The Nutrient Most of Us are Under-Eating That Boosts Brain Health and Fights Inflammation and Visceral Fat

This episode is brought to you by Birch Living and Levels. When you think of blood sugar regulation, weight loss, or boosting cognition, fiber may not be the first thing that comes to mind. But this essential nutrient does far more than just relieve constipation. It feeds our gut microbes, keeping them happy and thriving—and in return, they produce anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, immune-supporting metabolites that help us stay healthy, happy, and thriving. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re bringing you a special compilation episode featuring Dhru’s conversations with top experts on fiber and its powerful benefits for gut and whole-body health. Dr. Will Bulsiewicz breaks down the signs of inadequate fiber in your diet and shares his top four tips for improving bowel movements and incorporating fiber into your daily routine. Dr. Mary Claire Haver explains how optimizing fiber intake can help reduce visceral fat—especially during perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Brad Stanfield highlights psyllium husk as one of the most underrated supplements for boosting fiber intake and supporting overall health. Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is an award-winning gastroenterologist and New York Times bestselling author of Fiber Fueled and The Fiber Fueled Cookbook. Dr. Mary Claire Haver is board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology and is a Certified Culinary Medicine Specialist. Dr. Brad Stanfield is a primary care physician hailing from Auckland, New Zealand who has garnered over 200,000 followers on YouTube for his video segments related to longevity-promoting strategies.
