#1 Good medicine is similar to good gardening. The roots of a problem are usually the cause of it, and you can't just cover up the symptoms. You must get to the root of the problem.

#2 The root of most chronic diseases is gut dysfunction. The fight against inflammation is just the first symptom of disease, and the fight against it is just another example of modern medicine's attempt to keep individual leaves vibrant and green while the plant is dying.

#3 The state of human health is in crisis, and the state of our medical system is about to collapse. Doctors have no reservations about spitting out a diagnosis, ordering sophisticated tests, and prescribing treatments, which include drastic surgeries and radical combinations of prescription drugs.

#4 The gut is the most complex and important instrument in your body. It performs essential functions, and any dysfunction there causes symptoms in the unlikeliest parts of the body. The gut is a great trickster, hiding in plain sight.
