In this conversation, Jill Harris, a kidney stone prevention nurse, discusses the popular natural remedy chanca piedra and its effectiveness in treating kidney stones. She emphasizes that while chanca piedra is often marketed as a 'stone breaker', it does not actually break up kidney stones. Instead, she advocates for dietary changes as the most effective way to prevent kidney stones. Jill shares insights on the importance of hydration, dietary choices, and lifestyle changes that can lead to significant health improvements for those prone to kidney stones.TakeawaysChanca piedra does not break up kidney stones.Dietary changes are crucial for kidney stone prevention.Hydration plays a key role in passing stones.Natural remedies can interact with medications.There is limited scientific evidence supporting chanca piedra.Uric acid stones can be treated with alkali substances.Calcium oxalate stones cannot be broken up.Lifestyle changes can lead to significant health improvements.Consistency in dietary habits is essential for prevention.Personal experiences with remedies vary widely.00:00 Understanding Chanca Piedra and Kidney Stones09:57 The Importance of Dietary Changes for Kidney Stone Prevention——HAVE A QUESTION? _Leave us a voicemail at (773) 789-8764.KIDNEY STONE DIET® APPROVED PRODUCTSProtein Powders, Snacks, and moreWORK WITH JILL _Kidney Stone Diet®Kidney Stone Prevention CourseKidney Stone Diet® Meal PlansSUPPORT THE SHOW _Join the PatreonRate Kidney Stone Diet on Apple Podcasts or Spotify——WHO IS JILL HARRIS? _For over 25 years, Jill Harris has been a kidney stone prevention nurse helping patients reduce their kidney stone risk.

In this episode I'm sharing my recent lab test, 23 lab tests in menopause, to be exact. I'll share why so many, how often, what I'll learn from them. If you're at a loss for what to order or really, what you need and want a doctor to run this will help. Connecting the dots is not always easy! Though I ran almost all of these as a part of writing You Still Got It, Girl! Almost a decade ago, by ordering self-directed labs and doing the research to interpret them and take actions to either follow up with a physician or to consider dietary, exercise, and natural solutions that would improve results, I recommend you utilize a physician who's willing to and not threatened by your desire to learn more about the what, why and when for these tests. You know how you feel and what's right for you. Hopefully you're not settling for less than feeling great. Signs that you're not doing okay, in spite of your efforts include unexplained weight gain, inability to lose it, feeling lethargic/tired either on a regular basis or after exercise. Add to that insomnia, dizziness, brain fog, gut issues, and so many more. Having a basic understanding of the tests, that often are not ordered by Western trained docs, and why you want them, may help you be a detective and an advocate for your own health. Recent Lab Tests in Menopause Fasting Glucose Fasting levels above 125 are indicative of diabetes. Those 100-125 indicate prediabetes. Knowing this is helpful for monitoring your habits. A continuous blood glucose monitor can be a fantastic tool for you. https://www.flippingfifty.com/myglucose Fasting Insulin Metabolism issues or weight loss resistance are good reasons to check fasting insulin (beyond just fasting glucose). Insulin resistance can promote additional weight gain. A1C This number can indicate how well controlled sugar levels have been over the past 3 months and also can indicate a prediabetic or diabetic condition. Serum Ferritin Reliable indicator of body's iron stores. Low or very high ferritin may have a condition that results in fatigue. Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy This is important for energy and gaining muscle, particularly fast twitch muscle, as well as energy. Falling into “norms” is under optimal levels so this one can be important for women in midlife and beyond to know. Uric acid Optimal levels may support antioxidant activity but too high can be linked to oxidative stress. Vitamin A Concentrations of uric acid and vitamin A are closely associated. This test may be used to indicate a reason why uric acid levels are high. CRP A major marker of inflammation. Risk of disease increases significantly with high CRP. A Fasting Lipid Panel Looking at cholesterol, LDL, HDL and the total/HDL ratio can tell you what's happening in your body. It might be genetic, lifestyle or also occurring during menopause as the body generates more cholesterol to attempt to produce hormones. Free Testosterone This is the testosterone immediately available. Can support weight loss and improve memory and strength. Testosterone Elevated testosterone can lead to hair growth, acne, moodiness. But too low can lead to difficulty gaining muscle and bone density. DHEA-S Your precursor to the sex hormones and also an indicator of adrenal function. Variety of Lab Tests in Menopause Estradiol Check for optimal levels for some women, confirming they're in menopause and for others like me doing hormone replacement, that hormone levels are optimized. Estrone The estrogen product after menopause. Progesterone Can lower post menopause and make sleep and relaxing harder. Thyroid Hormone Tests TSH Released by your brain to signal your thyroid gland. It can be used to monitor dosing of your thyroid medication or as a screening test for the presence of thyroid disease. Free T4 The thyroid makes predominately T4. Free T4 is what your body uses to make the active thyroid hormone called free T3. These are advanced biomarker tests, not routinely done, but very helpful to determine if the thyroid can be affecting how you feel. Free T3 Symptoms (constipation, weight gain, tiredness, low libido) of low thyroid may be missed (passed off as normal or something else) unless the active thyroid hormone (free T3) is measured. High levels may indicate hyperthyroidism. Symptoms of hyperthyroidism include fatigue, anxiety, sudden weight loss, rapid heartbeat, irritability, more frequent bowel movements, difficulty sleeping, sweating and tremors. Free T3 is an advanced screening biomarker that helps screen routinely missed thyroid issues. TPA (Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies) Thyroid disease has become very common and we can often pick up inflammation in the thyroid years before the thyroid fails. This is important because natural interventions may help reverse the inflammation of the thyroid gland. TA (Thyroglobulin Antibodies) This test can be positive in people with inflammation of the thyroid gland, and it can be seen years before complete thyroid failure – giving you time to take action! Reverse T 3 Reverse T3 is the storage form of the active thyroid hormone. Many conditions can cause you to store thyroid instead of use it as active free T3. If your reverse T3 is high then you may need to address the reasons why. Broader Selection of Lab Tests in Menopause **FSH (**Follicle-stimulating hormone) Levels of this hormone indicate phases of hormones including puberty, reproduction and menopause. Levels rise significantly after menopause. ****This test can be helpful for someone who isn't sure what's happening or wants to confirm levels are dropping. **SHBG **(**Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) SHBG is used to keep excessive free estrogen out of the blood stream, looking at these levels can help identify if hormone control health habits can improve your overall health. Sex hormone binding globulin is a protein mainly produced by the liver, and studies show that diets high in simple sugars cause the liver to produce less SHBG. Low levels of SHBG are seen in obesity, prediabetes, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Other Tests Total Cortisol Early morning cortisol screen for adrenal gland function. 4 Sample Saliva Test Measures throughout the day to get a more accurate picture of your stress hormone pattern. ACTH Stimulation Test Administered by a physician to test response Omega 3 and 3/6 Index For muscle and joint aches and pains, and brain health, knowing your omega 3 and 6 index can help you improve overall health and decrease inflammation. Food Sensitivity Testing Depending on which level of comprehensive test you do, you can test for 90 common food sensitivities (or more) and learn what is low, moderate, and highly sensitive for you. Avoiding moderate and higher food sensitivities for 3 months while also taking extra care of your gut can help reduce symptoms of gas, bloating, or other digestive issues stemming from leaky gut situation. Adding probiotics, glutamine, oregano oil and foods known to support gut bacteria can all help improve the gut before attempting to reintroduce. GI-Map For gut issues that aren't resolved with dietary changes, scores will tell you your gut bacteria levels and which may be out of balance so you can choose very specific probiotics to help rebalance, as you avoid foods that show moderate and high on your sensitivity results.

