SIBO breath testing has been the subject of some pushback in the wider medical community. Today’s episode discusses some of the controversy around the effectiveness of breath testing, when it’s worth doing, how to make sure your results are accurate, and what other tests might be better at getting to the bottom of your gut issues. Joining me is Dr. Patrick Fratellone, a functional cardiologist and herbalist who used to practice with the late Dr. Robert C. Atkins. He takes us through how he does his gut detective work as a functional medicine doctor, including what comprehensive tests on genetics, vitamin levels and intestinal permeability can tell you about your bigger gut picture.

Prior to opening his own practice, for five years, Dr. Pescatore was the Associate Medical Director of The Atkins Center for Complementary Medicine working directly with Dr. Robert C. Atkins. What we have learned over the decades from Dr. Atkins and Dr. Pescatore is that fats in the diet are not the cause of obesity. We have learned about the importance of the types of fats in the diet and that some fats are better than others. We learned that refined carbs and too many carbs is a major factor in the obesity epidemic. Dr. Pescatore's newest book The A-LIST Diet (2017) is designed to go beyond Atkins and Paleo diets. Dr. Pescatore improves on these popular diets by boosting protein, protein rotation, reducing inflammation and alkalizing the body. Dr. Pescatore takes a fresh look at everyday choices and helps you customize his strategies for your unique needs. The post 299 – The A-List Diet – Look and Feel Younger appeared first on Health Quest Podcast.

Jimmy Moore is a best-selling author, host of the longest running health podcast on the internet, and a living example of the benefits of a low-carb diet. He was 410 lbs. 12 years ago and it wasn’t until his own mother in law gave him a Dr. Atkins’ New Diet Revolution that made him rethink his life and his perspective on what “healthy eating” really is. He would then lose a total of 180 lbs. a year later and shrink his waist by 20 inches and has since lived a low-carb lifestyle. Today we’re going to talk about the topic of fasting especially intermittent fasting, its benefits, and a few tips on how to not just start with fasting but also succeed in it. “If you have fears about this, don't fear it. Just try it. There's no harm, you're not going to die." Jimmy Moore In this episode, you’ll learn: Jimmy became passionate about fasting because of the paleo community and its many experts. Thomas Seyfried said If you want to prevent cancer, go on a one week fast once a year. People on a ketogenic or low-carb diet will have an easier time with intermittent fasting. Intermittent fasting won’t work on sugar burners aka people who regularly eat large amounts of carbs. It’s best to eliminate the idea of “snacks” in between meals to start. Compensate by eating enough during actual meal times. Some of the benefits of intermittent fasting include cancer prevention, reduces the onset of certain illnesses, lowers insulin levels, and improves mood. The ketogenic diet and fasting complement each other when it comes to resetting your body’s systems and optimizing its functions. Some of the common mistakes of people who start with intermittent fasting are consumption of artificial sweeteners thru “diet” beverages, people take it easy during fasting instead of living their normal lives, and some try to fast before the holidays which causes them to “flip out” and crash. Fasting revs up your metabolism by 10%. It also won’t make you lose muscle if you have fat, even as low as 8% body fat is enough to be used as fuel. Key Takeaways: Don't fast before the holidays or any special occasion because you'll succumb to temptation, fail at your fast, and inevitably not enjoy life. The goal of fasting is to let you add more to life, not take life away from you.

Changing Minds Online is excited to announce the fourth episode of our brand new series, "Unlock Your Code" co-hosted with networking marketing millionaire, best selling author and international speaker and coach Lisa De Mayo! Personalized medicine is quickly becoming mainstream as many of us are questioning why our bodies are not operating at optimal levels. DNA and body chemistry can reveal so much and give you the information you need to make necessary changes. The featured doctor, Dr. John Salerno is a world-renowned physician, with 15 years of clinical experience. He has served as a preceptor at Yale Medical School and worked closely with Dr Robert C. Atkins. HIs professional experience in Europe, South America, Japan and the U.S. puts him at the forefront of Integrative and Preventative Medicine. Dr. Salerno is the founder of The Salerno Center for Complementary Medicine in New York City, as well as the co-founder of anti-aging clinics in Tokyo, and the chief medical officer behind RenuLife anti-aging clinic in Sao Paulo, Brazil.  At the Salerno Center, we care about what forms of hormones we give our patients. Dr. Salerno stresses the importance of using only the finest treatments and therapies at his practice. More and more men and woman are hearing about a more natural hormone replacement called bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy allows patients to regain the happiness of living a hormonally balanced lifestyle. While bio-identical hormone replacement therapy is natural, it should still be administered by a trained doctor.

