Podcasts about antibiotics

Your genetics influence which fungi grow in your gut, and these fungi directly affect your risk for chronic conditions like heart disease Researchers discovered 148 genetic variants linked to nine groups of gut fungi, proving that your DNA helps shape your gut health Antibiotics kill bacteria but leave fungi untouched, allowing harmful fungal strains to overgrow and increase disease risk Two people eating the same foods can have very different health outcomes because genetic differences decide which fungi thrive in their gut Gut microbiome patterns, including fungi and bacteria, are strong predictors of cardiovascular disease risk, yet most clinics still ignore this critical factor

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Jane Jansen, a natural and holistic practitioner from the Tree of Life Wellness Center in Massachusetts, on the importance of the microbiome, particularly the role of probiotics, in maintaining health.

Jane Jansen, a natural and holistic practitioner from the Tree of Life Wellness Center in Massachusetts, focuses on the importance of the microbiome, particularly the role of probiotics, in maintaining health at all life stages. They explore the benefits of specific probiotic strains, the impact of prebiotics and postbiotics, and the use of Dr. Ohhira's Probiotics. Topics also include the relationship between the microbiome and mental health, the implications of commonly used medications like Tylenol on gut health, and practical advice for maintaining a healthy gut during travel and holiday seasons.

In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with Dr. Brian Thornburg, a board-certified pediatrician, to tackle one of the most overwhelming parts of early parenthood: newborn procedures and vaccine decisions.

As a leader it is important to take responsibility for anything that happened “under your watch”. Yes, you can check many things but do you actually need to? And what should you think about when you initiate treatment with antibiotics on an admitted patient.  

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Dan: my daughter 11 years old now has had for some time very large dense and hard bowel movements. our family doctor had her taking miralax at smaller doses but no solutions for long term. we have tried making sure she gets enough fiber and water but do not know what is causing this or where to start. i literally have to break up her BMs to flush the toilet . thanks for your help                                                                                                                                                                            Charlene: hello and thank you for all your help. my wife and i have been on a body transformation journey for about two years now. we have not reached our goals, our goal is overall health but are trying to build muscle and eventually lower our body fat percentages to a healthy number. we have been on a high protein diet about a gram per pound of body weight . i know this is not great for long term. how long is too long to be on this sort of diet and how should we best go about cycling our diet for best results. trying to get down to the 20 - 30 % body fat from 40 -50%. we also strength train regularly                                                                                                                                                                                               Dan: my teenage son has alot of acne. nothing seems to do any good for it and its much worse under his shirt sleeves. our doctor wanted him to take an antibiotic di something or other. we have tried a couple or topical treatments but nothing seems to work how do we get to the bottom of this?                                          Jean: I wake up too many days now with brain fog, extreme fatigue, no energy and headaches. Different parts of my body have discomfort. Thank you for answering my question.                                                                                                                          Sheena: Hi Dr. C! Hope you and your team are well. (This is the third time I've written in regarding this question). My liquid vitamin D says 1 drop equals 1000iu. . I was wondering if I can trust that? Because it seems soo little compared to a tablet. I end up consuming more drops then I need to, just in case.

This FREE guide shows you how: https://drbrg.co/470t2J6The gallbladder is a small sac that sits below the liver with the following important functions:•Bile storage and concentration•Regulation of bile release •Cholesterol regulation•Antimicrobial functions•Hunger and blood sugar control•Detox support •Helps trigger the antioxidant glutathione Bile is vital for the breakdown of fats, so you can absorb fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D, K1, K2, and omega-3 fatty acids. Bile can also help thyroid hormones work more efficiently. Gallbladder removal surgery is often the result of gallbladder stones. Gallstones come from a lack of bile. People are often told the following lies and convinced into gallbladder removal surgery:•There are no other options.•A diseased gallbladder causes gallstones.•You can't prevent gallstones with diet.•Gallbladder removal does not cause complications.•Post-cholecystectomy is controversial.•Gallstones that result from pregnancy require gallbladder removal surgery. Gallstones can be caused by high levels of estrogen, being overweight, and diabetes, but one of the biggest gallbladder stone causes is high insulin!Insulin resistance resulting from chronically high insulin levels can prevent the liver from producing adequate bile and weaken the gallbladder. A low-carb diet and intermittent fasting are the best solutions for gallbladder stones. Your microbes also produce bile, so anything that destroys them can affect bile. Antibiotics and low-fat, low-cholesterol diets increase the risk for gallstones.Fatty fish has the most potent effect on bile production. You can also increase bile with cholesterol foods such as butter, eggs, shellfish, seafood, and liver. Egg yolks and liver are high in choline, a key nutrient vital for bile production. Bitter greens, arugula, radish, celery, and sauerkraut can help make additional bile salts.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

