Dr. Donald L. Smith is the Distinguished James McGill Professor in the Department of Plant Science at McGill University. He is also CEO of BioFuelNet Canada, Head of Biomass Canada, and Head of the McGill Network for Innovation on Biofuels and Bioproduct. Don's research examines relationships between plants and the microbes that live in association with them, particularly in the roots. He and his collaborators have discovered evidence of signaling between plants and microbes, including microbial signaling that causes plants to grow better. They also uncovered that plants respond much more strongly to signals in the presence of drought or cold stress. Now they are expanding their investigations to examine a wide range of plant-associated microbes to better understand the signals they send and how they may impact plant health and resilience. Outside of the lab, Don loves to unwind and recharge by going on walks and reading great novels. He is also an avid traveler who enjoys blending work with trips to new places whenever possible, turning conferences and collaborations into opportunities to explore the world. He received his Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Acadia University and his PhD from the University of Guelph. Afterwards, he worked as an Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) Postdoctoral Fellow at Agriculture Canada before joining the faculty at McGill University in 1985. Over the course of his career, Don has received many awards and honors, including, the Clean50 award for contributions to sustainable development and clean capitalism in Canada and the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal, in this case for significant contributions to intelligent agriculture . He is also a Fellow of the Canadian Society of Agronomy, and he served as a Member of the Canada-US think tank on climate change and agriculture in North Eastern North America. In our interview, Don shares more about his life and science.

Send a textIn this episode, I'm talking about boundaries in the body — not just emotional or relational boundaries, but biological ones.If you've been feeling porous, reactive, sensitive to everything around you, unable to regulate, or like you're absorbing more than you can hold… this may not be a personality flaw. It may be your terrain.We're in a season of repair, and I want to help you understand what's actually happening underneath the surface.I walk you through:• The gut lining as your first biological boundary• How intestinal permeability (leaky gut) creates chronic immune activation• Why histamine overload makes you feel allergic to life• How mineral depletion affects nervous system containment• The role of microbial diversity in strengthening or degrading your inner ecosystem• Why motility and drainage matter just as much as “sealing the gut”If your tight junctions are compromised, your immune system never fully stands down. If your microbiome is dysbiotic, inflammatory metabolites affect your mood, cognition, and stress response. If your minerals are depleted, your nervous system loses clarity and your cells lose their ability to hold a charge.This isn't woo. It's biology.And it's deeply connected to how you experience boundaries in your daily life.If you haven't already, I recommend listening to my earlier episode where I break down the mechanisms of leaky gut and metabolic endotoxemia in detail:

Welcome to Ep. 8 of Regen Radio, the podcast where we confront conventional agronomy and champion regenerative solutions that restore soil, revitalize farms, and release abundance.Powered by SoilCraft, our mission is to lead innovation in regenerative agronomy—empowering farmers to grow food that heals both the land and its people.In this episode, we dive into the dirty truth about phosphorus—one of the most essential yet mismanaged nutrients in modern agriculture.

Table ronde scientifiqueCe cycle de tables rondes invite des experts issus de différentes disciplines à apporter leur éclairage sur un thème qui agite la communauté scientifique ou, plus largement, la société. Cette sixième saison propose d'étudier l'invisible, comme les atomes, les virus ou les radiations, et d'interroger les risques qu'il pose lorsque les liens entre causes et effets sont difficiles à établir.La première séance est consacrée aux micro-organismes. Leur découverte (virus, bactéries…) a bouleversé l'histoire de la médecine aux XIXᵉ et XXᵉ siècles. Aujourd'hui, ils représentent à la fois de nouvelles menaces (virus émergents, antibiorésistance) et des acteurs essentiels de la vie sur Terre. Six ans après la pandémie de Covid-19, trois spécialistes font le point sur notre rapport complexe avec les microbes.Débat enregistré le 11 février 2026 à la BnF I François-Mitterrand.

