Unveiling Fructan Intolerance: The Hidden Culprit Behind GI Issues. Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist, delves into the often misunderstood world of gastrointestinal issues, differentiating between gluten intolerance and fructan intolerance. She explains how emerging research suggests fructans, not gluten, may be the real trigger for many GI symptoms. Leyla discusses the structure, impact, and prevalence of fructans in various foods, and their role as prebiotics. She also highlights diagnostic methods and dietary approaches, particularly the Low FODMAP diet, to manage symptoms and properly identify intolerances. Check out part two of this episode next Friday.

Subscribe to Forever Strong Insider: https://foreverstrong.supercast.comIn this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon sits down with Dr. Heidi van den Brink; one of the only scientists in the world studying the ovarian transition from fertility to menopause. Together, they unpack what textbooks and wellness influencers often miss: the biology behind how your ovaries, uterus, metabolism, and nutrition interact across every stage of a woman's life. Dr. Heidi reveals the never-before-seen dynamics of the ovarian cycle, how follicles develop in “waves,” and what really happens during the menopause transition. They discuss how undernutrition, obesity, and metabolic health shape reproductive hormones; why early menarche and delayed ovulation matter for long-term health; and the surprising connection between your gut microbiome, bile acids, and fertility. If you've ever been told to “balance your hormones” with seed cycling, apps, or supplements, this episode separates myths from mechanisms. It's a masterclass in understanding the science of your hormones and how to truly support reproductive health through every decade of life.Chapter Markers0:00 - Can You Get Pregnant While on Your Period? 1:21 - Intro to Dr. Heidi & Ovarian Cycle Research 3:39 - The Uterine Cycle vs. The Ovarian Cycle 6:19 - Follicle Waves: The Hidden Drama in Your Ovaries 10:38 - Novel Discovery: Follicle Waves in the Luteal Phase 12:00 - Why One Follicle is Selected for Ovulation 13:17 - Does Nutrition Affect Ovarian Function? 14:48 - The Variation in Menstrual Cycles (It's Not Always 28 Days) 17:23 - The Impact of Obesity on the Ovarian Cycle 18:11 - The Problem of Luteal Phase Defects & Fertility 24:52 - Ovarian Morphology as a Bio-Marker of Health 26:54 - How Undernutrition Affects Ovarian Health 31:56 - The Metabolic Tipping Point of PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) 33:26 - The Myth of the "String of Pearls" Ovary 35:25 - The Menopause Transition & Rogue Follicles 39:04 - Can We Predict Menopause by Scanning Ovaries? 45:59 - Early Menarche (First Period) and Long-Term Disease Risk 48:33 - The Surprising Link Between Puberty Timing and Environment 52:28 - The Role of Leptin in Reproductive Health 55:50 - Debunking the Myth: Can Nutrition Cure PCOS? 59:07 - PCOS Diet Myths (Fruit, Timing, and Supplements) 1:04:40 - Fish Oil for Menstrual Cramps (Dysmenorrhea) 1:08:37 - Breakthrough: Bile Acid, The Gut Microbiome, and Ovulation 1:11:50 - Closing RemarksWho is Heidi Vanden Brink:Dr. Vanden Brink is a reproductive physiologist with over a decade of research in nutrition, metabolism, and female reproductive health.

