Podcasts about dietary

Back to the basics: what macros actually are, how to count them, and how to fine-tune them for your bio-individual needs. Most people can recite wellness rules - hit your macros, eat the rainbow, cut carbs, eat more protein - and still cannot tell you what a macronutrient is, how it differs from a micronutrient, or how to sort a bag of groceries by protein, fat, and carbohydrate. This Body Wisdom Podcast episode with Jamie Belz, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Master Health Coach with the Nutritional Therapy Association, rebuilds the language of food from the ground up. Jamie walks through nutrients vs. macronutrients vs. micronutrients, then breaks down the three macros in usable terms: Protein and amino acids, complete vs. incomplete proteins, digestion, absorption, and why a gram on a label is not the same as what your body can use Dietary fat, fatty acids, cholesterol, fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, satiety, and why flax ALA is not the same as EPA and DHA from seafood Carbohydrates as sugars, starches, and fiber, gluconeogenesis, carefully selected whole-food carbs, resistant starch, and why carbs are not the enemy You will also get a practical method for tracking macros without turning food into a lifelong spreadsheet: how to use Cronometer for a 5–7 day baseline, what 4 / 4 / 9 calories per gram actually means, a 40/30/30 starting frame versus average American intake, and how to adjust protein, fat, or carbs from your body's feedback — hunger, energy, sleep, digestion, recovery — instead of the latest diet trend. This is a Foundations episode for anyone lost in carnivore vs. vegan arguments, protein powder debates, and influencer buzzwords who still wants to be the steward of their own health. Future Body Wisdom Basics episodes will build on this with micronutrients, vitamins and minerals, phytonutrients, zoonutrients, and bioavailability. If you have been nodding along in nutrition conversations, start here. In this episode: What "nutrient," "macronutrient," and "micronutrient" actually mean Protein, amino acids, and complete proteins from real food Fats, fatty acids, omega-3s (ALA, EPA, DHA), cholesterol, and real vs. industrial fats Carbohydrates, fiber, sugar, starches, blood sugar, and whole-food carb selection Why hydration can mimic "I need to change my macros" symptoms How to establish a baseline, track food intake, and make small adjustments using hunger, energy, digestion, sleep, and workout recovery as feedback. Why eating enough deserves attention before chasing a different macro split. Whether macro tracking is brand new or already part of a daily routine, this episode offers a clearer understanding of what those numbers represent and how to use them thoughtfully in your bio-individual pursuit of health. The foundations of health deserve attention before the expensive gizmos, gadgets, lotions, potions, and biohacks. Understanding food is one of those foundations. Every body is a case study of ONE, and better nutrition knowledge makes it easier to become an informed steward of your own health.  SUBSCRIBE! Leave a review. Write comments.

Can the people around us influence how well we eat? In this episode, Douglas Taren speaks with lead author Halimatou Alaofè to discuss how support from family, friends, and peers may help people with Type 2 Diabetes make and maintain healthier dietary choices.

Dietary supplement exporters are welcoming a possible change to outdated rules. The Government's proposing to ease export and labelling rules, which the industry says could unlock an extra $500 million in exports each year. It's being hailed as a gamechanger for an industry already worth $2.3 billion each year. Natural Health Product Government Affairs Director Samantha Gray told Mike Hosking it will free up exporters from decades of red tape. She says we have an anomaly in our regulations where exports have to comply with New Zealand standards, which are circa 1985 and completely outdated.

