Podcasts about Kefir

Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, is a professor of nutritional medicine at Columbia University School of Medicine and an expert on the bidirectional relationship between nutrition and sleep. We discuss how even moderate sleep loss increases appetite, changes hunger-related hormones, and causes weight gain, even when calories are not increased. We also explain how meal timing and specific foods, like fiber, ginger, saturated fat, and various oils, affect sleep onset, sleep quality, and metabolism. Throughout the conversation, we discuss specific foods and diets that directly support weight loss, better sleep, and long-term cardiometabolic health. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.

I've been bugging Elizabeth Bruckner for months to come back on the podcast, because I've been listening to her other podcast guest episodes and feeling like we've been missing out, and I finally wore her down. I'm kidding - she's been wanting to go deep about Kefir with someone, and I've been interested in learning about it, and finding a fermented food I can actually ingest. And boy oh boy, did we get an education!Elizabeth was a guest in 2025 (episode 148) to talk about her book, The Homesteader Mindset, that had just published. We talked about homesteading and how you don't have to have a certain look or property to be a homesteader. Kefir is a part of Elizabeth's journey to health. She very vulnerably shares that she was bed bound for weeks, housebound for months, and unable to work for years, due to an illness.  She began to heal as she started researching herself; she is now an Oriental Medicine Practitioner and Acupuncturist. She learned about organic foods and fermented foods, among many other things. Elizabeth's message is to start small, and add on as you feel comfortable - with kefir, and homesteading, or any new habits. When talking to friends, someone asked for an easy step to take to make an impact, and her answer was quickly KEFIR. It's a really easy thing to add to your routine! I've been doing it for a few weeks now - not sure if I'm seeing benefits yet, but there definitely aren't any bad things. I have terrible eyesight, but my nose and ears make up for that - I had to trick my nose with a taste of jam or cranberry sauce with kefir to help it go down... I do like that it's not sweet - I'm not a yogurt person, because it's always very sweet (and I don't like the "tang" of plain yogurt).Access to Elizabeth's Kefir course: http://www.createwellnessproject.com/kefir - remember, use code Grounded for 25% off!Her website: https://createwellnessproject.com/Send me a message!Support the showLike this episode?

I love it when a conversation feels like it's been years in the making. This one really has!Today's guest is someone who has quietly, faithfully shaped the way I think about food for a long time—my friend Wardee Harmon from Traditional Cooking School.And if you've ever felt like the world of “healthy eating” is a swirl of contradictions…one expert says this, another says that…you are not alone. (Honestly, it can make your head spin before you even get dinner on the table.)Wardee has this rare gift of bringing clarity to all that noise.Her Eat God's Way plan isn't just another list of rules or trendy swaps. It's a grounded, thoughtful look at the foods humans were designed to eat, paired with traditional methods that real families have used for generations. Things like soaking, fermenting, sourdough…not because they're fancy, but because they work.And I've seen firsthand how she teaches. She doesn't overwhelm. She connects the dots.She makes it feel doable, even if you're starting from “we eat cereal for dinner sometimes and I'm just trying to survive.”I also love that her perspective is rooted in faith, but she holds it with such grace. If that resonates with you, you're going to feel right at home. And if it's new or not quite your thing, there's still so much practical wisdom here to take and run with.Wardee is also one of our incredible leaders for #LifeSkillsNow! This year she is teaching a delicious gluten-free Blueberry Oat Cake.So whether you're curious about traditional foods, wondering if sourdough is worth the hype, or just hoping to feel a little more grounded in what you feed your family…You're in the right place.Resources We Mention for Eating God's WayGet the Eat God's Way booksCheck out Wardee's book Fermenting: Pickles, Kimchi, Kefir, Kombucha, Sourdough, Yogurt, Cheese and More!

Most people think yogurt, kefir, and skyr are basically the same…But one simple step changes everything. In this episode, I'm going to show you how straining transforms fermented dairy — increasing protein, lowering lactose, and changing how full and satisfied you feel. We'll talk about kefir, Greek yogurt, skyr, and Yogurt Plus… and how each one works differently in your body. Because when you understand this, you can start choosing foods that truly support you.

