Here’s what happens when you reduce endotoxemia
11/06/23 • 24 min
Ready to unlock the secret to your health buried deep within your gut? In today's illuminating episode, we reveal the unsuspected ways in which small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and lipopolysaccharide endotoxins (LPS endotoxins) can drastically alter your health. We delve into the underworld of fecal microbes and their dangerous ability to cause inflammation and endotoxemia. Connect the dots between these hidden threats and a host of health conditions, from obesity to anxiety and even dementia. You'll be astounded to know how common SIBO is, with studies showing its presence in a whopping 50% of people with fatty liver and 40% suffering from irritable bowel syndrome.
Imagine a world where conditions like restless leg syndrome, fibromyalgia, and obesity could be managed by understanding and treating SIBO? We're here to guide you through that very journey. We examine the process of detecting and treating SIBO using the revolutionary AIRE device from Food Marble. You'll learn how a rise in values by four units or more means a positive SIBO test. Lastly, we explore the power of natural remedies, like fermenting specific microbes for four weeks and the benefits of daily consumption of fermented foods. Join us, as we navigate the complex world of the small intestine, uncovering the pivotal role it plays in our overall health.

Making Sense Out of Your Cholesterol Panel
Cholesterol testing is among the most common blood tests run in conventional healthcare, yet it is a perennial source of confusion and, to be honest, abuse by doctors who don’t appreciate the full implications of the values. It may surprise you to know that doctors focus on the least helpful values such as total or LDL cholesterol while often ignoring the two genuinely helpful values, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides. HDL for instance is packed with useful insights into your health, as it is a reliable index of metabolic health. Low HDL, that I would define as less than 60 mg/dl, is a reflection of multiple health distortions such as insulin resistance, inflammation, excessive intra-abdominal fat, small LDL particles and VLDL that cause heart disease.
You might also be surprised to learn that consuming fats only spikes triglyceride levels for a few hours, whereas the process of your liver converting carbohydrates to triglycerides can cause a much larger increase after six to eight hours or more. Discover the factors that can amplify this process, including insulin resistance, inflammation, excessive intra-abdominal fat, and even dysbiosis and small intestine bacterial overgrowth.
The road to cardiovascular health doesn't have to be paved with cholesterol. We'll reveal how VLDL particles and triglyceride levels are intricately linked, why it's essential to keep your triglycerides below 60 milligrams per deciliter, and how higher triglycerides can result in lower HDL levels. Discover how simple dietary changes can lead to lower triglycerides and higher HDL levels, and why measuring LDL particles using NMR lipoprotein analysis offers a more accurate picture than the commonly used LDL cholesterol. Join us as we dispel the myths around cholesterol and empower you to take control of your cardiovascular health.

The 7 counterintuitive keys to successful long-term weight loss
There are a variety of ways to lose weight: reduce calories, pharmaceuticals, bariatric procedures. But these are successful only in the beginning: You lose, say, 40 pounds over a year only to gain it all back. Of that 40 pounds, 10 pounds is muscle. And, when you gain it back, it is nearly all fat, very little muscle. You are now less healthy than you were at the start of your weight loss journey. And, if repeated, as with yo-yo dieting in which you lose, regain, then lose and regain again, your metabolic health gets worse and worse and, not only are you discouraged and demoralized, but you are also setting yourself up for some pretty serious health consequences including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and increased potential for cognitive decline and dementia.
So let’s be smarter. Let’s not repeat the mistakes of conventional thinking in weight loss and let’s instead discuss 7 counterintuitive strategies that help you lose weight, not lose muscle, and thereby not regain the weight or regain the fat and thereby not only enjoy your new shape and body composition, but avoid all the health complications of the conventional path.
