#532: Dr Steven Gundry on The Gut-Brain Paradox: Improve Your Mood, Clear Brain Fog, and Reverse Disease by Healing Your Microbiome!
Dr Gundry is a four-time New York Times bestselling author and Founder of the telemedicine clinic GundryHealth.com. His YouTube channel has more than 780k subscribers with more than 70 million views and his books have sold more than 2.2 million copies in his Plant Paradox series and his newsletter has 1.5 million subscribers. He is also the host of the Dr. Gundry Podcast with nearly a quarter of a million monthly listens. His new book The Gut-Brain Paradox: Improve Your Mood, Clear Brain Fog, and Reverse Disease by Healing Your Microbiome flips the traditional view of the gut/brain axis on its head, revealing how our gut microbiome is driving our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and our mental, emotional, and neuronal health - and he shows us how to heal our microbiomes to take back control of our minds. In his previous bestselling books, Dr. Gundry taught readers how to reverse disease and improve health and well-being by preventing and repairing leaky gut. In The Gut-Brain Paradox, he delves far more deeply into the mysterious and long misunderstood world of the human microbiome. “The road to health is paved with good intestines” Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s show: · The microbiome has a significant influence on mental health. · Leaky gut can lead to anxiety and depression. · Stress and viruses can cause leaky gut. · Eating disorders are linked to an addictive microbiome. · Healing the blood-brain barrier is crucial for mental health. · Gut health is connected to neurodegenerative diseases. · Genetics play a small role in microbiome composition. · And much more.

Exploring The Connection Between Physical Health and Spiritual Awakening with Brian Keane (The Jay Campbell Podcast)
A beautiful conversation with Jay Campbell on his podcast. As the title suggests, this is a little different to normal; so hopefully you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it. You can subscribe to Jay's show here. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0ThUDwVZV4MU9k5yydKdnl _____________________________________________________ In this episode, Jay interviews Brian Keane, an online fitness coach and certified nutritionist who has written three bestselling books, launched a #1 ranked podcast, and run ultramarathons in the world’s most grueling locations, including the Saharan desert and Arctic. They cover a variety of topics related to the connection between physical health and one’s ability to elevate their consciousness. Their conversation ranges from the dangers of hyper-palatable processed foods to the difference between emotional eating and consumption driven by true physiological need. Tune in if you want to discover how to (finally) break free from a cycle of unhealthy habits or if you want to gain a better understanding of how optimizing your physical fitness can help you deepen your spiritual practice and raise your vibration. “I think there's a crossover with fitness and spirituality. Everything is difficult in the beginning, messy in the middle, and beautiful at the end.” – Brian Keane What You'll Learn From This Episode: • The Dangers Of Hyper-Palatable, Processed Foods – Modern food is engineered to be addictive and unhealthy. Learn how food scientists are creating products that promote overeating, and how marketers are making them an ever-present temptation. • Social & Familial Influences On Diet – Cultural “norms” can also lead to unhealthy eating habits, and sometimes it’s those closest to us who are holding us back. Learn how to navigate tricky situations and make healthier food choices, no matter what. • Physical Health As A Foundation For Spirituality – A healthy physical body is essential for spiritual growth. You can’t effectively pursue spirituality when you’re physically unwell, so use physical fitness as a gateway to deeper spiritual experiences. • The Role Of Self-love In Health – Social media lures many people into a comparison trap, which can prevent them from achieving their full potential. Engage in a healthier discourse with your inner self, and watch your physical and spiritual growth take off. • Personal Experiences With Plant-Based Medicine – Jay and Brian both share personal stories of using plant-based medicine to deal with anxiety and trauma and unlock a more balanced and connected version of themselves. Key Moments In This Conversation 00:01:24 – Brian’s thoughts on the outlook for humanity 00:10:24 – How people fall prey to an unhealthy eating spiral 00:22:29 – Why you can’t afford NOT to eat quality food 00:27:29 – Why a lack of self love and trust results in anxiety 00:31:55 – Your spirit can’t elevate if your physical vessel is weak 00:41:37 – How your thoughts/actions interact with the universe 00:47:03 – Brian’s “Dark night of the soul” story 00:56:20 – Personal experiences with plant-based medicine 01:02:43 – Closing thoughts and Brian’s resources
