How to Not get Sick! Your Longevity Blueprint

- Nutrition
This episode is devoted to immune health. I have brought Thomas Pennel back again today to talk about immune health and advise us on which supplements to take to boost our immunity or for acute support when we get sick.
Three things that maximize immune function:
Building a good gut barrier
Building up metabolic reserves
Removing things that overstimulate the immune system
Guest Bio:
Thomas Pennel is an Account Executive who has worked in the supplement and nutrition space for a company called Ortho Molecular Products. After receiving a degree in Integrative Biology from the University of Illinois, a little health scare with his now fiancé gave him his first interaction with functional medicine.
After seeing first-hand how functional medicine impacted her life, this drove him to seek out professional nutrition companies for the opportunity to work with providers and help shape patient care.
He has worked with over 1000 clinics across the Midwest which has included a wide array of practitioners, clinics, and pharmacies.
He has previously worked with practices across Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania and now resides in Iowa where he currently works with over 400 active practices. He uses this experience to help providers consult and bring functional medicine to their patients with a strong focus on improving clinical outcomes.
