The Doctor's Kitchen Podcast - #122 Collagen, Acne and the Gut-Skin Connection with Dr Harriet Holme
play

10/13/21 • 66 min

Skin, lifestyle and diet. Perhaps some of the commonest things I get asked about by patients, the doctor’s kitchen community and honestly one of the least understood at this point. In today’s episode we dive into acne, a bit about the gut skin axis, we also talk about Dr Harriet’s background in science from the lab to the plate or pill as well as our thoughts on collagen! Make sure you listen to the end because I summarise my thoughts on diet, lifestyle and supplements for healthy skin, so you don’t want to miss that.


It’s always a pleasure having Dr Harriet on the pod. Her experience as both a frontline clinician, scientist and registered nutritionist really shows and I love chatting to her.


Dr Harriet Holme is a Registered Nutritionist (AfN), and former experienced paediatrician. After studying at Cambridge University, she worked as a doctor in the NHS for over a decade before focusing on nutrition. She has a PhD in genetics and is a lecturer in nutrition.


Dr Harriet has authored two books 'Eating During Pregnancy', that she wrote to provide mums to be with credible information on pregnancy nutrition and ‘Postpartum Nutrition: An Expert’s Guide to Eating After a Baby’, to support new mums, and their journey through motherhood and weaning. Dr Harriet also has a number of virtual courses on nutrition on her website https://healthyeatingdr.com, the links to which are on the podcast show notes.


There’s also an article to support today’s podcast that you can find on www.thedoctorskitchen.com website which lists some of the evidence base used for the recommendations and I hope you find it a useful resource.

The Doctor's Kitchen Podcast

play

06/17/20 • 68 min

My guest today is the truly inspirational Dr William W. Li, MD. An internationally renowned physician, scientist, and author of the New York Times Bestseller 'Eat to Beat Disease - The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself'.


His groundbreaking work has led to the development of more than 30 new medical treatments, has impacted more than 50 million people worldwide, and covers more than 70 diseases including cancer, diabetes, blindness, heart disease, and obesity. His TED Talk, “Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?” has garnered more than 11 million views. Dr. Li has appeared on The Dr. Oz Show, CNN, and CNBC and has been featured in USA Today, TIME, The Atlantic, and O Magazine. Dr. Li is President and medical director of the Angiogenesis Foundation.


We talk about a range of topics from his latest book including the 5 defence systems of the body:


Your Microbes, stems cells, immune system , angiogenesis, your genes and how nutrition and lifestyle can positively influence them. As a food as medicine pioneer who started these conversations way before I even thought of The Doctor’s Kitchen, Dr Li has been a true inspiration of mine.

On this episode we talk about

  • The microbiota, how certain foods can improve your body’s ability to regulate sugar
  • What stem cells are and the different types of foods that can help promote regeneration
  • The difference between pro and anti-angiogenesis and why both are helpful and harmful depending on the circumstance and how food can positively help with both.
  • The benefits of food for the immune system support
  • The utility of combining epidemiology, lab studies and human trials to determine which foods we should consume.
  • The future of food prescriptions and how medicine could look in 10-15 years time
  • The impact of food to positively impact the efficacy of medicine in the field of cancer, cardiology and neurology.

And definitely go and check out Dr William Li's book - 'Eat to Beat Disease - The New Science of How Your Body Can Heal Itself' - it's a fascinating book and most certainly well worth a read.

Henry and Ian and are the UK’s bestselling vegan authors with 4 published books so far. And with their latest book - Healthy Vegan being a Sunday Times Bestseller.


And to top everything off, they now host the first vegan cookery series on mainstream TV, called Living on The Veg which you can find on ITV. It's a fantastic show and helps to make plant based eating so much more accessible - definitely do go and check it out!

Susan Wood has worked as a UK registered dietitian for over 35 years, predominantly in the NHS, treating a wide range of paediatric and adult conditions. In 2008, the referral of one young adult for the dietary management of drug resistant epilepsy sparked her interest in ketogenic diet therapy (KDT) and since then she has been pioneering the development of adult treatment protocols in the UK and raising the awareness of dietitians and adult neurologists to the potential that KDT can offer to adults.


In 2009 she started to work alongside the Matthews Friends Charity offering support to adults and their neurology teams seeking treatment.

On the podcast this week we're taking a slightly different approach - we usually cover topics such as food, medicine and lifestyle, but in light of the current situation I thought it would be pertinent to share something else with you this week.


We're delaying our future episodes for the time being and I wanted to talk to you today about the COVID19 situation - there's a lot of details out there at the moment and it's an incredibly overwhelming amount of information coming from many many different sources, including social media.


This weeks episode is geared toward arming you with the tools to understand the current news, how to contextualise the scary scenarios and what to expect from the numbers over the next few weeks.


So today, I wanted to share with you

  • My thoughts on 'what you need to know' regarding the current COVID19 situation (as of 28th March)
  • A 'How to' guide for dealing with quarantine and the positive effects it can have including opportunities for kindness
  • How you can be supporting your mental health
  • Ways to look after your physical health and your nutrition intake
  • The impact the situation may be having on teenagers/students
  • Tips on navigating social media and the media/news at the current time
  • My current work within the NHS and ways that you may be able to help and get involved
  • What we're doing within The Doctor's Kitchen to provide support and information throughout this time

I appreciate that there's a lot of news and information out there at the moment on COVID19, so please do feel free to listen to as little or as much of this episode as you can at this current time.


And don't forget to subscribe to The Doctor's Kitchen newsletter where we will be continuing to share weekly science based recipes and tips to help you live the healthiest and happiest lifestyle possible.

SUGAR. It’s everywhere and in everything and in various guises. Fake sugar, artificial, refined, raw, natural, low calorie sweetener and table. Over 200 names for it exist. And if you google sugar and health you could be told it’s as innocuous as water or it’s as dangerous and as addictive as cocaine and worse than alcohol for your liver.


To get to the crux of what’s really going and how dangerous sugar is in our food system (and it’s artificial counterparts) I’m speaking with Professor Michael Goran - Professor of Pediatrics at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles and Dr. Emily Ventura a nutrition educator, public health advocate, writer, and cook with a Masters in Public Health and Doctorate of Philosophy in Preventive Medicine. They’re also co-authors the fantastic book “Sugarproof” in which they explain the hidden danger that sugar poses to a child’s development and what options there are for parents and carers to mitigate sugar consumption.


Professor Michael Goran has also published over 350 peer-reviewed articles and reviews. He is the Editor of the “Childhood Obesity: Causes, Consequences and Intervention Approaches” published in 2017, co-editor of “Dietary Sugars and Health” published in late 2014, and currently serves as Editor- in-Chief for Pediatric Obesity.


This is the podcast I’ve been asked to do so many times. So finally we can lift the lid on sugar and its impact. Listen to the end for my top tips and do check out the book Sugarproof on the podcast show notes


On the show today we talk about:

  • Types of sugar and their various forms
  • Why Artificial sweeteners could be just as problematic
  • Why children are uniquely vulnerable to sugar
  • How problems with sugar can be independent of weight
  • Why sugar IS addictive
  • Refined carbohydrates and how they can have similar effects
  • Sugar, Inflammation and the brain
  • The mechanisms of how sugar impacts the liver, behaviour and mood
  • Policies to protect ourselves in the future
  • Tips to lessen our sugar burden