Send a textMost people come to my work when they've hit an impasse.They've tried the diets. The protocols. The lab tests. The supplement stacks. They've run parasite cleanses, gut protocols, detoxes, hormone panels, food sensitivity tests — sometimes for years. And while pieces helped, nothing rebuilt their body in a way that felt stable or sustainable.In this episode, I'm naming what I see happening underneath that cycle.Many people aren't failing at healing. They're trying to force coherence without first restoring capacity.When we chase symptoms, isolate labels like SIBO, MCAS, histamine intolerance, adrenal fatigue, or hormone imbalance, and layer interventions onto an already overwhelmed system, the body adapts — until it can't.Your gut, nervous system, immune system, fascia, hormones, and mineral terrain don't operate as separate departments. They adapt together. And when we treat one piece without reorganizing the terrain underneath it, nothing holds.Real healing requires a parasympathetic pace.Your gut lining does not regenerate in fight-or-flight. Tight junctions don't seal under chronic stress. Missing keystone bacteria don't recolonize in a system that feels unsafe. Minerals don't rebalance when your nervous system is braced.In this episode, I walk through:Why elimination diets often narrow resilience instead of restoring itWhy protocol cycling creates fragmentationWhat Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) actually reveals about long-term stress patternsWhy gut remodeling only happens in contextWhy minerals are foundational to nervous system and microbiome repairWhat mentorship-based healing looks like instead of hand-off protocolsI share how I structure my Minerals & Microbes program — not as a quick fix, but as paced terrain work that builds capacity over time.This episode is for you if:You feel like you've “done everything” and are still stuckYou're burned out on protocolsYou want to rebuild instead of manageYou're ready for coherence, not more intensityHealing isn't about surrendering authority.It's about reclaiming it — with guidance.If this conversation brings relief instead of urgency, you're probably in the right place.You can learn more about working with me through my Minerals & Microbes program on my website.Support the show Support the podcast Mineral Foundations Course HERE Minerals & Microbes package HERE Rewilded Wellness program HERE Join my newsletter HERE If you are interested in becoming a client and have questions, reach out by emailing me: lydiajoyme@gmail.com Find me on Instagram : @ Lydiajoy.me

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is the host of Functional Health Radio, an established healthcare professional with expertise in functional medicine, chiropractic care, and neuroinflammation. With a rich background in educating medical, chiropractic, and dental professionals, Dr. Kristin is dedicated to translating complex medical research into practical knowledge for both her peers and the general public. She regularly integrates insights from reputable medical journals into her work and travels to share her knowledge at various continuing education events for healthcare providers. Episode Summary: In this engaging episode of Functional Health Radio, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the implications of COVID-19 as a brain disease, discussing its impact on long-term neurological health and offering insights into potential therapeutic strategies. Highlighting the struggles faced by the 225 million individuals worldwide known as "Covid long haulers," Dr. Kristin shares her expertise on the often debilitating neurological symptoms that persist in many patients well after recovery from the initial infection. Throughout the episode, Dr. Kristin explores the science behind COVID-19's effects on the brain, emphasizing the structural impact of the virus's spike proteins and their lingering presence. By referencing several studies, including those published in top-tier journals such as Molecular Neurobiology and Nature Medicine, she discusses the immune-mediated pathways that lead to neuroinflammation, cognitive deficits, and reduced gray matter in COVID-19 patients. She sheds light on the necessity for personalized protocols when treating long-haul symptoms, combined with the use of low-level lasers, supplements, and lifestyle changes to promote healing and brain health. Key Takeaways: COVID-19 can have long-term neurological effects, leading to symptoms such as brain fog, memory loss, and anxiety. Spike proteins from the virus remain in the body, contributing to neuroinflammation and facilitating long-term cognitive issues. Integral therapeutic approaches include tailored supplementation, regular exercise, low-level laser therapy, and controlled doses of methylene blue. Variability in patient responses necessitates highly individualized treatment plans to manage and potentially reverse symptoms. Maintaining brain health requires attention to exercise, nutrition, and supplementation to combat the inflammatory effects of the virus. Notable Quotes: "Both long Covid and COVID vaccine can sometimes create things like brain fog, neuroinflammation, and long term sequelae." "We have more abnormal than normal brains in the world." "The COVID spike proteins, they hang out at the base of the skull, throughout the skull, in a system called the duromeningeal system." "COVID long haulers have way too much inflammation. Low-level laser can help you with that." "For every nerve that goes from the brain to the stomach, nine go back up." Resources: PubMed: Molecular Neurobiology, July 2021 Journal Article: Cell Host and Microbe, Volume 32, 2024 Dr. Greg Fors - BioSpec Nutritionals: Mito Detox 3 Nature Medicine, Volume 31, 2025 Listeners are encouraged to dive into this informative episode to understand fully the complex nature of COVID-19 as a brain disease and its long-term implications on health.

