| 0:25.6 | If you've been struggling with chronic symptoms, it's possible that an infection could be underlying where these non-responsive symptoms are coming from. |
| 0:34.4 | In fact, over the past couple years, I've really honed in on certain |
| 0:38.0 | types of infections that seem to be the root cause for a decent subset of people. And interestingly, |
| 0:47.8 | these are not gastrointestinal infections, so we're not talking some sort of intestinal |
| 0:52.6 | parasite or something of that sort, nor do they seem to be |
| 0:56.9 | some sort of chronic virus like reactivation of Epstein-Barr, which can be problematic, perhaps, |
| 1:02.4 | for some people. So what I'd like to do today is cover what these organisms are, |
| 1:08.0 | give you a checklist of the symptoms so that if you see a number |
| 1:11.8 | of these symptoms in yourself, you can be prompted to take action. Now regarding action, |
| 1:18.0 | that could involve testing. And I'll share the testing options. But in addition to this, |
| 1:22.6 | I'm really excited about a questionnaire, the MSS-38, as it's called, which has been validated to be |
| 1:29.6 | correlating or predictive of if one of these infections is present. So it takes one potential |
| 1:36.3 | financial hurdle of having to go and perform a blood test in order to quantify if you have |
| 1:43.6 | one of these infections. And then finally, |
| 1:46.3 | close with some treatment options. Now, knowing that so many in our audience care about their |
| 1:53.6 | gut health, which is just awesome, it's so important, it's such a foundational aspect, |
| 1:58.1 | I did want to lead with a very, in my view, pivotal study by Dr. Michael |
| 2:04.6 | Erdman, and here is what he found. Quoting, our data suggests that one should consider an |
| 2:10.8 | underlying microbial or infection etiology for chronic and unexplained digestive conditions that do not resolve. |
