Today, I am blessed to have here with me Risa Groux. She was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that caused chronic inflammation and a host of other health issues. She became determined to find the root cause to reverse it without medications. With the proper testing and subsequent dietary and supplement treatment, Risa successfully and naturally reversed her symptoms. This inspired Risa to obtain her certification as an autoimmune specialist in addition to her clinical nutrition certification. This enabled her to help her clients focus on the root causes of their health concerns and treat them naturally through diet and supplementation. Risa focuses on foundational issues, including systemic inflammation, gut health, and lab testing to determine root causes. In this episode, Risa speaks about her Hashimoto's diagnosis and the importance of getting to the root cause. As someone who struggled with thyroid issues, Risa knows exactly what to look for in blood work. She explains which markers are critical to understanding if you have thyroid complications. Then, Risa discusses why she hates the word “diet” and dives into her book, FoodFrame: Diet Is A Four Letter. Tune in as we chat about why you shouldn't stay in ketosis forever, reversing insulin resistance, and which sweeteners are best for a ketogenic lifestyle.

[00:30] Risa Speaks About Her Background and Finding The Root Cause of Her Autoimmune Disease Risa grew up in a family where everybody was always on a diet. She was fascinated by why some foods are considered good while others are considered bad. At one point, Risa was having fertility issues. She found out that she had a low-functioning thyroid. The doctor gave Risa medication that she was supposed to take for the rest of her life. Eventually, she was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. Risa had no idea why her thyroid was attacking itself. [07:15] What Risa Will Test For When It Comes To Thyroid Issues Risa tests for all nine markers of the thyroid. Then, Risa will help people create T4; it is 93% of the equation. T4 needs to convert to T3; that is your active thyroid hormone, and it's only 7% of the equation. When Risa tests for hormones, she looks at free and total. Free means it's usable to the body, and the total is not useable. Plus, Risa will look at reverse T3; it's when stress hormones could be pulling T3 and reversing it. Also, Risa looks at T3 uptake. It's when sex hormones can compete with the thyroid. Lastly, Risa looks at TPO and thyroglobulin antibodies. [12:10] Risa Explains What Is Wrong With The Word “Diet” People associate diet with deprivation. We should not be depriving ourselves. If your children are hungry, you feed them. Diet has been marketed as a temporary deprivation for weight loss. In reality, weight loss is a side effect of wellness. Instead, you need to eat real food to lose weight. You shouldn't care about the numbers on the scale; instead, you should care about the numbers on the blood work. [16:35] Which FoodFrame Is Best For You? Take the FoodFrame Quiz: https://www.risagrouxnutrition.com/diet-quiz The first step is to detox; you need to clean your body. Unfortunately, the FDA has approved 86,000 chemicals for us to use. Sadly, most of them aren't even tested. We accumulate toxins in what we eat, breathe, and put on our skin. The average female comes in contact with 200 toxins before leaving the bathroom each morning. After you detox, there are six different eating lifestyles to choose from. You need to eat according to your health status. [20:50] You Can Reverse Insulin Resistance By Using Food One out of three children born today will be type two diabetic. Everyone has high blood sugar. We are eating way too many carbs, and we are eating way too often. High blood sugar will bring you into third state inflammation. Risa will look extensively at blood sugars. Remember, insulin resistance is 100% reversible. Risa will use keto for anyone who is diabetic or pre-diabetic. Also, if you have insulin resistance, Risa will suggest keto. Keto is not suitable for people who have fat malabsorption. Risa uses GI-MAP: https://www.diagnosticsolutionslab.com/tests/gi-map [27:50] The Three Sweeteners That Risa Recommends For People Following Keto There are three sweeteners that Risa highly recommends: Allulose Monkfruit Stevia [33:45] C-peptide 2.0 or Higher Means You Have Insulin Resistance C-peptide is our most stable marker for insulin production. You want that number at 1.5. Anything 2.0 or higher is insulin resistant. Inside every cell has mitochondria. The fuel for mitochondria is sugars. Those receptors are closed, broken, or hindered if you have insulin resistance. To gain weight, you need to close those cells. Another way to gain weight is to give your cells more than it needs. To lose weight, give cells less than they need. [43:00] Why You Should Not Stay In Ketosis Forever The two primary goals of living organisms are to survive and to procreate. If you have issues surviving or reproducing, you need to see why. Keto is great because it changes the fuel source from carbs to fat. Risa says ketosis is challenging to sustain, but it can be done. If you feel great on keto, then that's awesome! Don't use keto as a diet; use it as a tool. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. William Davis. He provides solutions to health problems by addressing the microbiome, massively disrupted in modern people. He shows readers in his Super Gut book, for instance, how to restore important lost microbes lost such as Lactobacillus reuteri, restored by using a unique method of yogurt fermentation that smooths skin and reduces wrinkles, restores youthful muscle and strength, deepens sleep, reduces appetite and provides many other youth-preserving and anti-aging effects. In Super Gut and in his website, www.DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com, he provides additional do-it-yourself-at-home strategies for benefits such as improved mood, improved athletic performance, better sleep, heightened immunity, and improved body composition. Dr. William Davis is also responsible for exposing the incredible nutritional blunder made by "official" health agencies: Eat more "healthy whole grains." The wheat of today is different from the wheat of 1960, thanks to extensive genetics manipulations introduced to increase yield-per-acre. Eliminating wheat yields results beyond everyone's expectations: substantial weight loss, correction of cholesterol abnormalities, relief from inflammatory diseases like arthritis, better mood, reduced blood sugar with many type 2 diabetics being freed of insulin and other drugs, all articulated through his Wheat Belly series of books. He is also a champion of individual self-directed health, as discussed in his Undoctored book. Dr. Davis lives what he preaches, not having indulged in a wheat-containing bagel, ciabatta, or pretzel in many years, while consuming various fermentation products that yield unexpected health benefits. Dr. Davis lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In this episode, Dr. Davis speaks about the inspiration behind The Wheat Belly lifestyle. Then, Dr. Davis dives into how modern life in America is messing with our microbiome. Many people think that probiotics will solve all their gut problems; however, Dr. Davis explains the issues with the commercial probiotic industry. Plus, Dr. Davis explains why you shouldn't cut fat when it comes to gallstones. Tune in as we chat about supplements, the best microbiome tests, and how metabolic endotoxemia initiates insulin resistance.

[00:30] The Inspiration Behind The Wheat Belly Lifestyle Every day, over 200 million Americans consume food products made of wheat. So, Dr. Davis created the Wheat Belly lifestyle. Basically, Dr. Davis dared to write an against-the-grain book exposing "healthy whole grains" for the incredibly destructive genetic monster they've become. Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what truly makes Americans sick and an action plan to clear our plates of this harmful ingredient. Learn more about Wheat Belly here: https://drdavisinfinitehealth.com/wheat-belly/ [04:20] How Modern Life In America Is Messing With Our Microbiome With each successive generation, the microbiome gets worse and worse and worse. In the US, most people by age 40 have taken 30 courses of antibiotics. There are 800 prescriptions for antibiotics written every year for every 1,000 people. Yes, many people do need antibiotics for certain situations. However, 30-50% of all antibiotics that are dispensed have no benefit to the recipient. [15:05] The Many Problems With Commercial Probiotics There are a lot of problems with the current crop of commercial probiotics. For instance, most probiotics don't specify strength. Plus, many probiotics don't tell you what strain you are taking. Failing to specify strain is a major problem. Some companies are doing double encapsulation because they've been fooled into believing that probiotics should survive untouched until it gets to the colon. One in three people has a proliferation of unhealthy stool microbes in the small bowel. So, you don't want your probiotics to be double encapsulated. That way, it can be released into the small bowel. [20:45] Why