A Brand New Tool for Gut, Inflammation, and Brain Support: Holistic practitioner Jane Jansen details Essential Formulas' Dr. Ohhira's Postbiotic Fermented Food Concentrate, a non-GMO, gluten-free, dairy-free, capsule-free fermented paste in travel-friendly, non-refrigerated sachets. She explains the difference between probiotics and postbiotics, emphasizing that this concentrate delivers postbiotic metabolites (including short-chain fatty acids like butyrate, plus enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, peptides, and growth/repair factors) created via a five-year fermentation of 14 fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, and seaweeds; the paste contains no live probiotics because they are heat-killed. The discussion highlights use cases for people who don't tolerate fiber or probiotics (IBS, SIBO, Crohn's, ulcerative colitis), potential benefits for leaky gut, systemic inflammation, gut-brain/mitochondrial health, insulin resistance, children, and pets, and suggests it can complement Dr. Ohhira's capsules and may be taken less than daily.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared sits down with long-time herbalist Tom Dadant from Host Defense to break down the power and synergy of medicinal mushrooms and targeted herbs. They explore the science and tradition behind multi-mushroom formulas like Stamets 7, along with newer mycobotanical blends designed to support brain function, gut health, and immune balance. You'll learn how mushrooms like lion's mane, reishi, chaga, and turkey tail work alongside herbs such as turmeric, astragalus, and burdock to promote whole-body wellness. The conversation also highlights the importance of the gut-immune connection, prebiotic compounds in mushrooms, and why synergistic formulas may offer broader benefits than single ingredients alone. If you've been curious about how to use mushrooms effectively, this episode gives you a clear, practical framework to get started.Products:Host Defense Mushroom Blend PowdersStamets 7®MycoBotanicals® ImmuneMycoBotanicals® Brain & BodyMycoBotanicals® MicroBiomeVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Prebiotic soda. It's all the rage. Even Pepsi has one. And as gross as it sounds, apparently it's pretty good. So from our perspective, there are two primary ways to make a lot of money: sell prebiotic soda, or join congress.

The relationship between prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics is symbiotic, meaning they work together to support and maintain optimal gut health Prebiotics are nondigestible food components that promote the growth and activity of beneficial microorganisms in your intestines Probiotics are live beneficial bacteria that directly contribute to maintaining a healthy gut microbiome Postbiotics are bioactive compounds produced when your body digests prebiotics and probiotics; they're also produced during the fermentation process Prebiotics fuel the growth of probiotics, which in turn produce postbiotics that offer additional health benefits

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition: Using Saliva Testing, Food Sensitivity Labs, and Lifestyle to Find Root Causes: Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). He discusses using functional testing alongside conventional care to uncover “dysfunction” when standard labs appear normal. Davis describes assessing adrenal and metabolic stress via saliva testing for circadian cortisol patterns, cortisol-DHEA balance, sex hormones, secretory IgA, and melatonin, emphasizing clinical correlation and individualized “studies of one.” He outlines an approach targeting multiple “healing opportunities” (H-I-D-D-E-N: hormones, immune, digestion, detoxification, energy, nervous system) and applying D-R-E-S-S (diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation) rather than relying on supplements alone. A case example links chronic hives, medication-related weight gain, and food triggers identified through additional testing, including the Mediator Release Test. The discussion also covers stress-driven gut dysbiosis, digestion decline, and EFT tapping for stress-related symptoms, and notes FDN practitioners can be found via FDNtraining.com/medicine.

The "Ozempic Era" winner won't just be the company that ships the most pens...it'll be the one that provides the most holistic support for the patient's new metabolic reality. For years, Hims & Hers has been the gold standard for "full-stack" digital health, successfully turning stigmatized medical treatments into lifestyle rituals. But as they dive deeper into the GLP-1 market, the rules of the game have changed. As of March 2026, they've shifted away from "compounded" medications toward FDA-approved branded drugs like Wegovy. This move avoids legal and regulatory risks, but it creates a massive problem: They can no longer "bundle" supplements into the pill. Although accessibility of GLP-1 medications isn't the true challenge of obesity care any longer. Alternatively, the GLP-1 revolution faces a real problem with retention. Data shows that 62% of GLP-1 users quit within six months. Why? Side effects like "Ozempic Face" (loss of skin elasticity), significant muscle mass loss (up to 40% of weight lost), and debilitating GI issues. So, the future of Hims & Hers isn't just shipping injection pens; it's becoming a comprehensive metabolic health platform. And this likely involves a "dual-track" subscription model. On one track, the patient receives the branded GLP-1 pharmaceutical. On the second track, they also receive a customized monthly "metabolic health support kit." And I'd expect these support kits to include a customized monthly stack focused on Muscle Preservation (Protein, HMB, and Creatine), GI Defense (Fiber, Prebiotics, and Electrolytes), and Cosmetic Repair (Nutricosmetics). But to win the long game, Hims & Hers may need to look toward precision nutrition. Whether through AI-driven personalized supplements (like Tailored Script from TSI Group) or 3D-printed nutrient gummies (like Nourish3d), the goal is clear...every aspect of the "hard goods" strategy must move from a reactive "one-size-fits-all" approach to a proactive, personalized metabolic health care model.

