Welcome and thank you for joining us to learn how to beat bloating with every bite!
25% of the population complains about bloating. Most of us don’t even know what bloating really is, what causes it or what to do about it. In this video we are going to demystify that with an engaging and educational culinary experience.
We’re excited to have bloating expert, Dr. Ken Brown, our favorite gut check doctor, here to tell us how we can beat the national bloating problem, naturally. Along with expert guests.
Dr. Ken Brown
Dr. Brown is a renowned gastroenterologist and Gut Check Project podcast host. He is one of the top gastroenterologists in Texas and uses a mix of traditional medicine and natural therapeutics to treat patients suffering from a range of gastrointestinal issues. He covers various digestive health topics that reflect his work in bridging the gap between pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. A go-to resource in his field, Dr. Brown speaks about the food that affects digestion, leaky gut, IBD, and more, all while pursuing and disseminating the most cutting-edge research. Dr. Brown founded Atrantil, an all-natural supplement formulated using three natural ingredients that help reduce bloating and abdominal discomfort and restore healthy bowel movements while feeding the gut microbiome. An innovation in its industry, Atrantil underwent multiple clinical tests, including a recent study by Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine.