Uric acid, a byproduct of purine metabolism, is usually expelled through the kidneys. When production exceeds excretion, it leads to hyperuricemia, causing gout, kidney stones, and inflammation linked to insulin resistance.Dr. Bikman explains that excessive uric acid activates inflammation pathways, producing ceramides that disrupt insulin signaling, leading to insulin resistance. He highlights the connection between fructose consumption and uric acid production, noting that unregulated fructose metabolism in the liver increases uric acid levels. This rise in fructose intake, rather than purine-rich foods, contributes to gout and metabolic issues.To address this, Dr. Bikman discusses pharmacological interventions like allopurinol, which lowers uric acid levels but may have side effects. He also mentions allulose, a rare sugar that shows promise in reducing uric acid by enhancing its excretion. Despite potentially increasing uric acid, the ketogenic diet is noted for reducing inflammation and improving insulin sensitivity due to ketones.Dr. Bikman concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding uric acid's role in metabolic health and encourages further research and practical dietary interventions to manage uric acid levels, integrating pharmacological, nutritional, and lifestyle approaches to improve overall metabolic health.Studies referenced in this episode:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24769205/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1933171115006063?via=ihub https://www.metabolismjournal.com/article/S0026-0495(65)80039-7/abstract Learn more at: https://www.insuliniq.com Hosted on Acast.

