SIX TOOLS To OPTIMIZE Your HORMONES For Holistic Health: Kyle Gillett, MD | Rich Roll Podcast

[@berhanemesfin2379]

The guy who is doing the interview is an amazing gentleman. Giving his guest all the time he needs to express himself.

[@bayareamacaddict]

Kyle Gillett has an amazing ability to recall information and articulate medical science.

[@StephaniePintas]

Thanks Rich, for your awesome interviewing skills as always and breaking down the complex for the audience. I am a 4th year medical student at UCLA and was disappointed by many of Dr. Gillett's answers - he seemed to sidestep many of your pointed questions about hormone health and when he did answer, he either used extremely specific examples or went on an unrelated tangent. His answers were often simplified in the beginning of the podcast without providing actionable steps for folks (other than a few prescription medications he recommended and did not really delve into specific lifestyle changes). Then later on, when talking about hormones produced by the adrenal gland, hypothalamus and pituitary gland he over-complicated the matter to the point where Rich at one point said "I understood 30% of that sentence" - a doctor should be knowledgeable AND able to break down complex concepts for their listeners. Specifically, he could have gotten more in depth on PCOS pathology as an example, which may affect up to 20% of reproductive age females. He failed to discuss that PCOS and insulin resistance go hand-in-hand (even in lean females). Insulin resistance and subsequent high insulin levels causes excess ovarian and adrenal androgen section while also decreasing sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) synthesis by the liver (SHBG is what “binds up” testosterone in circulation, thus with less SHBG you have more testosterone circulating through the body). This phenomenon is further exacerbated for overweight / obese females. We used to believe fat was "metabolically inactive" and now know that is not the case - carrying excess weight contributes to insulin resistance, and specifically excess abdominal fat produces excess testosterone. It is believed that this excess testosterone or “hyperandrogenism” (in addition to testosterone produced by the adrenal gland and in the ovaries) contributes to the pathogenesis of PCOS. In a complex interplay, high testosterone levels in these individuals worsen metabolic syndrome / propensity for insulin resistance. I was disappointed to hear the only thing he really mentioned for PCOS was a “low carb diet” whereas studies have shown the benefit of weight loss (possibly with a time-restricted approach like 14 hour of fasting and 10 hours of feeding), exercise and medications like Metformin. Hopefully a future episode may focus specifically on women’s hormone health as it is a complex and nuanced topic.

[@chiyerano]

It seems he was just giving general information for the layman to understand while being mindful of the time constraints or time limitations of the interview.

[@wendyholmes1848]

Thank you! I am not a doctor and I am not in med school so I really don't know what was missed in this conversation. But I felt like there was a bunch of stuff missing. So it is helpful to hear what you had to say. I agree that Rich Roll should have a woman doctor talking about women's hormones. Rich is a great interviewer and I love listening to him. But wouldn't it be cool if he brought his wife on for this conversation! Like that would be such an awesome breaking of the mold.

[@averiemaddox6493]

Rich, I am so thankful you asked him about weight loss for individuals who have diss regulated hormones. After undergoing chemo my body went into premature menopause and it’s never returned to its normal state. I have tried everything, and I mean everything. I am plant-based but I’m also a foodie. I can’t imagine going through the rest of my life on a calorie restriction diet. I finally went to a specialist and had blood test done. My estrogen is nonexistent. My testosterone is almost nonexistent. This explains so much for me Dash why I’ve been exhausted and have had brain fog, and why I can’t lose weight and experience constant migraine headaches. For me, balancing hormones is crucial. I’m not diabetic nor do i have insulin resistance. I’m just stuck in a rut. I have decided to go on bio identical hormones. To me, the risk is worth it. I’m tired of being miserable.

[@deel2435]

I know you were writing to Rich and I hope he sees your comment, replies. I just wanted to say going through menopause isn't a joke for a lot of us. It's destabilising and impacts so many parts of our daily living. There's some good resources now, from women who are science based (practising Drs) who talk about menopause. There's one specifically that I've found helpful and reassuring and she breaks down the concerns I had with HRT. I can share her YT channel with you if you like (I don't want to presume anything, you may very well be very happy with everything you're reading, learning and receiving advice about now). I hope your journey through cancer has ended. And, that you're starting to feel better now. Take care and best of luck on goals.

