On this episode of The Exam Room\u2122, \u201cThe Weight Loss Champion\u201d Chuck Carroll is joined by gut health expert Dr. Will Bulsiewicz to find out. The trillions of cells in the gut play a huge role in our day-to-day health and during the pandemic they may take on even greater importance.

Plus, could there be a shortage of fresh fruits and vegetables like what is happening with meat? Shortages of pork, beef, and chicken are sweeping through grocery stores across the country due to COVID-19 outbreaks at processing plants. To see if the same could happen with produce, Chuck is joined by Dale Moore of the American Farm Bureau Federation. Join them as they go down on the farm to check on how the crops are doing!
