Gut issues often stem from dysbiosis, an imbalance in the gut microbiome. This microbiome comprises both beneficial and pathogenic microbes. When this balance is disrupted, dysbiosis occurs. Dysbiosis can cause various health problems, ranging from fatigue and weakened immunity to chronic conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, or asthma.

A healthy gut produces digestive enzymes, maintains gut lining integrity, crowds out harmful bacteria, and trains the immune system. Seventy percent of the immune system resides in the gut. A healthy gut also neutralizes cancer-causing compounds, produces vitamins K and B, metabolizes hormones and medications, and can turn genes on and off. Leaky gut can lead to autoimmune diseases, obesity, diabetes, fatty liver disease, cancers, dementia, heart disease, and arthritis.

Poor gut health symptoms include low energy and skin issues, which are often fungal-related and linked to the gut microbiome. The gut contains good and bad bacteria, with an ideal balance of about 15% bad bacteria. However, herbicides, pesticides, processed foods, and gluten can kill good bacteria, leading to an overgrowth of bad bacteria. If the liver, kidneys, and colon can't process the excess bad bacteria, it manifests through the skin. The skin reflects the health of the gut, mirroring what is consumed. Therefore, one can assess gut health by observing the skin and bowel movements.

Hybridized wheat is claimed to be a factor in skin diseases, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, colitis, gastritis, and sinus and respiratory problems. The reason is that it created a complex gluten structure that is hard for the body to break down, causing an allergic reaction. Eating wheat in moderation may not cause problems for healthy individuals. However, overconsumption of wheat or pre-existing health conditions can exacerbate the issue.

Acne is caused by inflammation and disruption of the skin microbiome, potentially stemming from inflammation in the gut microbiome. The standard American diet is a major contributor to acne due to its high content of refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup. Fast food, with its hydrogenated and inflammatory vegetable oils, also exacerbates the issue. Processed, packaged foods contain chemicals harmful to the gut microbiome. Non-organic or genetically modified foods with pesticides can further disrupt the gut microbiome.

Speaker 0: You have to have stomach acid in order for the human body to digest proteins. In fact, that's the basis of foodborne allergies. And you eat whether it's milk protein or plant protein or animal protein. The stomach has to be acidic in order to break down that protein into amino acids.

Acne may stem from gut health issues, as inflammation originates there. Increased intestinal permeability results from a weakened gut lining, which can be caused by certain foods. Gluten, a protein in wheat and rye found in baked goods, is known to weaken the gut lining. Sugar also disrupts the gut microbiome by eliminating good bacteria, enabling opportunistic bacteria to grow. This process can thin the gut lining, increasing its permeability.

Bloating and gas are common digestive issues with multiple potential causes, including diet, constipation, lactose intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome, hormonal changes, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. Certain foods, such as beans, broccoli, cabbage, and onions, are known to cause bloating and gas, primarily due to their high fiber content. Insoluble and soluble fiber can lead to bloating and gas, especially when someone's body is not accustomed to processing large amounts of fiber.

The speaker shares how they reintroduced dairy into their diet after believing they were lactose intolerant due to gut and skin issues. Lactase, an enzyme that breaks down lactose, is key. They began by consuming dairy products low in lactose, such as butter and Parmesan cheese, while taking a dairy digestive enzyme containing lactase. They gradually introduced foods with higher lactose content, along with gut-nourishing supplements like glutamine and Greek yogurt. After a few weeks, they slowly incorporated A2 dairy, which contains a more tolerable type of casein, in small amounts. Over time, they were able to wean off the enzyme and now consume dairy daily without issues. The speaker believes this method works because the body gets used to lactose with the help of the enzyme, reducing the immune response. They suggest this approach for those with minor gut and skin reactions to dairy, as dairy is a good source of calcium, vitamin K2, and casein peptides.

Bloating is a sensation of a balloon in the gut, different from distension, which is a "food baby." A little bloating after a high-fiber meal is normal and a sign of healthy gut bacteria. Fiber, found in plant-based foods, is important because human cells can't break it down. It travels undigested to the large intestine, where it acts as fertilizer for the gut microbiome. This explains why fiber is linked to longevity and well-being, as it nourishes the microbiome, which performs beneficial functions.