Today we're going to talk about how to protect your kidneys. The kidneys can take a beating and can even regenerate. They are composed of roughly one million tiny filters, which filter your blood. But as you age, you start losing these filters—so it becomes even more important to start eating better and decrease exposure to toxins. The two worst things for your kidneys are sugar and oxalates. It's crucial to stop consuming sugar and high-carb foods and to start limiting your exposure to high-oxalate foods. However, consuming cheese or dairy with foods that are high in oxalates, but are otherwise healthy, can help counter kidney damage from oxalates. Foods high in oxalates: • Almonds • Spinach • Beet tops • Peanuts • Grains • Beans • Sweet potatoes • Cassava • Tapioca • Kiwi • Chocolate • Swiss chard • Turmeric • Cinnamon • Clove The best ways to protect your kidneys: 1. Consume lemon water every morning 2. Consume apple cider vinegar mixed in water 3. Consume 2.5 liters of water a day 4. Avoid high-oxalate foods or add dairy to high-oxalate foods 5. Get on the Healthy Keto® diet and do intermittent fasting 6. Avoid fructose 7. Avoid consuming high levels of vitamin C 8. Consume potassium (not for end-stage kidney disease) 9. Consume plant foods and microgreens DATA: https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18065... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...

Asthma, Allergies and Nutrition - The Story Here is a long form look at asthma and allergies as I am preparing a lecture on asthma and allergies for a conference in October. I will break it up into a few parts for your consumption. Asthma is now well known to be an inflammatory disease based on the response to anti-inflammatory medications and pathophysiological evidence making it a prime candidate for anti-inflammatory nutritional interventions. The Standard American Diet is filled with pro-inflammatory highly refined and processed foods that are laden with excessive amounts of sugar and unhealthy fats thus promoting inflammatory pathways that exacerbate disease. The genesis of the inflammation is now believed to start in part in the intestinal and pulmonary microbiomes with the loss of immune tolerance. The intestinal microbiome is highly responsive to whole food dietary alterations. Uric acid, a by product of fructose metabolism, is becoming a known driver of inflammasome activation and local tissue inflammation We will discuss in depth the food choices that lower the inflammatory burden, the asthma phenotype and the food immune reactions that exacerbate disease........ Enjoy, Dr. M

People with high uric acid levels have an increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer's.  There's a relationship between these diseases and uric acid.  Uric acid directly leads to insulin resistance.  [19:30] Your Body Is Retaining Uric Acid As A Survival Mechanism   We tend to retain uric acid. Our uric acid levels can be higher as a survival mechanism, thanks to our primate ancestors. We don't hibernate for six months. Therefore, we don't need to be storing this fat for the winter that never comes.  88% of American adults are metabolically unhealthy. Getting Covid is associated with a 40 to 60% increased risk of type two diabetes. Individuals with higher uric acid levels have a higher risk of dying from Covid.  [25:10] Your Body Can't Handle More Than Five Grams of Fructose At A Time Your body can handle some fructose, about five grams at a time.  When your body is presented with high levels of fructose, it overwhelms what the body can do.  When fructose is delivered in the context of fiber, it slows the absorption. So, it's better to eat an apple than drink apple juice.  Vitamin C aids in uric acid excretion.  The most common way to overdo fructose consumption is by drinking fruit juice.  A 12-ounce glass of orange juice might have 30 grams of sugar. There's no way the body will be able to deal with that appropriately.  [35:30] Tart Cherries As A Remedy For Gout and Lowering Uric Acid Levels  Tart cherries have been researched for decades. Originally, tart cherries have been looked upon as a remedy for gout.  It has been noted that people who ate cherries would have fewer gout flare-ups.  Tart cherries are pretty darn effective in lowering uric acid levels.  [36:40] The Health Benefits of Drinking Coffee  Drinking coffee is associated with a dramatically lowered risk of Alzheimer's. Coffee is also associated with lower uric acid levels.  Plus, coffee reduces inflammation, upregulates antioxidant function, and improves detoxification in the body.  Also, coffee helps us grow new brain cells, no matter our age.  [41:45] The Relationship Between Animal-Based Protein and The Role of Uric Acid Fiber is so essential for human health. Most of Dr. Perlmutter's food is plant-based.  Regarding our uric acid story, certain meats or animal products are worse than others. Organ meats, sardines, anchovies, and scallops can raise your uric acid levels.  The most significant issues for uric acid are fructose, purines, and alcohol.  [48:20] Should I Follow A Ketogenic Lifestyle If I Have Gout Attacks?  The most significant player in gout is fructose.  When you research how to fix gout, there will be no talk about removing sugar or fructose from your diet.  The human requirement for sugar in our diets is zero grams per day.  We subsidize the growth of corn from which high fructose corn syrup comes from. We are supporting the diseases that are sucking up our healthcare resources. Diseases are significant money makers for the healthcare industry.  It's time we start thinking about prevention.  [52:25] What Role Does Mental-Emotional Stress Play With Uric Acid Levels? When we are experiencing stress, our ability to make rational, forward-thinking decisions is compromised. When your decision-making is compromised, you won't be making good lifestyle choices.  Therefore, under stress, you will eat more foods that have sugar.  Eventually, you will raise uric acid levels and feed the flame of poor metabolic health. It is time to make better decisions by lowering your stress levels.  AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:  Check out Dr. David Perlmutter's Website: https://www.drperlmutter.com/ Follow Dr. Perlmutter  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DavidPerlmutterMd Twitter: https://twitter.com/davidperlmutter YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DavidPerlmutterMD Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidperlmutter/ Get Dr. Perlmutter's Books: https://www.drperlmutter.com/learn/books/ Grain Brain: https://www.amazon.com/Grain-Brain-Surprising-Sugar-Your-Killers/dp/0316485136/benazadi-20 Drop Acid: The Surprising New Science of Uric Acid―The Key to Losing Weight, Controlling Blood Sugar, and Achieving Extraordinary Health: Uric Acid testing device: https://amzn.to/3yjeP8Q https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Acid-Surprising-Controlling-Extraordinary/dp/0316315397/benazadi-20 Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Free 7 Day Keto Challenge May 9th 2022.

