The Digestion Starter Pack (Part 2) | PD Podcast Ep.106

Today is part two of our Digestion Starter Pack. If you missed part one, skip back to episode 105 for the first two tiers of the starter pack.

In this episode, we are diving into tier 3 and tier 4, which are food/nutrition and supplements, respectively, and covering how changes within those can help you improve your digestion.

As always, it is our goal not only to supply you, the listener, with valuable insights on the topics or questions but also to plant some seeds for further research and thought. Without further ado, let's get into today's episode.