You Shouldn't Cut Your Fat When It Comes To Gallstones People think that fat causes gallstone. However, fat does not cause gallstones. General surgeons are guilty of telling people to cut their fat when taking out a gallbladder. When you cut fat, your gallbladder will store bile instead of squeezing it out. People who present with gallstones typically also have SIBO. If you're really having gallbladder symptoms, and one stone lodges in your bile duct, it is potentially catastrophic. Bile salts can be useful for your symptoms. Overall, the key is never to cut your fat and never cut your calories. [28:10] The Role of Vitamin D and Magnesium To Form a Super Gut Vitamin D has been now shown to amplify the intestinal immune response. Magnesium is an osmotic agent that pulls water into your bowels, and it prevents slowed passage of digested food. Taking magnesium accelerates the passage of food through the GI tract. Also, taking iodine ensures that you're not going to get hypothyroidism from a lack of iodine. [31:40] An Amazing New Test That's Very Simple And Effective For SIBO Mainstream doctors should be experts at nutrition and nutritional supplements. However, they are not. Unfortunately, there is the willful ignorance of things in health because they just don't pay enough. Davis says to check out Food Marble: It's the latest most advanced digestive breath testing device for people with IBS and digestive issues. Using the FoodMarble breath tester and app will help you find the foods that work for your digestive system. It's easy, it's validated, and it's all in your breath. Get the FoodMarble AIRE SIBO test: https://amzn.to/3sSDkVV [45:10] All About The Mucus: Why It's Critical For Your Health Mucus is in your membranes, your airway, your nasal passages, and your GI tract. Mucus is a lubricant and a protective layer. The colon is good at making mucus. However, the small bowel is not as good at making mucus. We're exposed to many things in modern life that screw up the mucus barrier. If you're not eating properly, you will have an impaired mucus barrier. [48:10] How Metabolic Endotoxemia Initiates Insulin Resistance People with insulin resistance will have a pancreas that overcompensates by increasing the production of insulin. When you have high levels of insulin, it causes fat deposition, and it blocks weight loss. How much does endotoxemia contribute to insulin resistance? Well, endotoxemia is a major driver of insulin resistance. When you reverse endotoxemia, you will see insulin drop. Then, you can finally lose weight. Read Metabolic Endotoxemia Initiates Obesity and Insulin Resistance: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17456850/ [50:05] The Best Way To Test Your Gut Microbiome Stool testing is evolving.

Compared to human populations following hunter-gatherer lifestyles, we have lost hundreds of microbial species in our gastrointestinal microbiomes. Many of these species performed useful functions in human health that we have therefore lost. Loss of these species has also allowed unhealthy, potentially pathogenic species, to proliferate and dominate, even ascending up the small intestine. This situation--small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO--is now epidemic, affecting greater than 1 in 3 Americans. And it takes a serious toll on your health, mental and physical. Your journey back to health starts by recognizing and acknowledging that there is indeed a problem. Then begin taking steps to correct this situation.

We are back with the next season of The Scope Forward Show where you'll get to meet innovators and leaders who are reimagining the healthcare system. The next phase of GI depends on innovators such as Aonghus and FoodMarble. Why? Because the industry is shifting from under our feet. Four trends are influencing GI: exponential technologies, consolidation, big brothers (such as hospitals, insurances) and changes in patient behavior. FoodMarble, a tiny device that analyzes digestive disorders such as IBS and SIBO, comes squarely in the middle of these trends. After selling 30,000 devices, what do they know about patients with IBS that a private practice does not? How can this be a new revenue-generating ancillary opportunity? The story of its growth is also interesting. An engineer gets an idea after seeing his girlfriend suffer. Ideates and develops the device in Ireland and China. Raises $6 million and sells globally - more than 2/3rd in the US. It's indicative of how the next phase of innovation would happen. Aonghus says, with "more data", you can come up with a "better diagnosis". True. Welcome to the evolving world of data-driven GI.