One course of antibiotics has the power to wipe out certain strains from your microbiome forever. Like everything in health, it's all about dose and right use, but when it comes to antibiotics we are reaching for it too causally without grappling with the real-world consequences. Unfortunately, Martha Carlin was unable to ignore them when it impacted her family in the most fundamental of ways. She has since become a master of gut health, and is serving the public and fight against chronic disease with offerings of the highest quality gut medicine possible. Martha Carlin is a systems thinker, entrepreneur, and founder of The BioCollective, whose journey began when her husband John was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at age 44. Refusing to accept a future of inevitable decline, she applied her expertise in corporate turnarounds to uncover new approaches to managing and potentially altering the course of chronic disease. Her research  led her to recognize the central role of the gut, which she describes as the “general ledger” of health. In 2014, emerging science confirmed her insights, sparking her to leave her career and begin funding microbiome research at the University of Chicago with Dr. Jack Gilbert. Contact:Website - https://www.marthasquest.com/abouthttps://biotiquest.comJoin us as we explore:How her husband's “old person's disease” diagnosis changed Martha's life foreverHow to deploy specific bacteria strains for specific disease and wellness challenges using Martha's BiotiQuest ranges.How your poop quality and consistency can predict your risk of developing Parkinson's disease.Gut health myth busters - the hidden consequence of antibiotics use, the worst ones and why probiotics at your health shop are not what they seem to be.Mentions:Book - Missing Microbes, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17910121-missing-microbes Study - Peng X, Li J, Wu Y, Dai H, Lynn HS, Zhang X.

Has Antibiotic Use Damaged Your Gut Without You Realizing It? It's way more common than most people think. In fact, even one round of antibiotics can throw off your gut microbiome—especially if you haven't taken steps to rebuild the good bacteria that got wiped out in the process. So in this episode of The Health Made Simple Show, Dr. Bart shares what he's seeing in the clinic and how even people eating “clean” are experiencing gut dysfunction due to past antibiotic use. If you're dealing with issues like bloating, irregular digestion, cravings, or fatigue—and you've had antibiotics in the last few years—your gut may be asking for help. This episode is for anyone who doesn't yet know: ✔️ What antibiotics really do to your gut microbiome ✔️ How to spot the warning signs that your gut is off ✔️ Why probiotics alone usually aren't enough ✔️ What you can do now to start repairing and rebuilding Need to recalibrate?

About three-quarters of all the antibiotics in use today were developed from a type of bacteria that lives in the soil. But nasty bacteria are becoming more resistant to those treatments. So scientists are scouring the world for sources of new antibiotics—including the ocean floor. And they recently found a couple of good candidates at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean, off the coast of Norway.Biologists gathered many organisms during a research cruise in 2020. And they collected bacteria from four of those organisms, including a type of sponge and a scallop. The bacteria are similar to the soil-based varieties that have yielded all the antibiotics. But under the extreme pressure, cold, and darkness in the deep sea, they've developed many chemical compounds that aren't seen in their land-based cousins.The researchers isolated some of those compounds. And they tested them against a strain of E. coli bacteria—a form that causes severe diarrhea in young children, especially in the developing world.Two of the compounds did a good job of stopping the E. coli. And one of them did it without killing the dangerous bacteria. That's important because the E. coli isn't as likely to become resistant to the compounds that don't kill it.There's still a lot of work to be done to develop the helpful compound into a treatment for people. But the research demonstrates that we might find many new treatments for human diseases in the world's oceans.

Treating Lyme disease in elderly patients is one of the most complex challenges I see in my practice.Unlike younger adults, older patients often live with multiple health conditions. They may be taking many medications, which raises the risk of drug interactions. Kidney or liver function may be reduced, making it harder to clear antibiotics. And neurological symptoms from Lyme can increase the risk of falls, which can have devastating consequences in this age group.Standard guidelines don't always address these realities. What works well for a younger patient may not be safe—or effective—for someone in their eighties. That's why Lyme disease treatment in elderly patients requires individualized care.Every decision has to balance infection control with age-related vulnerabilities. Antibiotics may be necessary, but they can also increase risks like dehydration, C. difficile infection, or secondary complications. Medications for neuropathy may relieve pain but could also cause sedation and falls. And we can't overlook the role of co-infections like Babesia or Bartonella, which make recovery even more complicated.As an ILADS guideline author, I've emphasized the importance of clinical judgment and patient-centered care. For elderly patients, that means more frequent monitoring, lower starting doses, and close coordination with family and caregivers. The goal isn't just to fight infection—it's to preserve function, independence, and quality of life.So here's the bottom line: elderly Lyme disease patients need more than standard protocols. They need individualized care that takes into account the whole person, not just the infection.”

