#677: The Intelligence of Symptoms Part 3: Nausea, Diarrhea & Heartburn

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared continues his series on the intelligence of symptoms with a look at nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and heartburn. These uncomfortable digestive symptoms may feel like the body is malfunctioning, but in many cases they are part of the body's natural protective response. Jared explains why nausea can act as an early warning, how vomiting and diarrhea help the body remove unwanted substances, and why simply shutting these responses down may not always be the best approach. He also discusses activated charcoal, ginger, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and supportive strategies for digestive distress. Finally, Jared explores acid reflux, the important role of stomach acid, concerns surrounding long-term PPI use, and why supporting healthy digestive function may offer a better long-term strategy.
