Podcasts about super gut a four week plan

Over the past years, the human microbiome has been dramatically altered. Chemicals in our environment, over exposure to antibiotics, and industrialized food, have created changes that pose silent dangers for health. According to Dr. William Davis, we desperately need to reintroduce our bodies to the microbial species that once lived in our ancestors, while pushing back the army of interlopers that have taken their place. Dr. Davis talks about how we can reprogram our microbiome to improve our health. Dr Davis is a cardiologist and author of the number one New York Times bestseller, Wheat Belly., and, Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight.

On this episode of the Healthy, Wealthy, and Smart Podcast, Dr. Karen Litzy interviews Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and bestselling author, about the importance of muscle in successful weight loss. Dr. Davis shares insights from recent clinical trials on losing fat while preserving muscle.

In this engaging episode of my "Six Weeks of Fitness" podcast, I interview Dr. William Davis, a renowned cardiologist and bestselling author of the Wheat Belly series of books, Undoctored, and most recently Super Gut: A Four Week Plan to Reprogram your Microbiome, Restore Health and Lose Weight. During the interview, Dr. Davis will provide some valuable insights and practical tips to enhance our well-being through natural and informed choices. Here's a summary of the key points discussed during our interview: Microbiome's Impact on Health: Dr. Davis elaborates on the critical role of the gastrointestinal microbiome in overall health. He explains how modern lifestyle factors like antibiotics, food additives, and processed foods have negatively affected our gut health, leading to a range of health issues including obesity, heart disease, and mental health problems. Restoring Gut Health: Dr. Davis emphasizes the importance of restoring the microbiome to improve health. He likens the process to tending a garden, where removing harmful elements, introducing beneficial microbes through fermented foods, and providing the right nutrients can lead to a healthier microbiome. Weight Loss and Muscle Preservation: The conversation touches on the misconceptions and dangers of popular weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, highlighting the importance of preserving muscle mass for overall health. Dr. Davis argues that muscle is crucial not just for physical strength but also for metabolic health. Practical Health Strategies: In this segment of the interview, Dr. Davis shares actionable advice on improving gut health and overall wellness. This includes consuming fermented foods, focusing on a diet rich in unprocessed foods, and considering specific supplements like collagen and probiotics to address deficiencies in the modern diet. Empowerment through Knowledge: In this segment of the interview, we both spoke about the significance of empowering individuals with knowledge about their health. We stressed the need for people to understand the underlying factors affecting their health rather than relying solely on medications or quick fixes. Holistic Approach to Health: The interview underscores a holistic approach to health, where addressing the root causes of health issues through diet, lifestyle changes, and understanding the body's needs leads to more sustainable and impactful health outcomes. Access to Dr. Davis's Work: I strongly recommend getting a copy of Dr. Davis's latest book, "Super Gut," and his blog for more in-depth information and resources on improving health through gut health restoration and other natural approaches.

In this episode of Defiant Health, let's talk about why cutting calories in your diet to lose weight is a really bad idea, a practice that yields substantial health problems and even reduces, even eliminates, your ability to lose weight in the future. All the forms that this can take—-reduced portion size, using smaller plates or bowls, pushing the plate away, even pharmaceuticals and bariatric procedures, i.e., all forms of reducing calorie intake, result in significant health problems. It can result in long-term increased risk for frailty, osteoporosis, falls and fractures, and impairs your ability to lose weight again in future, not to mention people who cut calories almost always regain the weight they initially lost. So let's discuss why cutting calories is not just an ineffective strategy for weight loss, but can actually be dangerous, and how you can lose weight, if that is among your goals, but not experience any of these adverse health problems.___________________________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars here.