Sugar in a child's brain is called a DHD. Sugar in an adult's brain is called dementia and Alzheimer's. Sugar in your blood is called diabetes. Sugar in your teeth is called cavities. Sugar in your skin is called ageing. Sugar in your eyes is called glaucoma. Sugar in your sleep is called insomnia. Sugar plus alcohol kills the good bacteria in your gut. How to detox from processed sugar. One, lactobacilli in colostrum help metabolise sugar. Two, L glutamine in colostrum helps reduce sugar cravings. Three, cut back on processed snacks and foods. Four, add cowabunga colostrum supplement to your daily routine.

A dietitian says bloating, constipation, diarrhea, or gut disturbances after consuming dairy products like milk, yogurt, or certain cheeses could indicate lactose intolerance.

Bloating can be caused by various factors, including excessive fruit consumption, specifically the fructose overwhelming the body's absorption capacity, leading to fermentation. Sugar alcohols like polyols, found in chewing gum and protein powders, are poorly absorbed and cause gas production. High-fat foods and even fiber can also contribute to bloating. Introducing too much fiber too quickly, especially with a stressed gut, can cause negative symptoms. This is because the gut is damaged and hasn't adapted to efficiently digest fiber. Similar to starting heavy weightlifting without preparation, a sudden increase in fiber leads to a microbial "binge," causing gut symptoms. To avoid these issues while still benefiting from a high-fiber diet, a gradual and steady approach is recommended.

The most important, overlooked aspect of the gut is its speed, not its contents. The 30-foot human intestinal tract functions like Henry Ford's assembly line, a conveyor belt where pH levels dictate the breakdown of contents. Increasing the gut's speed disrupts this process. Acidic bacteria handle contents leaving the stomach, while basic bacteria handle contents near the rectum. Speeding up the gut pushes acidic contents into a basic environment, causing functional problems. This leads to gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, irritability, and cramping, which do not originate from food intake.

Having severe eczema is terrible, with weeping, scaly sores causing constant discomfort. Eczema results from mucus exiting the skin, the body's main way of eliminating waste. The rise in eczema cases is linked to increased cheese consumption, as seen in companies shifting focus to cheese production due to high demand. White rice, sugar, pasta, pizza, and cheese are common triggers for eczema flare-ups.

An elimination diet is a common dietary strategy involving removing problematic foods and reintroducing them after 21-28 days. Allergy or food sensitivity tests are not administered because the philosophy is to heal the gut so one can eat those foods again. Dairy can be problematic, and while some pasture-raised cheese may be tolerated, whey protein and dairy are often avoided. Frequent bathroom visits after meals may indicate gut challenges.

Here are five surprising signs your gut health might be off. First, constant bloating and gas could indicate lactose intolerance or H. pylori infection. Second, changes in bowel habits, like alternating between constipation and diarrhea, could mean polyps or IBS. Third, food reactions could signal gluten or lactose intolerance. Fourth, uncontrolled sugar cravings can mean your gut microbiology is imbalanced. Fifth, struggling to lose weight could also indicate an imbalance in your gut microbiology.

Gluten is an inflammatory protein, though it affects individuals differently. All humans are gluten intolerant to a varying degree. Gluten increases inflammation of the gut and may increase gut permeability.

Bloating occurs when excessive gas in the stomach and intestines causes swelling. This often happens when food isn't properly digested. Common causes include eating quickly, consuming large portions, and intolerances to gluten or dairy. Insufficient chewing can also lead to undigested food causing bloating. Bloating symptoms include burping, flatulence, and a distended stomach. Remedies include relaxing before meals, increasing fiber intake, chewing food thoroughly, and using digestive enzymes. Juicing and consuming ginger, activated charcoal, fennel, and chamomile may also help.

The rapid increase in autoimmune conditions and allergies is unlikely due to human genetics, which change over long periods. People with these conditions often have dysbiosis, a dysregulation of gut health characterized by reduced diversity, fewer healthful microbes, and more pathogenic microbes. While a causal relationship hasn't been established for all autoimmune conditions, mechanisms exist. Dysbiosis leads to a breakdown of the mucosal layer and separation of endothelial cells, which are held together by tight junctions. Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, helps maintain these tight junctions. The breakdown allows molecules, like bacterial endotoxins, to flow from the gut into the bloodstream, revving up the immune system. Increased inflammation leads to oxidative stress, causing DNA damage and accelerating tissue aging.

