Please Google search: "Can Epstein-Barr virus manipulate genes". Epstein-Barr virus is what causes glandular fever (mononucleosis). This is what has wreaked havoc in my life for the last 41 years. Interestingly, I contracted it at the age of 16 also. I now call it "long mono" disease.

[@ME-br6lt]

I gave this video a thumbs down because it is a clickbait title of the video. The speaker does not say that you can heal the gut microbiome in just 1 day/24 hours - rather you need to do a variety of multiple things and factors which take TIME to heal the gut microbiome, not just 24 hours. If you make HONEST video titles, then i am sure you will get subscribers.

00:25 🌱 Fiber is crucial for gut health as it supports the gut barrier and reduces inflammation. 08:22 🥦 All plants contain fiber, which nourishes gut microbes and supports gut health. 10:52 🥔 Resistant starch, found in foods like potatoes, green bananas, and legumes, is beneficial for gut health. 16:35 🚦 Slowly introducing fiber-rich foods is key for individuals with IBS or IBD to avoid discomfort and gradually strengthen gut health. 21:24 🍽 Exclusion diets aren't necessary for IBS or IBD management; introducing fiber gradually can lead to symptom remission and improved gut health. 23:44 🍽 Diversity and abundance in diet are crucial for a healthy gut microbiome, as studies show restrictive diets lead to less healthy microbiomes. 27:09 🩺 Autoimmune and allergic conditions are consistently associated with dysbiosis, indicating a disrupted gut microbiome. 30:52 🧠 Lifestyle choices, including diet, sleep, exercise, and stress management, significantly influence gut health and microbiome composition. 39:45 🦠 SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) is characterized by an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, often leading to bloating, discomfort, and diarrhea. 46:35 💊 Rushing to treat SIBO with antibiotics may not be effective and could worsen the underlying dysbiosis issue. 47:03 🌱 Restoring a healthy gut microbiome requires building and empowering the beneficial bacteria over time through dietary changes, particularly by adding fiber-rich foods. 50:02 💩 Constipation, not SIBO, may be the underlying issue for some experiencing bloating and other digestive symptoms. Addressing bowel regularity rather than immediately resorting to antibiotics can often resolve these symptoms. 51:13 🚨 Diarrhea is a symptom, not a diagnosis, and can have various underlying causes, including IBS, SIBO, celiac disease, or inflammatory bowel disease. Proper diagnosis is essential before determining treatment. 52:18 💊 Antibiotics are not always the solution for gut issues like SIBO. Making an accurate diagnosis and treating the underlying cause rather than immediately resorting to medication is crucial for long-term gut health. 53:25 🍽 Fear of food restriction can exacerbate gut health issues. Reintroducing diverse foods, rather than eliminating them, can often be the solution to improving gut health and reducing symptoms. 54:17 🔄 Gut health is adaptable, and improvement is possible through gradual changes in diet and lifestyle. Just as with physical rehabilitation, consistent effort can lead to significant improvements in gut function and overall health. 58:31 🥤 Belching can result from factors like carbonated drinks, sipping through straws, or chewing gum. Awareness of these habits and addressing them can help reduce belching issues. 01:01:12 💨 Aeroasia, the repeated swallowing of air leading to excessive belching, may require specific treatments like speech therapy or low-dose antidepressants to break the cycle. 01:05:16 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 "Live well, be well" extends beyond individual health to fostering supportive family connections and meaningful human interactions, emphasizing the importance of social bonds for overall well-being. And now, here are the top 10 gut foods: Fruits 🍎: Rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, fruits promote gut health and aid digestion. Vegetables 🥦: High-fiber veggies like broccoli, kale, and spinach nourish gut bacteria and support overall digestive function. Whole Grains 🌾: Foods like oats, quinoa, and brown rice provide fiber to feed beneficial gut microbes. Legumes 🥜: Beans, lentils, and chickpeas are excellent sources of fiber and protein, supporting gut health. Nuts and Seeds 🌰: Almonds, chia seeds, and flaxseeds are packed with fiber and healthy fats, benefiting gut flora. Fermented Foods 🥗: Including yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi, fermented foods contain probiotics that promote a healthy balance of gut bacteria. Tempeh and Tofu 🥡: Plant-based sources of protein like tempeh and tofu also contain prebiotics, nourishing gut microbes. Herbs and Spices 🌿: Ginger, garlic, and turmeric possess anti-inflammatory properties and support digestive health. Seaweed 🌊: Rich in fiber and minerals, seaweed varieties like nori and kelp promote gut health and support a diverse microbiome. Dark Chocolate 🍫: In moderation, dark chocolate can provide antioxidants and prebiotics that benefit gut health. Remember, Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, author of "Fiber Fuelled," developed the F-GOALS acronym, which stands for: fruit and fermented foods; greens and grains; omega-3; aromatics; legumes; and seaweed, sulforaphane, and 'shrooms.

