The Gut Health & Longevity Summit 2026
November 7–11, 2026
Online | Free Worldwide Summit
Persistent bloating, unpredictable digestion, brain fog, metabolic changes, and concerns about healthy aging may seem like separate health challenges. Yet research continues to reveal important connections between the gut microbiome, inflammation, the nervous system, and the biological processes that influence how we function as we age. Understanding these relationships raises a bigger question: Are we paying enough attention to the role of our gut in long-term health?
This November, Dr. Monisha Bhanote, quintuple board-certified physician, bestselling author, and founder of the WELLKULÅ Institute, will host The Gut Health & Longevity Summit, presented by DrTalks. Bringing together 28 experts across 42 sessions, this five-day online event examines how plant-based nutrition, microbial diversity, and everyday dietary choices relate to digestive health, metabolic function, immune regulation, cognitive health, and longevity.
Across five chapters, the summit moves beyond common conversations about probiotics and digestion to address questions that deserve closer examination. How does fiber influence the microbes living in our gut? What should we know about emulsifiers and food additives? Why does digestive health intersect with stress, cholesterol, and metabolic regulation? And what does emerging research tell us about the microbiome's relationship with immune function, Alzheimer's disease, cellular health, and healthy aging?
As summit host, Dr. Bhanote brings these conversations together through her physician-led #CellCare philosophy, connecting the health of the digestive system with the conditions that support cellular function and resilience. In her featured sessions, Why Am I So Bloated?, Five Pathways, One Daily Ritual, and Is Your Cookware Working Against Your Health?, she explores digestive concerns and often-overlooked aspects of everyday health. Featured experts include Dr. Michael Greger, examining emulsifiers and food additives; Kim Murphy, discussing fiber and the microbiome; Ocean Robbins, exploring the value of plant diversity; and Chef AJ, demonstrating approaches to gut-healthy cooking.
Whether you're trying to understand persistent digestive concerns, make more informed food choices, or explore how nutrition relates to brain health and longevity, the summit offers an opportunity to hear different expert perspectives and examine the science behind these connections. Attendees will also receive access to 16 complimentary educational bonuses to support continued learning beyond the interviews.
The Gut Health & Longevity Summit takes place November 7–11, 2026, with free worldwide online access. Explore the science connecting gut health, plant-based nutrition, and longevity through conversations with leading physicians, researchers, and nutrition experts.