What if your gut has been signaling a problem for your brain for years? That is exactly what the latest science on the gut microbiome and Parkinson's disease is revealing, and it begins with something as overlooked as constipation. If you have ever dismissed a sluggish digestive system as no big deal, this conversation may be the most important one you hear all year.Salad With a Side of Fries host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Martha Carlin, microbiome researcher, founder of The BioCollective and a woman who traded a corporate career for a microscope after her husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's at 44. What she has uncovered about gut bacteria, endotoxin load, the glycocalyx, and neurological decline is both startling and deeply actionable. This is not fear, it is fuel for better choices.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why chronic constipation is far more than a digestive inconvenience and how waste sitting in the colon produces an endotoxin load now linked to Parkinson's, depression, autism, and diabetes.✅ What the glycocalyx is, why it matters for everything from gut health to cardiovascular function, and how damage to this critical structure can spread throughout the entire body over time.✅ How H. pylori consumes dopamine in the gut, why that interaction may explain why Parkinson's disease medications lose effectiveness, and what the research from Harvard reveals about this connection.✅ The surprising ways that endurance athletics, over-cleaning with quaternary ammonium compounds, and glyphosate-exposed foods all quietly assault the gut microbiome and compound your risk over time.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Jeffrey Bland, Founder and President of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and President of Big Bold Health.

Dr. Jeffrey Bland, Founder and President of the Personalized Lifestyle Medicine Institute and President of Big Bold Health, is described as the “godfather of functional medicine.” He details the origins of functional medicine as a systems-biology, root-cause approach emphasizing diet, lifestyle, and supplements alongside conventional allopathic care, especially for chronic disease. Bland contrasts medication “number needed to treat” examples (statins and TNF-alpha blockers) with personalized lifestyle interventions, noting adherence challenges. He discusses GLP-1 weight-loss drugs as a major pharmacologic advance but raises concerns about long-term effects, discontinuation rates, side effects, and inadequate nutrition if food intake drops. Bland describes research on bitter compounds and gut “taste” receptors influencing GLP-1 and related hormones, links to Blue Zone diets, and introduces Big Bold Health's Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat and minimally processed, sustainably sourced fish oil products, the Omega-3 index, and targeted formulations with lutein/astaxanthin, plus ongoing clinical trials on immune aging and gene expression.

This conversation explores the complex and deeply human relationship between gut health and mental wellbeing. Srinivas Kamath shares insights from his research into the gut–brain axis, unpacking how hormones, stress, medication and diet intersect at the microbiome level. We discuss the limitations of current mental health treatments, the growing promise of prebiotics, and why personalised medicine may be the future of emotional and cognitive care. The episode also looks ahead to emerging research in longevity, GLP-1 therapies and the role of the gut in neurodegenerative disease, offering a grounded yet hopeful view of where this science is heading. Key Takeaways The gut and brain operate in constant two-way communication, influencing mood, cognition and emotional regulation. Chronic stress and elevated cortisol can compromise the gut lining, contributing to inflammation and so-called leaky gut. Female hormones shape the microbiome across the lifespan, and gut health in turn affects hormonal balance. Understanding an individual’s microbiome opens the door to truly personalised approaches to mental and emotional health. Many psychiatric medications alter the gut microbiome, which may explain common side effects and variable outcomes. Prebiotics play a foundational role in supporting a resilient and diverse microbiome.For most people, prebiotics are more effective and sustainable than probiotic supplementation alone. GLP-1 is central to appetite regulation, gut signalling and broader metabolic and mental health pathways. The vagus nerve acts as a key communication highway between the gut and the brain.Gut microbiome research is rapidly evolving, with more questions than definitive answers at this stage.