Have you ever tried out a diet just because it was trendy?In this episode, we take a deep dive into what these diets actually do to the microbiomes inside our body. Kashif is joined by Cardiologist and #1 New York Times Best-Seller, Dr. William Davis. Dr. William is known for his book series called Wheat Belly, and has authored books such as Undoctored, and most recently, Super Gut.Kashif and William discuss how our genetics dictate what's most effective for us when it comes to food consumption. From a personal anecdote and through various studies, William reveals that though vegetarianism works for certain people, the effect is quite opposite for him. With that, they discuss finding what works for you, and the possible ways to make up microbes that will help the body battle toxins.Furthermore, there are truths about food that have been declared healthy for a period of time now yet are actually harmful. Take grain for example, a lot of people incorporate wheat and different types of grain which were actually modified so that there are increased yield yet were never questioned if they were still safe for human consumption as it produces toxins and binding materials that make you unable to absorb minerals that are needed by the body.Here are more points of discussion that were brought up in the episode:How certain truths about food are not common knowledgeThe different elements that we are exposed to that affect our healthThe effects of pest-resistant properties added into crops that we consumeThe state of modern soil and modern grain in relation to our healthThe gastrointestinal microbiomeSIBO - Small Intestinal Biome OvergrowthBacteriocins effective against fecal microbesHow to produce helpful microbes at homeHow lactobacillus reuteri affects social phenomenaOxytocin and physical healthSugar and other food's metabolic consequencesYou may learn more from William Davis through the following outlets:His website at drdavisinfinitehealth.comPurchasing his book, "Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight" on Amazon.____________________________________________________________________Our friends at BiOptimizers have a really powerful enzyme supplement that helps you digest your food better so you can get more out of it.It's called Masszymes.Improve your nutrient absorption and systemic enzymes today by going to bioptimizers.com!

In this episode of Defiant Health, I ask the question: Is your skin aging faster than it should? If you are engaging in conventional ideas about diet, it probably is. But there are indeed strategies you can adopt that slow or even reverse signs of skin aging.Those of you who are concerned about skin health and appearance likely engage in applying products externally, products such as retinol or hyaluronic acid serums for smoother, moister skin. But wouldn't it be better to view skin as the outward reflection of internal health? Because it is. If you are inflamed, it will show on the skin. If you have liver or kidney problems, it will show on the skin. Wouldn't it therefore be better to address internal health first? Or do both: obtain healthier skin that reflects better internal health complemented by your topical efforts. Because, after all, applying products topically does not make you or your skin healthier; it just generates an outward change in appearance.Many of you following my conversations are making yogurt (not really yogurt, of course, nothing like the products sold in stores) making yogurt with Lactobacillus reuteri, a microbe lost by nearly all modern people. Many of you have reported wonderful skin effects, as well as other health benefits such as increased strength, deeper sleep, increased libido, increased sense of well-being. Many report increased skin moisture sufficient to reduce or do away with moisturizing creams, and reduction of fine wrinkles. So this got me thinking about the power of replacing other factors lacking or absent from modern life that might influence skin health and appearance. So, in this episode of Defiant Health, let's talk about other factors lacking in modern life that you can replace for improved skin health. This was also my motivation for creating the Gut to Glow product that I personally formulated that I will tell you more about. Dr. Davis is a co-founder and principal in Realize Therapeutics Corp. that sells the Gut to Glow product. L reuteri yogurt recipe:https://drdavisinfinitehealth.com/201...The L reuteri yogurt recipe and many other recipes that you can use to replace lost microbes can be found in my new book, Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight available through Amazon and other book retailers:https://www.amazon.com/Super-Gut-Four...