In this week's episode of Ditch The Labcoat, host Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with gastroenterologist and podcast host Dr. Neil Parikh—known from The Gut Doctor Podcast—for a fascinating journey through one of the most complex and misunderstood systems in the human body: the gut.Together, they unpack the modern obsession with “gut health,” the hype around the microbiome, and why everyone from wellness influencers to scientists seems to think the key to longevity lies somewhere between our mouth and anus. But this conversation goes far deeper than digestion—it explores how what we eat, how we live, and even how we think shapes our gut and, in turn, our overall health.Dr. Parikh blends science with relatable insights from his life as both a physician and a dad, sharing how early childhood experiences, diet, sleep, stress, and even how we talk about “tummy troubles” influence lifelong health. The discussion spans from the everyday nuisances of bloating and irritable bowel syndrome to the more serious red flags of inflammatory bowel disease—and the grey area in between that frustrates so many patients (and doctors).You'll hear about why our guts become more sensitive with age, why sugary drinks can wreak havoc on our internal ecosystem, and how something as simple as portion control—or a good night's sleep—can dramatically improve digestive wellness. Along the way, Dr. Bonta and Dr. Parikh also challenge the commercialization of gut health, questioning whether expensive probiotic supplements or social media trends actually stand up to science.If you've ever wondered what your microbiome is really doing, whether yogurt is worth the hype, or why your stomach isn't as resilient as it used to be, this episode will give you the clarity you've been craving.Time to get real about gut health and digest the science while crapping out the myth.Listen to The Gut Doctor Podcast by Dr. Neil Parikh, MD https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-gut-doctor/id1605040922 Episode Timestamps 03:35 The Role of Gut Microbiome in Health09:16 The Importance of Gut Flora and Its Functions17:45 Dietary Choices and Their Impact on Gut Health21:08 Irritable Bowel Syndrome: A Spectrum of Symptoms30:23 Distinguishing Between IBS and Inflammatory Bowel Disease34:44 Current Understanding of Inflammatory Bowel Disease37:09 Practical Dietary Advice for Gut HealthEpisode Takeaways1.

You'll also hear a detailed walkthrough of her proven weaning protocol (with screen recording!), plus the lifestyle strategies and tools that support long-term metabolic healing. If you're looking for lasting freedom from weight struggles, blood sugar crashes, and medication dependency — this episode is for you.
Your gut microbiome doesn't stay the same through perimenopause—it changes, and that shift explains why digestion suddenly becomes unpredictable, why foods you tolerated for decades now trigger bloating, and why symptoms you never had before show up out of nowhere. Gut health and hormones are not separate—they're wired together. In this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with Dr. Christine Maren to reveal the gut–hormone connection almost no one is talking about. We dig into how hormone changes in midlife rewire the gut microbiome, disrupt balance, and trigger bloating, brain fog, and mood swings. But this isn't only about menopause. Your microbiome, your hormones, and your stress response form a feedback loop. Hormones shape the gut. The gut shapes hormones. Stress fuels both. Everyone lives in this cycle—though it hits hardest for women in their 40s and beyond. That's why midlife symptoms show up—or intensify—when hormones decline. And it's why you don't have to accept them as “normal.” If you're looking for hacks, keep scrolling. This conversation is about the long game—real resilience, balance, and solutions that last. Watch now to change the way you think about gut health, hormones, and midlife—and don't forget to subscribe for more episodes of Medical Disruptors. Looking to schedule a consultation with Dr. E?

Send us a textWe are back for part 2 to finish our journey through the Gut Microbiome with the excellent Professor Monty Pal !!Few areas of cancer treatment have generated as much interest as the Gut Microbiome in recent years. We discuss work done by Monty's team on CBM588 on immunotherapy in kidney cancer.CBM 588 is a live bacterial product that is available in health shops in Japan where it is used to promote a healthy gut.Monty's team found incredible results where it improved response rates for immunotherapy containing treatment and significantly improved time to tumour progression.Plans are now afoot to trial this in a much larger phase 3 trial which could readout some exciting results!We discuss;- Should we run patient poo through an AI algorithm to see what gut microbiome changes are needed- Can we engineer gut bacteria to make more of useful proteins in our gut- Can we get more biotech companies to engage in this space to help move it forward at more paceOf course Monty knocks it out of the park so he gets a Simply Oncology wish!!Amazing to hear Professor Monty Pal share his thoughts on this exciting area of medicine.
Send us a textDid you know that we have more bacterial DNA than human DNA in our bodies. This is because our guts contain trillions of bacteria and are now being thought of as another organ of the body.Join us this week as we discuss the Gut Microbiome (part 1 of 2) and its importance on drugs like immunotherapy response in cancer.We talk to none other than the excellent Professor Monty Pal from The City of Hope Hospital in California.Monty is an internationally respected kidney cancer expert and has been researching the impact of the gut microbiome on cancer outcomes in recent years.We discuss;The potential impact of fibre in our diet - any how much that looks like in Wheetabix.The need for balanced good versus bad bacteria in our guts.That probiotics are not recommended.The challenges of a faecal microbiome transplant.What a great episode!!