Why are we still treating acute uncomplicated diverticulitis with antibiotics?

In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, Russian drones breaching NATO airspace, Trump's war on Venezuela's cartels, Mexico's tariff fight with China, a pharmaceutical victory in Tennessee, and new revelations in the 9/11 families' lawsuit against Saudi Arabia. From political violence at home to dangerous escalations abroad, today's brief carries heavy news on a day of prayer and remembrance.   Charlie Kirk Assassinated in Utah: The 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University. President Trump called him “a martyr for truth and freedom” and ordered flags at half-staff. Video shows a sniper shot to the neck from a rooftop as Kirk addressed thousands of students. MSNBC sparked outrage with coverage that suggested Kirk's “awful words” made his death inevitable. Bryan warns, “The seal has now been broken: if you make those arguments or say those words, you're fair game too.”   Russian Drones Violate Polish Airspace: NATO confirms 19 Russian drones flew over 150 miles into Poland, with several shot down by Dutch and Polish jets. Bryan cautions that even an accident could spark a “Gulf of Tonkin–like incident” dragging NATO into direct war with Moscow.   Trump Escalates War on Venezuela's Cartels: After U.S. forces sank a drug boat killing 11, critics accuse Trump of overstepping presidential authority. War Secretary Pete Hegseth countered: “This strike sent a clear message: If you traffic drugs toward our shores, the United States military will stop you cold.”   Mexico Tariffs Chinese Imports: President Claudia Sheinbaum hikes tariffs on Chinese cars and textiles to 50 percent, aiming to shield Mexican workers and appease Trump's demands to close tariff loopholes. Bryan notes this could undercut Beijing's backdoor into U.S. markets.   Saving U.S. Antibiotics in Tennessee: Trump brokers a deal forcing Walmart and McKesson to buy amoxicillin from Bristol, Tennessee, rescuing America's last antibiotic factory from collapse. “Don't bet against America,” Bryan says, “because with leadership that actually loves this country, we will win.”   9/11 Families' Lawsuit Against Saudi Arabia Advances: A New York judge allows families to pursue claims that Saudi intel officers Omar al-Bayoumi and Fahad al-Thumairy aided hijackers. ProPublica reports al-Bayoumi was a Saudi intel asset in the U.S. coordinating with the GIP. Bryan calls for Trump to declassify CIA files: “It's time for some sunlight on what did or didn't happen that horrific day.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Take your personal data back with Incogni!

AI models have helped to discover new potential antibiotics to treat drug resistant infections of gonorrhoea and MRSA. We speak to Professor Jim Collins from MIT to understand what's next for his machine-generated medicines and the role AI could play in the future of drug discovery. A new report has found high rates of bloodstream infections and antibiotic resistance in central lines used in Indian ICUs. Family doctor Ann Robinson joins Claudia to understand the risks posed to already vulnerable patients. We consider a new review that found no evidence ketamine is effective at helping those with chronic pain, despite it being prescribed off-label for this use in some countries. Rwandan MPs have approved lowering the age adolescents can access sexual and reproductive health services without parental consent from 18 to 15. We catch up with BBC reporter Dorcas Wangira on what this could mean for the health of adolescents and the fallout of the decision in Rwanda. Finally, people with diabetes in India have long been told to steer clear of mangoes - Ann and Claudia unpick whether this advice needs to change.

In this podcast, clinical herbalist Todd Mansfield joins naturopath Lisa Costa-Bir to explore the under-recognised role of small intestinal fungal overgrowth (SIFO) in chronic gut dysfunction - especially in cases where SIBO treatment has repeatedly failed. Together, they unpack the clinical presentation of SIFO, from systemic symptoms to stubborn digestive complaints, and discuss how to differentiate fungal overgrowth using tools like organic acids testing (OAT), fatty acid fractions, pancreatic elastase results, and bowel motility assessments. Todd shares his comprehensive herbal strategy - including horopito, galangal, and magnolia bark - as well as probiotic, prebiotic and postbiotic interventions, with detailed commentary on dosing, mechanisms, and synergistic effects. This episode is a must-listen for practitioners managing complex or treatment-resistant gut presentations, offering a new lens to evaluate and address chronic dysbiosis, inflammation, and relapse-prone cases.

One of the greatest medical breakthroughs of the twentieth century is set to become one of the biggest threats of the twenty-first - but what can be done to stem the rising tide of antibiotic resistance? In this episode, host Caroline Dodds Pennock speaks with Liam Shaw, biologist and author of Dangerous Miracle: A Natural History of Antibiotics – and How We Burned Through Them. From the miraculous discovery of penicillin to the industrial-scale production that changed healthcare and agriculture forever, Shaw takes us through the fascinating - and cautionary - story of these ‘fossil fuels of medicine.' Together, they explore when and how the threat of resistance emerged, the roles of Big Pharma and industrial farming in accelerating the crisis, and the parallels with climate change in how we've squandered a finite resource. But as MIT researchers recently announced a breakthrough with AI designing antibiotics for gonorrhoea and MRSA superbugs, Shaw also outlines clear roadmaps for the future - including bold proposals for transforming the way we develop, patent and pay for antibiotics.