Also, if you have insulin resistance, Risa will suggest keto. Keto is not suitable for people who have fat malabsorption. Risa uses GI-MAP: https://www.diagnosticsolutionslab.com/tests/gi-map [27:50] The Three Sweeteners That Risa Recommends For People Following Keto There are three sweeteners that Risa highly recommends: Allulose Monkfruit Stevia [33:45] C-peptide 2.0 or Higher Means You Have Insulin Resistance C-peptide is our most stable marker for insulin production. You want that number at 1.5. Anything 2.0 or higher is insulin resistant. Inside every cell has mitochondria. The fuel for mitochondria is sugars. Those receptors are closed, broken, or hindered if you have insulin resistance. To gain weight, you need to close those cells. Another way to gain weight is to give your cells more than it needs. To lose weight, give cells less than they need. [43:00] Why You Should Not Stay In Ketosis Forever The two primary goals of living organisms are to survive and to procreate. If you have issues surviving or reproducing, you need to see why. Keto is great because it changes the fuel source from carbs to fat. Risa says ketosis is challenging to sustain, but it can be done. If you feel great on keto, then that's awesome! Don't use keto as a diet; use it as a tool. AND MUCH MORE!

Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO, in which unhealthy bacterial species have proliferated and ascended up the 24-feet of small intestine, is now epidemic, an epidemic that underlies common health struggles that include weight gain, obesity, pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, autoimmune diseases, irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, and numerous other health conditions. Solutions for SIBO typically involve antibiotics, despite being a condition that was likely caused, or at least worsened, by antibiotics in the first place. But I believe that we may have a solution that involves cultivating specific microbial species as a yogurt, something I call "SIBO Yogurt" that provides microbes with specific characteristics that may reduce or eradicate SIBO. AIRE device from FoodMarble:https://foodmarble.comFor the full instructions on how to use the AIRE device for detection of SIBO, the herbal antibiotic regimen we use, and the recipe on SIBO Yogurt, see the Super Gut book:My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Conventional "solutions" for depression are largely inadequate: often ineffective, with side-effects that include weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and suicide. Evidence is increasingly pointing towards the intestinal microbiome as a source for depressive symptoms. This tells us that prescription drugs such as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, that only address a step in the pathway of serotonin metabolism, do not address the underlying cause of many, if not most, cases of depression: disruption of the intestinal microbiome. Species such as Turicibacter sanguinis are proving to be crucial players in mood, while bacterial and fungal overgrowth, SIBO and SIFO, can also be common contributors to depression. The bad news: these disruptions of the intestinal microbiome are common and widespread. The good news: there are steps you can take to remedy the situation and thereby potentially have marked effects on mood and depression.AIRE device from FoodMarble:https://foodmarble.comBioGaia Gastrus tablets are the source for Lactobacillus reuteri: https://everidis.com/product/biogaia-gastrus/(From the North American distributor)My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:My new book is Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. William Davis. He provides solutions to health problems by addressing the microbiome, massively disrupted in modern people. He shows readers in his Super Gut book, for instance, how to restore important lost microbes lost such as Lactobacillus reuteri, restored by using a unique method of yogurt fermentation that smooths skin and reduces wrinkles, restores youthful muscle and strength, deepens sleep, reduces appetite and provides many other youth-preserving and anti-aging effects. In Super Gut and in his website, www.DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com, he provides additional do-it-yourself-at-home strategies for benefits such as improved mood, improved athletic performance, better sleep, heightened immunity, and improved body composition. Dr. William Davis is also responsible for exposing the incredible nutritional blunder made by "official" health agencies: Eat more "healthy whole grains." The wheat of today is different from the wheat of 1960, thanks to extensive genetics manipulations introduced to increase yield-per-acre. Eliminating wheat yields results beyond everyone's expectations: substantial weight loss, correction of cholesterol abnormalities, relief from inflammatory diseases like arthritis, better mood, reduced blood sugar with many type 2 diabetics being freed of insulin and other drugs, all articulated through his Wheat Belly series of books. He is also a champion of individual self-directed health, as discussed in his Undoctored book. Dr. Davis lives what he preaches, not having indulged in a wheat-containing bagel, ciabatta, or pretzel in many years, while consuming various fermentation products that yield unexpected health benefits. Dr. Davis lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. In this episode, Dr. Davis speaks about the inspiration behind The Wheat Belly lifestyle. Then, Dr. Davis dives into how modern life in America is messing with our microbiome. Many people think that probiotics will solve all their gut problems; however, Dr. Davis explains the issues with the commercial probiotic industry. Plus, Dr. Davis explains why you shouldn't cut fat when it comes to gallstones. Tune in as we chat about supplements, the best microbiome tests, and how metabolic endotoxemia initiates insulin resistance.

