    Brian & gut health conversations are appreciated as we continue to learn more about how food and exercise truly matters. Thank you 🙏🏼

    I’m roughly a half an hour into the podcast, but need to get to work and finish later. It’s great so far! I believe they’re killing us with modified foods and genetically engineered foods/supplements. God gave us perfect whole foods. We need to stick to them as much as possible and incorporate fermented foods for a gut-healthy boost!

    Thanks for this one Melissa!! Gut health/overall health - is something I've been striving for in my life for many years now. As mentioned many take that "health" turn when faced with illness or health failures - my goal has been to keep the good that I've got, for as long as I can!! I always appreciate the simplistic approach you have to living and eating well - thank you. I specifically wanted to commend you on your comments regarding WHO should be educating our children - and I was so refreshed to hear you say that parents have that duty, and ultimately should be the primary educator in our kids lives. Dr. Mayer "hit the nail on the head" when he said that the world is not getting better, and it's sadly so true. Here's to good health!!!

    I didn't listen to the podcast but read Melissa's blog post. Interesting: until recently I ate quite a bit of fiber in the form of real food (plants, fermented foods and drinks -- all homemade, grains, legumes, mostly organic, very occasional junk food, limited sugar, nothing artificial, no soda, no meds) and for decades I had had digestive issues which only kept getting worse and worse. I cut out dairy, grains and legumes first and started to feel a little better, but still not great. I'm on what is known is carnivore diet and for the first time in decades my digestive issues are gone and I'm feeling so much better overall. I miss my favorite plant foods and hope to eventually be able to bring them back, but for now it's meat only for me. I've decided that one can show me thousands of studies and research that "prove" how good fiber (or whatever) is for us, but if I eat something that doesn't make me feel good, I'll go with what my body tells me instead of "science". There's definitely a gut-brain connection, but everyone interprets it differently. "Carnivore" doctors are telling a different story, nobody can agree, plus we are all very different and some people thrive on a fiber-free diet. There's no one size fits all. Regarding stress: exploring mind-body connection has been tremendously helpful to me on top of the strict elimination diet. Nick Ortner (EFT), Dr. Kim D'Eramo and Dr. Joe Dispenza have helped me a lot. And dr. Gabor Maté, too.

      You said it right - everybody’s body is different and many thrive on a diet that would make someone else sick!

      I wonder if you don't suffer from toxicity and and "bad bugs", like me. Our bodies are having to deal with way more trash input (even on a whole food diet (hello pesticides and gmos etc) in addition to toxic city and municipal water) and as a result we are feeding the bacteria, parasites and viruses that naturally inhabit even a healthy body. Often in childhood our parents feed us endless sandwiches and pizza pops and then Tylenol and antibiotics for any issues. This breeds a bad gut environment. There we are in adulthood with an unbalanced gut and down the road of life we go and up come the health obstacles. Food intolerances abound. Gut issues abound. Mental issues abound. You know what can reset all this? Fasting. Fasting allows your body to focus solely on ridding the body of toxic buildup, disease, etc. Because it's not spending all its energy digesting food. Fasting is a miracle. It's true healing. Look up Tyler tolman, folks. Look up a good iridologist. Read books by Anthony Williams. You can heal without going on any fad diet.

    So true! I have been learning all of this through videos provided to customers by the wellness company that's been around for almost four decades, helping people learn about health and wellness and how to be healthier. That said, with the lack of nutrients in today's food, it is super important to be taking supplements from a reputable source that have products that are science-backed clinically proven to provide results which our Peak Performance has! I can resonate with this entire video!❤

    This really was a fantastic and educational podcast.. your guest speaker is so knowledgeable, and there was not one thing I disagreed with that he said... He has really done his homework through the years while working one on one with his patients and their symptoms or just learning about the current impacts in today's world... he understands how it's all linked together in one way or another... I hope he continues to keep educating people of his findings, and I hope one day you can bring him back again to share even more info on your podast... There's plenty to always talk about with our bodies and health, that's for sure. I hope we can see more like dividing the time into even longer segments per topic with more regards to soil/toxins, food choices, gut, mind, stress and how it all can relate together in how our body processes it positively or negatively... I think this podcast was AMAZING Melissa... Thankyou 👏 ❤... and Thankyou Dr. Emeran Mayer for your time and fantastic information.

    Hi Melissa! Thanks for being a constant inspiration. When I started watching your videos I only had hope to get some land back during the panini. Now I'm designing a Veggie patch, fruit tree garden is being planted and water source in the plot will be drilled next! Thanks for the inspiration and ideas you share with all of us!!! ❤❤

    Life has a lot of grey, so I was glad to hear you say to listen to other views. You have a lot to offer and I while I don't eat meat, I'm still learning. These Alzheimer specialist are WFPB (whole food plant based) and you obviously have a different diet. You can still learn from them and look at the studies and possibly take away and use what you feel is right for you.
    Have you heard of neurologists Dean Sherzai, and Ayesha Sherzai, they've spent decades studying neuro-degenerative disease as Co-Directors of the Alzheimer's Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Hospital. Loma Linda is the only Blue Zone in the U.S. where Alzheimer's is nearly non existent.

    just something that came to mind - seems like the brain of a plant generally lives in the soil/gut with the good microbes it needs (or doesn't and it becomes apparent in its growth) but our brains seem to have some distance between brain and gut/ proper microbes. wonder if that makes lack of proper gut health slower to see on the exterior.

      @katie7748 9 месяцев назад +2

      It doesn't have to be. And even when it is, you simply adjust your budget and priorities. Many families, even large ones, manage to do this. Baby steps can get you there 😊

      I wonder if for you this is a "limiting belief." It's true, some things are much more expensive, and I understand the stress that causes. But consider how expensive poor health is on you and your family. There is a cost to visiting doctors, traveling to buy prescription drugs, and the cost in time to do those things, and to be immunocompromised on top of it all. Perhaps try to start with a %50 healthy diet, and then increase 10% every couple of months. Encouragement to you. I'm sure it sounds daunting, but hang in there.

      @@venidamcdaniel1913 Very good point. I wonder if you can connect with local farmers who might have orchards? Buying in bulk and getting seconds might be an option and you can freeze things yourself. I used to do this with peaches. Bought a box of "seconds" (i.e. bruised), sliced them up, froze them on cookie sheets, and then bagged them up. We are market gardeners here in Northern Minnesota, but even so, our diet is mostly meat-based and we don't agree that plant-based is the way to go. But that's our opinion and we know others don't share it. We do eat a fair amount of vegetables in the summer because of the harvest. Blessings to you today.
