I recently bought milk kefir grains and having maybe 1/4 C kefir daily. Even with this small amount, I was surprised to realize I was less tired and also slept better at night. I am prediabetic and nearly 70. I made this connection and have just had it confirmed by your video. I think I will be doing this the rest of my life (I am slowly raising the amount of kefir I can stand haha). Thank you!
10:40 you’re absolutely right, I ignored my fatigue for so long. This is very helpful. BTW I was treated for SIBO a year ago, and had longstanding severe vitamin and iron deficiency even though I was regularly taking multivitamins. I’m on my gut healing journey now.
Hi Dr. Kim, I hope you can clarify a few things for me please!!! I’m a 58 yrs woman ( post menopause). Now there are some confusing and contradictory info out there and I’m conflicted. First you have Dr Mindy who says to vary your fasts and you can exercise during fasted state. You have others who say menopausal women shouldn’t fast or at max 14 - 15hrs and definitely no exercise during fasted state. You have Dr Beth Westie who says fasts shouldn’t be done every day And when done should be supported with small snacks( 100 cal) spread throughout and big no for fasted workouts. You have Dr Mary Claire Havar who fasts every day 16:8 and works out during the fasted period. Why is there so much conflicting info I don’t want to mess with my hormones! Would you be so kind and look into these others and explain please 🙏🏻 thank you
I completely understand, and sympathize with the confusion over all that conflicting and contradictory information. I think the problem arises when people get way too dogmatic about their particular approach, and why it's better than other approaches. My own standpoint is that everyone is individual, and what works for one person may not necessarily work for another person. But that doesn't always make it easy to know what to do, so I completely get where you're coming from! I think this is a more complex issue than I can handle in a comment...but I also think this would be an EXCELLENT topic for a future video, so I'm adding it to my list right now. Thanks so much for watching and for asking this question. I can see that you're doing your best to research the right way to go with this. Stay tuned! ❤
Boost and ensure and glucerna are all filled with harmful ingredients .... your energy is coming from THOSE harmful sugars! Give that some thought. Silk smooth yogurt is the perfect base for a smoothy, while adding whole eggsand adding frozen avacado and blueberries into the blender. I also add a spoonful of chia seeds to the mix. It is a beautiful and healthy way to break a fast as a protein bang for your buck! Enjoy.
Thank you I really appreciate this video all the way from Papua New Guinea. This helps me understand my recent feelings of ongoing fatigue. Much appreciated.
Thank you. Yes, I have been hearing more about the importance of gut health and I am always fatigue. I will be looking for that list of Probiotics supplements. Thank you
I drastically changed my diet after many years of misery which I though was normal - tiredness, non-sleeping, body pain, depression. the over all feeling of FUCK.... so.. 1 lemon, 1 spoon of flax, ground halal beef heart - fill up all day on meat, flax goes with first meal and mulch it well, split the lemon thru the day. I am now a mountain of energy. sleep like a baby, no body pain, and have a general heavenly bliss. Takes two days. YOU WILL FEEL TERRIBLE after changing to this diet. Your body is addicted to sugar and other bad foods. Don't break. DAY THREE YOU WILL FEEL AMAZING.... try not to fall off the wagon too much. I have added mushrooms, garlic to diet without negative effect..... COOKING - my over goes 1-10 and I generally cook everything on 4 can do half your lemon juices into pan, with garlic to soften a little, and then add mushrooms to cook together a little... mixing in meat .. after a short bit you'll have liquid that is almost a gravy.... wanna boil 90% of that sauce away making food taste amaze.
I am extremely tired all day everyday. I do have digestive issues as well. I often have acid reflux and even vomiting because I feel nauseous a lot. Sometimes I wonder if being vegetarian is effecting me in a bad way too (lack of protein) but I’ve been veg my entire life and can’t even handle the thought of eating meat. I’ve been trying to eat more eggs though.
All the good bacteria in fermented food you buy from the store is dead already. In fact, many vegetables and fruits we buy lack vitamins and nutrients due to depleted overfertilized soils. Industrial meat is full with antibiotics and other chemicals. Those are the real reasons for a disturbed gut environment.
I drink kefir every morning to break my fast and yes bloodwork was fine, walk everyday, clean eating, etc. Im always sluggish after meals but my doctor says I’m fine🤦🏻♀️ maybe I’m just really really good at naps 😂
Oh yes, I’ve heard about the connection between gut Microbiome and fatigue! I have been fighting c. diff for 8 months. As a result I am listening to a lot of videos and doing a lot of research. The gut microbiome comes up a lot. I have subscribed to your channel and would love to learn more. Thanks for the great info so far!
I can’t even get out of bed ! I have diabetes and chronic pain! I only 66 and the doctor gets me tested low b vitamins and I take them! I just don’t have any energy! 😅

Gut health is the best health ! No, it is health itself. Love you doctor. !
Agree! Thanks so much for watching! ❤️

Yes but you explain this very beautifully. Is gum arabic good as prebiotic?
I always knew my health issues came from my gut. I need a good pre/probiotic recommendation. Too many to choose from 😮
