Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about Protein Doritos. Are these bold, crunchy chips actually a smart snack upgrade, or just clever marketing from one of the biggest food companies in the world? With 10 grams of protein per serving and a shorter-than-usual ingredient list for a Dorito, they might sound like a win, but is that the whole story? Jenn digs into the nutrition facts, the fat sources, the GMO disclosure, and that ever-important question of what "one serving" really looks like in real life. Could these actually be a better protein snack than a certain celebrity protein popcorn? And more importantly, do any of us really need protein packed into our chips?

Dietary fiber is widely recognized as an important component of a healthy diet, yet it is not typically classified as an essential nutrient. In this episode, Dr. Andrew Reynolds explores whether that distinction still holds, arguing that the traditional criteria used to define essentiality may be outdated when applied to modern nutrition science. The discussion moves beyond simply acknowledging the benefits of fiber and instead examines whether it meets the foundational requirements of an essential nutrient. This includes considering its physiological roles, the body's inability to synthesize it in sufficient quantities, and whether low intake leads to a meaningful and reversible dysfunction. Drawing on evidence from prospective cohort studies, randomized controlled trials, and mechanistic research, Reynolds outlines the strength of the evidence linking higher fiber intakes to reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, colorectal cancer, and premature mortality.  Reynolds presents a compelling case that fiber may play a fundamental role in maintaining normal physiological function and therefore warrants reconsideration within the framework of essential nutrients.

This is a Premium-exclusive episode of the podcast. To listen to the full episode you need to be subscribed to Sigma Nutrition Premium. This episode examines dietary fiber through the lens of a practical, clinically relevant question: if higher fiber intakes are consistently associated with reduced chronic disease risk, what intake level should we be aiming for to meaningfully improve health outcomes? The discussion deliberately spans from common online claims that fiber is "not essential" (and therefore unnecessary), through to mechanistic reasoning and the highest-quality evidence we have for hard outcomes and accepted intermediate cardiometabolic endpoints. Across the episode, we'll hear from six expert perspectives to integrate epidemiology, controlled feeding studies, and clinical guideline contexts. We will consider how the dose–response patterns, fiber type/source, individual tolerance, and the limitations of nutrition trials all influence what can be recommended with confidence.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this "Ask Me Anything" (AMA) episode, Peter breaks down the science of dietary fiber, moving beyond the blanket advice to "eat more fiber" to uncover what it actually does in the body and where its benefits are truly supported by evidence. He explains how different types of fiber—soluble, insoluble, viscous, and fermentable—affect digestion, satiety, weight management, and glycemic control, and compares their impact to other, more potent metabolic tools. Peter also examines how certain fibers influence lipid metabolism and cardiovascular risk, evaluates the strength of evidence for fiber's role in colorectal cancer prevention, and highlights why some individuals may not tolerate specific fibers well. The discussion concludes with practical guidance on moving past generic fiber targets toward a more strategic and personalized approach that maximizes the true benefits of fiber.

We've been urged to include plenty of dietary fiber in our daily routines, fibers that come from vegetables, legumes, grains and other plant sources. But there is an animal-sourced fiber that has nearly disappeared from the modern human diet: hyaluronic acid. Hyluronic acid has nearly disappeared from the diet because it is primarily sourced from animal products, especially organ meats like brain, skin, and tongue. But hyaluronic acid is a fiber crucial for the health of many human organs: skin, joints, uterus, cervix, vagina, arteries. It is also a fiber with significant benefits on the gastrointestinal microbiome that, in turn, yields substantial benefits via microbial metabolites. In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let's discuss the role of this important fiber and how to bring it back into your lifestyle to obtain its many benefits._________________________________________________________________________________For BiotiQuest probiotics including Sugar Shift, go here.A 15% discount is available for Defiant Health podcast listeners by entering discount code UNDOC15 (case-sensitive) at checkout.*_________________________________________________________________________________Get your 15% Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, low-carb snack bars and other high-quality organic foods here.* For 12% off every order of grass-fed and pasture-raised meats from Wild Pastures, go here.Support the showBooks: Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded ed

Like many medications, GLP 1 drugs come with side effects and one of the most common (and bothersome!) among them is constipation. Even if you're not taking anti-obesity medication, constipation remains a common problem for many, which is not only uncomfortable, but also detrimental to your well-being. In this episode, I'm looking at the pivotal role fiber plays, not only in combating this side effect, but also in your overall health and weight management. We'll dive into the practical ways you can increase your fiber intake and explore some of the other benefits of a high-fiber diet, including its positive impact on the gut microbiome.ReferencesIf you want to learn about the role of fiber in a lot more detail and have the opportunity to ask me questions, take a look at my mini course: Optimizing Fat Loss and Maintaining Muscle While on a GLP 1This course is perfect for you if you are going to start a GLP 1 or you're already on one and want to fine tune your approach and get the most out of your GLP 1 medication. Audio Stamps00:53 - Even if you're not on an anti-obesity medication, fiber is an important topic because a lot of people struggle with constipation.01:43 - If you want to dig even deeper into this topic, Dr. Rentea encourages us to listen to her mini course: Optimizing Fat Loss and Maintaining Muscle While on a GLP-1.

