How does soil health intimately and profoundly impact human health? What's the link between the soil microbiome and the human gut microbiome? How can we begin to restore our health, and the health of the living earth in concert with each other?  These are the questions posed by the outstanding book 'What your Food Ate: How to heal our land and reclaim our health' and the co-authors, Anne Biklé and David Montgomery are this week's guests as we delve deeply into the nature of soil, the functions of fungi, the populations of bacteria we depend on that inhabit our guts, and how we might affect total systemic change in the food and farming system.  So a little light listening for your day. In detail, Anne Biklé is a biologist, avid gardener. She is among the planet's leading experts on the microbial life of soil and its crucial importance to human wellbeing and survival. She is married to David Montgomery, who is a professor of Geomorphology at the University of Washington. David has studied everything from the ways that landslides and glaciers influence the height of mountain ranges, to the way that soils have shaped human civilizations both now and in the past. All of this has led him to write a number of books, including Dirt: The Erosion of Civilisations which explores how our historic - and contemporary - farming practices have critically undermined the living soil on which we depend. Following this, David and Anne co-wrote, The Hidden Half of Nature: The Microbial Roots of Life and Health and the book we're going to be exploring in depth today:  What your Food Ate: how to heal our land and reclaim the our Health.  David also plays in the band, Big Dirt, which is, and I quote directly from their Facebook page: Americana Alternative. Whatever that means. Roots folk-rock with something to say and fun to listen.I read What your Food Ate earlier this year and if you've listened to the podcast for any length of time, you'll have heard me mention it more than once. It's the most readable exploration I've come across of how our food is grown, and how it could - and should be grown - it's really easy to read, but it's full of the kind of mind-blowing data that we need if we're going to change our habits. You'll hear more in the podcast, but truly, the detail they gathered on the difference in content between food grown in the modern agri-business farm and that grown on a regenerative farm with no chemical inputs and no or minimal ploughing, one that strives to build the soil health and so build the health of everything else... it's both terrifying and inspiring. If you want something to persuade you that you need to change the places you buy your food, this is it. So, here we go.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sean O'Mara. He is the world's leading health and performance-optimizing physician, providing individuals with safe and natural strategies to improve the human body and performance. Dr. O'Mara grew up in an average family. He went to public schools and worked to save enough money for college. He studied law enforcement first and then went on to study law. However, he still has a passion for science and medicine, leading him to medical school.  At the age of 45, he is overweight. And on top of that, he is suffering from numerous medical conditions. One of his patients told him about the paleo diet, which he tried, and soon found out that not only did he lose weight, but his health also got better.  Furious by realizing that conventional medicine cares for people and propagates diseases to make money, Dr.O'Mara decided to be a researcher to know why his lifestyle change positively impacts disease. Dr. O'Mara's passion is optimizing human beings by helping individuals eliminate their visceral fat and reap a healthier and better life. In this episode, Dr.O'Mara talks about the paleo and ketogenic diet and why you should have a zero-carbohydrate diet. He also discusses what visceral fat is, the contributors that led to a higher amount of this fat, and how you could eliminate it. He also mentions how you can have a healthy microbiome and why you should focus on restoring your metabolic health and microbiome. Tune in as we chat about the visceral fat, microbiome, carbohydrates, carnivore diet, and more!  Apply to work one on one with Ben Azadi here: https://benazadi.typeform.com/to/SxcGTPuX?mc_cid=e3fb9ec4f0&mc_eid=a1d1281da5 / / E P I S O D E   S P ON S O R S  Wild Pastures: $20 OFF per Box for Life + Free Shipping for Life + $15 OFF your 1st Box! https://wildpastures.com/promos/save-20-for-life-lf?oid=6&affid=132&source_id=podcast&sub1=ad BonCharge: Blue light Blocking Glasses, Red Light Therapy, Sauna Blankets & More.