Send a textIf you've been listening to the first few episodes of this year, you know I've been walking us through something intentional — not adding more information, but helping us feel what's been happening underneath the surface in our bodies and nervous systems.In the first episode, I named the shadow crisis beneath the wellness movement.In the second, I talked about how oversimplified, certainty-based wellness backfires in real bodies.In the last episode, I unpacked how science and studies have quietly become authority instead of tools — and what that does to trust and regulation.Today, I'm taking this one step further.Because something bigger is shifting.We're living through a collective decentralization of authority — culturally, technologically, and biologically. And people are feeling it in their bodies before they can explain it.Less tolerance for vague answers.More irritation with one-size-fits-all advice.A nervous system that won't settle when something feels off.A growing refusal to override internal signals just because an expert says you should.This episode explores what's ending — the era of endurance, confusion, and endless tolerance — and what's emerging instead: agency, discernment, and healing through relationship rather than hierarchy.I talk about:why sensitivity without containment leads to exhaustionhow endless awareness became paralysiswhy decisiveness is regulatingwhat decentralization actually feels like in the nervous systemhow to restore inner authority without rejecting science or guidanceand why real healing requires pacing, feedback, and collaborationThis isn't an anti-expert conversation. It's not anti-science. And it's not about doing everything alone.It's about moving out of compliance-based care — where authority overrides lived experience — and into relational care, where guidance supports your body instead of replacing it.Healing doesn't happen through force, endurance, or isolation. It happens through rhythm, feedback, pacing, and relationship.If you've felt less willing to tolerate what doesn't fit, less patient with vague answers, or more aware that your body needs to be consulted instead of managed — this episode will help you understand why.And if you're ready for support that works this way, I share how I approach healing inside my Minerals & Microbes program — using mineral and microbiome mapping as orientation tools, not diagnoses, so we can move coherently and sustainably.This is about reclaiming authority without losing wisdom.About guidance without hierarchy.About healing that feels human again.Support the show Support the podcast Mineral Foundations Course HERE Minerals & Microbes package HERE Rewilded Wellness program HERE Join my newsletter HERE If you are interested in becoming a client and have questions, reach out by emailing me: lydiajoyme@gmail.com Find me on Instagram : @ Lydiajoy.me

What if the secret to lasting metabolic health isn't about eating less, but about restoring what modern life has stripped away? This week on Health Coach Talk, Dr. Sandi sits down with cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author Dr. William Davis to discuss his groundbreaking work on the microbiome and his latest book, SUPER Body. Dr. Davis challenges conventional wisdom on weight loss, shifting the focus from the numbers on the scale to the critical balance of muscle preservation and the elimination of internal visceral fat.Full show notes: https://functionalmedicinecoaching.org/podcast/william-davis-167/

