Dr. William Davis is a guest we've had on the show many times before. This time we invited Dr. Davis back to explain why he feels that Health Coaches are the perfect healthcare practitioners to help unwell humans get to the root cause of their health issues. As he sees it, by focusing on relatively simple diet and lifestyle changes, this will positively affect the incredibly diverse and important human intestinal microbiome and lead to improved health. In this episode, Dr. Davis shares with us why he (a cardiologist) moved away from surgery for heart issues and focused instead on lifestyle. He also dives deep into how to get the cardiac help you need, the new and unconventional approaches to heart disease prevention, and how the intestinal microbiome is tied to so many health outcomes. Erin and Laura also ask Dr. Davis a handful of the questions you, the listener, had about the intestinal microbiome. To you, health coaches out there: do yourself a favor and get a copy of Dr. Davis' book Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight and be sure to check out primalhealthcoach.com. to enroll in our new specialty certification course, the Human Intestinal Microbiome in Health and Disease. Dr. Davis wrote this program exclusively for us to help arm you health coaches with the knowledge you need to help millions and millions of people found at https://www.primalhealthcoach.com/human-intestinal-microbiome-specialist-certification/ There's a ton to learn from this episode, and honestly, Erin and Laura really just scratched the surface with Dr. William.

In this episode, Angela is talking with Dr Megan Rossi ‘The Gut Health Doctor', one of the most influential gut health specialists internationally. A practicing Dietitian and Nutritionist for the last decade with an award-winning PhD in gut health and leading research fellow at King's College They discuss why you need to nourish not only your cells but also the trillions of micro-organisms in the body and how the diversity diet is the key to optimising your microbiome With five key principles, it's about what you can add to your diet and the impact of diversity in plants optimising your gut health to support your body KEY TAKEAWAYS The diversity diet is a practical diet and is about adding things in to support all aspects of good health. Enjoy mostly plants and make it diverse Science shows those people who have more plant diversity in their diet have better gut health Eat whole not refined, where you can and think about the community aspect of food – tasting, pausing, and enjoying Think about what you are including versus what you are excluding The more healthy food you eat the more you crave it Eating dietary fibre means your gut bacteria can break it down and access chemicals that are beneficial across the body If you are struggling with hormones adding more plants to your diet can help to bring back balance There is good evidence that, if there is a family history of eczema, taking a specific probiotic during pregnancy and for a period beyond can significantly reduce the likelihood of eczema Stress can be a trigger for many inflammatory conditions including gut symptoms People who include gluten in their diet have a more diverse range of bacteria than those who restrict it unnecessarily If you are cutting something from your diet you need to think about what you are replacing it with Many food additives are now being retested as our knowledge of gut microbiomes has increased Having the whole food is always preferable to something processed Adding more legumes into your diet can increase your life span by around two years BEST MOMENTS ‘Food should be enjoyed, and studies show, if we have pleasure in food we are likely to live longer and stick to healthy eating principles' ‘Enjoy your favourite foods and add in plant foods' ‘Those who eat at least thirty different plants have better gut health' VALUABLE RESOURCES High Performance Health Podcast Series -https://angelafosterperformance.com/podcasts/ Free Fasting Guide -https://angelafosterperformance.com/fasting/ Free Health Check & Personalised Report -https://www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com/ Join Angela's Female Biohacker Community -https://www.facebook.com/groups/femalebiohacker Biohack Your Way to Your Best Self - Join My Exclusive Female Biohacker Collective - www.angelafosteracademy.com/female-Biohacker-collective Get a free health check and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Watch my Free Masterclass on how to master your metabolism - www.angelafosteracademy.com/master-your-metabolism Download my free Guide to Harmonising Your Hormones - www.angelafosterperformance.com/hormones Download my free Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fasting/ Download my free Guide to Sleep Like a Boss - www.angelafosterperformance.com/sleep Join my free Facebook Community - www.facebook.com/groups/femalebiohacker Get my bestselling book Rethink Health - https://amzn.to/3vbzYOV Eat Yourself Healthy - Dr Megan Rossi Eat More, Live Well - Dr Megan Rossi Instagram @TheGutHealthDoctor.

"The evolution of the nucleus may have initially occurred . . . because of this coevolutionary dynamic with giant viruses," says Professor Frank Aylward. He shares several mysterious tidbits of giant virus evolution and how these particles may have caused evolutionary pressures that produced everything from the silica shell of diatoms to cellular metabolism. Listen and learn What determines giant viruses, an interesting group of DNA viruses that infect eukaryotes, How scientists think microbial evolution led to their large size, What genomics and bioinformatics tells scientists about giant viral genomes and why they're still surrounded by mystery, and Why giant virus genome evolution indicates some exciting dynamics of viral indigenization. Frank Aylward is an assistant professor of biological sciences, at Virginia Tech. He specializes in microbial diversity and is fascinated by the abundance of microbes "that play critical roles in human health, the evolution of life on Earth, biogeochemical cycling, and the biosphere." Lately, he's focuses on giant viruses. These viruses are distinct for their size and their propensity to only infect eukaryotes. This means, for example, that while giant viruses and bacteriophage have different domain hosts, they're just as abundant, present in waters alongside marine bacteria, in soil, and even in freshwater. He shares numerous fascinating aspects of what these viruses tell us about our world. For example, they may have developed their size from an evolutionary effort of tricking amoeba into eating them. They practice biological mimicry, mimicking the look of the microbes that amoeba like to eat, so the amoeba will phagocytose it: the Mimi virus actually stands for mimicking microbe. Professor Aylward shares more about the natural history of these viruses, down to their connection with cellular nuclei and metabolism. Listen in for more about the magic in microbial diversity.