Send us Fan Mail“Your tests are normal.” But you still have pain, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea. So what does that actually mean?In Episode 35 of the IBS Nutrition Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Nicholas Talley, a leading neurogastroenterologist and researcher in disorders of gut-brain interaction, to explain what IBS actually is, why routine tests can be normal, and what evidence-based treatment looks like.One of his most important points: IBS is probably several diseases, not one.For some people, gut dysfunction may come first and later affect mood, anxiety, or other symptoms. For others, stress or changes involving the brain may come first and influence gut function. The symptoms may look similar, but the pathway behind them may be different.We also talk about the gut microbiome, including why Dr. Talley does not currently recommend commercial microbiome testing to guide IBS treatment, and where dietary approaches like fiber, Low FODMAP, and Mediterranean-style eating fit into care.Then we move into emerging research on IBS, constipation, and Parkinson's disease. Importantly, having IBS does not mean you will develop Parkinson's disease. Dr. Talley explains what researchers are studying and why the gut may offer clues about disease mechanisms.Finally, we discuss an area that deserves much more attention: food avoidance driven by gut symptoms. Some people with IBS begin eating less and less because food triggers pain or discomfort. Dr. Talley explains how clinicians can distinguish gut-driven restriction from a primary eating disorder, and why prescribing another restrictive diet to someone who is already severely limiting food can make things worse.In this episode, we discuss:Why IBS is a real condition even when routine tests are normalWhy IBS may represent several different disease processesHow clinicians make a positive IBS diagnosisWhat we currently know about the gut microbiomeWhy commercial microbiome testing is not yet ready to guide IBS treatmentWhere Low FODMAP, fiber, and other dietary approaches fitEmerging research linking the gut, constipation, and Parkinson's diseaseWhy IBS may involve the small intestine, not just the colonHow gut symptoms can lead to food avoidanceWhen restrictive eating becomes a red flagWhy Low FODMAP may be inappropriate for someone already severely restricting foodTimestamps00:00 What IBS actually is07:57 Why GI tests can be normal in IBS09:51 Why getting the right diagnosis matters10:59 When multidisciplinary IBS care helps12:12 What we know about the gut microbiome13:36 Fecal microbiota transplant and IBS15:18 Why Dr. Talley does not recommend commercial microbiome testing17:05 Dietary approaches for IBS18:20 Why Low FODMAP is not a permanent diet21:17 Does Parkinson's disease start in the gut?24:45 Why the small intestine may matter in IBS27:36 Why IBS does not mean you will develop Parkinson's32:05 Gut-driven altered food intake behavior35:32 Which came first: restriction or gut symptoms?39:06 Lactose intolerance does not always mean avoiding dairy40:41 When Low FODMAP may be contraindicated42:46 What Dr. Talley would change about IBS care todayGet our help:

Today on Ask the Doctor, Dr. Michael Lange and Dr. Susan Summerton explored one of the most important topics in health and longevity: chronic inflammation—and what we can do to help control it naturally. Acute inflammation is a necessary part of healing. However, when inflammation becomes persistent, it can contribute to numerous conditions affecting the eyes, joints, cardiovascular system, brain and the entire body. Dr. Lange explained how an anti-inflammatory eating plan—especially the Lange Survival Diet—may help reduce the dietary factors that drive chronic inflammation. The doctors also discussed several nutritional compounds that work through complementary inflammatory pathways: • Re-esterified triglyceride omega-3 fish oil: Learn how Fortifeye Super Omega® and Super Omega-3 Max® support a healthier inflammatory response, cardiovascular health, brain function and ocular health. The doctors explained omega-3 index testing, the balance between series-2 and series-3 prostaglandins, and how EPA and DHA serve as precursors to specialized pro-resolving mediators such as resolvins and protectins. • Next Gen Curcumin® fueled by Curcugen®: Many conventional curcumin products have limited absorption. Curcugen is a food-grade turmeric oleoresin designed for enhanced bioavailability and broad activity across multiple inflammatory signaling pathways. • Black Currant Seed Oil with GLA: Fortifeye Black Currant/GLA provides 140 mg of GLA. GLA can be converted into DGLA, which supports the production of series-1 prostaglandins involved in maintaining a balanced inflammatory response. Dietary sources include black currant seed oil, borage oil and evening primrose oil—foods and oils many people rarely consume. • Fortifeye Rejuvenate®: This advanced formula contains Morikol® marine collagen tripeptides, a readily absorbed form of collagen that supports the skin, hair, nails, ligaments and joints. It also contains premium German-sourced hyaluronic acid to support joint lubrication, mobility and comfort. Dr. Lange and Dr. Summerton also highlighted Fortifeye Omega Relief Extreme®, which combines Fortifeye Super Omega®, Next Gen Curcumin® and Black Currant/GLA to support multiple pathways associated with inflammation, joint comfort and whole-body wellness. Dr Lange also discussed Fortifeye Complete Advanced Nutrtion multivitamin / eye vitamin. He claims to have changed this formulation 17 times in the last 20 years and there isn't anything quite like it on the market. He also promoted an omega 3 website called www.healthbenefitsofomega3.com The doctors answered many excellent listener calls, making this another informative and engaging episode of Ask the Doctor.