Send us a textWelcome back to the Rewilded Wellness Podcast. I'm your host, Lydia Joy.Today's episode builds directly on the last two I released this year:In The Shadow Crisis Beneath the Wellness Movement, we named the bigger paradigm people are trying to heal inside of—over-treatment, information overload, loss of containment, and the way modern wellness inherited an intervention-first mindset.In The Epidemic of Oversimplified Wellness — and Why It Backfires, we looked at how single-nutrient narratives and influencer-style certainty destabilize real bodies.Today, I'm pulling on the next thread: the study obsession—and how “science” is being used as authority instead of context, leaving people disconnected from their own biology.I also name the wider backdrop we're living in: Pluto in Aquarius (through 2044)—a long era where power struggles move through information itself: who controls it, who interprets it, and who we're taught to trust. You don't have to be into astrology to feel what's happening: nervous systems fried by information velocity, algorithms replacing embodied knowing, collapsing trust in institutions, and a decentralization of authority that is both necessary and chaotic.This is not an anti-science episode.It's an anti-outsourcing-your-inner-authority episode.We'll talk about what research is actually for (tools, mechanisms, hypotheses)—and what happens when studies become universal rules, moralized “truth,” or permission slips that override basic biological feedback.Inside this conversation, I break down:why most people aren't reading studies, they're absorbing claims about studieshow narrow, short-term, artificial research gets used as life prescriptionswhy “science-backed” becomes a form of compliance that traps the nervous systemhow constant correction creates incoherence, vigilance, depletion, and loss of trustwhat an ecosystem lens looks like instead—where information informs, but does not dominateAt the higher expression of this era, the invitation isn't to reject knowledge—it's to contextualize it. To decentralize authority without collapsing into chaos. To restore the relationship between you and your body so that data can support discernment instead of replacing it.If you've been doing everything “right,” reading all the research, following the data—and still not getting the results you were promised… this episode is for you.And if you're ready for more coherent support, I share how I work through my Minerals & Microbes program using HTMA and microbiome mapping as terrain tools—not diagnoses—so we can organize, pace, and build stability over time.Support the show Support the podcast Mineral Foundations Course HERE Minerals & Microbes package HERE Rewilded Wellness program HERE Join my newsletter HERE If you are interested in becoming a client and have questions, reach out by emailing me: lydiajoyme@gmail.com Find me on Instagram : @ Lydiajoy.me

In today's interview, we sit down with Ken Somerville, host of the YouTube channel It's All About the Biology. Ken shares his growing journey, his approach to cultivation, and the deeper spiritual connection he has developed through growing and using cannabis. We also talk openly about Ken's health journey. He's had several close encounters with death and has dealt with serious health issues along the way, and he explains how cannabis played a meaningful role in his recovery and ongoing wellbeing. It's an honest, reflective conversation that goes far beyond growing techniques. This one runs a little longer than usual, but for good reason. It's relaxed, thoughtful, and packed with perspective. So roll a couple of extra fat ones, settle in, and enjoy a genuinely insightful interview. Do you have any suggestions for guest on the show?

Send us a textIn this episode, I take a close look at how health misinformation spreads in modern wellness culture — and why it's so destabilizing to the nervous system, especially in the Information Age.People often ask me to review things they see on Instagram or explain whether a claim is “true.” I'm not here to fact-check the internet — but I am here to help you build discernment. Because when you don't have a filter, your nervous system becomes the filter. That's how people end up overwhelmed, confused, and disconnected from their bodies.Building on the previous episode about the shadow side of wellness culture, I walk through a real Instagram carousel as a case study. The post claims that vitamin D determines whether calories become fat or muscle, backed by PubMed citations and a personal transformation story.This episode slows that claim down.We explore:• Why single-nutrient narratives oversimplify human physiology• How PubMed studies are often misused or misunderstood• Why animal studies and unrelated research don't equal clinical truth• How transformation stories create false certainty• Why changing a lab number doesn't mean healing occurred• How nutrient chasing creates new imbalances• Why this model backfires faster in women's bodies• And how wellness content trains people to outsource discernmentThis is not an episode about vitamin D.It's about how reductionistic health advice erodes trust, fuels protocol fatigue, and keeps people chasing fixes instead of restoring stability.I also share why I work from an ecosystem-based approach using minerals and the microbiome — and why healing requires context, pacing, and nervous system safety, not more force.If you're exhausted by wellness advice and ready for a more coherent way to understand your body, this conversation will help sharpen your filter and protect your biology.Support the show Support the podcast Mineral Foundations Course HERE Minerals & Microbes package HERE Rewilded Wellness program HERE Join my newsletter HERE If you are interested in becoming a client and have questions, reach out by emailing me: lydiajoyme@gmail.com Find me on Instagram : @ Lydiajoy.me