[21:29] Paleo To Ketogenic Diet: The Power Of Zero-Carbohydrate Diet  -       Dr.O'Mara started his health journey with a low-carb paleo diet. But when he changed to a ketogenic diet, his performance improved more. -       Dr.O'Mara encourages people to try the keto diet. -       He maintained a carnivore diet during his military deployment and realized he had significantly improved. -       Every time Dr.O'Mara tries to go back and have some carbohydrates,  he would have joint and back pains. -       Fermenting vegetables for an extended period of time eliminates their carbohydrates, making it possible to still eat vegetables.  [34:47] Want To Have a Healthy Microbiome? Have A Diverse Diet  -       A healthy microbiome is a diverse one. -       It is human behavior to collect as many beneficial microbes as possible. -       Dr.O'Mara said that it's nice when you are passionate about the microbiome and are trying very hard to optimize it and share its advantages with your clients. -       As you grow older, you grow worse and become more diseased and less capable. But this is only the case because chronic diseases are around, and we have lost our insights into how we should be living.   [43:21] The Biomarker Visceral Fat: What It Is And How It Affects Our Body Performance -       Right below the skin is this fat depo called subcutaneous fat. It is separated into two components: superficial subcutaneous fat and deep subcutaneous fat. -       Deep subcutaneous fat releases inflammatory molecules very similar to visceral fat. It is inflammatory in nature, and it's aligned with chronic disease and a higher amount of cardiovascular disease. -       Superficial subcutaneous fat does not secrete these inflammatory molecules. It secretes a fascinating molecule called adiponectin; the more you have it, the lower your risk for cardiovascular disease. -       There's a lot of complexity in how the body decides and reacts to the lifestyle of a particular species, but you sure want to avoid having visceral fat and deep subcutaneous fat. -       Start with your diet and eating healthy, and then build on the success of a healthy diet with other healthy lifestyle choices.  [1:16:41] What are the five most common contributors to visceral fat? -       The first biggest contributor to visceral fat is processed carbohydrates, the simple sugars that contribute significantly to visceral fat deposition, likely through the role of a microbiome. -       Stress in our lives has a very harmful effect on the hormone cortisol, with deposition and acceleration of visceral fat. -       Alcohol has a negative contribution through metabolism and its effect on the liver, which we see accumulation of visceral fat. -       People who have sleeping problems can elevate their visceral fat. -       Lastly, too much durational exercise, such as distance running or cycling, can accumulate visceral fat.  [1:41:14] Restore Your Metabolic Health And Microbiome To Live A Better Life  -       If you're thinking about adding fruit, honey, milk, or other things, consider doing an MRI baseline and tracking and seeing the results. -       People who are overweight, have suboptimal metabolism, and have compromised microbiomes need to focus on restoring their metabolic health and microbiome. -       Everyone is different, so study yourself and follow these biomarkers to help optimize your biology. This will allow you to know the inside and outside of your body and be guided to live a better life. AND MUCH MORE!

In today's episode we're going to be talking about the gut microbiome. Why it's important, how to know what's going on with your microbiome and how to optimize it. The microbiome consists of microbes that are both helpful and potentially harmful for us and our bodies. Most of these organisms are symbiotic, meaning they and us benefit at the same time, but some are pathogenic, which are those that cause trouble, produce toxins, and increase inflammation. When we are healthy, both symbiotic and pathogenic microorganisms coexist without problems in a perfect balance and without causing us to get sick. The problem comes when this perfect balance is disrupted, causing our metabolic and immune function to be negatively affected. That's why it is so important to identify and to get your microbiome back on track. Today we will focus mainly on the gut biome, although it is now well known that it is important to have a healthy balance of microbes in all different areas of our bodies, including the skin and vagina. They all relate back to the gut, so let's focus there. What Is the Gut Microbiome? I'm thinking that a lot of you probably have heard about the gut microbiome, also known as the biome or the gut microbiota. Essentially, it's referring to the microorganisms that are living in our digestive tract. This group of microbes living inside of us fluctuate on a daily, weekly and monthly basis based on our diet, physical activity, medications we take, toxins exposure and stress exposure. The important thing here is to try to have a healthy balance of this microbes as much as possible. When there's a healthy balance, the good bacteria counterbalance the potentially harmful bacteria. When our microbiome gets out of balance, it's either that there are not enough good bacteria, or too much of the potentially harmful bacteria. And that's when health issues start. Research is showing that if the gut microbiome gets out of balance, it can increase the risk of many health issues including infections (bacterial, yeast, and viral), autoimmunity conditions, metabolic disorders, even weight gain, anxiety, depression, menstrual irregularities, PCOS, endometriosis, fertility issues, osteoporosis, kidney diseases, heart disease, diabetes, and dementia. Having a healthy balance of microbes in the gut is essential for our health. What Is This Gut Microbiome Doing for