Join Dr. Michelle Woolhouse as she talks with gastroenterologist Dr. Pran Yoganathan about supporting clients through diet and lifestyle changes for better metabolic and digestive health. Understanding that current discourse around gut health, optimal diet and wellness is a complex, and confusing space, Dr. Pran Yoganathan focusses on simplifying dietary guidance to focus on the intake of dietary protein and fats, while working with individual patients to lower metabolic risk and imbalances. Dr. Pran and Dr. Michelle discuss the benefits of referring to our ancestral diet and lifestyle practices to simplify our own diets in a world when we are overwhelmed with conflicting dietary advice.
