How Loneliness Can Destroy Your Gut Health with Dr. Monisha Bhanote | EP 329
We hear that 90% of the immune system lives in the gut - but what happens if your diet destroys that gut? Does it then destroy the immune system? It’s a worthwhile question to ask and with all of the chemicals in our house, our car, our water and our food, it’s never been more important to get ahead of the problems, fix your gut and make a goal of dying quietly in your sleep at a really old age (instead of dying slowly for 30 years full of medication). Gut health and diets that improve diversity is the theme of this episode. In this episode we discussed:How the real pandemic is lonelinessThe sad truth about western culture and how we treat our elderlyNursing homes and the ‘waiting to die phase’How your cells end up being angry-cells The microbiome diversity or lack of diversity that leads to inflammationThe neurotransmitters that are produced in the gut Health and wellness people look younger than everyone elseGood food is nature’s skincareHow the hormone hierarchy in your body can be ruined by your diet Fermented food - which foods to eat to heal your gut***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

Debunking Netflix’s Vegan Doco: You Are What You Eat | EP 327
Is this documentary propaganda or good science? You Are What You Eat is Netflix’s latest series about how plant based and vegan diets are superior to the natural human diet, that being omnivore - plants and meat. There is a lot of controversial stuff in the TV series and throughout this episode I’ll show you how to see the forest for the trees as much of the poor data is in fact presented right there on screen but it’s packaged in a way that makes you think it’s all fine and dandy. There’s a lot to consider here and so I want you to listen to this episode with a critical mind and understand that everyone has an agenda.. Or at least those that have enough resources to get something on Netflix do. On this episode we talked about:Why the length of a study mattersThe difference between good science and bad science The importance of vitamin B12 to vegansWhy branding farmers as all the same is a bad ideaIdentifying vegan/plant based propaganda Vegan diets also lead to copious amounts of animal death The good things about publicly discussing diet Knowing who is funding the studies and who is owned by whoIs vegan a complete, natural diet? How biased filming making is misleading the western worldWhy fake meat is NOT a health food Farmers are not always in control of their own farms (Big Ag owns them)Bacterial resistance in cattle Veganism is not going to save the Amazon rainforest How many animals die when you harvest avocados How to see bad science The Study***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?