Heute sprechen wir über etwas, das du nicht sehen kannst – das aber jeden einzelnen Tag über dein Wohlbefinden, deine Energie und deine Gesundheit mitentscheidet. Es geht um dein Mikrobiom. Und darum, warum es für dein Immunsystem und für ein langes, gesundes Leben – Longevity – so unglaublich wichtig ist. Der Arzt und Forscher Tim Spector beschreibt das Mikrobiom nicht als etwas, das „in uns lebt", sondern als einen Teil von uns. Ein gutes Mikrobiom ist entscheidend für weniger Infekte, weniger Allergien, weniger Autoimmunreaktionen, schlicht weniger Entzündungswerte im Körper. Es gibt mehr Energie, Vitalität und fördert psychische und körperliche Gesundheit. In dieser Folge möchte ich teilen, wie ein starkes, vielfältiges Mikrobiom aufgebaut werden kann und weshalb es ein Ort der Regulation für uns ist, von dem wir stark profitieren. Sie soll das Bewusstsein schaffen: Dein Körper arbeitet für dich, nicht gegen dich. Dein Mikrobiom ist kein Problem, das gelöst werden muss, sondern ein Partner, der Unterstützung braucht. Je besser wir es also versorgen, desto mehr trägt es uns – durch Krankheit, durch Stress, durch das Älterwerden. Viel Spaß mit der Folge! ••• Sanfte Wochenroutine für ein langlebiges Mikrobiom(ohne Perfektion, ohne Druck) Jeden Tag (die Basis) • 1–2 Mahlzeiten mit Pflanzenvielfalt Nicht „gesund essen", sondern verschieden essen. • Ballaststoffe (Gemüse, Hülsenfrüchte, Vollkorn) • Ein Moment Entschleunigung vor oder nach dem Essen → aktiviert den Vagusnerv und verbessert die Verdauung • Bewegung: Spazierengehen reicht vollkommen ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Die Woche im Überblick Montag – Vielfalt starten • Baue 3 verschiedene Pflanzen in eine Mahlzeit ein z. B. Linsen + Karotten + Kräuter • Trinke Kaffee oder Tee bewusst (Polyphenole!) ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Dienstag – Darm füttern • Fokus auf Ballaststoffe • Eine große Gemüseportion oder Hülsenfrüchte • Abends: 5 Minuten ruhiges Atmen (siehe Meditation in der Podcastfolge) ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Mittwoch – Fermentierter Tag • 1 kleine Portion fermentierte Lebensmittel: Joghurt, Kefir, Sauerkraut, Kimchi • Weniger Zucker & stark Verarbeitetes ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Donnerstag – Entzündungsarm • Gutes Fett: Olivenöl, Nüsse oder Samen • Iss langsam. Dein Darm liebt Zeit. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Freitag – Pflanzenvielfalt feiern • Zähle spielerisch: Wie viele verschiedene Pflanzen hatte ich diese Woche schon? • Kräuter & Gewürze zählen mit! ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Samstag – Entspannung & Natur • Stressreduktion = Mikrobiompflege • Spaziergang, Natur, Sonne • Kein „Optimieren". Nur Sein. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Sonntag – Regeneration • Warmes, leicht verdauliches Essen • Suppen, Eintöpfe, gekochtes Gemüse • Früher schlafen, um dem Darm Erholung zu schenken ••• Nervensystem regulieren zur Mikrobiompflege: Teilnehmen am TRE-Gruppenkurs im Onlinemodus oder vor Ort in Bonn. Lerne das neurogene Zittern, um Stress nachhaltig zu reduzieren. Zu den Kursen: https://www.karlajohannaschaeffer.com/gruppenkurs-masterclass Auf meiner Webseite kannst du dir für den Einstieg ebenfalls 12 kostenlose Tipps herunterladen, die jeder kennen sollte, der mit starkem Stress, Angst oder Panik kämpft.