Federica Grosso from the Institute for Genetic and Biomedical Research (IRGB) of the National Research Council (CNR) in Monserrato, Italy, describes a #research paper she co-authored that was #published in Volume 17, Issue 8 of Aging-US, entitled “Causal relationships between gut microbiome and hundreds of age-related traits: evidence of a replicable effect on ApoM protein levels.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.206293 Corresponding author - Serena Sanna - serena.sanna@cnr.it Video interview - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYg42_gn_pw Abstract In the past 20 years, the involvement of gut microbiome in human health has received particular attention, but its contribution to age-related diseases remains unclear. To address this, we performed a comprehensive two-sample Mendelian Randomization investigation, testing 55130 potential causal relationships between 37 traits representing gut microbiome composition and function and age-related phenotypes, including 1472 inflammatory and cardiometabolic circulating plasma proteins from UK Biobank Pharma Proteomic Project and 18 complex traits. A total of 91 causal relationships remained significant after multiple testing correction (false discovery rate p-value
Join Patreon to listen to our bonus episode on leptin and PCOS here.What if everything you've been told about PCOS is too simplistic to actually help you heal?In this episode, I sit down with Ava Nouri, a registered dietitian on my nutrition team who works closely with women navigating PCOS. Her own health journey through fatigue, brain fog, blood sugar issues, and hormone imbalances led her to integrative and functional nutrition, where she now supports clients with the same challenges she faced.We get into the real spectrum of PCOS, why the conventional boxes don't fit, and the deeper metabolic and gut factors that drive symptoms. The second half of the conversation unpacks the pro-metabolic movement, what works, what backfires, and why so many women feel stuck trying to make it fit. It's a raw and nuanced look at one of the most common questions women in my community ask.You'll Learn:The reason PCOS is more of a metabolic disorder than just a hormone issueWhat happens in the body when insulin resistance drives high androgens and irregular cyclesThe link between gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and worsening PCOS symptomsWhy so many women with PCOS lose minerals faster and end up depletedThe damage of excess iron and how it fuels inflammation and gut issuesWhat it feels like to follow a pro-metabolic diet that backfires with PCOSThe missing role of fiber, beans, and vegetables in restoring gut health and hormone balanceWhy one-size-fits-all PCOS protocols rarely work and what to focus on insteadHow mineral testing and stool testing reveal hidden drivers of stubborn symptomsThe importance of self-experimentation and trusting your body over rigid food rulesTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[06:22] Defining PCOS and why the conventional view misses the mark[13:24] Insulin resistance as the core driver of PCOS symptoms[16:23] The role of gut health and microbiome imbalances in driving PCOS symptoms[23:25] How mineral depletion and excess iron fuel inflammation and worsen PCOS symptoms[39:33] The pro metabolic approach as a nourishing alternative to restriction and fear of food[42:49] Reframing the pro metabolic approach for PCOS[58:09] Finding balance with pro metabolic nutrition by avoiding extremes and trusting your body's feedbackResources Mentioned:Period Repair Manual by Lara Briden | BookHeal Your Metabolism by Kate Deering | BookArticles and Writings by Ray Peat | WebsiteThe Feminine Periodical Newsletter | WebsiteMaster your minerals.

Master your minerals. Harmonize your hormones. Start your mineral journey here. What if the root of your child's health struggles isn't another cream, pill, or quick fix, but something much deeper?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nina Marie Rueda, a naturopath who works with children and families through a functional, integrative lens. Her own journey started during her first pregnancy, when she realized how little she'd supported her body and baby with nutrition. This pregnancy completely changed her perspective, and she went from wanting to become a university professor to birth work, nutrition training, and eventually naturopathy.We get into why minerals matter so much for kids, especially when it comes to challenges like picky eating, eczema, and sleep struggles. Dr. Nina explains how testing works, why hair analysis often gives a clearer picture than blood work for children, and what common mineral patterns she sees in practice.