Send us Fan MailControlled human feeding trials show added fructose raises liver fat, triglycerides, uric acid, and insulin resistance at real-world doses.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Glucose vs Fructose in the Liver: Glucose and fructose are handled by the liver in distinct ways.Natural Sugars vs Processed Sugars: Whole fruit is mostly water, fiber, and micronutrients at modest sugar density; cookies and sodas pack far more sugar per weight and are easier to overconsume.HFCS on Store Shelves: Industry cites 55% fructose for beverages, but independent assays of sodas often land higher (around 60% on average, up to ~68%) with no tight standard of identity.Sucrose vs HFCS: In head-to-head controlled feeding, matched-calorie sucrose (~50/50) and HFCS (55/45) moved risk factors similarly versus an aspartame control; total dose mattered more than that small ratio gap.Dose Response: At roughly 10%, 17.5%, and 25% of energy as HFCS beverages, LDL, triglycerides, apoB, uric acid, liver fat, and insulin sensitivity worsen in a dose-dependent way.Fructose vs Glucose Beverages (10 Weeks): Fructose—not matched glucose—raised 24-h uric acid, RBP-4, and other biomarkers in overweight/obese adults.Fructose × Glucose Interaction: In some comparisons, HFCS raised LDL/apoB more than fructose alone, consistent with glucose amplifying the lipid signal.Orange Juice vs Sucrose Beverage: On a fully provided diet, both raised apoB/LDL/postprandial triglycerides even with slight weight loss; OJ lowered uric acid while sucrose did not.Support the showSupport my work:Good Chemistry: Personalized, science-based health consulting.

One of the most extraordinary findings in all of pain medicine had been lost down the memory hole.

Study session scripture: Romans 14:1-12As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ died and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.” So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.Study session topics:Mutual acceptance between strong and weak, part 1 A call for the “strong” in faith to accept those “weak” in faith (v. 1) Dietary differences (vv. 2-4) 4 principles to keep us from scorning fellow believers Other Christians answer to God God has accepted other Christians as they are Other Christians stand by the grace of God just as you do You too are accountable to God Differences in special days (vv. 5-6) 3 principles for how Christians should conduct themselves in disputable matters Be convinced in your own mind Serve the Lord Give thanks Further calls to unity (vv. 7-12) Paul's reason for speaking as he does: unity Modern-day disputable mattersStudy session audio: S4 E33: Romans 14:1-12 Download

In this Supplement Ingredients Series episode, Nurse Doza breaks down phosphatidylcholine—the phospholipid that makes up much of every cell membrane you have. He explains why your liver and brain hold the biggest stores of it, how the liver uses phosphatidylcholine to package and move fat, and why choline is the precursor your brain needs for acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter behind focus and memory. He also shares the simple two-capsule morning routine he's used for years. FEATURED PARTNER BodyBio PC is a phospholipid complex—not a choline salt—which means it delivers phosphatidylcholine in the form your cell membranes are actually built from. That's exactly the distinction Nurse Doza draws in this episode: after cycling through different sources and forms over the years, this is the one that stuck. It's stimulant-free, and his routine is two capsules in the morning on an empty stomach.