In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between gut health and thyroid function. While probiotics are often considered essential, emerging research shows that prebiotics may play a more critical role in supporting thyroid balance. Learn how your gut microbiome influences nutrient absorption, hormone conversion, immune activity, and inflammation—especially in conditions like Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism. We discuss the science behind short-chain fatty acids, leaky gut, SIBO, and why simply taking probiotics may not be enough. Discover why a targeted, data-driven approach to gut health can help improve thyroid outcomes and overall well-being. If you've been struggling with persistent thyroid symptoms, this episode reveals why healing the gut may be the missing link

We're following all of the gut health advice on the internet and our guts feel maybe worse than ever. We're bloated, we're constipated, AND all of the videos we're watching are contradicting each other. Do we have leaky gut? Should we be fibermaxxing? Why does the fiber make us fart so much?  On the Liz Moody Podcast, we're always looking for the real science that can actually change our lives, so today I'm joined by Dr. Karan Rajan, an NHS surgeon, who has worked with the UN, World Health Organization, and British Red Cross.  We're ranking gut health advice from social media, from the best advice to the advice you should definitely ignore.

This episode is brought to you by Troscriptions, Timeline, Joi and Blokes. In this conversation, Dr. Tim Spector breaks down why modern life has quietly dismantled our relationship with fermented foods and how that loss may be fueling inflammation, metabolic disease, and poor mental health. Drawing from the landmark Stanford fermented foods study, he explains how just a few daily servings of fermented foods lowered inflammatory markers by 25%, outperforming fiber alone in immune impact. He outlines the hierarchy of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, why ultra-processed foods sabotage gut health, and how eating 30 diverse plants per week can measurably improve mood, energy, and microbiome diversity. From reversing type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease to redefining stool health as a vital sign, Spector argues that restoring gut diversity may be one of the most powerful levers for extending healthspan — potentially adding ten more healthy years of life. ----- 00:00 – The Fermented Foods Study That Changed Everything 03:22 – Health Trends in 2026: Fiber vs. The Protein Craze 06:04 – The 30 Plants Per Week Rule 09:40 – Gut Health and Mental Health Connection 16:27 – What Modern Life Destroyed About Fermentation 21:55 – The Stanford Fermented Foods Study 24:31 – 3 Fermented Foods to Start Today 27:29 – Live vs. Dead Microbes (Postbiotics Explained) 38:56 – Probiotics vs. Prebiotics vs. Postbiotics 48:41 – The Biggest Destroyer of Gut Health 52:48 – The New Gut Health Metric (Nature Study) 01:01:56 – What Your Stool Says About Your Health 01:09:29 – Can Gut Health Reverse Chronic Disease? 01:13:02 – The Simplest Gut Health Rule 01:13:36 – Adding 10 Healthy Years to Your Life ----- Episode resources: Try Troscriptions clinical-grade wellness troches and use checkout code EVERFORWARD for exclusive savings Save 39% on MitoPure longevity gummies with code EVERFORWARD at https://www.Timeline.com/everforward Get 50% off any diagnostic labs with code CHASE at https://www.JoiAndBlokes.com/chase Watch and subscribe on YouTube

Natalie shares her journey from professional bodybuilder and pipe fitter to health entrepreneur, explaining how her early awakening to medical system corruption—influenced by voices like Ron Paul and G. Edward Griffin—led her to create a functional sweetener that supports gut health rather than destroying it. The conversation covers the devastating effects of sugar on immune function, hormones, and metabolic health, with Natalie revealing shocking research about sucralose causing insulin resistance in teenagers within days. She breaks down Dulsa's unique formulation combining prebiotics, probiotics, organic monk fruit, and allulose to support natural GLP-1 production without pharmaceutical side effects. John and Natalie discuss the challenges of bringing clean products to market in a system designed to favor big food and pharma, the importance of elimination diets like carnivore and keto for therapeutic purposes, and why sustainable lifestyle changes beat quick fixes. The episode concludes with practical advice on sunlight exposure, honest self-evaluation, and building habits that restore metabolic function rather than creating dependency.

