#146: How to Personalize Your Diet and Feel Amazing

Dhru Purohit Show

Welcome to The Big Idea of the Week!

Good doctors know that almost every dysfunction and disease has a root cause. In the world of Functional Medicine, root causes are addressed by either adding things in that are missing to correct deficiencies, or removing obstacles that are getting in the way.

On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru Purohit talks to us about how to personalize our diet using an elimination diet. He explains the difference between a food intolerance and food allergy, and why testing doesn’t always give us the whole picture when it comes to foods we should or shouldn’t be eating. He also shares how he was able to clear his acne, improve joint pain, brain fog, bloating, and boost his energy and immune system using an elimination diet.