Kathleen destroys the myth that eggs are harmful, Peter talks about the benefits of Kefir, and a story about Remembrance Day in a small town in Holland. Kathleen's Deep Dive Eggs got a bad rap for years for supposedly increasing bad cholesterol.  Actually, the opposite may be true. Go figure! A published study showed eating 2 eats daily lowered LDL cholesterol. Eggs provide cholesterol without overloading the liver, allowing it to clear LDL efficiently.  So go eat some farm-fresh eggs from pasture-raised hens! Peter talks about the benefits of kefir and his experience after eating it every day for five weeks. He mentions how the schoolchildren of Oosterbeek in Holland have been placing flowers on Allied paratroopers' graves every Remembrance Day for 80 years to honour their sacrifice in WWII.

Your gut health depends on this!0:00 Introduction: Is yogurt bad for you? 0:10 Fermented foods 1:00 Yogurt side effects and benefits 3:10 Commercial yogurt vs. homemade yogurt5:11 Unhealthy facts about yogurt6:45 Processed yogurt ingredients 8:59 Probiotics, kefir, and sauerkraut The benefits of yogurt and other fermented foods do not lie in their ability to reseed the gut. The real benefit is the change in environment. Fermented and cultured foods change the pH and oxygen levels in the gut. They also provide food and metabolites for the gut microbes, which can also help activate dormant microbes. Many microbes have been suppressed by antibiotics, junk food, and other factors. Many of them are keystone microbes, which are vital for your gut health. Unless your yogurt says it contains live and active cultures, it's been double-pasteurized. Commercial yogurt typically ferments for 1 to 2 hours, whereas traditional homemade yogurt ferments anywhere from 8 to 36 hours. By the time you eat commercial yogurt, there are significantly fewer CFUs of bacteria than stated on the label.Sugar in yogurt can kill the friendly bacteria and feed pathogens in your gut. Added ingredients, such as pectin, gels, and guar gum, inhibit bacterial movement. Yogurt fermented for only 1 to 2 hours will not have the right texture or thickness, so ingredients such as modified food starch, carrageenan, and polysorbate 80 are added. These ingredients can destroy the mucosal layer of the gut, leading to leaky gut and inflammation. Many commercial yogurts contain artificial sweeteners, which are known to alter the gut microbiome.Many processed yogurts contain bioengineered food ingredients that may contain traces of glyphosate, a patented antibiotic. This means the very product you're consuming to support your gut health could be destroying your gut microbes. Probiotics contain significantly more microbes than yogurt. These freeze-dried microbes are often able to reach the large intestine and reseed the gut, especially when taken repetitively. Kefir, which contains both bacteria and yeast, is also a better option than yogurt.Sauerkraut is an excellent food for gut health. It contains polyphenols, postbiotics, SCFAs, sulforaphane, organic acids, glutamine, and the compound s-methylmethionine.

Our guest is Julie Smolyansky, CEO of Lifeway Foods, the company that pioneered the kefir market in America and today produces 95% of the kefir sold in the U.S. Julie's story begins in 1976, when her parents immigrated from Kiev ( the former Soviet Union)  to Chicago. Her mother opened a deli, while her father, a mechanical engineer, missed the kefir he had back in the Soviet Union so he started making his own, and from that, Lifeway Foods was born. In 2002, tragedy struck. Julie's father, Michael Smolyansky, died suddenly of a heart attack. At just 27, Julie stepped into the CEO role, becoming the youngest female CEO of a publicly traded company. Under her leadership, Lifeway expanded its product lines and grew internationally. Today, with revenues topping $200 million, Julie has proven herself a powerhouse CEO—while also raising two daughters, running marathons, reading voraciously, and giving back through philanthropy and community leadership. This is the kind of conversation we love: a woman courageously living a full, multidimensional life. In this episode, we cover her parents' immigrant journey, the rise of kefir in America, the science of gut health, and Lifeway's latest innovations, including kefir with collagen and creatine.   This conversation is about courage, resilience, and building a full life. We get into: ✨ Her family's immigrant journey from Kiev to Chicago ✨ How kefir conquered America ✨ The science of gut health ✨ Lifeway's bold new products (yes—kefir with collagen + creatine!)   Check out our website: https://meantforyoupod.com Reach out to us: meantforyoupod@gmail.com Follow us on IG

In this episode of HHH, Anthonee Yim returns to share his powerful journey of qualifying for the CrossFit Games for the first time. Over the past year, Anthony transitioned from juggling a full-time job in California to moving across the country and joining Proven Fitness in Tennessee. He talks about the sacrifices of leaving his family and sunny SoCal, the demands of elite training, and the mental resilience it takes to perform at the highest level. From nutrition and attention to detail to redefining success, Anthony's story is packed with lessons for athletes and everyday people chasing big goals.