My family member was incredibly ill (eventually non-functional due to blood loss) with UC. We took all the fibre we could out of the diet and did a low fodmap diet, ate only homemade food, no processed food, no sugar, organic, no chemical additives. After 1 1/2 months no improvement. With a ton of fear and trepidation we decided to do the opposite. Switched to a high fibre diet, 35 different foods in a week, no processed food, no sugar, organic as much as possible. Family member was back to health in 6 weeks!

[@CaroAbebe]

When you said that you “switched to a high fibre diet” you had me worried for a moment, but as you’ve seen such excellent results I’m sure you started reintroducing fibre at an adequate pace. Edit: I do know that items on the low FODMAP list contain fibre.

[@joanramler7831]

Actually we didn’t really pace the addition of the fibre. We just dove in with an organic, super clean plant based diet. So meals like tofu, broccoli and rice, beans, salads, soups, etc. Always ensuring 35 different plant foods each week. We also made our own probiotic soy yogurt and added a 1/4 c of it to a 3 cup smoothie each morning (berries, papaya, banana, chia, hemp, flax, spinach, etc). The smoothies usually had 12-15 different plant foods in it, even though sometimes it was just a teaspoon of this or that. We added a slice of probiotic dill pickles, live probiotic sauerkraut, some miso and that kind of thing daily in small quantities. We were nervous as heck but it worked!

The part for me was where you explain about starting low and going slow on introduction of food. This was where I slipped up so many times before and abruptly cut that food out again completely. I am currently on this journey (was actually convinced I had a yeast overgrowth to begin with) but was cutting all my foods down thinking "why am I getting worse and yet eating less and less" I am now gradually, and I mean gradually introducing other foods and finding that I am able to eat them without them crippling me. The analogy you made about the dodgy knee really sums this up perfectly.

The amount of either false or so called causes and remedies make my approach to healing very difficult. I have yet to understand or have a diagnoses of why every 5 years or so, as my diet does not change that much and my activity is also good. I am athletic and happy and happily married.

I had an episode of SIBO in March 2020. I lost 40 lbs. I was vomiting every day. It smelled like sulphur. It was disgusting. I prayed about what to do because I couldn’t eat or drink ANYTHING. I slowly began eating boiled white potatoes and was able to tolerate it. All the meanwhile, my stomach burned. I continued because that’s all I could eat and I couldn’t go to the doctor because at that time it was next to impossible to even be seen by a doctor because of the COVID fear. I laid in bed in misery for a couple of months. I was 50 years old at the time. Within a few months I went back to working as an RN. Wearing a mask while nauseated was no joke. I wasn’t fearful of COVID. I was fearful of what I had. I continued boiling my potatoes and then I was able to include carrots, zucchini and squash. I was hungry all the time. I couldn’t eat any meat or anything that created an acid environment in my body. No meat, no chicken broth, no sugar. All those foods were like fire to my intestines. I couldn’t even eat vegetables with any sulphur in them like onions, garlic or broccoli. After a year I was able to eat more foods slowly but they had to be very soft with not much roughage, basically low residue. I stumbled across a study on an army doctor who treated all of his soldier patients that had stomach ulcers with potatoes. At that time there were rations and not a lot of food was available. They were ALL healed. I also found a study that explained how the components in potatoes would cause aptosis in cells. Apparently this caused the bad microbes to burst and eventually the person was healed after they bad microbes died. I just know this was all an answer to prayer. Praying for your healing 🙏🏼

What kind of diet has helped this?

[@AnneMB955]

I’ve heard so many different messages about the need for fibre. Some say it’s required for optimal digestion, others say animal fat instead is better and more gentle than fibre. I’m so confused about what is true. Great ideas in this interview. 👏🇦🇺

[@sectionalsofa]

As I understand it, based on other talks by Dr. B, a very messed up Microbiome, ironically, will not be able to handle all the fiber that will ultimately heal the gut. Therefore, fiber has to be increased VERY slowly, giving the gut time to build up the good microbes. But in the short run, for those with messed up guts, animal products may feel less challenging as this is more likely what those bad microbes have adapted to. Additionally, some folks have food sensitivities which need to be sorted out by an elimination diet. Carnivore, for example, is a strict elimination diet. BUT the real challenge is to gradually add back plant foods to see which is the culprit. It may be one or two plant foods but only those one or two and all others would only heal the gut. So moral is to go "low and slow" with fiber and if that doesn't work, do a dietician supervised elimination diet, gradually adding back healthy plant foods.