You have likely observed that humans, especially overweight humans, come in a variety of shapes and sizes. We all know that excess body fat is not a good thing for health, nor for self esteem. But where fat is distributed on the body plays a big role in whether excess fat increases risk for conditions such as type 2 diabetes, coronary disease, stroke, cancer, cognitive decline, dementia, and premature death—or whether it is only a cosmetic issue and a challenge to weight-bearing joints but not for all the common chronic conditions mentioned. Doctors often rely on a measure called the body-mass index, or BMI. BMI is obtained through a simple calculation (or referring to a table that lists BMIs) of height divided by weight. A BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 is considered normal, overweight is 25 to 29.9, over 30 is obese. But BMI suffers from a fundamental flaw: It assumes that body fat is distributed uniformly throughout the body which, of course, it is not. They also rely on total weight which also does not necessarily give you any real health insights. So let's talk about how you can do better than the doctor to make determinations about whether the fat on your body is interfering with your health and longevity or whether it is not.________________________________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let's talk about this destructive thing in the human diet called wheat. Those of you familiar with my Wheat Belly books may know a lot of this already and this will just serve as a reminder to help you stay on course and preserve the health and slenderness you achieved. I'm always impressed that, because TV ads, misinformed dietitians, and other dietary conversations all urge you to consume grains, it's easy to become complacent, often forgetting how your health improved by banishing all wheat and grains. If this is new to you, be prepared to be surprised, even angered, by coming to understand what a toxic, chronic poison modern wheat is, this thing created by crude genetic manipulations, and its destructive effects on your health. In the early days of my Wheat Belly message, some people dismissed it as nothing more than promoting a gluten-free diet, or another version of a low-carb diet. But I believe that, once you hear the full arguments based on scientific evidence, you will come to understand the magnitude of mistake made when humans first began to incorporate the seeds of grasses—that's what wheat is—-into the human diet and the enormous impact it has on health, despite being advised by virtually all agencies in the business of offering dietary advice to include it in every meal, every day.__________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

Lisa is joined by William Davis, MD. Dr. William Davis is a cardiologist and New York Times #1 bestselling author of the Wheat Belly book series. He is Medical Director and founder of the Undoctored program including the Undoctored Inner Circle. He is Chief Medical Officer and co-founder of Realize Therapeutics Corp. that is developing innovative solutions for the disrupted human microbiome and author of the book Super Gut.Lisa and Dr. Davis discuss his latest book, "Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight."Book description: The best-selling author of the Wheat Belly books brings his next big, game changing idea — the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO — to the mainstream.Wheat Belly was a breakthrough, informing listeners that the wheat and grains we consume today are not the same wheat and grains of our ancestors and were making us overweight and sick. In Super Gut, Dr. Davis takes his research and findings a step further and shows that because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are is now missing so many of the good bacteria required to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over health, weight, mood, even behavior.The ancient bacteria that keep our gut in alignment and our digestion easy have been dying off, replaced by harmful microbes that don't serve to keep us physically healthy and mentally fit. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis has connected the dots between gut health and modern ailments and complaints. There are entire species of microbes that have disappeared, creating health issues that were uncommon 100, or even 50, years ago. A major consequence is SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.Super Gut shows listeners how to eliminate bad bacteria and bring back the missing “good” bacteria with a four-week plan to reprogram your microbiome based on research and techniques that not only get to the root of many diseases but improve levels of oxytocin (the bonding/happy hormone), brain health, and promote anti-aging, weight loss, mental clarity, and more restful sleep. Super Gut explains the science clearly and includes more than forty recipes, a diet plan, and resources so you can pinpoint your gut issues, correct them, and maintain your long-term health and well-being.

In this episode of Defiant Health, let's discuss how the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans got a lot of things wrong. Of course, I have previously discussed on many occasions the hazards of a diet reduced in fat and rich in “healthy whole grains,” a style of eating that increases the likelihood of weight gain, fatty liver, type 2 diabetes, even increases cardiovascular risk, largely due to amylopectin A carbohydrate of wheat and grains, as well as gliadin protein-derived opioid peptides that are appetite stimulants. This was the focus of my Wheat Belly series of books. But the dietary guidelines that encouraged Americans to reduce fat intake also led to some inadvertent blunders that pose real health consequences. Perhaps we would never have learned about these issues if we had not made the national mistake of reducing fat. So let's talk about these inadvertent blunders and what you can do to compensate for them.Supplements mentioned:Collagen hydrolysates--bovine, porcine, chicken, marineHyaluronic acidPhosphatidylserineOmega-3 fatty acids, EPA + DHAFacto-fermented foods_____________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