We're diving into one of the most overlooked—but surprisingly important—parts of family nutrition: drinks. In this final episode of our “What Can I Eat?” series, we're talking about what's really hydrating (spoiler: it's not just water), why juice boxes aren't the solution, and how ancestral wisdom can help us rethink what we offer our kids and ourselves to drink each day.   We chat about everything from raw milk and herbal teas to fermented beverages like water kefir and kombucha. You'll hear practical tips, stories from our own families, and the deeper “why” behind nutrient-dense drinks. If you've ever wondered what's actually worth sipping—or how to ditch the dye-filled sports drinks—this episode is packed with insight.  

Sleep detoxifies our brains! Refined sugars, junk food, and late-night snacking can interfere with sleep. If you want better sleep, eat earlier in the day. For the best sleep, have your last meal around 5:00 p.m. If you're waking at night to urinate, intermittent fasting and a low-carb diet can help. Inflammatory foods, such as grains, can also interfere with your sleep. High carbohydrate diets increase your need for vitamin B1, which reduces anxiety and tension.Kefir contains probiotics that can build up serotonin, which turns into melatonin, the sleep hormone. L. reuteri yogurt also contains helpful probiotics to improve sleep. Consume ½ cup daily; it doesn't have to be before bed.Try the following tips for better sleep to help you wake up early feeling refreshed and energized:•Sleep in a 65 to 68 degree room•If you have cold feet at night, try sleeping with warm socks•Plants in the room can help oxygenate the space and improve sleep•The darker the environment, the better Light inhibits melatonin. Blue light from your computer or phone stimulates energy, while infrared lighting helps you wind down. Around 50% of the sun's rays are infrared and can penetrate several inches into the body. Infrared light helps you make vitamin D, which is vital for sleep and increasing melatonin. Since culture has pushed us away from sun exposure, sleep quality has declined. Alcohol will make you feel tired, but it interferes with deep sleep. Caffeine, tea, coffee, and chocolate act as stimulants and prevent sleep. Increase exercise to improve sleep. Stretching and massage can also help you relax. Here are a few more deep sleep tips that can significantly improve sleep quality:•Sleep on your right side•Focus on nose breathing •Reduce stress for better sleep•Ensure adequate sodium intake to maintain healthy cortisol levels •Increase potassium intake •Consume magnesium glycinate powder 1 hour before bed •Sound machine •Binaural beats •Use essential oils (Spikenard, vetiver)Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