Get Dr. Vonda's latest insights on strength, bone health, longevity, and aging with power delivered straight to your inbox. Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity   I've spent years focusing on your external mobility, but I've become obsessed with the world living inside you. We used to think of the gut as just a digestion tube; now we know it's a thriving ecosystem and a metabolic pharmacy that dictates your weight, mood, and longevity. If you're doing "everything right" but still struggling with energy, the issue isn't your willpower, it's your microbiome.   In this episode, I sit down with researcher Dr. Karen Corbin to decode the gut's "black box." We're moving beyond basic digestion to explore how fiber triggers the same satiety hormones as modern weight-loss injections. Stop viewing food as mere calories and start seeing it as fuel for your internal garden. It's time to stop fighting your biology and start partnering with your bacteria to design a resilient future from the inside out. What we cover: - How your gut bacteria produce Butyrate, a "magic" compound that heals the gut and lowers inflammation. - The science of how fiber and resistant starch signal your brain to feel full and satisfied. - Why ultra-processed foods are "too easy" for our bodies to digest, leading to metabolic disaster. - Why "industrial milling" is the hidden enemy of metabolic health, turning even "healthy" grains into rapid glucose spikes by making them too easy to digest. - Why your choices at dinner determine your blood sugar response to breakfast the next morning, proving that your microbiome works on a 12-to-24-hour cycle. - Understanding that because every person's "internal garden" is unique, the same "healthy" food can cause a sugar spike in one person while keeping another perfectly stable. - Exploring the deep connection between the health of your microbiome and the energy-producing engines in your cells that drive your vitality.   About Dr Karen Corbin: Dr. Karen Corbin is a PhD researcher and keynote speaker at the forefront of precision nutrition with Advent Health. She has dedicated her career to decoding the "black box" of the microbiome, revealing how our internal pharmacy dictates metabolic health and longevity.   Connect with Dr Karen Corbin: LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/karen-corbin-phd-rd-75229111 Website: https://www.geeksthatspeak.com/ Timestamps 00:00 Intro 01:46 Meet Your Microbes: The Colon as a Metabolism 'Show' 05:58 How the Microbiome 'Talks' to You: SCFAs, Bloodstream & the Vagus Nerve 09:28 Feed the Good Guys: Fiber, Mucus Barrier & 'Leaky Gut' Explained 14:23 Aging, Exercise, Antibiotics & Hormones: What Changes in Perimenopause 18:27 Prebiotics vs Probiotics vs Synbiotics: Yogurt, Capsules & What Actually Helps 22:24 Can You Test Your Microbiome?

On this episode of Vitality Radio, we continue Formula Face Off with a deep dive into two popular microbiome gummies from Lemme—one designed for bloating and digestion, and the other positioned for daily immune support. Rather than judging hype or branding, we go straight to what matters most: the Supplement Facts panel. You'll learn why probiotic strains, CFU transparency, dosing formats, and ingredient compatibility matter far more than marketing claims. We break down probiotics vs. postbiotics, explain when spore-based strains make sense in gummies, and expose common examples of “window dressing” ingredients that look impressive but fall short of clinical relevance. We also discuss essential cofactors like vitamin K2, magnesium, and copper—and why their absence can undermine otherwise solid formulas. The goal here, as always, is to help you become a smarter, more confident supplement consumer.Products:Back on TractPrecision Probiotic Vital SporesNordic Naturals Probiotic GummiesVitality Radio POW!

What if anxiety, mood swings, and low resilience aren't starting in your mind—but in your gut?In this episode of the Choose 2 Think Inspirational Podcast, host Victoria welcomes Gabe Dough, serial entrepreneur and gut health expert from Good Bru, for a powerful conversation on the brain–gut connection and why the microbiome plays a primary role in mental, emotional, and physical health.Gabe explains why the gut is often called the “second brain,” detailing how its vast network of neurons and its communication with the brain through the vagus nerve influence mood, cognitive function, stress response, and overall nervous system health. Together, Victoria and Gabe unpack how the microbiome helps produce key neurotransmitters like serotonin, regulates inflammation, and impacts digestion, immunity, and hormone balance.Throughout the episode, Gabe shares practical insights on how everyday lifestyle choices—especially diet, fiber intake, exercise, and stress—shape the health of the gut microbiome. He also clarifies the difference between helpful and harmful fibers, explains the role of prebiotics and probiotics, and highlights why many people experience worsened symptoms when gut health is overlooked.The conversation concludes with five practical actions listeners can take to begin supporting their gut health immediately, reinforcing a holistic, whole-body approach to wellness. This episode is a clear reminder that when we care for the gut, we support the brain—and when we support the brain, we strengthen the entire body.The gut functions as a “second brain,” influencing mood, cognition, and emotional regulationSerotonin is primarily produced in the gut and plays a major role in mental well-beingGut dysbiosis can increase inflammation, anxiety, and stress sensitivityLifestyle choices—diet, fiber, exercise, and stress—directly affect the microbiomeSupporting gut health is essential for holistic mental and physical wellness00:00 Introduction to the Brain–Gut Connection15:04 How Gut Health Impacts Mental Health20:45 Dysbiosis and Its Consequences26:22 Gut Health and Chronic Disease31:03 Holistic Health: The Body–Mind Connection42:35 Prebiotics vs. Probiotics Explained49:22 Introducing GoodBru and Gut Support54:15 OutroVisit www.goodbru.com and use the promo code CHOOSE2THINK for 10% off your first order!