In this episode of Defiant Health, let's clear up some misconceptions about the common problem of constipation, an issue that plagues around 10-20% of people at any one time. While the official definition of constipation is having 3 or fewer bowel movements per week, I would say that the official definition is way off. 3 or fewer bowel movements per week is an awful standard, one that is likely to impact health in other ways, as well as being uncomfortable.  And the standard remedies for constipation have problems, real problems. So let's cut through the nonsense and talk about how and why constipation develops and what you can do about it without resorting to absurd and harmful conventional solutions. AIRE device--The AIRE 2 device is the one that measures methane; more info here. ______________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

In this episode of Defiant Health, let's talk about some new insights into a very serious issue that afflicts many females: repeated urinary tract infections, or UTIs. This can happen to a female at any age, but becomes an especially frequent problem as women get older. Of course, the conventional “solution” is to prescribe course after course of antibiotics that disrupt the entire body's microbiome and not uncommonly leads to dysbiosis in the colon and other organs, SIBO, vaginal candida infections and other problems. A number of new observations have emerged that are completely changing the understanding of this common problem. One new and exciting insight is that the urinary system has its own unique microbiome, i.e., a collection of microbes that normally colonize the bladder and other portions of the urinary system, despite having been regarded as sterile for many years. It is disruption of this urinary microbiome that is a major contributor to repeated UTIs. It's also become clear that the vaginal microbiome is a major determinant of urinary health. Let's talk about why this happens and what steps you can take to stack the odds in favor of putting a stop to this annoying and health-impairing issue.  ________________________________________________________________________________Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

For years, unpleasant symptoms such as abdominal pain, headache, joint pain, and skin rashes experienced with consumption of wheat and grains were dismissed as just being in our imagination, the product of a neurotic mind. If celiac disease was not diagnosed, then these sorts of abnormal symptoms were dismissed as inconsequential. Recent evidence tells us that this absolutely not true and that the awkwardly named non-celiac gluten sensitivity is a real disease with very real, sometimes severe, health implications. Some of these abnormal responses can be measured. And, of course, it is a condition that is addressed with elimination of all wheat and grains in the diet.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

I first became familiar with the brilliant Dr. William Davis and his impressive body of work when I interviewed him for an episode about heart attacks way back in 2009. Later, he joined me for a podcast about his book Wheat Belly, in which we discussed why you're not eating the same kind of wheat your ancestors ate, whether wheat bread is really better than white bread, if wheat is ever OK to eat and if so, when, and good substitutes and alternatives for wheat. Today, Dr. William Davis is back to discuss his new book Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight. In Super Gut, Dr. Davis takes his research and findings a step further and shows that because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are is now missing so many of the good bacteria required to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over health, weight, mood, even behavior. The ancient bacteria that keep our gut in alignment and our digestion easy have been dying off, replaced by harmful microbes that don't serve to keep us physically healthy and mentally fit. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis has connected the dots between gut health and modern ailments and complaints. There are entire species of microbes that have disappeared, creating health issues that were uncommon one hundred, or even fifty, years ago. A major consequence is SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions. Super Gut shows how to eliminate bad bacteria and bring back the missing “good” bacteria with a four-week plan to reprogram your microbiome based on research and techniques that not only get to the root of many diseases but improve levels of oxytocin (the bonding/happy hormone), brain health, and promote anti-aging, weight loss, mental clarity, and more restful sleep. Super Gut explains the science clearly and includes more than forty recipes, a diet plan, and resources so you can pinpoint your gut issues, correct them, and maintain your long-term health and well-being. Dr. Davis provides solutions to health problems by addressing the microbiome, massively disrupted in modern people. He shows readers in his Super Gut book, for instance, how to restore important lost microbes lost such as Lactobacillus reuteri, restored by using a unique method of yogurt fermentation that smooths skin and reduces wrinkles, restores youthful muscle and strength, deepens sleep, reduces appetite and provides many other youth-preserving and anti-aging effects. In Super Gut, he provides additional do-it-yourself-at-home strategies for benefits such as improved mood, improved athletic performance, better sleep, heightened immunity, and improved body composition. Dr. William Davis is also responsible for exposing the incredible nutritional blunder made by "official" health agencies: Eat more "healthy whole grains." The wheat of today is different from the wheat of 1960, thanks to extensive genetics manipulations introduced to increase yield-per-acre. Eliminating wheat yields results beyond everyone's expectations: substantial weight loss, correction of cholesterol abnormalities, relief from inflammatory diseases like arthritis, better mood, reduced blood sugar with many type 2 diabetics being freed of insulin and other drugs, all articulated through his Wheat Belly series of books. He is also a champion of individual self-directed health, as discussed in his Undoctoredbook.