High blood pressure has something to do with the kidneys and salt. A substance called uric acid seems to be important in what causes high blood pressure. As he studied uric acid, he started to realize it was more than just high blood pressure and gout. Uric acid is actually involved in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Eventually, he found that fructose led to an increase in uric acid. [04:20] What Is The Connection Between High Uric Acid and Inflammation? Our body is made up of protein, carbohydrates, fat, bone, etc. Uric acid is considered a waste product. When we eat meats, drink beer, and eat sugar, these foods can generate uric acid. Uric acid is what is excreted from the body. If uric acid is built up, it can lead to inflammation and gout. 9 million people in the United States suffer from gout. A lot of people have low-grade inflammation in their blood. This inflammation can accelerate diseases like atherosclerosis and heart disease. [09:10] Why Is Your Body Producing Excess Uric Acid? If your uric acid is very high, it increases your risk for mortality. Plus, uric acid is being linked to cancer. Uric acid is involved in the process to make fat. When you eat enough fructose, it triggers uric acid. The body switches from making a lot of ATP to storing the energy in fat. Uric acid is actually important in survival. Humans are very sensitive to fructose. Fructose is in table sugar and high fructose table sugar. [24:20] Why The Keto Lifestyle Is So Powerful Our bodies can make fructose. Potatoes and rice do not contain fructose, but they contain what we call high glycemic carbs, it triggers this response in your body to make fructose. You will start making fructose in response to these carbs. That's why carbs are driving obesity dramatically. The keto diet is powerful because it blocks these two major food groups: fructose and high glycemic carbs. [29:30] The Benefits You Get From Exercise   When you exercise, you do things that help the mitochondria regenerate. If the mitochondria regenerate, they can go back to normal. When the function of the mitochondria improves, your energy improves. You can diet all you want, but if your mitochondria are bad, you will also go back to your original weight. When you're young and gain weight, you can lose it much easier. [38:55] One of the Many Benefits of A Ketogenic Lifestyle When you eat sugar, you have to absorb the sugar. The ability to absorb sugar varies from person to person. If you're eating sugar every day, you're going to absorb the sugar very fast. When you put an animal on a high sugar diet, it will learn how to absorb it fast and absorb it very efficiently. If you don't eat sugar, those transport systems to transport the sugar into the body get turned off. [43:35] The Importance of Oxygen For Creating Energy When you make ATP in the mitochondria, you use oxygen. One of the main reasons we need oxygen is for our mitochondria to make the energy we need. If we don't have enough oxygen, we can't make energy very well. Our body likes to use glucose as fuel. Insulin resistance reduces the amount of glucose that gets into our muscles, liver, and fat. Much of the brain does not require insulin to move glucose in. AND MUCH MORE!

