This week’s episode is about the complex relationship that our gut health has on our immune system. Dr. Tabatha interviews Dr. Heather Moday, a triple board-certified functional allergist and immunologist. They talk about the symptoms of leaky gut, and how that triggers your different types of immune reactions. Dr. Moday explains how leaky gut is almost always the root cause of diseases, like autoimmune disease, skin issues, and mood disorders. She talks about the pros and cons of advanced functional medicine testing like food sensitivity testing and stool testing to evaluate your gut’s microbiome. 

If you’re doing all the right things- eating clean, moving every day, actively managing your stress, and you’re still struggling (the weight’s not coming off, your not sleeping well, you have no energy, you have adult acne, you have heart burn, or fluctuating bowels depending on what you eat, etc...), then you need to listen to this episode. Most likely the reason for your imbalance is in your gut.

Dr. Moday received her medical degree from Tulane Medical School. She completed a residency in internal medicine and a fellowship in allergy and immunology, but then went on to complete a fellowship in integrative medicine with the Arizona Integrative Medicine program and is board-certified in Integrative and Holistic Medicine. She also completed her functional medicine training with the Institute for Functional Medicine and the Kalish Functional Medicine Fellowship. She started the Moday Center for Functional and Integrative Medicine in Philadelphia. Her center offers comprehensive lifestyle programs which focus on reversing chronic disease, as well as creating optimum wellness. She is part of the Mindbodygreen "Collective"- the wellness website's curated group of 50 experts in the wellness space.