Us? As you might suspect from the various health issues that I just mentioned, the microbiome communicates and supports our immune system and help protect us from infections and autoimmunity (which is when our immune system gets confused and starts trying to protect us from our own self) so, by having a good balance of microbes in your gut, you're helping your immune system stay on track and protect you. These microbes also communicate with our nervous system via the Vagus nerve and other mechanisms. These guys are sending messages to our brain and our nervous system, they're communicating about what's happening down in our gut, they can cause us to crave some kinds of foods in order to feed them. They can affect our mood, our memory and our focus. They also make certain nutrients like B vitamins (including activating B12), vitamin K and short chain fatty acids (which are protective to the colon). Furthermore, they participate in making neurotransmitters such as GABA and can influence the production of serotonin and dopamine in our nervous system. What we're learning from research is that they help us recover from stress and toxin exposure! As you know I specialize in how humans are affected by stress and what we can do to recover from stress, and so I would say that optimizing the microbiome has a huge impact on our stress recovery. How Do We Maintain a Healthy Microbiome? So, we now know they're important, but how do we take care of them? It's like having a pet, you must know how to feed them and how to take care of them so that they can be healthy. What we eat is what feeds our gut bacteria. Of course, they're living in our gut so what we swallow is going to influence them and what's going to feed them potentially. Our gut bacteria can ferment foods what we as humans are unable to digest, like fiber or complex starches for example. They can ferment fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, seeds. Foods and fibers that feed our microbiome are called “prebiotics.” Fructooligosaccharides in garlic, onions, leeks, asparagus, artichokes, kale, dandelion, as well as bananas, contain the highest amount of prebiotics, or super food, for our gut bacteria. It's important to know that it's possible to over feed your gut bacteria! In fact, I would say that it is much more likely to overfeed your bacteria than to underfeed them. I see a higher percentage of patients with overgrowing bacteria rather than with too few bacteria. Going back to the pet analogy, we have to know how to feed our gut bacteria correctly. Symptoms of overfeeding your gut bacteria include bloating, gas, cramping, bowel changes, weight gain, and burping. Consuming prebiotics in excess or eating too much fermented foods (yoghurt, sauerkraut, kimchi, miso, kombucha, etc.) can cause overgrowth. We want that optimal amount and balance of good and bad gut bacteria, so just be aware and cautious and listen to your body. If you are consuming a lot of prebiotics, high fiber foods, fermented foods and you start to feel bloated or have bowel changes or gas, or even if you have infections (sinus, bladder, vaginal) or joint pain, inflammation, headaches, skin rashes, these are all symptoms that you may be overfeeding your gut bacteria. How Can You Know if You're Overfeeding Your Gut Microbiome? What you can do is a stool analysis. For many years we have had stool cultures. The culture is when you send in a stool sample into the lab and they allow it to grow over several days. The problem with cultures is that some bacteria are anaerobic, so they don't grow in a lab environment. Then, about a decade ago, they came out with a DNA analysis of the gut bacteria. This is DNA sequencing so no matter whether the bacteria are alive or not, they can identify them based on their DNA. This is a much more accurate way of knowing which bacteria are thriving, or overgrowing, in your microbiome. There are now consumer versions of these stool tests that you can order online and send in your stool sample. They may make suggestions in terms of how to change your diet to feed the bacteria that are too low, and not overfeed those that are too high. It's important to consider that, while making certain diet changes can help, I have not found that decreasing or increasing specific foods is an effective solution to adjust your microbiome (and I have tried it with hundreds of patients). That is because many of the same foods that feed the good bacteria, also feed the bad bacteria. It doesn't work to manipulate your diet, in terms of eating specific fruits or seeds, in order to make minor adjustments in your biome. A much better approach is to choose a variety of foods in your diet. If you're eating the exact same foods every day, it is more likely to cause an overgrown of bacteria (or yeast). In that case, increasing the variety in your diet and eating other kinds of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds each day, or alternating through the week, will help to improve the diversity of bacteria because you'll be feeding a greater number of types overall. When it comes to our gut microbiome, we want diversity. There are over 1,000 bacterial species that have been identified with about 160 species being found living in the gut of any individual so we don't want to just feed certain ones. Now, if your gut microbiome is really needing more help and you have symptoms of overgrowing bacteria, or a health issue related to the gut biome, then some additional steps need to be taken. There is a clinical stool panel called the GI MAP that I find has helped so many of my patients by showing exactly which bacteria, yeast, protozoa and/or parasites are present, so we can tailor a specific protocol to address them. I can order this test through my office for you and then we can see who's living there in your gut. It will also tell us if there is inflammation (calprotectin) or antigliadin antibodies, and how well are you digesting your food. We can see quite a lot about your digestive system in this type of clinical stool panel, and from there I can get way more specific and design a strategy for you so we can get your biome back on track. What Can We Do to Rebalance Our Gut Bacteria? When we're constantly under stress, we don't digest our food well, and this will cause an imbalance in the gut bacteria, let alone many potential health issues. If our food is not digested well, we're not going to be able to absorb the nutrients, so it's not going to feed us, and instead it's going to overfeed the bacteria and other microbes. So, how do we support our digestion? Well, we can start by taking the time to slow down and consciously eat. Take your time and sit down, breathe, chew well, etc. This way you are sending signals to your Vagus nerve communicating that it's time to make enzymes and digest. You can also take pancreatic enzymes if needed to help you digest food while your system is healing. This is something that will show on the stool panel. Also, if you're not making enough bile, we can support bile production for fat digestion. If you're not making enough stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) we can add that to help with protein digestion. We can support the digestion of your food in many different ways, including herbs that stimulate digestion or even just eating plants that are bitter (like arugula), which help with digestion. If there's overgrowing pathogenic bacteria, referred to as “dysbiosis,” I would guide you through a protocol of using antimicrobial herbs that are effective at addressing the bacteria that are overgrowing, without wiping out all your good bacteria. That's a very specific protocol that I developed and tested over the years and one that works for the majority of patients. In addition to antimicrobial herbs, I also recommend using probiotics that contain the bacillus species (such as Megaspore), which I consider to be the traffic directors of the microbiome. These bacteria are able to rebalance your gut biome by supporting the good guys and telling the overgrowing or pathogenic bacteria that they need to go. Once we get the balance back then we can shift our strategy to maintaining the balance by eating a healthy, balanced, and diverse diet, along with potentially using a maintenance probiotic, which is going to contain lactobacillus and bifidobacterium in the range of 25 to 50 billion per day. It's important to consider that when trying to rebalance your gut microbiome, it's better to do it slowly. An aggressive change can cause the pathogenic bacteria to release toxins as a defense mechanism, and this can make you feel worse. Starting with very low doses of bacillus and antimicrobial herbs and listening to your body in the process is key to a good outcome. It's also important to think about the environment. If there's leaky gut, unhealthy cells, and inflammation, then the good bacteria will not thrive, so we need to be paying attention to making it a happy, healthy environment for the healthy bacteria and microbes to live in. What Are the Causes of a Disruption in the Microbiome? One of the main causes of dysbiosis, and one that I have been helping a lot of patients with through the years, is leaky gut. With leaky gut, the foods we eat “leak” through the intestinal lining because the intestinal cells have become damaged and there is more space between the cells. When undigested food leaks through the intestinal lining, the immune system responds in an effort to protect us, which leads to inflammation that can spread throughout the body. At the same time, the intestinal cells are not able to absorb nutrients from the foods we eat and, of course, our microbiome is disrupted. A poor diet, overconsumption of alcohol, smoking, stress and exposure to environmental toxins are all factors in developing leaky gut. The best protection is a healthful diet high in natural fiber and low in added sugars and processed foods. Another cause of dysbiosis is taking some types of medications like antibiotics, antacid medications, such as proton pump inhibitors, and many other medications. These meds will kill both good and bad bacteria, so we need to counteract this effect by taking the right probiotics. This is also why it is important to avoid the use of medications whenever possible. Stress is a major factor in the disruption of our microbiome. Stress includes psycho-emotional stress, trauma, as well as physical stressed and injuries. If you know you've been under stress, you're going to want to be proactive to help your microbiome to recover. We also know that gluten (in wheat, rye, barley, and spelt) disrupts the bacteria and decreases the levels of various kinds of healthy bacteria. If you're consuming gluten, and even if you don't have gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, there's a chance you're disrupting your gut bacteria. Also sugar, refined carbs, processed foods, non-organic foods, a low-fiber diet, pesticides, artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors and colors added to foods, all cause gut biome disruption. Exposure to toxins, such as toxins in our environment, our food, water, air, and exposure to mold toxins (such as if you're living in a water damaged building), all affect our digestion and they affect our microbiome. When it comes down to it, our gut biome is potentially being disrupted every day. It's by raising our awareness, and being mindful about what we eat, and how we recover from stress, that we are able to keep our gut microbiome optimized. What Are Some Products Out There That Can Help Rebalance the Microbiome? There is another new stool panel that not only tells us about the balance of bacteria in your biome, but then also offer custom probiotic formulations based