The elevation of uric acid in the body is a causative mechanism in the development of metabolic diseases and contributes to weight gain and fat production. Uric acid is one of the key links between obesity, diabetes, heart disease, neurologic diseases like dementia, ADHD, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and more. Dr. David Perlmutter talks with Dr. Casey Means about why we have excess uric acid, what foods cause uric acid production, and what simple steps we can take to lower our uric acid levels to be optimal. Look for multiple new shows per week on A Whole New Level, where we have in-depth conversations about metabolic health and how the Levels startup team builds a wellness movement from the ground up in the health and wellness tech industry. They also cover: How uric acid causes cellular dysfunction and insulin resistance, including oxidative stress, and inflammation, and even prevents insulin from getting out of the bloodstream effectively. Why uric acid would have benefitted us evolutionarily in terms of low access to food and water by letting us more easily pack on weight and raise blood pressure—but how that fights against us today because we now live in an evolutionary-environmental mismatch where this survival mechanism hurts us in the face of caloric abundance. The different dietary and environmental factors that generate uric acid, including fructose, purine-rich foods and umami foods, dehydration, alcohol, and more. How uric acid impairs our hunger signals, drives us to eat, and even promotes risk-taking behavior. How to reverse high uric acid levels as a way to unlock optimal health.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Brian interviews Dr. David Perlmutter about his new book, "Drop Acid," which focuses on uric acid and how it relates to metabolic health, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and other health issues. The two discuss the importance of understanding the role of uric acid in the body and how it can be managed through diet and lifestyle changes to support overall health. As a neurologist, Dr. Perlmutter became interested in uric acid's impact on the brain and explored this topic in his book.Elevated Uric Acid Can Cause DiseaseElevated uric acid levels in the body can cause several diseases and conditions. Uric acid is a naturally-occurring substance in the body, but when it is present at higher-than-normal levels, it can cause many health problems. Uric acid is most commonly associated with gout, a type of arthritis, but it can also be linked to other conditions such as metabolic syndrome, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes.Uric acid is produced when the body breaks down purines, which are found in certain foods such as organ meats, sardines, anchovies, and mushrooms. When the body cannot properly process and excrete the excess uric acid, it can build up in the bloodstream and cause problems.Limit Added Sugar ConsumptionIn today's modern world, limiting added sugar consumption is more important than ever. Fructose is a type of sugar found naturally in fruits and vegetables and is also added to many processed foods. Fructose is metabolized differently than other sugars and has been linked to higher uric acid levels in the body. Excess fructose intake has been linked to several metabolic issues, including hypertension, cognitive decline, and obesity.Lower Uric Acid For Better HealthUric acid is a by-product of fructose metabolism, and elevated uric acid levels can lead to serious health problems. High uric acid levels are associated with an increased risk of death from all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, and stroke. Additionally, it can increase the risk of erectile dysfunction and lead to the formation of uric acid crystals in the blood vessels and joints. Fortunately, there are ways to reduce uric acid levels and improve health. The first step is to identify and avoid hidden sources of fructose. This includes reading labels and being aware of the different names for added sugars, such as organic cane syrup. It is also important to limit alcohol consumption, especially beer, as it is rich in purines which can raise uric acid levels.

Dr. Joshua Baker, first author of a paper recently published in “Arthritis & Rheumatology”, “Associations Between Low Serum Urate, Body Composition, and Mortality“, is our guest today. Dr. Baker, recognizing the controversy in whether low serum urate or uric acid (UA) level contribute to adverse outcomes, set out to evaluate the relation between low serum UA levels and sarcopenia, to assess whether sarcopenia confounds associations between these low levels and mortality.

Given that sugar is literally hidden in nearly anything you eat and is everywhere in your local food store, the fight to beat diet-related diseases is tricky.Even when you think you're eating healthy, chances are there is a sneaky element of poor nutrition at play, which makes medical professionals like Dr. David Perlmutter beyond frustrated. Dr. Perlmutter is a board certified neurologist and fellow with the American College of Nutrition who has published multiple bestselling books on diet and better brain health.This episode is a masterclass on uric acid and its role in metabolic health. It's possible to fix your diet through good practice, and Dr. Perlmutter is generous with the information he shares that will allow you to make an individualized best assessment for yourself. Your diet and lifestyle are not to be ignored or disregarded for anyone serious about preventing disease. Lack of information leads to unconscious destruction of your gut and havoc being unleashed in your system. Inflammatory problems and metabolic problems can ultimately be addressed with simple, consistent, intentional dietary changes. Some of David's best advice is to know your uric acid levels and stop eating fructose.QUOTES:“70 percent of the manufactured foods in America today, if it has a barcode and its in the grocery store, it has added sweeteners.” [1:06]“It's quite clear that 100% of humans alive today or who have ever lived have this genetic issue with the uric enzyme cannot break down uric acid.” [21:19]“Instead of trying to patch up these problems, the idea of letting our genes keep us healthy, it's kindness, it's about reconnecting to that incredibly beautiful gift that we've received from all who have come before us.” [53:37]“What we choose to do rewires our brain and changes our thinking.” [58:51]“When we're deranged in our metabolic lives it sets the stage for all the bad things you don't want to get.” [59:42]“Fructose is the signal then that prepares us for not having any food.” [1:06:42]Follow David Perlmutter:Website: https://www.drperlmutter.com/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDRl_UAXxbHyOOjklnA0dxQ Twitter: https://twitter.com/davidperlmutter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidperlmutter/

