Elle Russ chats with Zach Bush MD – a physician specializing in internal medicine, endocrinology and hospice care. He is an internationally recognized educator and thought leader on the microbiome as it relates to health, disease, and food systems. Dr Zach founded *Seraphic Group and the non-profit Farmer’s Footprint to develop root-cause solutions for human and ecological health. His passion for education reaches across many disciplines, including topics such as the role of soil and water ecosystems in human genomics, immunity, and gut/brain health. His education has highlighted the need for a radical departure from chemical farming and pharmacy, and his ongoing efforts are providing a path for consumers, farmers, and mega-industries to work together for a healthy future for people and planet.

I enjoyed the interview with Zach Bush, and have a couple questions I hope you can answer. First is that he advocates against using probiotics on the grounds that they limit the growth of a widely varied internal biome, whereas you sell probiotics. His points seem to make sense, and I wonder if you could address that question in greater detail, maybe with someone who doesn’t have an agenda such as selling his gut biome products?
Second, his thoughts on viruses as communicators and hence actually healthy got my attention and as I was just starting to wrap by head around the idea you were on to the next thing. Have you given any thought to revisiting that question?
I see he’s making the rounds of podcasts, appearing on Doctors Farmacy as well… would you consider having him on again?
Thanks, and keep it up!
We will definitely have him back on – yes sometimes podcast guests express different views than other guests and even perhaps views against certain supplements. You must do your own research and weigh the pros and cons of what you discover and make the best choice for you with your medical practitioner etc.