[@pooriakoleyni]

Such a good marketing session for this doctor, ask him if he has published any if his methods in any médical journal.

[@sharonisabelle8029]

I love that you addressed the term "intuitive" eating. I've described my eating as intuitive for 15+ years now but when I started reading the intuitive book I realized that I've defined it differently. For me intuitive eating was my goal based on some overall boundaries. So basically I eat when and what I want but I also have a framework that I also pay attention to. Like sometimes I'm not eating enough fruit and vegetables so I don't freak out but I do force myself back into eating more fruits and vegetables even if it's not what I am craving.

[@msdaus14]

[@NancyPenaBrink]

I agree with Dr Gillette. Our Primary doctor should be our best health ally. Perhaps you can work with other doctors and create a training program that when completed can earn a Certificate that can bring them more prestige and clients who are looking for a well informed health practitioner like a good Functional Medicine, Intuitive Medicine, Holistic Medicine doctor.

[@raebarclay332]

Rich...i appreciate so many of your guests and life-changing info. i'm about 20 minutes into the interview and am noticing that you're doing most of the talking...while i appreciate your input i 'm watching the vid to learn from this very well qualified person. thank goodness for the transcript feature.

[@rosiek649]

Rich has questions for himself he has his own health questions so don’t forget it’s not all about us but he needs to get his questions answered too. His questions were valid in this session. I think also this Dr is new to his podcast so Rich has to get a feel for him first because he doesn’t know what he can offer yet that is his knowledge level. Once interviewers know they take a step back and let them talk more but in the beginning you lead them to get them to talk more.

[@glancegraphicdesign3640]

Rae “you’re watching the vid to learn from this very well qualified person” - but also keep in mind you have access to this information because another well qualified person in the art of interviewing is doing his thing. Creating space, asking the right questions, managing the flow, reiterating content, adding dynamic moments - all holds importance - including the host adding extra dialogue when necessary (although you may not think so).

[@wallyrbc]

I found that the guest was given lots of airtime, personally.

Rich, Pistachios are rich in melatonin. Each gram ( about 1.5 pistachios) has 200 micrograms of melatonin. Strange that the guest didn't know this.

Be both and eat your organs(grassfed) and be a vegetarian.everything is a balance.be your own doctor and nvr listen to ppl that know nothing about nutrition.

[@anne-louisegoldie]

As a woman in the UK, the knowledge and care around menopause is woeful. Women usually have to battle to get HRT and when they finally get it, it's pretty much 'one size fits all', and if it doesn't work all the same way then you have to stop it (because it's 'so dangerous' ). Maybe wealthy people can pay privately for these panels of detailed tests, the ones that really tell you what's going on and what needs addressed, but on the NHS it's hard to get basic oestradiol and testosterone checked, and only if you keep asking. Things are slowly improving because women are educating themselves and not tolerating being fobbed off the way we were before, but we're way behind what's already possible for optimizing menopause health. Functional medicine in primary care has to be the next step 💛xx

[@Luna_and_Miles]

This is sadly true, but to a lesser extent, in the U.S. As a post-menopausal woman of 60, I have struggled since pre-menopause, which is now spanning nearly 8 years total from 'pre' to 'post', to get the right kind of hormonal support. My doctors have been more or less useless, and I've had to educate myself online.

[@anne-louisegoldie]

@@Luna_and_Miles I'm so glad that you persisted to get what you needed 💛 It shouldn't be a struggle, body-identical hormones aren't expensive to make, so it isn't that. Keep looking after yourself 💛🤗xx

Intuitive eating. It' sounds nice but def complicated. In various stages of life when on extreme diets or in college drinking a lot....I found the only thing I wanted to eat ever was anything with sugar and tons of it. If I followed my intuition I'd be dead by now. I found personally that once I got more balanced stopped yo yoing and significantly reduced drinking I had far far greater ability to control my eating and not succumb to cravings or the urge to overeat. I DO believe in intuitive eating a lot but also believe this only works when you regain some semblance of balance

@@calista1280 even so, this is likely not covered by any insurance plan. So out of pocket $5400/year is WAY out of the budget for 90% of people. So many things in the wellness industry are just way above a reasonable price point to make any difference on the population level of health.