AIR DATE: February 2, 2012 at 7PM ETFEATURED EXPERT: FEATURED TOPIC: “How To Improve Cardio-Metabolic Health” Episode 4 of “Jimmy Moore Presents: Ask The Low-Carb Experts” features Dr. Fred Pescatore, M.D. who is the author of several nutritional health books, including the New York Times bestselling book  among many others. He is a traditionally trained physician who practices nutritional medicine and is internationally recognized as a health, nutrition and weight loss expert. You may have seen him as an expert nutrition contributor on The Rachael Ray Show and he is currently on the editorial board of US weekly magazine as well as a regular contributor to In Touch, First for Women and Women’s World magazines. Dr. Pescatore also has a masters degree in public health and is deeply involved in the philanthropic community devoting his time working in hospitals in Tanzania, while also helping to support organizations in the United States. Prior to opening his own medical practice, he was the Associate Medical Director of The Atkins Center for Complementary Medicine working closely with the late great Dr. Robert C. Atkins for five years. His extensive knowledge of the role nutrition play in improving both metabolic and cardiovascular health make him an excellent expert to call upon to address this week’s issue. MEET JIMMY MOORE AT  IN AUSTIN, TX ON MARCH 14-17, 2012: Here are some of the questions Dr. Pescatore addressed in Episode 4: BILL ASKS:We know that chia and flax seeds are okay for low-carbers because they do not raise blood sugar. But are there any other metabolic disadvantages to consuming them? I eat 2 Tbs chia seed gel a day with stevia, cocoa powder and blueberries and I wonder if I am harming myself metabolically. KATHY ASKS:Why do you think congestive heart failure is such a common admitting diagnosis these days? Is it the increased use of statins and perhaps CoQ10 deficiency? Or is it related in some way to the increases in chronic respiratory disease like COPD? Are there different reasons in different countries? TOM ASKS:I am 34 years old and I have been eating processed foods and junk foods my whole life. I am sure I have a fair amount of insulin resistance going on, as well as some significant muscle atrophy. I am wondering, one, if my heart could have atrophied as well? Also, now that I am 100% Paleo, how can I work on reversing the atrophies and two, what steps should I take to start rebuilding my body now that I am keeping my carb intake minimal? I am concerned about how slow I should start with exercise until I can be certain my heart is strong enough and my insulin sensitivity is adequate to start building muscle. MARYANN ASKS:I would appreciate it if you could have Dr. Pescatore talk about atrial fibrillation. It is something I have occasionally but I never hear it discussed. Can low-carb or Paleo eating help it? JAMIE ASKS:Dr. Pescatore, your books span weight loss for adults as well as asthma and weight loss for kids. Regarding the relationship between what we eat, our metabolism and inflammation, is there an eating style that is less inflammatory for most people, less likely to create heart problems for adults and possible reduce asthma suffering for children? PETER ASKS:What does Dr. Pescatore think that about someone with hypertension watching their dietary salt intake and how can people tweak their diet to help get their blood pressure numbers down? I’ve had premature ventricular contractions for many years. They seem to be more frequent now that I am 40 years old. Is this a cause for concern and can PVCs be treated through diet and lifestyle changes? FRAN ASKS:It seems that discussions of heart issues are actually only about cardiovascular factors and rhythm disturbance is ignored. The same advice to take statins and eat low-fat is given in both cases. A few weeks ago while we were attending a church service my husband collapsed then went into fibrillation, no pulse and was turning blue. Fortunately by this time an ER nurses in the congregation was with us and successfully performed CPR and restarted his heart immediately. I have to think that if he had followed the constant advice of his cardiologists to take statins and eat low fat his survival would have been questionable. He has no blockages just rhythm dysfunction which we have known about for years and which has claimed most of the males in his family. We are feeling very fortunate that we were where we were when this struck and with his pacemaker/defibrillator hope to spend many more years together. Why do they give the same wrong advice for such different etiologies? RHODA ASKS:How do you lower CRP levels with the use of food, supplements and exercise? JOAN ASKS:I was just on Dr. William Davis’ blog and noticed he is recommending the use of therapeutic niacin (1-2,000). It made me re-think stopping the niacin. Does Dr. Pescatore agree with this for people on low-carb? SUSAN ASKS:Will you please comment on the factors you look at to assess whether someone is at risk for coronary artery disease. It seems the physicians on the front lines of health, with their prescription pads close at hand, are still focused solely on “the numbers” – total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and Trig. A few clicks of my mouse and a dose of Jimmy Moore has told me there might be a bit more to the story. My doctor would like me to come in for a “discussion” on my alarming numbers. I am a short/small person – 102 pounds. I exercise daily and have been low carb now for several months. I was not trying to lose weight (but did shave a few pounds anyway) but rather I wish to prevent the diabetes, obesity and heart disease that is a reality for many on both sides of my family. fasting glucose is 85Total Cholesterol is 269LDL 182 – calculatedHDL 76Trig. 53 The doctor is not in the habit of testing for LDL particle size and only agreed after my insistence and after seeing my shocking LDL number. The doctor did not seem to appreciate the value of performing that test. I have read otherwise — that the particle size is enormously critical. What do you look at when determining heart health/risk and what can you suggest a person say to their doctor?
