#331 ENCORE: Parasites & Mold with Dr. Jessica Peatross

Show Notes

For the next few weeks on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I will be republishing our most popular episodes. This week I am bringing back this episode I did with the lovely Dr. Jessica Peatross. Jess is an outspoken medical doctor online that talks all about stealth infections with grace.  

People seem very interested in parasites. There was a time one of my parasite-themed podcasts had the most downloads for the year. I find them to be more annoying than interesting these days but Dr. Jess has a way with words and held my attention thoroughly.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• Types of foreign invaders from worms to flukes to chagas in the bloodstream from insect bites
• Worm life cycles and how they upregulate things like itching 
• Why worms are more active during the full moon
• How tricky parasite are to kill and how they can recur for months
• Why we get sick in the first place

ABOUT GUEST:
Dr. Jess is a previously board-certified internal medicine hospitalist who left her position as a hospital medical doctor to chase root cause answers for her patients. Today she is a force in functional medicine and has launched nutrigenomic targeted supplements as well as her membership platform, Wellness Plus, which helps everyone learn to be their own best doctor.
