Women’s Health and Probiotics — What You Need To Know

Probiotics are everywhere, from the supplement aisle to the dairy case. But what are they? Do they live up to the hype? Do you need to be taking them?

Dr. Gottlieb will give an informative talk on probiotics, including why probiotics are foods, not drugs; which types of probiotic are most effective; what they do (and don’t do); other steps women should be taking to protect their gut health; and when it’s time to talk to your doctor about GI issues.

Dr. Klaus Gottlieb, MD, is a board-certified gastroenterologist and internist who is committed to helping patients understand their options when it comes to digestive health. He was born and raised in Germany, where he went to Medical School. He then completed his postgraduate medical training in the United States. He became a US citizen and joined the US Naval Reserve shortly after 9/11. He is currently a Commander in the Medical Corps. In 2017 he and his wife Monika decided to leave Washington, DC, and the biopharmaceutical industry behind, and settle on the beautiful Central Coast of California.