Many people have been advised by their doctors or have decided on their own that adverse reactions to dairy products are due to an inability to digest lactose, the primary sugar in dairy products. While there are indeed people who have lost the ability to digest lactose, numerous people who have adverse reactions to dairy are not truly lactose intolerant, but have disruptions of the gastrointestinal microbiome that are responsible for these reactions. Understanding and addressing the difference can be life-changing. And you can make the distinction on your own, even if the doctor does not understand the difference.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

In previous episodes of Defiant Health, I've discussed many of the spectacular potential health effects of boosting oxytocin. Let's now discuss the emotional, social, maternal, and sexual effects of oxytocin that essentially define the human experience. Because modern people have lost much of their capacity to boost oxytocin to high levels, we have lost many of these beneficial effects. Yes: you can regain this capacity and thereby regain the potential for more intense affection, love, trust, generosity, sexuality, and healthier maternal relationship with your baby.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

Make no mistake: the low-fat dietary message of the last 50+ years has been a huge disaster. Coupled with predatory practices of Big Food companies, the result is the world's worst epidemics of obesity and overweight, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver, and Alzheimer's dementia in the history of humans on this planet. Yet there has been no attempt by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, USDA, or any other agency to retract this awful and disastrous message. Beyond the obvious consequences, there are many other less obvious consequences. Let's talk about those less well-recognized, yet still with profound effects for health, of the awful advice to cut dietary fat. Then let's talk about solutions to this mess.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

Compared to human populations following hunter-gatherer lifestyles, we have lost hundreds of microbial species in our gastrointestinal microbiomes. Many of these species performed useful functions in human health that we have therefore lost. Loss of these species has also allowed unhealthy, potentially pathogenic species, to proliferate and dominate, even ascending up the small intestine. This situation--small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO--is now epidemic, affecting greater than 1 in 3 Americans. And it takes a serious toll on your health, mental and physical. Your journey back to health starts by recognizing and acknowledging that there is indeed a problem. Then begin taking steps to correct this situation.

WILLIAM DAVIS, MD is a cardiologist and author of the groundbreaking #1 New York Times bestseller Wheat Belly, three other New York Times bestsellers: Wheat Belly Cookbook, Wheat Belly 30-Minutes (or Less!) Cookbook, and Wheat Belly Total Health, and several other books including Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox and Undoctored. His most recent book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health and Lose Weight that maps out the damage that has occurred with the modern human microbiome and the specific, actionable steps that can be taken to restore it to maximum advantage. In today's episode, Dr. Davis and I discuss myths about heart disease and cholesterol, including the prominent role the gut plays in heart health. He teaches about SIBO, it's releationship with our heart, and the importance of different microbiomes in individual aspects of our health.

