This episode is brought to you by ButcherBox, Athletic Greens, and Joovv.\nThe amount of information we hear about COVID on a daily basis can be pretty overwhelming. I feel that this episode of The Doctor\u2019s Farmacy is one of the most important ones I\u2019ve done on this topic because it\u2019s an incredible resource for understanding how to prevent and treat COVID using a comprehensive systems approach. It\u2019s about how to heal on the cellular level. My guest is someone who has had an immense impact on my own health and my career in Functional Medicine.\xa0\nDr. Leo Galland is one of the most incredible resources on COVID and long-COVID syndrome. He is a board-certified internist, practicing in New York City, is recognized as a world leader in Functional Medicine, and a pioneer in the study of intestinal permeability and the gut microbiome as they impact immune function and systemic health. Since the onset of the pandemic, Dr. Galland has devoted most of his time to research on COVID-19 and to the education of other health practitioners in understanding the complex biology of the disease.\xa0\nThis episode is brought to you by ButcherBox, Athletic Greens, and Joovv.\nNew members to ButcherBox can get a free turkey with their first box at butcherbox.com/farmacy.\nAthletic Greens is offering my listeners 10 free travel packs of AG1 when you make your first purchase at athleticgreens.com/hyman.\nFor a limited time, Joovv is offering $50 off your first order with the code FARMACY at Joovv.com/FARMACY.