What if you built a billion-dollar fitness empire — and then had the courage to tear it down for something better?In this powerful episode of The Big Silence, Karena Dawn sits down with Carl Daikeler, founder of Beachbody (now known as BODi), the man behind household names like P90X, Insanity, Shakeology, and Morning Meltdown 100. But this isn't just a story of success — it's a brutally honest look at motivation, body image, entrepreneurship, and the daily mental work it takes to keep going when things get hard.From growing up backstage in a Pennsylvania theater to running a global health brand with over a million users, Carl shares the emotional, mental, and spiritual tools that have kept him moving forward. You'll hear about the behind-the-scenes challenges of rebranding from Beachbody to BODi, the surprising role Broadway played in his journey, and his no-BS take on fitness fads, GLP-1s, and tech obsession.Are We Measuring Fitness Wrong?Carl and Karena unpack the myths of the wellness industry — including why the best fitness “tech” is already inside you.(00:01:50) The Birth of Beachbody: A Brand Built for People Who Hate Working OutCarl created Beachbody to help impatient, goal-oriented people get consistent without loving fitness.Success didn't come from being a guru — it came from being a relatable customer.“Day one to day done”: Programs need structure, not endless motivation.Community was always the secret sauce: message boards before social media.(00:09:30) From Infomercials to Shakeology to MLM: Lessons in IterationP90X's breakout success during the 2008 recession changed the game.Word-of-mouth became the strategy behind the multi-level model.“The customer who solves their lifestyle problem deserves the reward.”Carl defends the ethics and intent behind Beachbody's direct sales shift — and why it had to evolve.(00:15:43) GLP-1s, Obesity, and What the Industry Is Getting WrongCarl's stance: These meds are tools — but not solutions without resistance training and nutrition.“Lifestyle change is so hard… but if you can monetize your consistency? That's powerful.”The secret pill culture from the ‘90s is back — but smarter wellness demands a full-picture approach.Fitness tech is great — until it overrides your intuition.(00:18:46) Carl's Morning Routine: Cold Plunges, Kefir & Spinach ShakesWake-up time: ~5–6 AM, no alarm.Lemon water + ginger + olive oil + kefir shot = ritual jumpstart.3.5-minute cold plunge followed by a 45-min workout.Weekend DIY meal prep keeps him on track — and surprisingly, he hates vegetables.(00:24:00) The Power of Persistence: What's Made Him Relentless“It's about the objective — even if it's just influencing one person.”Reads company case studies and biographies to stay grounded.Avoids victim mindset: “Self-pity invites fear, and fear kills creativity.”Expansion, not perfection, keeps him engaged after 27 years.(00:28:34) Why He Changed “Beachbody” to “BODi” — And Faced the BacklashBeachbody = outdated ideals; BODi = well-being and “health esteem.Carl wanted his kids to grow up with a healthier message around body image.Despite board resistance, he pushed the rebrand through for long-term values.“Do I want to be known for six-pack abs… or for helping people love themselves enough to take care of themselves?” (00:33:32) Where Fitness Needs to Go: Simple, Sustainable, and...

Kefir changed my life—and I've watched it do the same for thousands of others. In this episode, I'm sharing how this powerful, probiotic-rich drink helped restore my health from the inside out. From lowering blood pressure and balancing blood sugar, to calming the nervous system and boosting immunity, kefir is a living food with ancient roots and modern-day miracles. If your body is crying out for help, kefir may just be the answer it's looking for.

In this bitesize episode, I speak to gut health expert Tim Spector about the link between the microbiome and mental health. Tim explains how the bacteria in your gut produce key brain chemicals like serotonin and GABA — and how what you eat affects stress, mood, energy and even sleep. We also talk about the hidden signs of poor gut health, why 'five-a-day' advice isn't enough anymore, and how ultra-processed foods are quietly reshaping our national health. I share a personal story of how fermented foods helped turn around my own anxiety — and why the gut is a good place to start if you're feeling off balance.

Episode 435: Rebuild Your Microbiome The Meat: What are the top 3 ways to rebuild your microbiome and the health of your gut? You want an INVINCIBLE microbiome! We're giving you the keys to the car. Number #1: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome…KEFIR. (Not the store bought stuff). Traditional, home fermented kefir. You can get powders from Cultured Food Life (our partner). Even those who think it's too hard… You can do it! You get up to 50 strains of healing bacteria… Drink daily if you can. Purchase Easy Starter: https://store.trimhealthymama.com/product/easy-kefir-powder/ Number #2: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… BAOBAB. Up to 2-3 TBSP per day Regular baobab consumption significantly increases gut microbiome diversity, as seen in both Hadza tribespeople and modern users, supporting better metabolic health. Baobab helps lower blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, partly due to its tartness and powerful polyphenols like epicatechin and procyanidins. It naturally promotes GLP-1 production, mimicking the effects of some blood sugar-lowering medications, especially when combined with kefir. Baobab is 70–80% fiber, with two-thirds being prebiotic, which fuels gut bacteria and leads to the creation of health-boosting postbiotics. Buy Our Baobab: https://store.trimhealthymama.com/product/baobab-boost-powder-11oz-bag/ Number #3: How to rebuild and cultivate the health of your microbiome… Fermented Plants. Compared to high-fiber foods alone, fermented veggies show significantly stronger and faster gut-health benefits. Fermented veggies increase gut microbe diversity, improving whole-body health and immune function. They help lower blood lipids, reduce inflammation, and support healthy weight and blood pressure. Fermented foods reduce the activation of immune cells and decrease inflammatory proteins like interleukin 6. The Power Veggies?
