Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast

In 2016, the USDA dropped the official definition of grass-fed. Technically, all cows are grass-fed until the last 3 to 6 months of their lives, when they're typically fattened with grains. However, despite misleading food labels, over 99% of beef in the store is not truly grass-fed. Cows are fed grains to quickly fatten them up, but these aren't “healthy” grains like many people assume. Cows in feedlots are fed DDGS (dried distillers grain with solubles), a cheap waste product of GMO, inedible dent corn used for making ethanol. This is incredibly profitable because it causes the cows to gain weight quickly for very little cost. Fiber, limestone, and synthetic vitamins and minerals are added to this corn byproduct. Monensin, an antibiotic, is also added. Antibiotics are regularly used in feedlots in the U.S. to quickly increase weight gain in animals. Beta-agonists are also used to enhance muscle growth. Some studies have shown that the use of this medication in animals can cause anxiety in the humans who consume them. There are two types of feedlots: open and closed. In closed feedlots, the cows only get 24 square feet of space and around 150 square feet in open feedlots. For truly grass-fed beef, look for 100% grass-fed. Support small farmers for the healthiest meat and to help put an end to the grass-fed scam!Dr. 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.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers and Steve Wright explain why many people stay inflamed even after removing toxins and eating clean. The real issue isn't exposure—it's lost immune tolerance, and the solution is rebuilding resilience.   You'll learn about the five gut defense layers that regulate your immune system. Fixing oxygen balance, mucus layers, and gut cell mitochondria is key to restoring proper function.   They also cover how para-probiotics—dead bacteria—can retrain an overactive immune response. If you're sensitive to foods, histamines, or your environment, this episode lays out what to do next.   In This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to Early Childhood Exposure and Health Benefits 02:59 Interview with Steve Wright: Retraining a Broken Gut Immune System 05:26 Understanding the Immune System and Its Connection to the Gut 08:02 Challenges in Modern Health and the Importance of Gut Resilience 10:50 The Role of the Gut in Immune Function and Balance 23:04 Layers of the Gut and Their Functions 26:36 Mitochondria and Gut Health 27:59 Impact of Antibiotics on Gut Microbiome 28:47 The Role of Stomach Acid in Digestion 31:51 Resetting Gut Health 33:27 Individualized Diets and Food Tolerance 36:44 Repairing Gut Health: Steps and Supplements 40:32 Para Probiotics: An Overview 44:51 Healthy Gut Products and Protocols 48:46 Final Thoughts and Recommendations     Still cooking with seed oils?

In this episode of Keeping Abreast, I sit down with Lynn Oberstein Feder, a passionate mother, baker, and wellness advocate whose lifelong health journey led her to profound transformation—both personally and professionally.Lynn shares her early struggles with chronic illness and the cascade of misdiagnoses and overuse of antibiotics that left her searching for answers. We talk about the toll of conventional medicine, the power of homeopathic remedies, and the critical importance of finding a provider who truly listens.Her journey to healing began with food—specifically, the gut-healing power of bone broth and a complete shift in her dietary habits. Through her experience, Lynn discovered not just better health, but a calling. Motivated by her daughter's dietary restrictions, she began developing nutrient-dense, gluten-free breads that eventually blossomed into her business, Lynn's Life Breads.We explore how food quality impacts the microbiome, why ingredient transparency matters, and how healing can happen when you return to your kitchen with purpose and intention. Lynn also opens up about the energetic component of food preparation, and how family-centered cooking can transform health outcomes—especially for children.This episode is about more than bread—it's about reclaiming your health, trusting your intuition, and turning adversity into empowerment.Key Takeaways:Chronic illness often begins with overlooked or misdiagnosed symptomsOveruse of antibiotics can have long-term health effectsHomeopathy and integrative medicine can offer powerful alternativesHealing often starts in the kitchenThe microbiome is foundational to overall wellnessUnderstanding food quality is essential for lasting healthFamily-friendly, accessible recipes can bring everyone to the tablePassion projects can become healing businessesListening to your body is the first step toward true healthBe sure to Rate and Subscribe so we can continue bring you these life-changing conversations!00:00 Introduction to Lifelong Health Struggles02:53 Lynn's Early Health Challenges06:10 The Role of Antibiotics in Health08:51 Homeopathic Remedies and Cultural Differences12:00 Sister's Battle with Breast Cancer15:06 A Lifetime of Misdiagnoses17:55 Finding the Right Healthcare Provider21:03 Turning Point: Dietary Changes23:59 The Impact of Bone Broth Diet28:10 The Journey to Healthier Bread Alternatives31:04 Creating Bread for Dietary Needs35:00 The Science Behind Bread and Health39:52 From Kitchen to Business: The Birth of Lynn's Life Breads45:57 Making Bread Accessible for EveryoneTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with RHMD, visit: https://jennsimmons.simplero.com/page/377266?kuid=327aca17-5135-44cf-9210-c0b77a56e26d&kref=vOKy0sAiorrKTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.realhealthmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons

Antibiotics are critical to modern medicine, and have saved millions of lives since first being introduced in the mid-20th century. However, there are drawbacks to prescribing antibiotics when they're not actually required. Of course there's the issue of antibiotic resistance, which is seen as a major threat to human health. And there are also unwanted side effects of antibiotic use to take into account. After all, they don't only target the bacteria that are making us sick. They also kill harmless bacteria in the gut which actually keep us healthy. What's more, according to MedicalXpress.com, “this disruption to gut microbiome composition can last for up to two years after antibiotic treatment.” Other side effects include diarrhea and bloating. Is there anything we can do to protect our gut? Can antibiotics also lead to yeast infections? Do I have to go right to the end of my course of antibiotics?

The FDA is finally banning a few food dyes... but why are we still swallowing chemicals that Europe kicked to the curb over a decade ago? Your protein bar, your salad dressing, even your kid's cereal — they're all hiding ingredients that mess with your brain, hormones, and gut... and you probably have no idea. And here's the kicker: There are over 14,000 food additives approved for use in the U.S. — many of which have never been tested for long-term safety. So yeah, pulling Red 3 is a start… but it barely scratches the surface. As consumers, we've been left to play detective — trying to decode labels, memorize chemical aliases, and guess whether what we're eating is actually safe. So in today's episode, we're breaking it all down. What the FDA's announcement really means, why it's taken so long, and what you can do right now to stop being a food system guinea pig and start taking back control of your plate.

I'm your host, Chef Mareya — chef, nutritionist, mom, food activist, and the creator of Superfood Sprinkle and EatCleaner. And today, we're peeling back the label on something that should be good news… but needs a deeper look. The FDA just announced that artificial colors — like Red 3, Yellow 5, and Blue 1 — are being phased out within the next two years. Yes, they're finally listening to the science, the petitions, and the parents who've been shouting this from the rooftops for decades. And while that's a step in the right direction, here's the truth: it's not enough. Cleaning up our food supply isn't just about removing bright red cereal dye. It's about looking at everything that's slipping into our food system — and what it's doing to our bodies. So in this episode, we're unpacking the Top 10 Food Issues You Should Actually Be Paying Attention To — with real talk, real solutions, and zero guilt. Let's dig in.

What causes depression? Surprisingly, depression has nothing to do with your brain and everything to do with your gut microbiome. In this video, we'll take an in-depth look at the brain-gut connection and the often overlooked relationship between depression and gut health. 0:00 Introduction: Depression explained1:17 Side effects of SSRIs1:32 St. John's wort and depression2:27 The brain-gut connection3:22 Depression and gut health3:40 Depression and gut inflammation 3:51 Antibiotics and depression4:33 L. reuteri and mental healthDepression has consistently been viewed as a chemical imbalance, but it's actually related to a problem with the gut. Depression is often treated with SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), but many studies show normal serotonin levels in people with depression.SSRIs do not fix depression and have even been called placebos by some medical professionals. They also come with serious side effects, including sexual dysfunction, decreased libido, inability to experience emotion, and worsening depression.St. John's wort affects both serotonin and dopamine. It's an anti-inflammatory and reduces cortisol, but doctors and the medical world often recommend against it despite its very few side effects. Serotonin and oxytocin are made in the gut. Oxytocin is a powerful hormone that can help with depression and stress, so gut health is at the core of mental health. The vagus nerve works as a highway that orchestrates the brain and gut connection. If you have a problem with your gut microbes, this can lead to depression. Studies have found serious microbes missing in depressed people! Gut inflammation can also alter your mood. One of the side effects of antibiotics is depression. Antibiotics erase the good bacteria that control your mood chemicals. Once wiped away, microbes don't always come back, and you could be left with an imbalance. L. reuteri is an amazing microbe that many people are missing. Dr. William Davis has shared an expert technique for cultivating L. reuteri using half and half to increase its potency. People have consumed this probiotic mixture and experienced significant health benefits such as improved sleep, muscle tone, and reduced stress. L. reuteri acts as a natural antibiotic without side effects and is found naturally in breast milk.