In this podcast, Editor-in-Chief Kelly A. Tappenden, PhD, RD, interviews Daniel Teitelbaum, MD, about his article "Intestinal Microbial Diversity and Perioperative Complications," published in the April 2014 issue of JPEN. https://doi.org/10.1177/0148607113486482
Metagenomics has revealed hundreds to thousands of microbial species coexisting in almost all microbiota. It is increasingly appreciated that microbial communities condition their own environments. To better understand the role of this environmental conditioning in promoting diversity, we physically model the population dynamics of microbes that compete for steadily supplied resources. In a model where cells require multiple nutrients, we find that population dynamics generally leads to the coexistence of different metabolic types, which satisfy an extended competitive exclusion principle. Moreover, we establish that these consortia of metabolic types act as cartels, whereby population dynamics pins down resource concentrations at values for which no other strategy can invade. Strikingly, these cartels also yield maximum biomass, constituting a microbial example of Adam Smith’s “invisible hand” leading to collective optimal usage of resources. Curiously, in a model where only total resource acquisition is considered, diversity can arbitrarily exceed that predicted by the competitive exclusion principle.
Probiotics are everywhere. But what’s the deal with these strains of bacteria that are supposed to work wonders for our guts and – therefore – our overall health? This week on Our Nature, Ara Katz, the co-founder and co-CEO of Seed is on the show to demystify the microbiome. Seed is a life science and consumer health company focused on the microbiome and its undeniable potential in shaping the future of human and planetary health. Before founding Seed, Ara co-founded the mobile commerce company Spring and was named in Marie Claire’s The New Guard: The 50 Most Influential Women in the US. Being someone who has studied digestion through the Ayurvedic perspective, I thought I already knew a lot about the microbiome and our gut bacteria, but Ara brings a wealth of fascinating and lesser-known information to this episode in a way that is easy to understand and assimilate. Seed empowers their customers to learn about gut health first so they can then make informed decisions. Wait until you hear this episode – you’ll be so much more thoughtful about your daily practices after hearing what Ara has to say about the bacteria inside our bodies. In this episode we talk about: what the microbiome is and what it does for us, how the microbiome has shifted as we’ve evolved (or as Ara called it - the climate change of our insides), why big pharma and science are very different and why this distinction is so important, the multiple microbiomes that live in areas other than our gut, why not all probiotics are the same, the myths and misunderstandings about probiotics and what’s actually true, what you can do to increase your microbial diversity (the answer isn’t just take probiotics), how to know if the probiotics you are taking are “working,” and so much more. Get ready to go deep!QUOTES:When it comes to your microbiome - “Help them, help you.” - Ara Katz“We’re actually learning about our bodies through marketing campaigns and through products that claim to do something and I’m not sure that that serves us.” - Ara Katz“The greatest marker of health is resilience. It’s the idea that under some antagonism, how soon (and in what way) can you return to that place of stasis.” - Ara Katz“People need a door to walk through and they need someone to extend a hand to walk them through it.” - Ara Katz“The only way that I believe people can get better is by being empowered with the truths of the things that they can do – or choose not to do – that don’t cost them anything.” - Ara KatzRESOURCES:Seed The Human Genome ProjectD-Mannose for UTIsSHOW NOTES:Why people are so invested in the microbiome right now?How our microbiome has become a symbol for the marriage of eastern and western health philosophiesWhat is the microbiome and what it does for usOur multiple microbiomes and what we know about them so farHow the microbiome has shifted as we’ve evolvedThe climate change of our insides - what has caused the microbiome to shift over multiple generationsWhat has supported our microbiome in the pastWhat menstruation does to our microbiomeThe story of why Ara founded SeedHow big pharma and science are different and why that’s such an important distinction to makeWhat probiotics are and why Seed probiotics are differentAll about allostasisHow Seed probiotics account for the fact that every person’s microbiome is differentWhy SEED probiotics need to be refrigeratedHow long before Seed probiotics start working and how to determine whether they are workingSeed’s new research on developing a revolutionary treatment for UTI’s that don’t involve antibiotics99% of bacteria are neutral or goodWhy Kimchi and Kombuchas don’t have probiotic impactHow sex disrupts our microbiomeThe relationship between science and spiritualityThe Last 5 Questions!THE LAST 5 QUESTIONS:What is your favorite place in nature?