Despite being the most studied supplement of all time, creatine is making a big resurgence. That's why we decided to rebroadcast this highly informative episode, that is more relevant now, than when it was originally posted. It's been the hot topic in the health podcast space, as new scientific evidence is showing creatine is about more than looking big, but has big and important effects on brain health and overall longevity. But, like all things, creatine needs to be handled with care. It needs to be the right type, at the right dose, at the right times, with the right movement and for the right person. That's why it was fundamentally important for me to get a true creatine expert on the show, Dr Darren Candow.Dr. Darren Candow is a professor specializing in exercise physiology, nutrition, and aging. He supervises the Aging Muscle and Bone Health Laboratory, where the primary research focus is to develop effective lifestyle interventions involving nutrition—primarily creatine monohydrate—and physical activity, particularly resistance training.

Episode Description: Over 21 million women in the United States are dealing with bacterial vaginosis right now. Most of them have never told a single person. Not their doctor, not their closest friend, not their partner. Because somewhere along the way we decided this was not something we talk about. Today we will talk about it. Danielle spent five years cycling through antibiotics, specialists, Reddit rabbit holes, and remedies that did not work. When she finally told her then new boyfriend Hans, he did not run. He asked how he could help. Hans happened to come from a family that had been manufacturing dietary supplements for 30 years. What came out of that conversation became Happy V, a vaginal probiotic that does not just feed the good bacteria but hunts down the bad ones. Danielle and Hans break it down — in order: Take 1: "Antibiotics eliminate all the bacteria — and then it comes right back" Danielle explains why the standard treatment for BV sets women up for a revolving cycle of reinfection. She breaks down what is actually happening in the vaginal microbiome and why the conventional approach keeps missing the root cause. Take 2: "The shame around BV is destroying relationships" From new couples to long marriages, BV is ending intimacy and keeping women isolated in embarrassment. Hans and Danielle share what that conversation looked like for them and why having it honestly changed everything. Take 3: "Not all probiotics are the same and most gummies are basically useless" Hans pulls back the curtain on how the supplement industry actually works and why most probiotic products on the shelf cannot deliver what they promise. He explains what three things a label has to show before a probiotic is worth buying. Take 4: "Probiotics hate water, acid, and heat — which is everything a gummy is made of" This one will make you look at your cabinet differently. Hans explains exactly why the gummy format destroys the very bacteria you are trying to consume and what format actually protects them. Take 5: "Give it time — anyone telling you this works overnight is lying to you" Dietary supplements are not magic and the marketing around vaginal health is especially aggressive. Danielle and Hans give the honest timeline and explain what patience actually looks like when you have the right product. In this episode, you'll discover:  • Why recurring BV is not a hygiene problem, what is actually driving the imbalance, and why the antibiotic cycle keeps women stuck instead of healed  • How to read a probiotic label and what three things the International Probiotic Association says must be present for a product to actually be legitimate  • Why the vaginal microbiome is one of the most undertreated areas of women's health and how an imbalanced pH affects everything from intimacy to confidence to daily comfort This one is for every woman who has suffered in silence and every partner who wants to understand.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Kirstie Lawton PhD, a registered nutritional therapy practitioner and registered nutritionist with 25 years of experience, who now specialises in Parkinson's disease and motor neurone disease. We explore what's really happening in the brain and body with Parkinson's, the early non-motor symptoms that can appear decades before diagnosis, and the emerging research into misfolded alpha-synuclein proteins that suggests Parkinson's may begin in the gut long before it reaches the brain. Kirstie also shares her own personal health journey, and how nutrition — from levodopa timing to the Mediterranean diet — can support people living with this condition. Key discussion points: What Parkinson's disease is and how it affects the brain Motor and non-motor symptoms, and why early signs are so easily missed The gut-brain axis and the role of the vagus nerve Genetic and environmental risk factors, including pesticide exposure How nutrition can support conventional Parkinson's medication Dietary approaches: Mediterranean, MIND and keto-flex diets Kirstie's own health story and why she moved into this field This episode is sponsored by Revive Active — 26 active ingredients for energy, immunity and heart health, available in Boots, Holland & Barrett, Whole Foods and independent health stores nationwide, and online at reviveactive.com To work with Nicola one-to-one, explore her Hormone Insights & Support Service, the Liberate Food Freedom course, or practitioner mentoring, visit www.nicola-moore.com One-to-One Nutritional Therapy  Hormone Insights & Support Service  Liberate Food Freedom Course  Nutrition Practitioner and Student Mentoring Groups Website | Facebook | Instagram

