Great interview with Ashok! I’ve been using the Gupta Program for about 4 months now and have seen a marked improvement in my digestion. The daily Guptasize Meditations have also improved my mood and I feel more calm and centered. This program, along with the excellent guidance of you, Lindsey Parsons, is helping move me towards better gut health!
Thanks Janet!! I've been using it too to address mental aspects of SIBO and am finding it really helpful. Did the daily Guptacize this morning for the first time and was so relaxed I was bummed when it ended!
It does both. So it firms up stool and it also helps people with incomplete evacuation to have more complete bowel movements. But I recommend lower dose butyrate on a more infrequent basis for that (if someone is constipated). Bajka, B., Clarke, J., Topping, D., Cobiac, L., Abeywardena, M., & Patten, G. (2010). Butyrylated starch increases large bowel butyrate levels and lowers colonic smooth muscle contractility in rats. Nutrition research, 30 6, 427-34 . doi.org/10.1016/j.nutres.2010.06.003.
Do we have a comparison of breast milk from mothers on: Animal based vs Carnivore vs RAW CARNIVORE vs High fat raw Carnivore vs Raw A2 milk ( in combination with and without the above ) vs Vegan vs Vegetarian vs Plant based vs Standard American Diet?
Very informative podcast. Her story is my story to a T! Including all of the long Covid and IMO symptoms. I went to the ER several times and was gaslit and told that it was all in my head and they tried to put me on anxiety medication when I knew different. That was two years ago now and I am still suffering. The only problem is, she was able to resolve her issues and I still have issues. I know that you can’t give up on yourself but out here on the East Coast no one and I mean, no one knows any of this information nor do they care to learn it! It’s like OK, what do I do now? I am literally all but bedridden at this point praying for someone to help me. I don’t need to read anymore or listen to someone else’s story or figure this out for myself. I just need someone that I can physically go to and talk to in person that can help me! 🥺
Do not FMT..make your yoghurt..get the Smart gut book…if that doesnt work go to Thailand and do Ozone therapy…it will kill all that bad bacteria that is bad in your gut..FMT will not fix anything
I'm about to say something that may have never been said before: Dr. O' Bryan said diseases are caused by excess inflammation -- correct! But the bigger question is: What causes excess in inflammation? This is how I would simplify it: Inflammation is the root of all evil because no one really knows what it means! Our bodies are run by proteins -- is it not? Excess inflammation is caused by [corrupted] proteins throughout the body, thus causing a rise in insulin and a decrease in potassium, that guides insulin! This is the sum total that explains ALL CHRONIC DISEASES 🙏🏿⚔️ Key words: - Corrupted proteins - Insulin - Potassium
Part II of II Sorry, but spinach is not for human consumption -- it's for rabbits! Haven't you heard of Sally Norton and the very high oxalates in spinach and almond flour causing her vulvodynia? Or haven't you heard about Jill Harris LPN [kidney stone] diet?
I used to take calcium citrate every morning when I was eating spinach to handle the oxalates, but not everyone has an issue with them. There are 3 markers of oxalates on the organic acids test and usually it's people with high levels of candida that show up with high oxalic acid. Lots of healthy foods have oxalates, unfortunately.
Part I of II Yes, I guess I was a Parkinson's candidate 30 years ago -- that's when my stool was rock hard because of chronic constipation. I however managed to fix that constipation by taking vitamin B1 (50mg) for just 4 days 😮😮😮. Fiber did not fix it -- but a simple B vitamin 🤔
LIndsey why does this not have more views? I have watched hundreds of videos on these topics, and your info is very good...not enough people are willing to simply stop eating gluten and milk products and see what happens...it cost nothing and is easy to do! Should be everyone's first step to healing the gut!
