He understands how difficult it can be for most people to get enough fiber in their diet, but he has created a solution to help us with that! Tune in to hear about incredible scientific research on fiber, gut health, insulin resistance and more.
Dr. Chris Damman is a Gastroenterologist and Chief Medical & Scientific Officer of SuperGut. He has a passion for evidence-based approaches to food & gut microbe interventions in the promotion of health and the treatment of disease. He spent five years leading the gut health, microbiome and functional food initiative at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, where his research interests focused on the role of diet and microbiome-targeted therapies in treating gastrointestinal, metabolic, and neurologic disease. Most recently, Dr. Chris helped execute a randomized, blind placebo controlled study validating the use of resistant starch to transform the gut microbiome - the first of its kind from a functional food company.