In this episode of The Mind–Gut Conversation, Dr. Emeran Mayer sits down with Tim Spector, MD, to discuss the implications of a landmark gut microbiome study involving more than 34,000 participants — one of the largest and most comprehensive efforts to date to understand what a “healthy” gut microbiome actually looks like.Drawing from the study's novel design and findings, they explore why defining gut health is far more complex than identifying a short list of “good” or “bad” microbes. The conversation unpacks what large-scale microbiome data can, and cannot tell us about health, disease prevention, and the growing interest in microbiome testing as a tool for personalized nutrition and healthcare.Together, they examine the deep connections between diet and the microbiome, highlighting why dietary patterns, particularly fiber- and prebiotic-rich foods, may play a more meaningful role than many commonly marketed probiotic products. They also discuss the challenges of translating microbiome research into actionable guidance for consumers and clinicians, and why education and context are essential as microbiome testing becomes more widely available.This wide-ranging discussion blends cutting-edge microbiome science with practical insight, offering a grounded perspective on where the field is headed and how emerging research may eventually shape everyday health decisions.Topics discussed include:• What a large-scale microbiome study reveals about gut health• Why defining a “healthy” microbiome is more complex than expected• The limitations of labeling microbes as simply good or bad• The role of diet, fiber, and prebiotics in shaping the microbiome• The promises and pitfalls of microbiome testing• How microbiome research may influence future healthcare practicesThis is a practical, evidence-based discussion for anyone interested in gut health, whether navigating dietary choices personally, exploring microbiome testing, or working in a clinical or research setting.Please leave any comments or feedback on the episode — we'd love to hear your thoughts.-------------------------------Chapters:00:00 Introduction02:05 The Landmark Study Overview05:29 Defining Healthy Gut Microbiomes10:02 The Good vs. Bad Microbes13:59 Implications for Diet and Health18:37 The Role of Prebiotics and Probiotics23:27 Future Directions in Microbiome Research27:49 Challenges in Proving Causality31:51 The Future of Gut Health Testing36:36 Future Outlook in Traditional Medicine40:10 Microbiome Testing in Clinical Practice43:20 Regulation, Wellness, and Medical Use46:10 Personalizing Diet Through the Microbiome48:50 Final Reflections

We also explore the latest research on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, and uncover the sources of the sun's mysterious gamma rays.Life's Building Blocks on TitanA groundbreaking study reveals that Titan, Saturn's largest moon, exhibits unexpected chemical interactions at extremely low temperatures. Researchers found that hydrogen cyanide can mix with nonpolar substances like methane and ethane, challenging traditional chemistry principles. This discovery could provide insights into the prebiotic chemistry that may have preceded life on Earth, as Titan's environment mirrors that of early Earth.Europa's Quiet OceansIn a surprising turn, new calculations suggest that the vast subsurface ocean beneath Europa's icy crust may be lifeless. This research indicates that Europa lacks the geological activity, such as hydrothermal vents, necessary to sustain life. Lead author Paul Brian discusses how the moon's stable orbit around Jupiter limits the tidal forces that could drive geological processes, casting doubt on the moon's potential as a habitat for life.The Source of Solar Gamma RaysAstronomers have identified the origin of intense gamma radiation emitted during solar flares, linking it to high-energy electrons colliding with plasma in the solar corona. This finding, derived from observations of a significant solar flare in 2017, enhances our understanding of solar flare physics and could improve space weather forecasting.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesJournal of the Proceedings of the National Academy of SciencesNature CommunicationsNature AstronomyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) Scientists studying Saturn's moon Titan have discovered that normally incompatible substances can mix(00:05:19) NASA will launch the Dragonfly mission to Titan in 2028(00:13:36) NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft will study icy moon Europa(00:18:11) Astronomers have discovered that gamma rays generated by solar flares are caused by electrons(00:21:58) Most people who take diabetes drug Mounjaro gain weight back after stopping