Meats. Often the centerpiece of the meal, meats offer a nutritional profile that is impossible to replicate without them or supplements. Not all meats are created equal though. In this video I break down the relative nutritional profiles to see which ones you should be building your meal plan around, and which ones are best left on the shelf.  

Sarah Firman explores how dietary management can rapidly reduce phytanic acid levels in adult Refsum disease.

Why can two people with similar LDL levels experience radically different cardiovascular outcomes?  In this episode, I speak with Peter Anderson about the possibility that endothelial nitric oxide may be one of the major variables separating these outcomes.We explore whether nitric oxide can be understood as a protective “bank” that is progressively depleted by ageing, hypertension, smoking, insulin resistance, obesity, sleep deprivation, psychological stress and circadian disruption.We also discuss dietary nitrate, rocket and beetroot, oral bacteria, sunlight, ultraviolet A, infrared light, movement, erectile function, flow-mediated dilation, ketosis, statins, calcium scores and the emerging controversy surrounding coronary CT analysis in lean-mass hyper-responders.CONSULT DR MAX

Dementia is a metabolic disease, not a genetic one. Here's what's really destroying your brain, and how to prevent and possibly even reverse it. Dr. Anthony Chaffee MD.  

Roughly half of the average American's daily calories now come from ultra-processed foods — and cutting them out changes how you feel faster than you'd expect. Nurse Doza breaks down five shifts that show up within weeks: steadier blood sugar and energy, a healing gut, lower inflammation, clearer thinking, and hunger hormones that finally reset. Learn what really separates processed from ultra-processed food, and why just two weeks of whole food can change everything. Featured Product: Boost by MSW Nutrition When you're riding the ultra-processed blood-sugar roller coaster, energy is the first casualty — the mid-afternoon crash, the brain fog, the reach for the next quick fix. Boost is the multivitamin you can actually feel: 2,500 mcg of methylated B12, a full multivitamin plus B-complex, electrolytes, and plant-based antioxidants including S-acetyl-L-glutathione. Clean, slow-release energy from one stick in water — no added sugar, no crash — so real food finally has a fair shot at steadying you out.