[00:30] The Inspiration Behind The Wheat Belly Lifestyle Every day, over 200 million Americans consume food products made of wheat. So, Dr. Davis created the Wheat Belly lifestyle. Basically, Dr. Davis dared to write an against-the-grain book exposing "healthy whole grains" for the incredibly destructive genetic monster they've become. Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what truly makes Americans sick and an action plan to clear our plates of this harmful ingredient. Learn more about Wheat Belly here: https://drdavisinfinitehealth.com/wheat-belly/ [04:20] How Modern Life In America Is Messing With Our Microbiome With each successive generation, the microbiome gets worse and worse and worse. In the US, most people by age 40 have taken 30 courses of antibiotics. There are 800 prescriptions for antibiotics written every year for every 1,000 people. Yes, many people do need antibiotics for certain situations. However, 30-50% of all antibiotics that are dispensed have no benefit to the recipient. [15:05] The Many Problems With Commercial Probiotics There are a lot of problems with the current crop of commercial probiotics. For instance, most probiotics don't specify strength. Plus, many probiotics don't tell you what strain you are taking. Failing to specify strain is a major problem. Some companies are doing double encapsulation because they've been fooled into believing that probiotics should survive untouched until it gets to the colon. One in three people has a proliferation of unhealthy stool microbes in the small bowel. So, you don't want your probiotics to be double encapsulated. That way, it can be released into the small bowel. [20:45] Why You Shouldn't Cut Your Fat When It Comes To Gallstones People think that fat causes gallstone. However, fat does not cause gallstones. General surgeons are guilty of telling people to cut their fat when taking out a gallbladder. When you cut fat, your gallbladder will store bile instead of squeezing it out. People who present with gallstones typically also have SIBO. If you're really having gallbladder symptoms, and one stone lodges in your bile duct, it is potentially catastrophic. Bile salts can be useful for your symptoms. Overall, the key is never to cut your fat and never cut your calories. [28:10] The Role of Vitamin D and Magnesium To Form a Super Gut Vitamin D has been now shown to amplify the intestinal immune response. Magnesium is an osmotic agent that pulls water into your bowels, and it prevents slowed passage of digested food. Taking magnesium accelerates the passage of food through the GI tract. Also, taking iodine ensures that you're not going to get hypothyroidism from a lack of iodine. [31:40] An Amazing New Test That's Very Simple And Effective For SIBO Mainstream doctors should be experts at nutrition and nutritional supplements. However, they are not. Unfortunately, there is the willful ignorance of things in health because they just don't pay enough. Davis says to check out Food Marble: It's the latest most advanced digestive breath testing device for people with IBS and digestive issues. Using the FoodMarble breath tester and app will help you find the foods that work for your digestive system. It's easy, it's validated, and it's all in your breath. Get the FoodMarble AIRE SIBO test: https://amzn.to/3sSDkVV [45:10] All About The Mucus: Why It's Critical For Your Health Mucus is in your membranes, your airway, your nasal passages, and your GI tract. Mucus is a lubricant and a protective layer. The colon is good at making mucus. However, the small bowel is not as good at making mucus. We're exposed to many things in modern life that screw up the mucus barrier. If you're not eating properly, you will have an impaired mucus barrier. [48:10] How Metabolic Endotoxemia Initiates Insulin Resistance People with insulin resistance will have a pancreas that overcompensates by increasing the production of insulin. When you have high levels of insulin, it causes fat deposition, and it blocks weight loss. How much does endotoxemia contribute to insulin resistance? Well, endotoxemia is a major driver of insulin resistance. When you reverse endotoxemia, you will see insulin drop. Then, you can finally lose weight. Read Metabolic Endotoxemia Initiates Obesity and Insulin Resistance: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17456850/ [50:05] The Best Way To Test Your Gut Microbiome Stool testing is evolving.

