The gut is much more than a digestive organ. It is a metabolic sensing and signaling system that helps shape how we respond to food, regulate appetite, and control metabolism. Really enjoyed going deep on this with Andrew Huberman, from gut biology and the microbiome to obesity, GLP-1 therapies, and endoscopic treatments.