This week on Hysteria 51, we're chasing two flavors of “are we alone?” and one of them is suspiciously nacho-adjacent.First, the skies over Area 51 served up a late-night special: a mysterious “Dorito-shaped” aircraft spotted cruising near the world's most side-eye-worthy patch of desert. Was it a classified test flight, a stealth prototype, or the most aggressive brand sponsorship in aviation history? Either way, if it looks like a triangle and haunts the Nevada night, we're legally obligated (by podcast law) to investigate.Then we rocket to Mars, where NASA says the Perseverance rover found a rock with intriguing “leopard spot” patterns inside Jezero Crater that could be a potential biosignature, meaning ancient chemical reactions that might be consistent with microbial life. Not “we found Martians,” but definitely “this rock is acting extremely sus.”So buckle up for an episode packed with UFO vibes, Area 51 sightings, Mars rover discoveries, and the eternal question: are we staring at evidence of secret tech… or secret life… or just humanity's unstoppable urge to turn every weird shape into a headline?Links & Resources

The icy-white crust of Arctic permafrost is melting, and increased plant growth is turning the glacial north green. Metals like iron, once locked inside the ice, are leaching into hundreds of Arctic rivers, giving them an orange hue. Vivid changes may catch our eye, yet invisible shifts are also afoot. Microbes locked in the frozen ground since the age of the mammoths can now be revived when they thaw.

First up with Jennie Erin Smith, Science's new senior biomedicine reporter, we delve into: autobrewery syndrome, when microbes inside the human gut make too much alcohol; how doctors can use a public repository, the Mexican Biobank, to guide patient care; and preliminary findings that surgery on the brain's plumbing shows promise for Alzheimer's disease. Next on the show, it's tough to calculate when and where deorbiting spacecraft might enter the upper atmosphere and then eventually hit the ground. Benjamin Fernando, a seismologist and planetary scientist at Johns Hopkins University, has shown that sonic booms created by fast-moving space debris shake seismic sensors, giving clues to angle of re-entry, breakup dynamics, and final location.

Seventy percent of the protein your herd uses for lactation is derived from the microbial population in her rumen. Researchers from UC Davis and Feedworks USA sought to learn more about how different substrates might impact rumen microbial efficiency. They did this with the ultimate goal of increasing the flow of protein available for absorption to help offset feed costs, recognizing protein is the highest cost of the ration, and likely the largest fraction to the cost of production on most dairies. “We know that efficency of growth in the rumen varies dramatically, nearly 2 fold. Microbes can use 1/3 of their energy for growth or as much as 2/3,” Hackmann described. His lab is using invitro cultures to attempt to determine why this variation exists. “If we can pinpoint cause then we can accomidate and make microbes grow more efficiently and deliver more protein to the ruminant at a lower cost.” Past models, used in ration formulation software such as CNCPS, claim rumen bacteria perform digestion more efficiently when fed cellulose, over glucose. However, featured work by Dr. Tim Hackmann's invitro lab suggests a different result. “We found there will be a larger mass of microbes that grow on glucose then cellulose but they also digest more, so the efficiency is not differnet.” Listen-in to this episode for in interesting dive into the expected changes in the rumen under these conditions. An added bonus banter from Dr. Benjamin Wenner, ruminant nutritionist with FeedWorks USA and co-author on the featured article, about the futuristic concepts possible for ruminant nutrition with mindful investment.

Microbes are little alchemists that perform all manner of chemical reactions. A team of microbiologists co-founded a non-profit to try to harness those abilities to solve some of the world's big problems — from carbon capture to helping coral reefs to cleaning up waste. Recently, the team turned their attention to the microbes living in people's homes — on and in shower heads, drip pans, and hot water heaters. These rather extreme environments may have pressured microorganisms into surviving in ways that could be advantageous to humans.

