISCUSSED: Five Major Food Categories Associated With Bloating Why Bloating Can Persist After Eliminating Trigger Foods Stomach Acid, Digestion, And Acid-Blocking Medications SIBO And Bacterial Fermentation In The Small Intestine Stress, Vagus Nerve Function, And Gut Motility   If you have Crohn's, Colitis or Diverticulitis, be sure to check out my second podcast: Reversing Crohn's and Colitis Naturally.   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

    294: The Most Important Story You Tell Is The One You Tell Yourself - with Kyle Gray

    What if the story you tell yourself about your health is not entirely coming from your mind—but is being influenced by what is happening inside your body? In this episode of ReversABLE, Josh Dech sits down with Kyle Gray for a conversation about the intersection of gut health, inflammation, biology, emotions, language, and personal identity. Kyle shares his own decade-long health journey, including Hashimoto's, gut health problems, fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, and the anxiety and self-judgment that accompanied them. His experience raises a powerful question: when your biology makes you feel terrible, how much of the negative story you tell yourself is actually a reflection of your circumstances—and how much is simply your brain trying to explain the feeling? The conversation challenges the simplistic idea that you can simply "think positive" and overcome chronic health problems. Instead, Kyle argues that biological health and belief can influence one another. Improving digestion and addressing underlying health problems may create greater access to positive emotional states, while the language and beliefs we repeatedly use can influence our emotions, behavior, physiology, and relationships. Josh and Kyle explore how gut dysbiosis and inflammation can become intertwined with anxiety, self-worth, imposter syndrome, and hopelessness, as well as how people can begin identifying the stories running underneath their symptoms. Kyle also introduces a practical process for examining those stories word by word—using language to move from helplessness toward agency and purpose. For anyone struggling with chronic gut symptoms, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune issues, fatigue, anxiety, or the feeling that their health has become part of their identity, this episode offers a different lens on the root cause conversation: not as a replacement for addressing biology, but as another layer worth examining.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Gut Health, Dysbiosis, Inflammation, And The Biological Origins Of Feelings The Relationship Between Biology, Emotions, Thoughts, And Personal Stories How Chronic Symptoms Can Become Self-Judgment, Shame, And Imposter Syndrome Language, Self-Talk, Affirmations, And Changing The Words We Use Finding Purpose And Strength Inside Painful Health Experiences The Practical Process For Identifying And Reframing Limiting Beliefs Communicating Chronic Illness To Family, Partners, And Healthcare Professionals The Role Of Hope, Possibility, And Changing Beliefs In Health Education   More from Kyle Gray: Website: thestoryengine.co Instagram: @heykylegray Facebook: Kyle Gray Youtube: Kyle Gray X: @kylethegray Listen To Kyle's Podcast: The Story Engine Podcast   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?