Most people who fail to reach their fat loss goals aren't failing because of metabolic damage, weight loss resistance, or genetic disadvantages.They're failing because they're making specific dietary mistakes that erode the deficit they think they're in.And here's the thing most dieters don't realize. These mistakes aren't about lacking discipline or willpower. They're blind spots. They happen unconsciously, they happen to intelligent and successful people, and they happen to coaches and fitness professionals just as much as they happen to the general population.In this episode, we cover the four most common dietary mistakes I see derailing smart dieters — the misestimation patterns, the tracking blind spots, the Weekday Dieter trap, and the restaurant eating discrepancies that erode deficits without dieters realizing it.Because once you understand exactly where the gap between perceived intake and actual intake comes from, you can close that gap and finally unlock the progress you've been working for.HERE'S WHAT WE COVER:WHY MOST DIETERS WHO FEEL LIKE THEY'RE DOING EVERYTHING RIGHT AREN'T LOSING FATTHE RESEARCH ON WHY UNDERREPORTING CALORIE INTAKE IS UNIVERSAL ACROSS ALL POPULATIONSWHY UNDERREPORTING GETS WORSE THE DEEPER YOU GET INTO A FAT LOSS PHASECALORIE AMNESIA AND WHY BITES, LICKS, TASTES AND SIPS DON'T REGISTER AS EATINGTHE FDA LABELING LOOPHOLES THAT LET PRODUCTS LABEL THEMSELVES AS ZERO CALORIESWHY YOU SHOULD COUNT TOTAL CARBS RATHER THAN NET CARBS ON PROTEIN BARSTHE QUEST BAR EXAMPLE AND THE 70-80 CALORIE UNDERTRACKING DISCREPANCYHOW TO TRACK ALCOHOL CORRECTLY WHEN YOUR APP DOESN'T HAVE AN ALCOHOL MACRO FIELDTHE NUTRITION TRACKING AUDIT INTERVENTION I USE WITH CLIENTS WHO HAVE STALLEDTHE WEEKDAY DIETER PATTERN AND WHY WEEKENDS QUIETLY ERASE WEEKDAY DEFICITSDIET PURGATORY AND WHY YOU CAN MENTALLY FEEL RESTRICTED WITHOUT BEING IN A DEFICITWHY RESTAURANT MEALS CONTAIN UP TO 245% OF THEIR STATED CALORIE CONTENTTHE CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATION PROTOCOL FOR TRACKING MEALS AT RESTAURANTSWHY THE FIX ISN'T MORE CARDIO OR FEWER CALORIES — IT'S CLOSING THE TRACKING GAPIf you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things and still struggling to lose fat, if you've been frustrated by what feels like a broken metabolism, or if you've been stuck spinning your wheels wondering why your progress has stalled, this episode is going to give you the diagnostic tools to figure out what's actually going wrong and how to fix it.WHERE TO CONNECT WITH ME:Follow Brandon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brandondacruz_/For Info on Brandon's Coaching Services: https://form.jotform.com/bdacruzfitness/coachinginquiryEmail: Bdacruzfitness@gmail.comMy Reading Recommendations:THE MUSCLE & STRENGTH PYRAMIDShttps://getdpd.com/cart/hoplink/25469?referrer=1l54og96lf1ccw

Send us Fan MailFerroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death pathway driven by lipid peroxidation; chronoferoptosis, in which chronic stress sensitizes neurons gradually.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Cell Death Pathways: Apoptosis proceeds through regulated steps with surface “eat me” signals that enable non-inflammatory clearance by phagocytes, whereas ferroptosis and related pathways release cellular contents that can amplify local damage and inflammation.Ferroptosis Discovery: Work on glutamate toxicity in neuronal cell lines first identified a glutathione-depletion pathway termed oxytosis; parallel studies in cancer cells renamed and generalized it as ferroptosis to highlight iron's catalytic role.Lipid Peroxidation: Polyunsaturated fatty acids in membranes are oxidized non-enzymatically when ferrous iron reacts with hydrogen peroxide in the Fenton reaction, generating hydroxyl radicals that produce toxic lipid peroxides and reactive carbonyls that modify proteins.GPX4 & Glutathione: Glutathione peroxidase-4 is an enzyme that reduces lipid peroxides within membranes and requires glutathione as cofactor; depletion of either component removes this critical line of defense.Chronoferoptosis: Nine-day treatment of differentiated neuronal cells with chronic iron or glutathione synthesis inhibitor reduced GPX4 protein, raised basal lipid peroxidation, and increased cell death after addition of otherwise sublethal secondary stressors.Protective Compounds: Screening identified flavonoids such as fisetin and sterubin plus synthetic molecules J-147 and CMS-121 that block lipid peroxidation directly or indirectly and, in several cases, also raise glutathione levels.Human Disease Evidence: Postmortem brain tissue from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's patients shows elevated lipid peroxidation markers and altered iron handling in vulnerable regions; similar changes appear in animal models of multiple diseases.Dietary & NRF2 Links: Compounds that activate the NRF2 transcription factor, including sulforaphane from broccoli and certain flavonoids, upregulate antioxidant enzymes including GPX4 and may support long-term cellular resilience.ABOUT THE GUEST: Pamela Maher, PhD is a research professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California.

