In This Episode:

What if the real reason behind your chronic fatigue, brain fog, or autoimmune symptoms isn’t your diet, your stress, or even your genes—but a toxic fragment leaking from your gut?

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. David Jockers sits down with Christian Yordanov to reveal the inflammatory chain reaction caused by endotoxins—bacterial particles that quietly slip through the gut wall and trigger immune chaos. And the wild part? Even “healthy” habits like eating more fiber could be making it worse.

When Good Gut Bacteria Go Bad

You’ll hear why some common gut bacteria, under the wrong conditions, can turn against you. Christian breaks down how endotoxins affect everything from mitochondrial function to mood, and why the gut-brain-immune connection is the missing link in so many chronic illnesses.

The Fiber Myth and the Inflammation Cycle

Think fiber is always your friend? Think again. This episode explains how overfeeding your microbiome with the wrong foods can backfire—especially if your gut is already inflamed. Plus, learn about simple, science-backed tools that help flush out toxins, repair the gut, and reduce systemic inflammation.
