316. Dr. Alejandro Junger: Why Leaky Gut Is Behind Autoimmune Disease

Cardiologist Dr. Alejandro Junger joins Gary Brecka to explain how a leaky gut can confuse the immune system, why he believes dysbiosis sits behind most chronic conditions, and what the liver actually does during detox. He also covers how he uses L-glutamine, the foods and drinks he removes first, and his own experience with ibogaine and stem cells. Don’t guess, test.