On today's ID the Future, host Casey Luskin continues a deep dive into the mounting hurdles facing origin of life (OOL) research with prebiotic synthesis expert Dr. Edward Peltzer. Peltzer, a seasoned ocean chemist and researcher, breaks down the critical flaws in the RNA world hypothesis, revealing that many successful lab experiments actually rely on investigator interference—intelligently designed interventions that researchers must make in experiments in order to yield results. But that's not how the prebiotic atmosphere would have worked, notes Peltzer: "Unless you've got graduate students and post-docs working on the early Earth to set up these conditions that were used in the experiments, it's not gonna happen." Peltzer also discusses how the goalposts of origin-of-life theory keep moving as our understanding of cellular complexity expands. And he shares a personal story of censorship as the discussion ends by exploring the risks faced by scientists who question the standard evolutionary paradigm. This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation. Look for Part 1 in a separate episode. Source

New Year's Eve always comes with that familiar urge to clean the slate, toss out what didn't hold up, and keep what actually earned its place. That's basically the spirit of our latest “What's New in Science” episode with Sabine Hossenfelder.We began with the season's favorite shiny object: wormholes. The headlines have been everywhere, but we talked through why most of these stories quietly slide from “a speculative tool in a model” to “a virtual phenomenon that might be useful in calculations.” Traversable wormholes of course still run straight into hard constraints like negative energy and the time machine problem.From there we moved to something much more grounded: CERN. ATLAS has now observed the Higgs decaying into muon pairs, which is exactly the kind of precise confirmation you want for the Standard Model, and while it is yet another remarkable confirmation of how well the fundamental feature of the Standard Model works, it once again sharpens the contrast with the inexplicable nature of the only feature that doesn't seem to fit: neutrino masses. And it leaves us hanging about where to look next.We next spent time on what the future might look like for big particle collider projects and what it says about the field's priorities, including the signal sent by China's latest five-year plan, which no longer features a massive circular collider proposal. We touched on a smaller CERN result as well, and used it to reflect on a broader point: some of the most stubborn, interesting physics lives in regimes that are messy rather than glamorous.Then we took a quick detour into a quantum gravity-adjacent proposal about whether the way we average quantities in general relativity could matter for quantum corrections, and finally landed on a genuinely satisfying closer: OSIRIS-REx's Bennu samples. Finding ribose alongside other prebiotic building blocks makes it harder to dismiss the idea that the chemistry of life might be widespread, and not a once-only cosmic fluke.I hope you enjoy the episode, and I hope you're welcoming the new year surrounded by friends and family.

Inulin is a naturally occurring, non-digestible fiber stored in many plants. It acts as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial gut bacteria that influence how the body handles sugar, fat, and inflammation A 2025 animal study found that inulin helped reverse fatty liver disease by prompting small-intestinal microbes to clear fructose and redirect liver metabolism toward the production of the antioxidant glutathione Inulin supports insulin sensitivity, lowers triglycerides, and improves liver markers. However, high doses, especially from supplements, can cause bloating Onions, garlic, asparagus, chicory, and Jerusalem artichoke are among the richest natural sources of inulin Restoring liver health isn't about quick fixes. Adopt consistent habits, such as regular movement, mindful eating, restorative sleep, and a diet centered on fiber-rich foods

