285: Parasites, Poop & Medical Gas-Lighting: How To Take Your Health Back - with Kim Rogers

Kim shares her remarkable personal journey—from working in medical education and helping build healthcare colleges across the United States to facing thirteen surgeries, debilitating endometriosis, neurological symptoms, chronic inflammation, and years of unanswered medical questions. After conventional medicine failed to identify the underlying causes of her illness, she began investigating environmental toxins, mold exposure, Lyme disease, the microbiome, and parasites, ultimately transforming both her health and her career.

Together, Josh and Kim discuss the limitations of symptom-based medicine, why root-cause investigation matters, and how chronic inflammation often results from multiple overlapping stressors rather than a single diagnosis. They examine the importance of gut health, immune system function, environmental exposures, microbiome balance, and the growing conversation surrounding parasite testing and herbal protocols.

Whether you're dealing with digestive issues, autoimmune disease, persistent inflammation, chronic fatigue, or simply want a broader perspective on functional medicine and root-cause healing, this episode offers a thought-provoking discussion that encourages listeners to ask deeper questions about their health.