Are we eating too much or are we eating poorly? Fatty liver, a preventable diseaseIf the liver receives too much fructose it cannot handle its excess but how much is too much?. The liver turns sugar into fat and alcohol into fat.  45% of Americans have fatty liver disease. Eating cereal, juices, at breakfast injures the liver, as it takes the excess and converts it into fat.The Latino population has a higher risk of consuming sugar, being more vulnerable, becoming insulin resistant and developing Diabetes 2.We will share with Dr. Lustig  graduated from MIT in 1976, and received his M.D. from Cornell University Medical College in 1980. He completed his pediatric residency at St. Louis Children's Hospital in 1983, and his clinical fellowship at UCSF in 1984. From there, he spent six years as a post-doctoral fellow and research associate in neuroendocrinology at The Rockefeller University. Author of the book Metabolical: The Lure and Lies of Processed Foods, Nutrition and Modern Medicine, Fat Chance, The Hacking of the American Mind . Dr. Lustig has authored over 85 peer-reviewed articles and 30 reviews. He has mentored 20 pediatric endocrine fellows, and trained numerous other allied health professionals.The effects of glucose and fructose.Glucose is the energy of life, it is so important that if it is not consumed, the body produces it.  It is not necessary to consume it for life or in excess. People do not need fructose, since it is three times sweeter than glucose and can cause the same cirrhosis as alcohol.Fruit is good but fruit juice is another story. The food industry sells juice as fruit but they are not the same. Fruit juice is harmful because they are processed products, which lose their nutritional value.Sugar is not dangerous because of its calories or because it is fattening. It is not a food.  When consumed in excess, it becomes an addictive toxin. Become your own health expert:To be aware of what we should do to take responsibility for our health it is important to take into account the following tests:- Abdominal circumference: it should be less than 101 in men and 88 in women.  - ALT test, liver function test, the maximum limit should be 25 but it has gone from 25 to 40, since almost everyone has a fatty liver. - Uric acid test: indirect measure of protein and sugar intake.  - Triglycerides in blood: They are a manifestation of the sugar in the organism.  They indicate what the liver is doing in the body. It is a way of testing insulin resistance. - Fasting insulin:   Insulin levels is not related to obesity, but to metabolic health, which is much more important. It is the most important test to doEating real food is what the population should be induced to eat.Two conditions that real food must have: protect the liver and feed the gut.  This means having a diet low in sugar and high in fiber.  The gut must be a barrier.  When it becomes full of toxins, it becomes permeable, food is not processed well and passes into the bloodstream. Leaky Gut or intestinal hyper permeability has been linked to autoimmune diseases as well as the so common allergies to food an other environmental toxins.https://www.facebook.com/CocoMarchNMDhttps://www.instagram.com/cocomarch.nmd/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyT1tdUjfnbA-4Cqrz8BwFghttps://blog.dracocomarch.comhttps://store.dracocomarch.com/es/https://podcast.comocurar.com/

After reading many studies and papers on Uric acid and gout it is clear most so called research, or at least their pub med versions are mostly a market strategies of pharmaceutical companies. This is no different. This doesn't mean such publications are 'wrong' rather they are omitting large bodies of research that would complicate their message. By omitting vital data simplifies their story, their explanation with the objective to have you agree with their conclusion.

When I was at medical school the subject of Uric acid levels was typically paired with gout, high purine levels in the diet and one of the most ubiquitous drugs, allopurinol, which is used to reduce uric acid levels by inhibiting xanthine oxidase, preventing crystals that can lodge in our joints causing pain.But there is a lot more to do with uric acid than just gout as you'll hear on today's podcast. In fact there's so much more, I'm surprised I haven't come across more on this subject in the past.Dr. Perlmutter is a Board-Certified Neurologist and six-time New York Times bestselling author.

The problem with adopting a healthy diet isn't that people don't want to be healthy, the problem is that there are so many misleading and contradictory messages out there that even when you decide to eat healthy you're still tricked into consuming sugar, chemicals, artificial coloring and everything else that causes metabolic disease and poor gut microbiomes.So let's just focus on the widespread messages that are common among several experts in the field and make at least one improve today to live a healthier and happier tomorrow.Dr. William Li is a Harvard trained medical doctor, researcher and the NY Times bestselling author of the book, Eat to Beat Disease.

Paul shares the results from his August Bloodwork panel from Marek Health. He does a deep dive into Testosterone, Immunoglobulin, Boron, Genistein, Isoflavonoids and touches on TMAO, Uric acid, and GGT. A note from Paul: Throughout my training and practice as a physician I have come to one very disappointing conclusion:  Western medicine isn't helping people lead better lives. Now that I've realized this, I've become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you'll join me on this journey.

