That lead him to dig deeper and find more answers and uses for polyphenols. Then he began to help his patients that were suffering from inflammation, not only in their guts, but their entire bodies, including neuro/brain & immune issues. Dr. Brown has tackled serious issues with natural and proven methods that his patients love him for. But he is not finished.

Hair Loss—The Hidden Trade-Offs

Think hair loss has nothing to do with gut health? Think again. In this off-the-cuff, insight-packed episode, Dr. Ken Brown and co-host Eric Rieger dive deep (and hilariously) into the world of male pattern baldness, Propecia, and the surprising role of hormones, enzymes, and even heavy metals in hair health.

🧠 They unpack:

Why blocking DHT might solve one problem but create five more
What COVID ICU patients and baldness have in common
How stress, sleep, and mouth breathing sabotage your hairline
Natural (and weirdly effective) alternatives like scalp rolling, rosemary oil, and even pumpkin seed oil
The wild rabbit holes of enzyme functions, erectile dysfunction, and heavy metal toxicity
And the million-dollar question: Can you keep your hair and your manhood?

If you’re worried about your hair, your hormones, or your health overall—this episode is a must. Smart, unexpected, and full of laugh-out-loud moments, it’s The Gut Check Project at its best.

💥 Listen now and rethink what’s really behind that receding hairline.