I listen to a lot of your podcasts, but this one was frustrating. Your guest didn't actually answer your questions a lot of the time, as in he didn't relate the many biochemical details he gave back to hormone health as a whole. I have a PhD in biochemistry and immunology so I was able to follow some of it, but the guest simply didn't pull the strands together. So I'm not sure how someone without biochemistry knowledge would have assimilated all the detail he gave. I found Dr Gillett to be almost robotic in his style. Despite his clearly superior knowledge, he is not the kind of doctor I would want to have. I wonder how many people could actually afford to access this kind of medicine.

Sorry Rich! As soon as he started talking about raising cattle and other farm animals, I had a tune out! I don't trust anyone who can raise an animal and then slaughter it!

[@K3Bear11]

Sounds like a nice guy....but I too had to stop watching when I heard he raised and butchered animals. I feel way too strongly about listening to things that are not in alignment with my values. I love Rich....but this is just too personal for me.

So does he take all those supplements because he’s a carnivore? I have a hard time taking serious a physician who has bad practices. I remember just getting out of nursing school and worked with an oncologist who smoked.

[@calista1280]

I would guess it's because our Farmlands are depleted of nutrients. Then that does not qualify as a "bad" practice.

[@sschreck08]

What do you expect from someone who grew up in Arkansas and still lives there. It's animal farm country over there, sadly. It's no wonder he said there are "no bad foods".

[@poerava]

You sound like you think a plant based diet is the optimal diet for humans? Let me know which glorified surveys (epidemiology) you base your findings in. Animal based foods are the optimal diet for humans. Sorry about that.

[@sschreck08]

@@poerava You show me studies that show that eating meat is optimal! Lol. There is plenty of science indicating that whole food plant-based diets are optimal. Do your own homework.

[@poerava]

@@sschreck08 I see science isn’t your forte. Allow me to educate you on the topic. Epidemiology = non causative findings. Only correlation. So how do we find out that certain diets are better for humans? Answer: Randomised, double blind controlled trials that are controlled well, designed well and conducted in environments where we can conclusively show that the findings are more than weak association (which all nutritional epidemiology science is). The only way to do this, is to lock up people who have identical genetics in facilities where we can monitor everything they do and consume and control what food, activities and nutritional habits they experience. Sounds doable? No. It’s not. That would be unethical. We therefore have diddly squat science on nutrition that is worth its salt. So you don’t know and I don’t know. Ok where to from here. We depend upon other fields of sciences to induct and experiment with for what is optimal. So what is on the meat eaters side? 4.5 million years of primary consuming meat, with the capacity to digest plants when we don’t have access to animals is the evidence we depend on, as well as carbon isotope testing which shows this is what we ate, archaeology, also the mechanics of our gut that has evolved over time. What’s on the vegan side? A whole lot of epidemiology BS which send surveys to people asking ‘how much meat have you eaten last year? Ok. Do you have cancer? Ahhhhhh. See. Correlation with cancer and meat. This is without asking if they smoke, drink, have other issues, genetic dispositions to certain disease, where they live, their level of education, sociodemographic segment etc. Basically a load of BS paid for by big pharma and big agri who know how to make people sick and sell medications to help them (or supplement their deficiencies).

frustrating,why is he not answering questions

[@chiyerano]

I thought he was answering questions just in a way that will help the layman understand it better and being mindful of time limitations of the interview.

[@DJSTOEK]

❤❤❤

[@samuelstephens992]

I believe this young doctor needs a bit more practice. I think time will positively mold his future.

[@Ahmed-px1zf]

I hope he is advising this exercise routine to a strong healthy young adult. Otherwise, I think he is far away from reality. If you are a professional with a busy life 30 minutes aearobic everyday in the morning is more than enough in my opinion and ensure a healthy diet.