If you've tried collagen for aging skin and haven't gotten the results you want... It's because most collagen is missing a critical ingredient. And without this “missing link,” collagen WILL NOT WORK. With this "missing link," you can turn loose, saggy skin –– into tight, glowing, younger-looking skin!   So what is that missing link I am talking about? VITAMIN C.   Of course, you may know Vitamin C as a powerful immune-boosting nutrient...   But did you know that Vitamin C is a critical nutrient for anti-aging? You see, Vitamin C is the "glue" that holds collagen together in your body. And if you're low in Vitamin C, well, all of that collagen you're taking is pointless.   And here's the thing, not all Vitamin C supplements are created equally…   If you're taking Vitamin C in capsule or tablet form, you are missing out on key nutrients as they will simply pass through your body without being absorbed (you can thank your stomach acid for that).   However, our friends over at Purality Health have a patented formula that utilizes something called ‘MICELLE LIPOSOMAL' technology which delivers the nutrients into your bloodstream – proven to be 800% more efficient!   So, if your skin is looking older than you... And the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sagging skin, and otherwise “old-looking” skin frustrates you…   Give Purality Health's Micelle Liposomal Vitamin C a try!

The body produces purine naturally, but it can also come from the food we eat. When there is overconsumption of these foods, uric acid levels escalate. A build-up of uric acid in the body can lead to serious conditions, particularly impacting cardiovascular health, brain, and metabolic functions. In this episode, Dr. Jockers shares what kind of foods contribute to the rise of uric acid levels and the different strategies that can help keep these levels within the normal range.   “When uric acid is elevated, it drives up reactive oxygen species which turn on the inflammasome, which then amplifies inflammation in the cells and tissues of the body." -Dr. David Jockers   Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio   In This Episode:   - Uric acid: what is it and how is it developed?   - Top 9 conditions that you're at risk with when your uric acid level is high   - Optimal range vs functional range of uric acid levels and how they are  different   - Big things you can learn from the Drop Acid book about fructose and alcohol that was found in Science   - Compare high, moderate, and low purine diet and the best types of oil to use for cooking versus the worst oils you need to avoid using     Resources: - Purality Health – Use Code DRJ for 30% off - Paleovalley Beef Sticks – Use Code JOCKERS for 15% off - Lifeboost Coffee – Click the link for 50% off - Immunocharge - Use Code Immune30 at checkout to save 30%   Connect with Dr. Jockers:   - Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/drjockers/   - Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/DrDavidJockers   - YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/user/djockers   - Website – https://drjockers.com/   - If you are interested in being a guest on the show, we would love to hear from you! Please contact us here! - https://drjockers.com/join-us-dr-jockers-functional-nutrition-podcast/

This episode is brought to you by ButcherBox and Vivobarefoot.Uric acid is a central player in metabolic mayhem. Despite its long association with gout and kidney stones, it's involved in so much more—especially our metabolic disease epidemic.There are three things that raise our levels of uric acid: purines, alcohol, and fructose. The latter is the biggest challenge, due to its overwhelming presence in our Standard American Diet. That doesn't mean all fruit is bad or even that all alcohol and purine-rich foods have the same effect. Like all parts of health and nutrition, there are nuances we need to consider to create optimal health.Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru talks about uric acid, the role it plays in turning on, or off, our body's fat-storage switch, and how getting it under control can significantly reduce our risk of chronic disease.In this episode, we dive into: -The link between uric acid and metabolic dysfunction-Why our metabolic switch is always turned on-Hidden sources of fructose in our diets-How uric acid levels can tell us a lot about our cardiometabolic health Also mentioned in this episode:-Try This: How To Turn Off Your Fat-Storage Switch-The Latest Science on How to Turn Your Body's Fat-Storage Switch Off with Dr. Richard Johnson-​​Nature Wants Us to Be Fat: The Surprising Science Behind Why We Gain Weight and How We Can Prevent—and Reverse—It-Try This: Smoothie Recipes That Won't Spike Your Blood Sugar-Calculate Your Fructose Intake -Drop Acid: The Surprising New Science of Uric Acid―The Key to Losing Weight, Controlling Blood Sugar, and Achieving Extraordinary Health-UASure Uric Acid Meter This episode is brought to you by ButcherBox and Vivobarefoot.Right now, ButcherBox is offering new members a great deal.