This week, Luis is joined by Dr. Ashlan Kunz-Coyne to discuss some of the newest antibiotics for urinary tract infections (UTIs). They explore why extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) are a growing concern, the impact of E. coli sequence type 131, and where new agents like cefepime–enmetazobactam, sulopenem, and tebipenem fit into treatment. The conversation also highlights clinical data, stewardship considerations, and how the infectious diseases and microbiology communities can work together to preserve these options. Plus, Dr. Kunz-Coyne reveals her favorite bug—Stenotrophomonas maltophilia—and why it's unlike any other.    Link to sulopenem episode: https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/id/35868135   Check out the website: https://www.letstalkmicro.com/ Questions?

What if your bloating, fatigue, or constipation isn't just “gut-related”… but a thyroid clue?Dr. Heather Finley explains why low stomach acid, sluggish bile flow, and post-food poisoning symptoms can be red flags in thyroid cases. She shares how conventional approaches miss the deeper causes behind SIBO, constipation, and nutrient deficiencies and how gut issues can slow thyroid hormone conversion. We also touch on practical tools like stool testing, mineral analysis, and even burp tests that offer insight when standard labs fall short.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Cristi: Hi Dr. Cabral, thanks for all you do and your amazing, well researched supplement line. What do you think about oral supplementation of high molecular weight hyaluronic acid for joint support as we age and things like osteoarthritis? Do you think there are better things to take, or if we are taking/doing the basic things you recommend, is this worth adding to the mix, or is it a waste of money? Thank you!                                                                                                                               Ali: Hello, I have a son who was born with multiple heart defects- AV Canal, mitral valve prolapse, and coarctation of the aorta. He had 3 open heart surgeries before the age of 1 to fix these issues, and by the hands of some amazing surgeons and the grace of God, he is now 16 years old and hasn't needed another surgery in the past 15 years. But because of his heart history, it has been recommended that anytime he has dental work done- even just a routine cleaning, that he take an antibiotic an hour beforehand. I cringe every time I have to give it cause I know of the ill effects. I've heard you say you don't want to take an antibiotic unless it's life saving... would you consider this one of those times? Or do you think it's overly conservative to take an antibiotic for prevention?                                         Anonymous: hi Dr Cabral. I have a Moringa tree growing in my backyard. Just wondering how you recommend to use the leaves and are they able to be eaten daily? I have dried the leaves before made a powder. Would this be recommended to have daily in a smoothie? Have you also heard of soursop and using leaves to make a tea? Thank you ☺️            Anonymous: hi Dr. Cabral. I am more of the vata body type and play sport (tennis/ netball) at night time a couple nights a week. I sometimes have trouble winding down, I love these sports as I work from home and love getting out to see people. Do you have any tips on how to wind down and what would be the typical workout week for a vata - pita body type wanting to gain muscle but not overdo it. Would three days gym, two days light Pilates or yoga plus walking everyday and sport be too much? Thank you                                                                                                                                                       Patrick: Hey dr.

Is it safe to eat foods with mold? You probably wouldn't want to eat moldy bread, but moldy cheese will not negatively affect your health. The mold on cheese does not produce a harmful byproduct like some other molds. Avoid moldy foods such as peanuts, rice, grains, corn, dried fruit, and coffee. Eating mold on these foods can be harmful to your liver and can even cause cancer. If you have mold or fungus in or on your body, it's probably not related to eating mold, but an issue with your microbiome. In a healthy microbiome, you have abundant good bacteria and are typically unaffected by fungus, mold, and yeast. When your gut bacteria are destroyed, fungus and mold can overgrow. Antibiotics, steroids, high levels of iron, and alcohol are detrimental to your gut microbes. Increased pH in the body can also contribute to the overgrowth of fungi and molds. Mold and fungus can downgrade your vitamin D receptors. Without sufficient vitamin D, your immune system can not function properly. Increase vitamin D to penetrate this resistance. Whenever you increase your vitamin D intake, you must also increase magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc.If you're deficient in zinc, your thymus will not function properly, inhibiting your immune function. Selenium is also vital to prevent infections. If you think you may be experiencing fungus or mold toxicity, try the following remedies: •Activated charcoal •Bentonite clay •Chlorophyllin •Cruciferous vegetables•NAC •Propolis•MCT oil•Probiotic foodsDr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan and is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.