While the world obsesses about this silly notion of cholesterol as a cause for heart disease, they ignore the many other--and more important--causes of heart disease, causes that you can manage effectively on your own. It does NOT require prescription drugs or procedures to have a major impact on the factors that lead to heart attack, need for heart procedures, or sudden cardiac death. The number one killer of men and women worldwide can be managed YEARS before danger sets in but the answers will not be found in cholesterol, fat intake, or other conventional notions of heart health.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

Here are two nutrients and two microbes that play huge roles in material and infant health, yet almost no obstetrician or gynecologist is advising their patients about them--a major oversight! Because doctors are not doing their job in advising people on how to stack the odds in favor of not having premature labor, correcting vaginal dysbiosis, and markedly improving the health of their child, you can take the reins of health on your own. I also include a discussion about human milk oligosaccharides and their importance to babies and perhaps even to adults.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

If you've been following my programs, you are likely already supplementing around 3000-3600 mg per day of EPA+DHA for heart health benefits, as well as reduced potential for Alzheimer's dementia and to reduce triglycerides. But did you know that there are important benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for pregnancy, lactation, early neurodevelopment, and for reducing endotoxemia?

Tracking finger stick blood glucoses can be an extremely powerful tool for health--if used properly. Unfortunately, most conventional doctors have no idea how to do this and instead advise you that blood sugars of up to 200 mg/dl are acceptable. This is absolutely and completely wrong. Tracking blood sugars prior to a meal, then 30-60 minutes after a meal, to identify peak blood glucose provides insights into diet and health that can even be used  by someone with type 2 diabetes to become non-diabetic, to facilitate weight loss, and even to address risk for heart disease. We do so by following my "No Change Rule" for blood glucose.Get your Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, and low-carb snack bars:Use the coupon code "Defiant" for an additional 15% discount.

Lactobacillus reuteri is one of the most important bacterial species in the human microbiome. Yet it has been lost by the majority of Americans due to this microbe's susceptibility to common antibiotics like amoxicillin and ampicillin. One of the terrific benefits of L. reuteri  is its ability to provoke release of the hormone, oxytocin, from the brain. Until recently, there was no user-friendly way to boost oxytocin. It cannot be ingested orally because the digestive process breaks it down. It can be injected but lasts only about 3 minutes. It can be administered via nasal inhaler but requires 3 squirts four times per day in each nostril, with each dose lasting only 60-90 minutes. We now know that restoring this lost microbe, L reuteri, is key: restore it and you create a source of endogenous oxytocin. Oxytocin is the hormone of love and empathy. It causes you to engage with other people, take an interest in them, understand their points of view better--can you appreciate how important this hormone can be for human social interaction? Spread the word: you can restore L reuteri and thereby oxytocin and perhaps make the world a little better place. One source of L. reuteri is the BioGaia Gastrus product available on Amazon or through the U.S. distributor, Everidis: everidis.comI shall be reporting on the results of our animal study comparing different strains of L. reuteri, meaning that we will know which strain is most effective for this phenomenon.______________________________________________________________________________________________________My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:My new book is Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

The tools and insights into the human microbiome are exploding and everyday people--non-scientists, non-microbiologists--are able to generate new experiences and learn new lessons that provide important advantages in health. We, as microbiome citizen scientists, are learning new lessons virtually every day: how to increase energy, smooth skin wrinkles, reduce arthritis pain and perhaps even slow or reverse joint arthritis, improve mood, deepen sleep, all by managing our microbiomes. For example, we have discovered that microbes fermented to high counts generate deep sleep, a phenomenon not previously described in experimental clinical trials. Join the movement and become a microbiome citizen scientist and empower yourself in health.

The intestinal microbiome, i.e., the collection of microbes in your gastrointestinal tract, are proving to be major players in the length, quality, and content of your sleep. The intestinal microbiome can make the difference between deep, restful, dream-filled sleep, to superficial, disrupted, dreamless sleep, and all the emotional and health consequences that accompany these crucial differences. You can take steps, including cultivation of specific microbial species, to regain wonderful, restful, dream-filled sleep by taking control over your microbiome, including cultivation of specific species that exert effects over sleep.L reuteriSourced initially as BioGaia Gastrus tablets.