I can tell you this. When I started taking in more fiber and started walking everyday……. First I lost 25 pounds in 6 months and my chronic heartburn and acid reflux went away. Drink lots of water with your fiber rich foods.

[@joe1071]

This is so true. I’m an all in kind of guy, and when I started listening to Dr B I decided to full throttle the fiber. Holy cow. I was so bloated and gassy. Especially because I went fully throttle on one or two foods at a time, which was the biggest mistake. I learned that each plant food has a different type of fiber, and each feeds different microbes. A lot of one plant food means a lot of one specific fiber and overwhelms the gut because the one microbe isn’t grown and adjusted to it. If you don’t have sensitivities, you could probably start with SMALL amounts of lots of DIFFERENT plant foods at the same time, and this will likely be okay. If you have sensitivities, work on adding SMALL amounts of ONE plant food back at a time. Keep the small amount everyday for like 3 days to a week before increasing the amount or adding a new plant food. It’s a long slow game to play, but worth it when your gut is finally healthy and optimal

All these things can impact your gut tremendously. but what I find helps is regular walking or swimming, bike riding or gardening, working on interesting projects, eating healthily, I find meditating daily is a good one too. So many contributing factors when it comes to your gut health. Not just a healthy diet and exercise, so many things. Thank you for the interesting information.

The key is diagnosis, after an ER visit they said Acute Diverticulitis after C.T scan, lots of diarrhea so I walked away with 1 week of antibiotic. After 2 weeks finally got to see Gastro and still feeling slight pain she order another round of Ciprofloacin w/Metronidazole, which induces diarrhea, so after a week of fasting and introducing low fiber still have diarrhea, from meds?

I can empathise, I have DVT as well. Antibiotics kill the infection but also a lot of the “good guy” bacteria. I think we should be offered fecal transplants to fix the problem.

See Zoe Harcombe PhD for an alternative view about fiber. We all have individual DNA. Clearly some people with IBS or even IBD have had very much reduced symptoms of these conditions when they stopped consuming fiber. Ther is no dietary minmal requirement for fiber. Many people on carnivore diets seem to have perfectly normal bowel function and avoid constipation if they consume enough fat.

Can you please share anything on carnivore diet. Some with ibs issues follow it, and many people report being on it for years. What are the impacts on gut biome? Thanks.

the problem with the carnivore diet is that people tend to just throw back some foods, then get pain and problems, you have to micro dose like feeding a baby again when you have not eaten plants for a while. I ate a bag of edamame beans once, and nearly exploded. one bean. not 30. that sort of thing.

I went on keto/carnivore two months ago and my anxiety has reduced significantly, my long-term chronic digestive issues have totally disappeared and my inflammation has reduced.

Carnivore made me very sick. Three weeks on crazy carnivore diet non stop diarrhea. Thank God! I am no longer on carnivore. Not fully recovered yet my gut health is still not where it was before trying crazy carnivore. For anyone who is considering crazy carnivore make sure you are fully aware of the side effects.

[@dennisward43]

@@Virgo921 There are some people who rush into a diet without transitioning slowly. You can't just rush into carnivore and expect it to work wonders. I spent two years cutting out various carbs, starting with highly sugared food, especially ultra processed ones. Even so when I began going 80% carnivore a few months ago I had stomach issues at first for about 5 days. But the results since have been impressive. My anxiety levels have dropped significantly, the inflammation in my lower back has reduced a little and my chronic constipation ended several months whilst transitioning by cutting down on fibre and raisng my stomach acidity level. I love these side effects. Research is important. If you couldn't drive a car you wouldn't expect to be able to jump in one and start driving properly right away, so why should people expect to jump into carnivore and feel great from day one?

@@kj_H65f Good question. I believe that some plant food may be healthy for me (whether it is for others is up to them to decide) as long as it is in small amounts and not containing high levels of sugars and/or antinutrients. I do often go without any fibre at all sometimes depending on how I feel at the time. I also like to experiment from time to time to see if something agrees with my gut. Probiotics which contain good gut bacteria may also help the gut to crowd out the bad bacteria that most people have without realising it. So that is why I sometimes have a little sauerkraut as well as kefir and bio-yoghurt.