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by examining how market competition is actually working in the weight loss drug sector. Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy compete against Eli Lilly's Monjaro and ZepBound, with prices dropping nearly 50% as companies launch direct-to-consumer websites. The main barriers remain needles and refrigeration, driving development of oral versions. Novo's Wegovy pill awaits FDA approval for early 2026 launch at $150 monthly. Next-generation drugs show remarkable results: Eli's retatrutide causes 24% weight loss in 48 weeks, while Novo's Cagrisema combines semaglutide with amylin to reduce muscle loss. Pfizer paid $10 billion for Metsera's once-monthly drug despite significant side effects. A quick fiber tip suggests adding plain psyllium to morning coffee for cardiovascular and microbiome benefits. Start with half a teaspoon and work up to two teaspoons (10 grams) over several weeks to avoid gas. The prebiotic fiber improves glucose tolerance and may reduce cancer risk. UC San Diego scientists discovered why cancers mutate so rapidly despite being eukaryotic cells with protected chromosomes. The answer is chromothripsis, a catastrophic event where the enzyme N4BP2 literally explodes chromosomes into fragments. These reassemble incorrectly, generating dozens to hundreds of mutations simultaneously and creating circular DNA fragments carrying cancer-promoting genes. One in four cancers show evidence of this mechanism, with all osteosarcomas and many brain cancers displaying it. This explains why the most aggressive cancers resist treatment. Research from 2013 shows any glucocorticoid use significantly increases venous thromboembolism risk, with threefold increases during the first month of use. The risk applies to new and recurrent clots, affecting both oral and inhaled steroids, though IV poses highest risk and topical the lowest. Joint injections fall somewhere between inhaled and oral. Anyone with prior blood clots should avoid steroids except for life-threatening situations like severe asthma attacks requiring ventilation. A meta-analysis of 20 randomized controlled trials shows creatine supplementation helps older adults (48-84) maintain muscle mass when combined with weight training two to three times weekly. The supplement provides no benefit without exercise. Recommended dosing starts at 2 grams and works up to 5 grams daily. Vegans benefit most since they consume little meat or fish. Important caveat: creatine throws off standard kidney function tests (creatinine), so users should request cystatin C testing instead for accurate renal health assessment. A new JAMA study suggesting risk-based mammogram screening is fatally flawed. First, researchers offered chemopreventative drugs like tamoxifen only to the high-risk group, contaminating the study design. Second, the demographics skewed heavily toward white college-educated women, missing the reality that Black women face twice the risk of aggressive breast cancer with 40% higher mortality. Third, wild-type humans failed to follow instructions—low-risk women continued getting annual mammograms anyway while high-risk women skipped recommended extra screenings. The conclusion of "non-inferior" outcomes is meaningless given poor adherence. Stick with annual mammograms, and consider alternating with MRIs for high-risk women. The EAT-Lancet report condemns red meat based purely on observational data showing correlations with heart disease, cancer, and mortality. But people who eat lots of red meat differ dramatically from low consumers: they weigh more, smoke more, exercise less, and eat less fiber. Studies can't control for sleep quality, depression, or screen time. Notably, heavy meat eaters also die more in accidents, suggesting a risk-taking lifestyle phenotype. The inflammatory marker TMAO is higher in meat eaters, but starch is also pro-inflammatory. Eating red meat instead of instant ramen might improve health. A balanced diet with limited amounts beats epidemiology-based blanket statements. Dr. Dawn grades Dr. Oz's performance as CMS administrator. Starting at minus one for zero relevant experience, he earns plus two for promoting diet, exercise, and gut health on his show. He studied intensively after nomination, calling all four previous CMS directors repeatedly and surrounding himself with experienced staff (plus one). He finalized Medicare rules favoring prevention over surgery and earned bipartisan praise as "a real scientist, not radical" (plus one). He divested healthcare holdings but kept some blind trust interests (minus 0.5). He's developing a CMS app and partnering with Google on a digital health ecosystem (plus one), but supports ending ACA subsidies that will raise premiums for millions (minus one). He correctly promoted COVID vaccines and contradicted Trump's Tylenol-autism claims (plus one). Final score: 3.5 out of 5 possible points, the only positive score for any Trump health administrator.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes functional medicine dietitian and gut-health expert Lisa Smith for a deep dive into one of the most overlooked systems influencing hormone balance: the estrobolome. If you've never heard that word before, you're not alone — but by the end of this conversation you'll understand why the estrobolome may be the missing link in stubborn hormone symptoms, estrogen dominance, thyroid sluggishness, mood changes, and even men's testosterone challenges. Jared and Lisa break down how gut bacteria influence estrogen detoxification, what beta-glucuronidase is actually doing behind the scenes, why bile flow matters (especially if you don't have a gallbladder), and how fiber, cruciferous vegetables, and targeted nutrients can support healthy hormone metabolism. This is a practical, empowering discussion designed to help you understand root causes rather than chase symptoms. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid issues, mood swings, stubborn weight, or low energy, this episode brings science down to earth with simple, realistic starting points for rebuilding gut balance and restoring hormonal resiliency — naturally and safely.Products:Precision ProbioticLiverVitality EndoCleanseAdditional Information:Pretty Well PodcastInstagramLisa Smith WellnessVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.