on your results. So if you're low in certain strains of bacteria, then that's what they're going to put in your individualized probiotics. That company is called Flore and I can help you with that through my office if you're interested in trying that out as a way to re-optimize your gut biome. There's recent research that's identifying individual strains of bacteria and how they specifically help us with our health. I think we're going to see more and more products, such as supplements or beverage products, that contain these specific bacteria based on research that shows how they're potentially beneficial for our health. For example, there's one type of bacteria called Bifidobacterium 1741, which is considered a “psychobiotic” because it's been shown in research to help with stress recovery, specifically to bring cortisol down. So, in terms of the Stress Types I identified, this would be especially helpful for a Stress Magnet, or Night Owl, or Sluggish and Stressed type, who have elevated cortisol levels. If you want to find out your Stress Type, you can do my free online Stress Type Quiz here. Bifidobacterium 1741 has also been shown to help with mental health in terms of cognition, focus and memory. This type of bacteria can be found in products like Zenbiome - Zenbiome Cope and Zenbiome Sleep. There's also Bifidobacterium 35642 which has been shown to modulate inflammation. This would be especially helpful for someone who is experiencing a lot of inflammation and pain. Zenbiome Dual contains both Bifidobacterium 1741 and 35642. https://doctordoni.com/product/zenbiome-dual-60-capsules/ There's also quite a lot of research on the bacteria related to the vaginal biome and how it is completely related to the health of the gut biome. This is so important because if you're having vaginal symptoms or recurrent vaginal infections, like yeast, BV, or HPV, we know it is important that we heal your gut biome in order to help heal the vaginal biome and prevent those infections from happening. If you want to learn more about the vaginal biome related to the gut biome you can watch Episode #168 of How Humans Heal here. If you're interested in a probiotic that is specifically formulated to support a healthy vulvovaginal microbiota you can find one here. And another here. https://doctordoni.com/product/ortho-biotic-womens-30-capsules/ More examples of specific oral probiotics to benefit areas of the body and for certain purposes are: * Bifidobacterium HU36 - shown to help with carotenoid and the skin. https://doctordoni.com/product/sereneskin-30-capsules/ * Lactobacillus rhamnosus DR7, which has been shown especially to be helpful for mood and stress recovery or bacteria that has been shown to help with our neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine. *Bifidobacterium BPL1 which has been shown to help with weight gain around the waist. One more approach that is being used, especially in cases where there is the need to control an infection called Clostridium difficile, or C. diff (which is a pathogenic bacteria that a lot of times is hard to treat and get rid of) is something called a “fecal transplant.” A fecal transplant is a procedure to collect feces from a healthy donor and introduce them into a patient's gastrointestinal tract. Research shows that a fecal transplant can restore healthy bacteria in the lower intestine, which can help control C. diff and keep it from coming back. In some cases this can be more effective than antibiotics for keeping C. diff in check. Still, even after using a specific probiotic, or having a fecal transplant, we will need to come back to rebalancing and maintaining the overall population and diversity of bacteria based on what we eat and supporting healthy digestion. How to Integrate Microbiome Optimization into Your Overall Health Plan? No matter what, I think it's important to keep in mind that we need to take into account all of the root causes of our health issues. Yes, we can take a bacteria-containing supplement, and we can learn to consume an optimal amount of prebiotics to feed our biome, and all that can help, but we also need to work on our recovery from stress and anything else that was thrown out of balance by stress. We need to ensure optimal cortisol levels because cortisol determines the signals to our digestion. We need to optimize hormone levels such as insulin and blood sugar levels, thyroid, as well as leptin and the sex hormones. We need to address nutrient deficiencies and toxins. We have to address all the underlying causes to really shift the imbalances permanently and achieve our best health and resilience to stress going forward. If you really want to heal there needs to be a whole protocol put into action for your specific body. This is why I encourage you to refer to my overall stress recovery protocol because I'm addressing all the potential imbalances, not just the microbiome. Yes, the microbiome is hugely important, but we have to also think about all the other potential imbalances along with it because then everything can help maintain resilience together. So, as you can see, there are many solutions - many ways to help you rebalance your microbiome. I've worked with some of the most challenging and complex cases - people who were put on the most strict diets and worked with many other practitioners - and I've helped guide them back out of it to heal their digestion, optimize their biome and help them feel better. That's where I get my confidence to say it's possible to get your microbiome back on track again. If you want to work on your gut health and microbiome you may want to sign up for my Heal Leaky Gut Program where I teach you how to heal leaky gut with my proven protocol. Keep in mind that 50% of people with leaky gut, have zero symptoms, so the only way to know for sure is to do the food sensitivity panel I recommend.