2.00" We start with an amazing simple, but amazing successful, business - making sandwiches in Warrenpoint, Co. Down. From one sandwich bar Brian Reid and his wife Jackie have built an international business supplying sandwiches across the island of Ireland, the UK, Europe, the Middle East and now they have their eyes set on the USA - where Jackie initially got her sandwich making idea. But sending sandwiches to the US - the world capital of sandwiches - sounds a bit like shipping coals to Newcastle. However, Brian has made DeliLites into something very special and incredibly, with their secret ingredients, their sandwiches have a shelf life of up to a year. So that's why he's looking for business partners in the US along with someone with deep pockets (and industry knowledge ideally) to fund that expansion. And we're not talking about loose change...they're looking for tens of millions of Euro. AND, they're developing their business to become a B Corporation.Of course, all of this didn't happen overnight, and speaking of overnight, listen to Brian about how, for ten years, he left his Sandwich HQ at 1am every morning, headed to Dublin dropping off sandwiches on the way, avoiding Dublin's gridlock by travelling in the middle of the night, and then home to Warrenpoint by 9am. That's what TeamGBS calls a gruelling schedule.DeliLites has expanded from a two person team now, employing 250 people currently and having just got £500k funding from InvestNI they're looking for another 50 people across all disciplines to help with their push into the UK where there's a Brexit opportunity as UK sandwich makers can't find workers to make sandwiches there. It's a fantastic story, including Brian's explanation as to what motivates him, and why Gary Vaynerchuk is his 'hire in a heatbeat'.25.00" Aonghus Shortt has a PhD in Power System Engineering, which led him initially to work in wind energy. However, Aonghus's career took a complete about turn when he tried to help his then girlfriend, now wife, with digestion issues, as she suffered from irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS, a condition that affects about 1 billion people worldwide. Out of this concern for his girlfriend, FoodMarble was born to make a small palm sized device, not unlike a personal breathalyser. FoodMarble analyses the gases on the breath and can help 'read' what foods are causing digestion problems. It could be a world-winning business and having already sold 30,000 devices, and raised €5.5 million, the FoodMarble team are looking for fresh funds to bring the product, along with further planned innovation, to the waiting and suffering public.Aonghus's 'hire in a heartbeat'? Grace Gifford Whittle aka his wife, the reason the whole business was started initially. Awww, that's nice! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The co-founder of FoodMarble joins me on the pod today. The device has transformed the lives of thousands of people living with food intolerances & is one of the coolest products developed in Ireland in the last 10 years. I predict FoodMarble are set to explode in popularity in the next couple of years. In this episode we discuss: - How spending 6 months in China rapidly advanced the company. - The important of speed & taking action - the first prototype of the device was in a cardboard box! - Their latest funding round & big plans for US expansion.

