E262: Gut Health, Parkinson’s, and the Toxins We Overlook with Citizen Scientist Martha Carlin
by Kevin Danielson October 28, 2025
In this episode, we discuss the surprising link between gut health and Parkinson’s, how glyphosate impacts your body on a cellular level, the microbiome’s role in chronic disease, and so much more.
When discussing gut health, the conversation usually centers on the microbiome. While balancing gut bacteria remains essential, cutting-edge science highlights another critical component of cellular health: the glycocalyx.
When discussing chronic neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease, conventional medicine frequently focuses on a single narrative: dopamine depletion. While managing neurotransmitters remains a core part of traditional care, emerging physical chemistry and microbiome research reveal a far broader picture.
Every stressful experience sends signals throughout your body. Your heart rate changes. Your hormones shift. Your immune system responds. And one of the first places these signals arrive is in your gut.