Colorectal surgeon Mr James Kinross reveals the remarkable impact that our microbiomes have on every aspect of health from the moment we are born. He argues that the biome may hold the key to understanding diseases as varied as cancer, bowel and auto-immune conditions. And that the rise of these conditions may be at least partially due to the disruption that's been caused to our biomes, by the food we eat, antibiotics and the environment around us. In his new book: Dark Matter: The New Science of the Microbiome, James even suggests that the way a man and woman's biome interacts may have an  impact their ability to reproduce. James Kinross is a senior lecturer in colorectal surgery and a  surgeon at Imperial College London. He leads a research team exploring how the microbiome may drive cancer and other diseases of the gut.

Does scraping during dental cleanings make you anxious? Today on Holistic Dentistry, we discuss a better way to clean your teeth that protects your enamel and reduces the number of bacteria in your mouth. Our guest today is a dental hygienist, Bina Patel. She shares her experience using ozone therapies with her patients and how this revolutionary technology completely changes the patient experience.  The mouth is the entry point into the body, so Bina uses ozone water before every procedure to break down the bacterial wall, preventing that bacteria from entering the patient's GI tract. She explains the importance of detoxifying the mouth and why ozone water is essential for holistic dentistry.  Bina shares how even the most hesitant patients embrace ozone airflow therapy. She walks you through the process and explains how gentle and effective this method is, compared to traditional scraping and polishing.

In this episode, we have a special guest, Dr. Jocelyn Strand, the Director of Clinical Education and Research at Biocidin Botanicals. Dr. Strand shares some fascinating insights about the microbiome, highlighting the importance of maintaining balance for optimal health. Did you know that a healthy microbiome in the gut helps us to degrade macromolecules, absorb nutrients and minerals, and synthesize enzymes and vitamins? Short-chain fatty acids produced by beneficial microorganisms also help to heal the gut lining and have a systemic anti-inflammatory effect. On the flip side, chronic low-grade dysbiosis can cause a range of symptoms, from fatigue to anxiety and depression. Dr. Strand also shares some practical tips for evaluating your gut health, including looking for clues and triggers, such as low levels of CoQ10 and symptoms like tingling or itching. Join us as we explore the fascinating world of the microbiome and learn how to maintain balance for optimal health. @MoldFinders Not sure the best way to get started?

It's easy to think that our systems are separate. We don't typically think - “oh, I have a hormonal imbalance, I wonder if my food sensitivities or bloating are related to that."But the truth is, your gut is intricately related to your hormonal health in a variety of ways.And most especially through your miraculous microbiome, including a specialized part called “the estrobolome.”Whether you have PCOS, endometriosis, estrogen dominance or even if you have perimenopausal or other hormonal imbalance symptoms, the composition of your microbiome is likely a part of the picture.Our endocrine system is complex. And finding that dynamic dance of optimal hormonal health we're seeking is often a multi-facted path. Whether it's stress, inflammation, detoxification, elimination, microbiome health, or even sleep, every single one of these factors impacts your gut. And also your hormones. This episode gets nerdy in good ways, especially if you're curious about how all of this works.Listen in to learn:how your hormones affect your gut, and how your gut affects your hormoneswhat the metabolome and estrobolome are and why they matterspecifics on the microbiome and PCOS, endometriosis, menopause and thyroid imbalancehow oxytocin ("the love hormone") affects your gutspecific ways you can restore a healthy microbiome and gut (herbs, diet, lifestyle, etc)Resources:Today's shownotes: Find all the nerdy references hereLast day (2/28) for $25 off to Pelvic Health Summit!