Many listeners ask whether foods like spinach, nuts, and beans could be affecting their calcium absorption and overall bone strength. Learn what's in these foods, how they work, and what you can do to reduce risk.  In this episode, I share a masterclass recording from Dr. Kim Millman, a Stanford, UCSF, and USC-trained integrative medicine physician and osteoporosis expert, to explore the role of oxalates and their impact on bone health.  We also cover strategies to reduce oxalate impact safely, including boiling, steaming, soaking, fermenting, and pairing high-oxalate foods with calcium-rich foods. We discuss how supplements like calcium citrate and probiotics such as ProbioMed 50 can support mineral balance and oxalate clearance. Dr. Millman also highlights the importance of a healthy gut and bile flow to reduce oxalate absorption.

I've spent years in the operating room watching what processed food does to the human body from the inside — and in this video I'm breaking down exactly what McDonald's is doing to yours. I'm a medical doctor with over a decade of clinical experience and more than 20 years immersed in research and education. I've worked with patients, studied the literature, and tested these principles in the real world. What I've found is that the biggest drivers of health aren't found in prescriptions or procedures, but in a handful of powerful, practical changes you can make yourself.   Join my NEW 90-day Carnivore Challenge group on Mighty Networks below! https://dr-chaffee-s-90-day-carnivore-challenge.mn.co/landing/ If you liked this and want to learn more go to my new website www.DrAnthonyChaffee.com

Bloating, brain fog, fatigue, skin issues, food sensitivities, autoimmune symptoms—most people treat these as separate problems. But often, they can all trace back to the same place: the gut. And the surprising part is that you don't need digestive symptoms to have gut dysfunction. Because your gut isn't just responsible for digestion—it's deeply connected to your immune system, hormones, metabolism, brain health, and inflammation throughout the body. In today's episode, I dive into: Why gut dysfunction can show up as fatigue, brain fog, skin issues, hormone imbalances, anxiety, and autoimmune symptoms—not just digestive problems The biggest modern-day gut disruptors The Functional Medicine 5R Framework for healing the gut The simple daily habits that help build a healthier microbiome, reduce inflammation, strengthen digestion, and support long-term resilience Healing your gut isn't about perfection, restrictive diets, or endless supplements. It's about creating the conditions your body needs to repair itself. When you support your gut, you're often supporting your immune system, your brain, your hormones, your energy, and your overall health at the same time.

We've been taught to treat chronic diseases as isolated problems to be diagnosed and managed. But these conditions may have more in common than conventional medicine has traditionally recognized. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I'm joined by physician and researcher Dr. Terry Wahls, who transformed her understanding of disease after developing progressive multiple sclerosis. We discuss the emerging science behind mitochondria, inflammation, nutrition, the microbiome, and why creating health may be just as important as treating disease itself. We explore: What Dr. Wahls discovered about cellular health while searching for answers beyond conventional treatment Why mitochondria may play a central role in conditions like MS, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, depression, and chronic fatigue How food, sleep, movement, and stress directly influence inflammation, energy production, and brain health Why focusing only on symptom suppression may overlook the deeper biological dysfunction driving chronic disease What “creating health” actually looks like in practice—and how small daily habits can influence how you feel and function over time What makes this conversation so compelling is that Dr. Wahls' story challenges many of the assumptions we have about chronic disease and recovery. For me, it really highlights how profoundly nutrition, sleep, movement, and stress can shape the body's ability to adapt and recover over time.

After more than ten years of treating patients with a carnivore diet and studying the relationship between diet and chronic disease, I have learned that most of what we are told about healthy eating is not only wrong but is actively making people sicker.