One course of antibiotics has the power to wipe out certain strains from your microbiome forever. Like everything in health, it's all about dose and right use, but when it comes to antibiotics we are reaching for it too causally without grappling with the real-world consequences. Unfortunately, Martha Carlin was unable to ignore them when it impacted her family in the most fundamental of ways. She has since become a master of gut health, and is serving the public and fight against chronic disease with offerings of the highest quality gut medicine possible. Martha Carlin is a systems thinker, entrepreneur, and founder of The BioCollective, whose journey began when her husband John was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at age 44. Refusing to accept a future of inevitable decline, she applied her expertise in corporate turnarounds to uncover new approaches to managing and potentially altering the course of chronic disease. Her research led her to recognize the central role of the gut, which she describes as the “general ledger” of health. In 2014, emerging science confirmed her insights, sparking her to leave her career and begin funding microbiome research at the University of Chicago with Dr. Jack Gilbert.

You'll learn how gut health influences inflammation, stress hormones, mental clarity, and mood—and what happens when the gut ecosystem falls out of balance. Most importantly, you'll discover practical, evidence-based strategies to heal from the inside out: from gut-friendly nutrition and probiotics to lifestyle practices that calm both body and mind. If you've ever wondered why bloating, brain fog, anxiety, or low mood might all be connected, this episode will give you the clarity—and the tools—to start shifting your health.

This is a conversation that could change the way you think about pain—and how to finally move beyond it. In this episode you'll learn: ⏰ 02:49 - Why Dr. David stopped doing back surgery ⏰ 11:06 - Thousands of research papers point to the nervous system to resolve pain ⏰ 20:06 - The self-critical voice (95% of us have it!) as a trigger for chronic pain ⏰ 28:56 - Emotions, like envy, and acts, like gossip, that generate pain ⏰ 36:10 - Compassion, altruism, peace, and joy as emotions to calm the nervous system. ⏰ 39:08 - Connection, awareness and persistence are the key ⏰ 45:49 - The ONE thing you can do to activate self-healing Check out Dr. David Hanscom's Bio: David Hanscom, MD, practiced complex orthopedic spine surgery for 32 years. He quit his practice in Seattle, WA, to present his insights into solving chronic mental and physical pain. They evolved from his 15-year battle. He escaped from the ordeal and discovered that mental pain was the biggest issue. Anxiety is the pain. He is working on a new book addressing RUTs (repetitive unpleasant thoughts). He discovered they are solvable by addressing threat physiology and the cognitive component. His book, Back in Control: A Surgeon's Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain, systematically presents well-documented treatments for chronic pain. His self-directed action plan, which reflects many successful patients' journeys, is available at www.thedocjourney.com. He launched a movement called “Dynamic Healing,” which recognizes the interactions between stress and one's coping capacity, causing sustained threat physiology. Dealing with stress more effectively and increasing the resiliency of the nervous system allows healing. He is active as a speaker, author, and consultant. His work and resources can be accessed at www.backincontrol.com.

Legend alarm on the podcast! We are happy to welcome the Haggerty's family, Ian and Dianne, together with their son Matthew, on the podcast sharing their 30+ year journey- from being considered the hippie weirdos to leading a movement in Western Australia- showing that you can absolutely farm regeneratively at scale, in this case over 60,000 acres, with deep regeneration. Leading regenerative farmer and co-founder of Natural Intelligence Farming (NIF), the Haggertys' farm is a living example of a harmonious alignment of soil, plant, animal, and human microbiomes in farm ecosystems.They regularly take on new land, but only if they feel the land wants and needs them to manage it. In other words, they don't go looking for land, the land finds them. Often this land is extremely degraded, and they bring it back to life with the help of sheep, whose gut microbiome kickstarts regeneration, followed by well-integrated annuals.We also dive into the different water cycles they are influencing and how these have even affected local rainfall. Of course, we unpack the massive mindset shift that is fundamental in the regenerative transition, vibrations, quantum agriculture, and rebuilding local supply webs. We cover it all. More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.