Part III of IV Did I hear you talk about hydroxyapatite? Stop 🛑 it! Now you're going to hate me! I looked up nano hydroxyapatite [Nano-HA], and my conclusion is to not use it. Yes, it may make your teeth look and feel better, but that's where the benefits ends! In theory, it sounds good. Used by NASA for astronauts, yes. The problem is this product is synthetic, not approved by the FDA and banned by the European union because of legitimate health concerns. I learned years ago, anything that says "nano" should always be treated with caution. Think about it, hydroxyapatite is a very hard substance, that has been powdered down to nanoparticles. It is still a hard substance, whether in the form of a rock, or nano particles. These particles can and will get lodged in organs and tissues and may cause irreversible damage. I think fluoride is very bad, but I think Nano-HA is even worse. Here is something (else) I read a few years ago: Hydroxyapatite is a mineral complex derived from cow bones. In hydroxyapatite, calcium is bound with phosphorus. (This is the principal form of calcium storage in bone.) That sounds great for bone health, but there’s a catch. When you consume calcium, the calcium is freed from whatever substance it’s bound with. So in the case of hydroxyapatite, the calcium is separated from the phosphorus before either is absorbed. Unfortunately, this means you absorb more phosphorus than you ideally should. Research shows too much dietary phosphorus can be a risk factor for cardiovascular and kidney diseases. What’s more, one study found the risk of fractures increased by 9% for every 100 mg of phosphorus intake. That’s concerning, especially as the general population is already consuming more than enough phosphorus in processed foods and food additives.
Did I hear you say your partner has sleep apnea? Not any more 🙏🏿 I had sleep apnea probably for decades, but I was officially diagnosed 9 years ago! The literature about what causes sleep apnea -- I ignore! I'll tell you what I believe causes it -- and the solution! Ever heard of hypertension? Of course! That's systemic hypertension (especially primarily and of secondary cause.) But what about pulmonary hypertension? This hypertension is caused by dysfunction of arteries to the lungs and veins going back to the heart, and the blood that goes through it. Not to bore you, sleep apnea is a mucus problem -- caused by bacterial infested blood, due to the beginning, subtle stage of pulmonary hypertension! You won't read that anywhere -- I made it up!!! I bet your partner's loud snoring will disappear in 24 hours, if they do this! Do you want to know what THIS is?
I bet you sleep in separate rooms? Not anymore! Yes, cigarettes also make blood dirty, creating the need for more mucus! So here is what I used to stop the snoring in 24 hours: RNA/DNA supplement (from Solgar) This is made from brewer's yeast, which contains B vitamins. B vitamins help make and rejuvenate blood, reducing bacteria and mucus. That's why it works so well. What I also have been using recently, which seems to tackle sleep apnea itself, is a lung herb called Mullein. This herb helps rejuvenate the blood vessels of the lungs, and make breathing easier and smoother during sleep. I use: Mullein tincture, by Wise Woman Herbals. Let me know if it worked!
@@highdeserthealth congratulations 🎉🎉🎉👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Solgar RNA/DNA is not just about "high dose B vitamins". You're way to smart not to know that! Furthermore, high dose B vitamins is dangerous for the body, just as any synthetic high dose vitamin is dangerous for any body 🙏🏿
Days if you're at the right dose. I usually say increase by one pill a day (with separate meals) and double up if necessary until you see the results (firmer stool that is). Other types of results may take longer.
Listen to episodes 15 and 54 for more details. Or set up a breakthrough session with me: calendly.com/highdeserthealth/30-minute-breakthrough-session-by-phone-or-vi-clone
Part III of III Guest Jenn Trepeck briefly spoke about soluble fiber. Most people only talk about fiber without distinguishing between soluble and insoluble. If you have IBS, forget about insoluble, because IBS means your digestive tract is inflamed, and insoluble fiber will scrub it and make it more inflamed. Like she said, soluble fiber, which dissolves in water and acts as a prebiotic, is the way! She said get it from vegetables. But I know a specific soluble fiber I use: Heather's Tummy Fiber [made from organic acacia senegal is the way, the truth and the light]!