Cheese rinds contain microbial communities that are relatively simple to study in the lab while offering insight into other, more complex microbial ecosystems. Rachel Dutton discusses her work studying these cheese microbiomes, one of the few microbial ecosystem types where almost all of the microorganisms are culturable. Subscribe (free) on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Android, RSS, or by email. Also available on the ASM Podcast Network app. Julie’s Biggest Takeaways The cheese microbiome makes a great study system because The communities are relatively simple (as few as 3 different microbial species) The microbial members are almost all culturable (in stark contrast to most microbial communities) The microbes colonize the cheese rind as a biofilm, which consists of the microbes and their secreted extracellular products. Like all biofilm communities, architecture and spatial structure are important for microbial interactions on cheese rinds, as are oxygen gradations, food access, and proximity to microbial neighbors. Rachel and her lab performed DNA sequencing on over 150 cheese samples from 10 countries to identify the microbes present on these rinds. By comparing these sequences to those they could grow in the lab (Rachel’s lab makes “in vitro” cheese medium consisting of desiccated, autoclaved cheese), they realized almost all of the organisms identified by molecular means were present in their cultures. Does the cheese environment influence the microbial communities or do the microbial communities influence the cheese environment? Both! The pH, temperature, added salt and temperature act as knobs or dials that allow cheese makers to fine tune the final cheese product. Rachel was inspired to work on cheese after taking the Microbial Ecology course at Woods Hole, where the students spent a lot of time looking at the beautiful but complex interactions within microbial mats. Upon cutting open some Tomme de Savoie from a French colleague, she noted similarities between the microbial mat and the layered cheese rind Featured Quotes “The biofilm that colonizes the surface of the cheese has a lot to do with how the cheese ends up looking and smelling and tasting, and we actually eat this biofilm when we eat the cheese.” “We’re able to see that of all of the things that we identified by reasonable sequence abundance, we could also find them in culture. This told us that we were able to get a lot of these microbes in culture, which is not really possible in microbial ecosystems, but is one of the really strong advantages of working in the fermented food community.” “We’re looking at these interactions because they’re happening on cheese and we can study them in the lab but they are things that are happening broadly across ecosystems, which I think is very exciting.” “We’ve done some work on the succession of species over time. You have these very very reproducible successions over time, even though a lot of these cheeses are not inoculated with specific species; these are species that are coming in from the environment but they’re very reproducible communities. There are some beautiful dynamics that happen and we’re starting to look at the interactions between species that may be driving some of these dynamics.” “We have this big need for model systems. One of the things I hope is that we’ll have more people developing simple model systems for microbial ecology so we can compare results and see what the general principles are.” Links for This Episode MTM Listener Survey, only takes 3 minutes!

Jennifer Martiny describes the incredible microbial biodiversity of natural ecosystems such as soils and waterways. She explains how to add a bit of control in experiments with so many variables, and why categorizing microbial types is important for quantifying patterns. Host: Julie Wolf Subscribe (free) on iPhone, Android, RSS, or by email. You can also listen on your mobile device with the ASM Podcast app. Julie's biggest takeaways: Studying microbial community functions in their natural environment are harder to understand, but help us to parse the complexity of the natural world, in part because these experiments also include local flora and fauna that are often omitted in the controlled lab environment. Microbial cages - an actual physical barrier that contains a soil-based community - can help to disentangle the effects of the microbial community from those of the surrounding environment by adding a level of control by limiting interaction of microbes inside the nylon mesh cage with those outside of it. Are microbial functions redundant? It depends on what function you look at - respiration is a very common function, so it’s less likely to be affected by a change in microbiome composition. Other functions, such as degrading particular compounds, may have a stronger relationship between the microbes present and those functions. Microbes are hugely diverse! Jennifer’s comparison of all the diversity of the birds on Earth to a single bacterial taxon is mind-blowing! Microbial categorization may be hard, but the ability to group similar organisms is necessary to formulate hypotheses and conduct experiments. It’s important to remember the groupings are manmade and sometimes have to be reconstructed! Featured Quotes (in order of appearance) “One of the hardest things we study is not on the microbiology side but is on the ecosystem side, measuring those biochemical functions in the environment.” (10:05) “It’s not as if we are ever going to be able to study every particular organism out there and build a model with thousands of equations; instead what we really need to do is go after trade-offs and overall relationships that may hold across large groups, and in that way have some simple rules under different conditions like drought or temperature.” (16:45) "Modern birds evolved about 100, 125 million years ago. Two sequences that share the 16S gene, if it’s roughly 97% identical, probably diverged 150 million years ago. That means we are lumping in all the diversity within the bacteria group within one taxon, calling it a species, which is the equivalent of lumping all birds together!" (18:47) “It’s a bit overwhelming to imagine that for each 16S rRNA taxon, you could have as much functional, morphological, and behavioral diversity as what we see in all of birds!” (19:39) “In biology, we’re always using an operational definition but we don’t want to get too hung up on the definition and miss all the interesting patterns going on!” (20:49) “If you can start to quantify patterns, then you can start to ask ecological and even evolutionary questions about why we see those patterns.” (33:04) Links for this episode Jennifer Martiny Lab Home Page University of California Irvine Microbiome Initiative HOM Tidbit: TWIM 50: These things aren’t even bacteria!