How did a cardiologist aborting heart attacks, putting in stents, and performing other heart procedures end up talking about the destructive effects of wheat?It was far from a straight line but a series of blunders and inadvertent discoveries that led me down this path. But it was a path that showed me how powerful going against conventional advice could be that led to spectacular weight loss in people, putting many people with type 2 diabetes into remission, reducing blood pressure, and reversing numerous other common chronic health conditions.

It's a basic requirement of life and health: vitamin D. Even after I and others have been broadcasting this message for over 10 years, many still ignore it, remain skeptical, or simply don't get it right. And, sadly, you cannot rely on your doctor to get it right, as they often say things like "You can get all the vitamin D you need from diet, or "Just get some sun," or "There's no need for vitamin D"--all of which is tragically wrong. But getting it right yields SO many health benefits. So it is important for YOU to know when vitamin D is just right and enjoy all its spectacular health benefits.

Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO,  in which unhealthy bacterial species have proliferated and ascended up the 24-feet of small intestine, is now epidemic, an epidemic that underlies common health struggles that include weight gain, obesity, pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, autoimmune diseases, irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, and numerous other health conditions. Solutions for SIBO typically involve antibiotics, despite being a condition that was likely caused, or at least worsened, by antibiotics in the first place. But I believe that we may have a solution that involves cultivating specific microbial species as a yogurt, something I call "SIBO Yogurt" that provides microbes with specific characteristics that may reduce or eradicate SIBO.  AIRE device from FoodMarble:https://foodmarble.comFor the full instructions on how to use the AIRE device for detection of SIBO, the herbal antibiotic regimen we use, and the recipe on SIBO Yogurt, see the Super Gut book:My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Conventional "solutions" for depression are largely inadequate: often ineffective, with side-effects that include weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and suicide. Evidence is increasingly pointing towards the intestinal microbiome as a source for depressive symptoms. This tells us that prescription drugs such as the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, that only address a step in the pathway of serotonin metabolism, do not address the underlying cause of many, if not most, cases of depression: disruption of the intestinal microbiome. Species such as Turicibacter sanguinis are proving to be crucial players in mood, while bacterial and fungal overgrowth, SIBO and SIFO, can also be common contributors to depression. The bad news: these disruptions of the intestinal microbiome are common and widespread. The good news: there are steps you can take to remedy the situation and thereby potentially have marked effects on mood and depression.AIRE device from FoodMarble:https://foodmarble.comBioGaia Gastrus tablets are the source for Lactobacillus reuteri: https://everidis.com/product/biogaia-gastrus/(From the North American distributor)My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:My new book is Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Over the past 30 years, I have made a number of blunders in health. But I always made it a point to learn from my mistakes. Doing so taught me a number of important lessons in health and nutrition, lessons that revealed just how little conventional ideas on health yielded and how doing things very differently yields enormous health advantages. In this episode of Defiant Health, I therefore recount:How cutting dietary fat and eating plenty of "healthy whole grains" leads to metabolic disastersHow the death of my mother from sudden cardiac death showed me how inadequate heart procedures are for dealing with coronary heart diseaseHow rejecting cholesterol and resorting to more advanced lipoprotein testing illustrated how not cutting fat and banishing all grains and sugars yielded huge advantages and led to methods to reduce coronary calcium scoresDespite the enormous advantages of the Wheat Belly grain-free lifestyle, there were people who had residual health issues such as stalled weight loss, food intolerances, or autoimmune conditions that finally responded to more vigorous efforts to rebuild a healthy microbiomeHow identifying, then replacing, microbes lost from the modern human microbiome yields extraordinary benefits such as deeper sleep, restoration of youthful muscle, smoother skin with fewer wrinkles, and preservation of bone density. And why and how following these strategies, drawn from lessons learned by making huge blunders in health, yields a level of health that is superior to the "health" the doctor provides.BioGaia Gastrus tablets are the source for Lactobacillus reuteri: https://everidis.com/product/biogaia-gastrus/(From the North American distributor)My new book is Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight that shows you 1) how to identify and replace lost microbes from the human microbiome with extraordinary results, and 2) how to beat back unhealthy microbes that have proliferated and can be responsible for numerous health conditions.Find Super Gut in these bookstores:Barnes & NobleAmazonBooks a MillionFor more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:My new book is Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Over the past years, the human microbiome has been dramatically altered. Chemicals in our environment, over exposure to antibiotics, and industrialized food, have created changes that pose silent dangers for health. According to Dr. William Davis, we desperately need to reintroduce our bodies to the microbial species that once lived in our ancestors, while pushing back the army of interlopers that have taken their place. Dr. Davis talks about how we can reprogram our microbiome to improve our health. Dr Davis is a cardiologist and author of the number one New York Times bestseller, Wheat Belly. His new book is, Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight. Music: www.purple-planet.com Show site: www.cyacyl.com