It may also indicate an infection, imbalance, or intolerance. I also chat about what your kids poo colour means, including undigested food, dark stool, green or yellow stool or if your child's poo contains blood or mucus. No matter what you detect in your child's poo, our upcoming free online masterclass – 3 Surprisingly Simple Ways to Transform Your Kids Gut Health to improve behaviour, immunity, allergies, and fussy eating will be able to guide you.  The Masterclass will run via two live sessions:Tuesday 26th Oct – Morning SessionWednesday 27th October – Evening Session.Click here to register.Episode Links:Bristol Stool Chart Infographic

Did you know that your gut microbiome starts in your mouth? We're told that the key to good oral health is to follow the recommendations set out by the ADA, but is this the best way? Trina Felber, the creator of Primal Life Organics, joins me today to discuss natural oral health. About Trina Felber Born in 1968, the second of five daughters in Toledo, Ohio, Trina grew up amongst a house full of skin and beauty products. As a youth, Trina was always health conscious and science-driven. In 1992 Trina obtained her RN diploma from St. Vincent Medical Center in Toledo, Ohio. Over the next decade, she worked as a Registered Nurse in specialty areas including Burn ICU, Neuro ICU, Medical ICU, and Surgical ICU. Trina spent a year as a traveling nurse before committing to furthering her education. Trina studied and obtained her BSN in 2004 from The University of Akron. She continued her studies and received her Masters of Science in Nursing with a specialty in Nurse Anesthesia in 2007. In 2010, Trina was introduced to Crossfit and the Paleo lifestyle by her husband, box owner Josh Felber. True to her “Type A” personality, Trina researched and perfected her Paleo lifestyle. She and her husband easily adapted to the Paleo diet and raise their three young children Paleo.  Living proof that Paleo equals health, Trina takes the Paleo world beyond the diet and applies it to the food for the skin. After all, to truly reap the benefits, all aspects - including skincare, must be as nutrient-dense as possible. Trina is committed to providing nutrient-dense, 100% Paleo Skin-Food that is made from fresh, organic ingredients.   Each Creation is extensively researched for specific skin types and conditions. No product is made until it is ordered ensuring the freshest, most nutrient-dense Paleo Skin-Food is delivered. Trina continues to work as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, as well as Paleo Advocate, Educator, and Skincare Expert. On this episode of The Girlfriend Doctor, Trina shares how the dental products recommended by the ADA might actually be creating more disease in your mouth than they're solving. When these products contain triclosan, SLS, fluoride, and other harsh chemicals, they disrupt your mouth's natural pH balance. Trina explains how your mouth, specifically your saliva, is the first line of defense against infections, diseases, and harmful bacteria that exists in our modern world. This is especially prevalent in our American soil is lacking so many of the vitamins and minerals due to factory farming and harmful chemical treatments. By changing your dental products to natural, chemical-free ones, Trina says that you can help create a more alkaline environment for your mouth. An alkaline mouth has a direct impact on your gut health and microbiome.  Trina gives us the information we need to make informed choices about the dental products we choose. She tells us what the problem with most ADA recommended dental products is. And finally, Trina gives us a definite answer to why we should be scraping our tongue every day. How confident are you in your dental hygiene? Do you scrape your tongue every day? As always, you can ask me anything and let me hear your thoughts in the comments on the episode page. If you have questions, email team@drannacabeca.com. In This Episode: Where a good, healthy microbiome starts How dental products could be creating more disease in your mouth How American soil is impacting our overall health, starting with our dental hygiene What happens when your mouth is an alkaline environment What the problem with most dental products is Why it's so important to scrape your tongue Quotes: “One of the best ways that you can protect yourself is by keeping your mouth healthy. But if you're using harsh ingredients or triclosan, SLS, or even fluoride, inside your mouth and body, you're destroying your body's first line of defense against all bacteria and all bad viruses.” (5:59) “I think that the ADA really has us all brainwashed into believing that we are supposed to brush our teeth to clean them when in reality, your saliva is meant to do that as you eat.” (10:03) “I know a lot of people that have not gotten the flu or a cold since they switched their oral care products because it's such a drastic change when you use what's good for you and something that allows your saliva, your body's natural way to defend you, to actually work the way it's supposed to. It's a powerful thing.” (21:43) Resources Mentioned Buy Mighty Maca Plus Get the 21 Day Oral Detox Kit Buy the LED Teeth Whitener Buy Natural Hand Protectors Buy The Gemstone Face Collection Find Trina Felber and Primal Life Organics Online Find Primal Life organics on Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | Pinterest | Instagram   Check out the full episode page Find Dr. Anna Online Follow Dr. Anna on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