I switched to almond milk 7 years ago when I discovered I was lactose intolerant. I noticed my symptoms cleared up when we ran out of regular milk at home. So, I started drinking almond milk and didn't think much of it. However, I still felt bloated and unwell even with a small amount of milk. That's when I considered trying raw milk. The first time I had it, I stared at the glass for 10 minutes, thinking I hadn't had milk in ages. Surprisingly, I had no issues with it. The difference between raw and pasteurized milk is significant. It turns out I'm only intolerant to pasteurized milk.

Here are five surprising signs your gut health might be off. First, constant bloating and gas could indicate lactose intolerance or H. pylori infection. Second, changes in bowel habits, like alternating constipation and diarrhea, may signal polyps, growths, or IBS. Third, food reactions can mean gluten or lactose intolerance. Fourth, uncontrolled sugar cravings can mean your gut microbiology is imbalanced. Fifth, struggling to lose weight could also mean that your gut microbiology is out of balance.

Lactose intolerance occurs when the lactase enzyme, which breaks down milk sugar, decreases as we age, making it harder to digest milk. People can overwhelm this enzyme. Someone who thinks they're lactose intolerant may not have given their body a chance to replenish the enzyme to digest milk sugar. Lactose intolerance could mean you don't produce enough lactase or you're consuming so much lactose that you deplete the enzyme. If you take a break from lactose and still can't tolerate it upon reintroduction, you likely don't produce enough lactase to begin with.

Doctor Holland and Fasano at Harvard published a study that shows when humans eat wheat, every human that eats wheat, not just the celiacs, but every human that eats wheat gets tears in the inside lining of the gut every time they're going to disease. There’s a barrier between your bloodstream and your intestines called your gut lining, and your gut lining has microscopic holes in it. Over time, if somebody has intestinal inflammation, large holes open up in your gut lining. Some cells turn over very quickly; the inside lining of the gut has a new lining every three to seven days. So you had toast for breakfast, it heals; you have a sandwich for lunch, it heals; pasta for dinner, it heals; croutons on your salad, it heals; a cookie, but it heals day after week, after month, after year, after year, after year, until one day you don’t heal anymore. When you don’t heal, that’s pathogenic intestinal permeability, and these tears can occur and stay torn when you lose tolerance. You don’t heal anymore, whether you’re two years old, 22, or 72, it just depends on when you cross that threshold as to when this happens, but it happens. What can happen now is undigested food particles such as gluten, casein, toxins, bad bacteria, candida can leak from the intestines into the bloodstream. Your body says those shouldn’t be here. It starts this immune response, and if that isn’t corrected over time, it can start autoimmune disease, and systemic inflammation can affect the joints causing rheumatoid arthritis; it can affect the thyroid causing Hashimoto’s thyroiditis; it can affect the colon causing things like Crohn’s disease or the muscles causing fibromyalgia. So really all autoimmune disease is first caused by leaky gut. It starts in the gut lining. The biggest factors causing this gut reaction are: certain foods, refined grain products; sugar is a big one because sugar feeds candida and yeast in your body, which causes this issue. Genetically modified organisms are wired with pesticides and viruses, which kill off beneficial microbes in the gut, causing leaky gut and autoimmune disease. Also looking at hydrogenated oils; artificial sweeteners are a big one—all of these things contribute to leaky gut. So if you have any inflammatory condition or really any chronic condition, gluten should be at the top of your list in thinking about why, whether it’s an autoimmune disease, digestive disorders, depression, neurologic issues; many of these things are driven through gluten, and by doing an elimination diet you can often see the impact. We’ve seen athletes like Djokovic, who’s actually selling his career by removing inflammatory foods like gluten and dairy and sugar, and seeing him go from near the bottom of the pile of professional tennis players to number one and unbeatable.

Pasteurization is tested by measuring the activity of a certain enzyme; if the enzyme is inactive, the product is considered pasteurized. However, pasteurization may eliminate the benefits of making calcium and phosphorus bioavailable for bone building. Another enzyme, lactase, is destroyed during pasteurization. Lactase helps break down lactose, the milk sugar. Raw milk, especially raw milk cheese, contains lactase, which aids in digestion. Therefore, only raw dairy contains the enzyme lactase to help break down milk sugar.