In today's episode I'm breaking down the incredible and interesting effects dietary fiber can have on your fat loss goals. Most people are familiar with the most common benefits of dietary fiber - increased fullness and better digestive health.But in this episode, I'm breaking down research showing that having a high fiber intake can actually cause us to eliminate more calories through our poop, so we're absorbing less through the food we eat. Which may or may not give us an extra edge when the goal is fat loss and improving our body composition.So find your nearest bathroom, grab some toilet paper, and let's dive in!If you learned something new from this podcast episode or found it helpful, please leave a rating, review, or share with a friend, family member, or on social media to help spread the word!Join Our FREE Facebook Group for more free resources, live trainings, etc:https://www.facebook.com/groups/fatlossforevergroup Apply For 1 On 1 Coaching:https://form.typeform.com/to/d2FuhjbC Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/joeygast_rd/ Subscribe To My Youtube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmg0VHE4W33iLZ-Df1fiFrg Check Out Our Client Transformations:https://www.instagram.com/ithrivenutrition_fitness/ TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@joeygast_rd

Dietary fiber is a broad term that refers to the non-digestible components of fruits and vegetables. Gut microbes break down certain types of fiber, releasing micronutrients trapped in the fiber matrix and producing beneficial metabolic byproducts, such as short-chain fatty acids. Fiber exerts a wide array of beneficial health effects, influencing metabolic health, and may be an important, if overlooked, component of ketogenic diets.  In this Aliquot, Dr. Michael Snyder, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino, and Dr. Rhonda Patrick discuss the benefits of dietary fiber.   00:00:00 - Introduction 00:00:44 - The gut microbiome influences glucose and cholesterol regulation 00:07:25 - Benefits of including a variety of fibers on a ketogenic diet 00:10:51 - Titrating carbohydrates when beginning a ketogenic diet reduces side effects 00:20:30 - Eating fiber-rich foods optimizes the health benefits of a ketogenic diet   Watch the full interview featuring Dr. Snyder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHJXh5zvOHU&t=0s   FoundMyFitness episode page: https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/michael-snyder    Watch the first full interview featuring Dr. D'Agostino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuIlsN32WaE   FoundMyFitness episode page: https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/dominic-dagostino   Watch the second full interview featuring Dr. D'Agostino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUoCasS4Evg   FoundMyFitness episode page: https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/dominic-dagostino-2 Get more Aliquots! Become a FMF Premium member and get full access to our members-only podcast, The Aliquot, plus live Q&As with Rhonda, biweekly Science Digest emails, and more.

My guest is Dr. Kyle Gillett, MD, a dual board-certified physician in family medicine and obesity medicine and an expert in optimizing hormone levels to improve overall health and well-being in both men and women. We discuss how to improve hormones using behavioral, nutritional, and exercise-based tools and safely and rationally approach supplementation and hormone therapies. We discuss testosterone and estrogen and how those hormones relate to fertility, mood, aging, relationships, disease pathologies, thyroid hormone, growth hormone, prolactin, dopamine and peptides that impact physical and mental health and vitality across the lifespan.

My guest this episode is Dr. Justin Sonnenburg, Professor of Microbiology & Immunology at Stanford University. Dr. Sonnenburg's research focuses on how microbes in our gut impact our mental and physical health and how diet and your environment shape your gut microbiome. We discuss the architecture of the gut microbiome and microbiota variability in different regions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and how these can change in response to diet, environment or genetics. We explore the early establishment of your microbiome and how your mode of delivery into the world (C-section or not) shapes your gut. We also discuss lifestyle factors that can alter your microbiome and the integral role the gut microbiome plays in communicating to other organs, including your brain. Dr. Sonnenburg details his recent clinical study, which found that diets rich in fermented foods (but not fiber) increase microbiota diversity and reduce signals of inflammation. Additionally, we examine how foods typical in Western Diets (e.g., high fat, low fiber, processed foods) can negatively impact the gut microbiome. Throughout the episode, we discuss actionable tools from peer-reviewed clinical findings that anyone can implement, regardless of budget, in order to optimize their gut microbiome and health.