Grace Whittle first started having digestive symptoms that felt like daily food poisoning when she was 23 years old. Fortunately her fiancée, Aonghus Shortt, was a mechanical engineer and invented a device, the AIRE (available from FoodMarble.com), to help measure the amount of hydrogen in your breath, which is how you analyze foods that contain FODMAP. A low FODMAP diet is recommended to patients with IBS to reduce symptoms caused by fermentable sugars in foods. The term FODMAP is an acronym for the different sugars.With Aonghus' device, Grace learned that she could eat some foods which she was not sure she could eat; however a diet in FODMAP wasn’t the only answer for Grace’s symptoms. Grace was fortunate to work with doctors that took her symptoms seriously. Her experience in coping with IBS definitely helped to give her confidence. She believes that you will find a solution but it won’t look like anyone else’s solution. Grace is also fortunate to have a very supportive and empathetic partner in Aonghus and for him to invent a device that would help solve her problems.Find Jeffrey Roberts and IBS Patient Support Group at:Website: https://www.ibspatient.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ibspatientTwitter: https://twitter.com/ibspatientInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ibspatientPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ibspatient Music:Werq Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
FoodMarble's AIRE is the first portable breath test device that can measure gases which might help to identify which foods you are not absorbing and producing excess gases and which are causing your IBS-like symptoms.Breath tests are used to detect gases which are produced by bacterial fermentation and are then passed through your breath. Excess hydrogen or methane breath gases can lead to a diagnosis of malabsorption, Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrown (SIBO) or can be a key tigger of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)-like symptoms including diarrhea, constipation gas and bloating. The low FODMAP diet is an evidenced based diet for IBS to help you determine which foods might be your triggers. Breath tests might be useful as a way to determine which foods are safe and FoodMarble's AIRE portable breath device makes doing this simple. More information and details about how to order the AIRE breath device are available on the FoodMarble website, https://www.FoodMarble.com. See what's in the box when we unbox'ed it, https://bit.ly/2XzpA4S.Aonghus Shortt,PhD Co-Founder & CEO, and Claire Shortt,PhD Chief Scientist from FoodMarble were my guests while at Digestive Disease Week in San Diego. They explained what was the purpose in creating the AIRE breath test device, how does it work and how this might benefit an IBS sufferer especially when it comes to analyzing foods in a low FODMAP diet.Find Jeffrey Roberts and IBS Patient Support Group at:Website: https://www.ibspatient.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ibspatientTwitter: https://twitter.com/ibspatientInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ibspatientPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/ibspatient Music:Werq Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Understanding the impact of diet on health is challenging as it is difficult to easily and regularly quantify the interaction of foods within the digestive system. FoodMarble hopes to change that with its innovative device that detects and analyzes the composition of one’s breath to help individuals and their doctors understand and diagnose issues people have digesting food. In the above video, Dr. James Brief, Chief Medical Officer of FoodMarble, explains how their simple technique of collecting data opens people’s eyes to the types of foods (e.g. apples) that might cause stomach pain.
Lisa Ruttledge and Peter Harte tell us about their digestive health app, FoodMarble, which brings hospital technology to your mobile phone to solve a problem affecting 1 in 8 people. We talk about the highs and lows of startup life, how to maintain the vision and the importance of building a team around you. Key Takeaways [2:10] How FoodMarble came about and what problem it's solving [6:20] Forming the team [10:25] "I got a taste of what the start up life was like and just found it a bit addictive. I experienced the highest highs and lowest lows in my life but it felt very real and that I was completely engaged with what I was doing, possibly for the first time ever" [15:05] What some of the lowest lows were like, how Lisa recovered from them, turned it around and what she learned. "That passion and excitement gets a battering. When you take that first step things are really hard to do. Being prepared for that and knowing that you’re tough enough to take those hits" [24:20] The important of building a team around you and how it increases your enjoyment, shares the load and helps you cope with the challenges [26:00] Maintaining the long term vision and excitement [27:30] The importance of talking out your worries, how social media doesn’t always reflect what people or startups are really going through. [33:05] How you shouldn't be be afraid to share your idea. How the idea is just the very start. [35:45] The highs they've enjoyed "To see people all around the world in a couple of hours pre-ordering the device, I couldn’t get over it… all the work was coming to fruition" “Seeing potential users who have been suffering with those problems...and them saying this would change my life” “The highs that come from the feeling of being part of something that is bigger than just you” [47:30] Lisa and Peter's advice for would-be entrepreneurs “Nothing worth doing is easy” “Just do it and be ok with whatever the worst is that might happen” Tweetables There’s no better time than nowClick To Tweet 'Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant.' - Robert Louis StevensonClick To Tweet You need to be creative like an artist but disciplined like a soliderClick To Tweet Links to things mentioned in this episode Website https://foodmarble.com/ Social: https://www.facebook.com/foodmarble https://twitter.com/foodmarble https://www.instagram.com/foodmarble/ HAX Hardware accelerator