Are you tired of these endless recommendations? But one day, I will tell you an ancient secret the Southern Chinese use -- that I also use -- to forge... vibrance 🤲🏿 health 💪🏿and youthfulness 🙏🏿
Part II of III I love the ways of the Chinese culture, and they know it! I'm probably the only Westerner who eats the forbidden rice, a.k.a. black rice. I also eat adzuki beans with it. Guess what? I've been trying to gain weight! I've lost 10 pounds instead, probably because of this black rice and adzuki beans 😮😮😮 Most food only have 2 or 3 grams of fiber per serving. Not adzuki beans. It has 12.7 grams of fiber per serving 😮😮😮😮. It also has 1254mg of potassium per serving 😮😮😮😲 It also has 19.87 grams of protein per serving 😮😮😮 No wonder I lost 10 pounds in 4 weeks! And don't get me started about the benefits of the forbidden rice 🌾
interesting. I have chronic Lyme and began antibiotics in February. Stopped after 2 weeks bc of the terrible S/E. In 2 short weeks my gut was wrecked. I did everything in my arsenal that I knew to do. Probiotics, etc etc. Was unable to evacuate without enemas. Very constipated. Motility shot. Came across Tributyrin. Started it and within 72 had my first spontaneous perfectly formed BM in 3 mos.....
That's great! I normally don't recommend tributryin for constipated people unless they tell me they have a sense of incomplete evacuation, in which case I might recommend a low dose one every few days. Glad it worked for you!
Listening from France, listening to this ex md is super cool the way he talks is super structured and he’s got a nice voice could listen to this for the whole day x)
You'd definitely want to get a low-carb elemental diet (Dr. Ruscio has some offerings like that), but did you mean you have SIFO in addition to SIBO? If only SIFO, then elemental diet isn't the best choice.
They advise to stay away from grains most of the time and mention rice is tolerated but what about quinoa and amaranth those are healthy grains right ?
I consider those good choices as gluten-free grains. In general, if you eat tons of something, and have gut issues, then you may develop a sensitivity to it. So the best bet is alternating foods as much as possible.
there are loads of research out there and most of the research in their conclusion, often say, more research is needed. when taking Sodium Butyrate SB many people state they experience changed bowl movement and differing of pain levels, energy levels and brain activity. Hard research indicates that SB can be effective and each of us will experience differing effects over a 12+ week period for SIBO and LG. Good luck with your marketing style, yes, I to am sceptical and using SB which I think may be working internally. Other issues are fodmap, mast cell issues, sibo which you mentioned and others.
I think that would be a good summary. But you have to look at the Donor Results spreadsheet to get a more nuanced view: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E9TFLqh9I2ZZhDSvGljyhukU-71fFMmJ/edit#gid=174339095
If your glucose is elevated because of dysbiosis that involves too much proteobacteria, which leads to a leaky colon and more LPS produced and sent into circulation, creating inflammation, then yes, tributyrin would be a good choice. A sign of this might be loose stool.
Sorry but Dr. Minkoff didn't give his exact protocol in the recording and I'm sure you'd need to set up an appointment with him to get it. I use a different protocol for H pylori and I'd be happy to work with you using that if you're interested. You can set up a free, 30-minute breakthrough session here to see if you would be interested in working with me: calendly.com/highdeserthealth/30-minute-breakthrough-session-by-phone-or-vi-clone
It breaks my heart that people don't know calcium supplements are dangerous! And a leading cause of heart disease. Calcium supplements are not much more than cement or limestone turned into fine powder. Furthermore, calcium is part of the sympathetic nervous system while magnesium is a part of the parasympathetic nervous system. In other words, calcium keeps you awake -- no wonder you can't sleep. So many people are supplementing the wrong way that it would have been better if they took no supplements at all🙏🏿 I bet you a dollar the vitamin K2 you are taking is in the cis form, which is inactive and dangerous. Vitamin K2 whether MK7 or MK4 must be in the trans isoform -- the biological active form. You are so stressed out -- i can hear it. You may benefit from vagal nerve stimulation. The best and most convenient product for this i see on the market is: VeRelief
I really hate seeing my comments being hidden! You can hide this one though. I know your pride won't let you, but I'll still offer one final chance. People are suffering, and they need our help!
Unfortunately, this seems to be a new thing RU-vid is doing. I have nothing to do with it. My guest in the last podcast also noted his comments were being hidden. But it's not me hiding them.