Macros, Microbes, Mindset — and What Comes Next If you're ready for a different kind of January — an invitation Over the last few episodes, we've talked about why so many smart, motivated women feel stuck with food — even when they're “doing everything right.” We've unpacked: Why macros alone don't create peace How your gut microbiome influences cravings, energy, and metabolism Why willpower fails when the nervous system doesn't feel safe And how emotional and physiological triggers often get mislabeled as “lack of discipline” In this episode, we zoom out and bring it all together — because empowered eating isn't about choosing one approach. It's about integration. What Empowered Eating Really Means Empowered eating lives at the intersection of three things: 1. Values Sustainable nutrition starts with knowing what matters most to you. Not Instagram's definition of health. Not rigid rules. But your values — family, faith, energy, longevity, joy, impact. When health goals align with values, consistency feels meaningful instead of forced. 2. Biofeedback Your body is constantly communicating through: Hunger and fullness Cravings Energy and mood Digestion and stress responses These signals aren't obstacles to overcome — they're data to interpret. When we learn to listen instead of override, the nervous system settles, clarity increases, and change becomes sustainable. 3. Nutrition Science Science still matters. Fuel matters. Structure matters. But nutrition science works best when it's applied in context — alongside your biology, your nervous system, and your real life. Macros, gut health, hormones, and metabolism are tools — not moral scorecards. The Big Takeaway Empowered eating isn't about control. It's about partnership. When values guide the direction, biofeedback provides the information, and nutrition science offers the tools — food stops being the fight, and health becomes a platform instead of a pressure point.

This is a grounded, unflinching conversation that pushes back against the misrepresentations and surface-level critiques that have come to dominate discussions around GNM. Joined by Natasha Nazerali, we explore what German New Medicine actually claims, where it is most commonly misunderstood, and why it provokes such strong emotional and institutional resistance. Rather than positioning GNM as a replacement for conventional medicine, this episode invites a more mature inquiry into nature, meaning, biology, conflict, and coherence—examining the premise that the human organism is not separate from nature, but an expression of its intelligence. From this view, symptoms are not random malfunctions, but intelligible processes arising from the same natural laws that govern all life. This is not an episode for blind belief or ideological camps, but for sincere truth-seekers willing to think clearly, question narratives, and engage with a controversial framework on its own terms.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser (00:41) Opening Conversation (02:44) Welcome Today's Guest (05:11) The Popularity & Misunderstandings of German New Medicine (10:25) Biological Laws and Their Significance (15:09) The Role of Microbes and Toxins (15:54) The Fifth Biological Law: Quintessence (17:07) Political Environment and Controversies (19:14) Dr. Hamer's Legacy and Naming Controversy (35:09) Case Studies and Scientific Claims (50:22) Overcoming Initial Client Challenges (52:16) Debating the Validity of German New Medicine (53:57) Experiencing Nature and Biological Connection (56:44) The Role of Toxins and Adaptation (01:04:00) Personal Experiences with GNM (01:21:16) The Sacredness of Biological WisdomGuest Linkshttps://www.natashanazerali.com/ The Bio-Logical Woman Course Previous Episodes with NatashaNew to GNM?

Welcome to our very first Natural Super Kids Podcast episode of 2026! We hope you've had a beautiful festive season with your family, wherever you are in the world. ❄️☀️This week on the podcast, we're kicking off a new series with a topic so many parents are quietly struggling with: why eczema and allergies are becoming more common in kids (affecting almost 30% of children) and what actually helps beyond creams and avoidance.If your child has eczema, food sensitivities, hay fever, asthma, or “reacts to everything,” this episode will help you zoom out and understand what's really going on inside their immune system without blame, guilt, or overwhelm.Have a listen as we break down the bigger picture behind rising allergy rates, explain why this isn't something you caused, and introduce a more hopeful, long-term way to support your child's health from the inside out.In this episode, we explore:Why eczema and allergies are so common in kids today, and why this rise can't be explained by genetics alone.How modern lifestyles affect the immune system, including what the hygiene hypothesis really means (and what it doesn't).The role of the gut and microbiome in eczema and allergic disease, and why immune regulation matters more than suppression.What parents can realistically influence at home, even when wider environmental factors feel out of your control.