What do your skin, your gut, and your daily habits have in common?  Dr. Mary Alice Mina and Dr. Katrina Coulter take a deep dive into the powerful connection between gut health, skin health, and the impact of today's food systems. They explore the importance of maintaining a healthy microbiome through a diverse, fiber-rich diet, fermented foods, and mindful antibiotic use. You'll learn how hydration, sleep, exercise, and lifestyle choices shape gut microbiome diversity—and why even small daily habits matter. They also discuss the effects of antibiotics on both gut and skin, discuss the role of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, and share insights into GLP-1 agonists and gut health. Plus, they explain simple ways to assess gut health through digestion and other key indicators. If you've ever wondered how to support your skin and gut without overcomplicating things, this is your go-to guide for simple, everyday shifts!   Key Takeaways: - The gut microbiome consists of trillions of microbes essential for human health. - Skin and gut health are interconnected, with imbalances leading to inflammation. - Industrialized food systems contribute to the loss of microbiome diversity. - Fiber is crucial for gut health, with most people consuming far too little. - Fermented foods provide beneficial bacteria and support gut health. - Prebiotics are the food that gut bacteria thrive on, primarily fiber. - Probiotics are live beneficial microbes that support gut health. - Antibiotics can disrupt both gut and skin health, leading to various side effects. - Minimizing the use of antibiotics is important for maintaining gut health. - A diverse diet rich in whole foods is essential for a healthy microbiome.  - Hydration can significantly impact health, including skin and urinary tract health. - Antibiotics are often overprescribed; not every condition requires them. - Sedentary lifestyles negatively affect gut microbiome diversity. - Basic lifestyle changes can lead to significant health improvements. - The gut plays a crucial role in immune function and overall health. - Eating locally can enhance gut health and biodiversity. - GLP-1 agonists may shift gut microbiome profiles positively. - Regular bowel movements are a key indicator of gut health. - Keeping a food diary can help identify gut health issues. - Skin conditions may be linked to gut health and dietary choices.

Story at-a-glance Type 1 diabetes affects about four in 1,000 U.S. children and is linked to the disruption of the gut microbiome, particularly through early antibiotic exposure A study from the University of Colorado Boulder found that there's a 10-day window during early life when specific gut microbes are required for proper pancreatic beta cell development When antibiotics are given during the 10-day window, it disrupts the growth of insulin-producing cells and contributes to the development of Type 1 diabetes later in life Another study found that maternal use of certain antibiotics before and during pregnancy significantly increased children's risk of developing Type 1 diabetes To protect your child's gut health and reduce their risk of diabetes, limit the use of antibiotics during pregnancy and infancy, encourage breastfeeding, use probiotics strategically, and provide them a nutritious diet

If your brain feels foggy, your mood swings like a pendulum, or your cravings seem to control you—this episode will flip what you think you know about your body and your mind. Because what if your thoughts… aren't really yours? In this mind-altering episode of The Human Upgrade, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals a startling new theory: your gut microbiome might be controlling your thoughts. From addiction and depression to obesity and inflammation, the microbes living in your gut—bacteria, fungi, viruses, even parasites—may be pulling the strings on your brain chemistry, mood, and behavior. Dave Asprey and Dr. Gundry dive deep into The Gut-Brain Paradox, exposing how the gut-brain axis operates more like a microbial command center than a digestive system. You'll learn why probiotic pills rarely work, how the wrong microbes can drive compulsive behavior, and how toxic foods, glyphosate, and antibiotics have turned our guts into neurological war zones. Most shocking of all? Microbes may not just influence addiction—they may cause it. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How your gut microbiome can hijack your brain and influence your thoughts and behavior • Why certain microbes may actually cause addiction, obesity, and depression • How antibiotics, glyphosate, and processed foods are turning your gut into a desert • How to rebuild your gut ecosystem using postbiotics, fermented foods, and precision inputs • Why food cravings might be microbial mind control—and what to do about it • What the latest science reveals about the gut-brain axis, neurotransmitters, and neuroinflammation Sponsors: -Sunlighten | Go to https://www.sunlighten.com/dave/ and enter code DAVE at checkout to save up to $1,400. -Timeline | Head to https://www.timeline.com/dave to get 10% off your first order.

Also, new research suggests the artificial sweetener saccharin could kill antibiotic resistant bacteria.Huh? The Valuable Role Of InterjectionsListen carefully to a spoken conversation and you'll notice that the speakers use a lot of little quasi-words—mm-hmm, um, huh? and the like—that don't convey any information about the topic of the conversation itself. For many decades, linguists regarded such utterances as largely irrelevant noise, the flotsam and jetsam that accumulate on the margins of language when speakers aren't as articulate as they'd like to be.But these little words may be much more important than that. A few linguists now think that far from being detritus, they may be crucial traffic signals to regulate the flow of conversation as well as tools to negotiate mutual understanding. That puts them at the heart of language itself—and they may be the hardest part of language for artificial intelligence to master.Read the rest of this article on sciencefriday.com.A Sweet New Treatment For Antibiotic Resistant Infections?Researchers have discovered that the artificial sweetener saccharin has powerful antimicrobial properties. A new study published in EMBO Molecular Medicine suggests that saccharin can actually kill antibiotic resistant bacteria by interfering with DNA replication and cell division.