People with high uric acid levels have an increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer's.  There's a relationship between these diseases and uric acid.  Uric acid directly leads to insulin resistance.  [19:30] Your Body Is Retaining Uric Acid As A Survival Mechanism   We tend to retain uric acid. Our uric acid levels can be higher as a survival mechanism, thanks to our primate ancestors. We don't hibernate for six months. Therefore, we don't need to be storing this fat for the winter that never comes.  88% of American adults are metabolically unhealthy. Getting Covid is associated with a 40 to 60% increased risk of type two diabetes. Individuals with higher uric acid levels have a higher risk of dying from Covid.  [25:10] Your Body Can't Handle More Than Five Grams of Fructose At A Time Your body can handle some fructose, about five grams at a time.  When your body is presented with high levels of fructose, it overwhelms what the body can do.  When fructose is delivered in the context of fiber, it slows the absorption. So, it's better to eat an apple than drink apple juice.  Vitamin C aids in uric acid excretion.  The most common way to overdo fructose consumption is by drinking fruit juice.  A 12-ounce glass of orange juice might have 30 grams of sugar. There's no way the body will be able to deal with that appropriately.  [35:30] Tart Cherries As A Remedy For Gout and Lowering Uric Acid Levels  Tart cherries have been researched for decades. Originally, tart cherries have been looked upon as a remedy for gout.  It has been noted that people who ate cherries would have fewer gout flare-ups.  Tart cherries are pretty darn effective in lowering uric acid levels.  [36:40] The Health Benefits of Drinking Coffee  Drinking coffee is associated with a dramatically lowered risk of Alzheimer's. Coffee is also associated with lower uric acid levels.  Plus, coffee reduces inflammation, upregulates antioxidant function, and improves detoxification in the body.  Also, coffee helps us grow new brain cells, no matter our age.  [41:45] The Relationship Between Animal-Based Protein and The Role of Uric Acid Fiber is so essential for human health. Most of Dr. Perlmutter's food is plant-based.  Regarding our uric acid story, certain meats or animal products are worse than others. Organ meats, sardines, anchovies, and scallops can raise your uric acid levels.  The most significant issues for uric acid are fructose, purines, and alcohol.  [48:20] Should I Follow A Ketogenic Lifestyle If I Have Gout Attacks?  The most significant player in gout is fructose.  When you research how to fix gout, there will be no talk about removing sugar or fructose from your diet.  The human requirement for sugar in our diets is zero grams per day.  We subsidize the growth of corn from which high fructose corn syrup comes from. We are supporting the diseases that are sucking up our healthcare resources. Diseases are significant money makers for the healthcare industry.  It's time we start thinking about prevention.  [52:25] What Role Does Mental-Emotional Stress Play With Uric Acid Levels? When we are experiencing stress, our ability to make rational, forward-thinking decisions is compromised. When your decision-making is compromised, you won't be making good lifestyle choices.  Therefore, under stress, you will eat more foods that have sugar.  Eventually, you will raise uric acid levels and feed the flame of poor metabolic health. It is time to make better decisions by lowering your stress levels.  AND MUCH MORE!   Resources from this episode:  Check out Dr. David Perlmutter's Website: https://www.drperlmutter.com/ Follow Dr. Perlmutter  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DavidPerlmutterMd Twitter: https://twitter.com/davidperlmutter YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DavidPerlmutterMD Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidperlmutter/ Get Dr. Perlmutter's Books: https://www.drperlmutter.com/learn/books/ Grain Brain: https://www.amazon.com/Grain-Brain-Surprising-Sugar-Your-Killers/dp/0316485136/benazadi-20 Drop Acid: The Surprising New Science of Uric Acid―The Key to Losing Weight, Controlling Blood Sugar, and Achieving Extraordinary Health: Uric Acid testing device: https://amzn.to/3yjeP8Q https://www.amazon.com/Drop-Acid-Surprising-Controlling-Extraordinary/dp/0316315397/benazadi-20 Join the Keto Kamp Academy: https://ketokampacademy.com/7-day-trial-a Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ Free 7 Day Keto Challenge May 9th 2022.

Throughout my training and practice as a physician, I have come to one very disappointing conclusion:  Western medicine isn't helping people lead better lives. Now that I've realized this, I've become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you'll join me on this journey. 00:10:40 Podcast begins 00:10:56 Red Meat + Longevity 00:14:11 Healthy user bias vs. unhealthy user bias 00:16:36 Fructose and uric acid 00:20:11 How much fruit is too much? 00:27:56 Fructose  00:30:36 Thoughts on fiber  00:34:16 Processed sugar versus honey and fruit 00:36:21 Paul's thoughts on vegetables 00:41:51 Rick Johnson study on adding fructose back to a low fructose diet 00:47:56 Polyol pathway and sorbitol 00:55:41 Does fruit and honey cause uric acid to rise? 00:57:26 Paul's uric acid over the years 01:00:10 Where does uric acid come from? 1:10:26 How high can uric acid go while fasting?