What if the reason food feels harder than it should has less to do with discipline… and more to do with digestion? In this episode, we zoom out from calorie counting and macro math to explore the powerful — and often overlooked — role your gut microbiome plays in how your body responds to food. Your gut isn't just breaking food down; it's actively communicating with your brain, hormones, immune system, and metabolism. You'll learn why two people can eat the same meals and feel completely different — and why sustainable health starts with listening, not controlling. In this episode, we cover: Why macros are a tool, not the foundation of health How gut bacteria “interpret” calories and influence metabolism The gut–brain connection and why stress impacts digestion How inflammation and microbiome imbalance can drive cravings and plateaus A spotlight on Akkermansia muciniphila — a key bacteria linked to metabolic health, appetite regulation, and efficient calorie use Why food struggles are often biological data, not personal failure Simple shifts that support your gut without extreme rules or restriction Key takeaway: Calories aren't just counted — they're interpreted. When your gut is supported, food decisions feel clearer, calmer, and more aligned with your body's needs.

How do most organisms in the natural world communicate? It's through the language of chemistry. Scripps Institution of Oceanography marine biologists Bradley Moore and Natalie Grayson explore how ocean life uses molecules as a language. Examples include a pigment that lets squid and octopus change color for camouflage, a coral and its microbial partners that produce biologically active compounds, and a chemical now in phase three human clinical trials to treat glioblastoma, an aggressive cancer of the brain. Their research has applications for new materials in biotech, and improving the food supply and human health. Series: "Jeffrey B.

REGISTER HERE! Click the link for DATES, DETAILS, and FAQs! In this timely New Year's episode, Dr. Scott Watier and Tommy Welling unpack groundbreaking research published in Cell Host and Microbe revealing why holiday emotional eating isn't a character flaw but a metabolic brain loop driven by gut-produced molecules that hijack your stress response. They explain how the microbial metabolite imidazole propionate (IMP) crosses into the brain and fundamentally alters stress-coping circuitry, causing a "freeze" response that makes you reach for food when overwhelmed rather than exploring healthier options. The hosts connect this mechanism to the 88% of Americans living with metabolic dysfunction, demonstrating how insulin resistance, gut dysbiosis, and blood sugar dysregulation create a vicious cycle where stressed brains default to emotional eating as a neurobiological coping strategy. They provide actionable solutions including establishing foundational fasting habits, using continuous glucose monitors for real-time feedback, removing ultra-processed foods that feed harmful gut bacteria, and implementing simple stress-management tools that rewire the gut-brain-metabolism connection. This episode offers scientific validation and practical strategies for starting 2026 with momentum rather than guilt-driven New Year's resolutions. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Microbes are awesome, says biologist Paula Welander. They have shaped Earth's chemistry and its environment over billions of years, including oxygenating the planet to make it habitable for larger life forms. In turn, microbes have been shaped by that very same environment, evolving as the climate has evolved, she says. Welander now studies the lipid membranes of ancient microbes, which can endure for millions of years, to understand this evolution and where we might be headed in the future. Microbes are our connection to the ancient world, Welander tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

A team of scientists is trying to jumpstart a global conservation movement, on par with efforts to save the rainforests or protect the oceans. But it might be even more ambitious because the target of their quest is invisible, everywhere, and mostly something we try to hand-sanitize away: microbes.So how do you conserve something that is everywhere and in everything? And why do microbes need protecting to begin with? Host Flora Lichtman digs into it with microbial ecologist Jack Gilbert, who is leading this charge. They chat about the thinking behind microbe conservation plans, and why some scientists are hesitant to jump onboard.Guest: Dr. Jack Gilbert is a microbial ecologist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and co-chair of the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Species Survival Commission's Microbial Conservation Specialist Group. Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

With a background in biochemistry and molecular biology and a passion for critical thinking, Liev challenges modern scientific dogma and offers a radically different perspective—one rooted in true empirical observation, logic, ancestral wisdom, and personal responsibility. From microbiology myths to spiritual health, Beyond Terrain pulls apart the mainstream narrative and builds a more coherent, grounded framework for life and healing.

Deserts present a unique set of challenges to plants, especially when you are trying to restore them to the landscape. Drought, heat, soil salinity and more can make desert plant restoration seriously challenging. Luckily, Ali Schuessler and her colleagues at the Desert Botanical Garden are working hard to understand if soil microbes like fungi can help put ecosystems back together. Join us for a fascinating look at this process.