The bestselling author of the Wheat Belly books brings his next big, game-changing idea – how the human microbiome is evolving, and potentially wrecking, our health, and how we can fix it.In his latest book SUPER GUT: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight, Dr. William Davis shares an action plan for how we can replace essential microbes lost from the modern microbiome while eliminating the “bad ones” that cause small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, SIBO, and small intestinal fungal overgrowth, SIFO, overgrowth of microbes that essentially hijack human health.Dr. Davis' roadmap includes his unique method of yogurt fermentation that allows the reader to cultivate specific microbes to obtain specific benefits—just like ordering off the menu at a restaurant, allowing readers to pick and choose their benefits—as well as a daily menu of 40 other gut-fixing recipes, in addition to his first-ever home diagnostic toolkit that can help anyone struggling with bowel blues to avoid expensive and complicated bloodwork and other tests.

Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic fungus, a relative of Saccharomyces cerevisiae used to ferment wine and beer, but better adapted to living in the human gastrointestinal (GI)  tract. Although it does not take up long-term residence, its passage through the GI tract has been associated with substantial health benefits. Making a sparkling cider with this microbial species is an easy  way to increase the number of microbes you can obtain while enjoying this delicious effervescent drink. It also saves you money, as future batches can be made from previous batches.Florastor is our preferred source of the Saccharomyces boulardii CNDM I-745 strain, available at most major pharmacies and department stores, as well as online sources. If these sorts of unique methods to rebuild a damaged microbiome interest you, then take a look at my new book, Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight, available through all major book retailers.For more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:My new book released Feb 1st, 2022: Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)

Because most of us as modern people have lost the intestinal microbe, Lactobacillus reuteri, that is responsible for increasing release of the hormone, oxytocin, from the brain, are the phenomena of love, affection, and concern for other people less intense than they used to be in prior times? Was love and affection stronger, for instance, in the 19th century, the Middle Ages, or the Greek Empire? I share a unique personal experience that indelibly imprinted this question on my brain. In the meantime, you can enjoy the restoration of increased love, empathy, and social connection by restoring this microbe to your intestinal microbiome.Sources of BioGaia L. reuteri tablets:Gastrus tablets: everidis.com/shop-products/How to make  L. reuteri yogurt using extended fermentation:www.wheatbellyblog.com/2019/07/how-to-make-l-reuteri-yogurt-step-by-step/More about my new book, Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight, including extras for anyone pre-ordering before Feb 1, 2022 release:https://www.wheatbellyblog.com/super-gut/For more information on Dr. Davis' programs:Books:Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose WeightWheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded editionWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxWheat Belly 30-Minute (Or Less!)
