The Critical Role of the Gut Microbiome in Immunity

51m · Published 05 Jun 20:18

Health Frontiers Radio - The Critical Role of the Gut Microbiome in Immunity

As the world embraces getting back to work, many are justifiably concerned about the health and safety of their loved ones and the confusion over how to best protect their families.  Join our team as we discuss the critical role of the gut microbiome in immunity and its direct link to mental and physical health.

A healthy gut microbiome or terrain will be around 80% beneficial bacteria and 20% other bacteria (physiologically unpleasant flora like candida, e.coli, etc.)

When this ratio gets flipped, this is when the terrain is prone to welcoming the things we don’t want.

NOW WHAT ARE THESE THINGS WE DON’T WANT?

Things that upset the ideal balance of microbes and leave our terrain vulnerable include:

  • Antibiotics
  • Refined sugars
  • Vaccines
  • OTC and prescription pain and fever medications
  • Oral contraceptives
  • Alcohol
  • GMO’s
  • Antibacterial hand soaps and hand sanitizers
  • Antibacterial cleaning products
  • Chlorine (swimming pools, tap water, bleach, etc.)
  • Aspartame (artificial sweetener found in diet products

One of the most important things we can understand in order to have the best health possible is that the germ isn’t the problem!

*It is the gut biome or terrain that decides whether we get sick, get infected or not.

*It’s the terrain that decides if a wound will become infected

*It’s the terrain that makes one susceptible to disease

Our body has 10 times more microbes living within it than cells

So you can see that if we have more pathogenic (bad) than beneficial bacteria, it matters more than the health of our cells.

In fact, without any healthy microbes, we would die.

This is why antibiotic resistance is killing an increasing number of people around the world.

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF SOFT DRINKS, EVEN 0 AND 1 CALORIE TYPES IN THE DESTRUCTION OF THE BUT BIOME? 

HOW DO YOU CREATE A HEALTHIER GUT BIOME

Gut health refers to the balance of microorganisms that live in the digestive tract. Looking after the health of the gut and maintaining the right balance of these microorganisms is vital for physical and mental health, immunity, and more.  These bacteria, yeasts, and viruses — of which there are around 100 trillion — are also called the “gut microbiome” or “gut flora.”

Many microbes are beneficial for human health, and some are even essential. Others can be harmful, especially when they multiply.  In this article, we list 10 scientifically supported ways to improve the gut microbiome and enhance overall health.

1. Take probiotics and eat fermented foods

To boost the beneficial bacteria, or probiotics, in the gut, some people choose to take probiotic supplements.

These are available in health food stores, drug stores, and online.

Some research has suggested that taking probiotics can support a healthy gut microbiome and that it may prevent gut inflammation and other intestinal problems.

Fermented foods are a natural source of probiotics.

Consuming the following foods regularly may improve gut health:

  • fermented vegetables
  • kefir
  • kimchi
  • kombucha
  • miso
  • sauerkraut
  • tempeh

2. Eat prebiotic fiber

Probiotics feed on nondigestible carbohydrates called prebiotics. This process encourages beneficial bacteria to multiply in the gut.

Research from 2017 suggested that prebiotics may help probiotics become more tolerant to certain environmental conditions, including pH and temperature changes.

People who want to enhance their gut health may wish to include more of the following prebiotic-rich foods in their diet:

  • asparagus
  • bananas
  • chicory
  • garlic
  • Jerusalem artichoke
  • onions
  • whole grains

3. Eat less sugar and sweeteners

Eating a lot of sugar or artificial sweeteners may cause gut dysbiosis, which is an imbalance of gut microbes.

The authors of a 2015 study in animals suggested that the standard Western diet, which is high in sugar and fat, negatively affects the gut microbiome. In turn, this can influence the brain and behavior.

Another animal study reported that the artificial sweetener aspartame increases the number of some bacterial strains that are linked with metabolic disease.

Metabolic disease refers to a group of conditions that increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease.

Research has also indicated that human use of artificial sweeteners can negatively impact blood glucose levels due to their effects on gut flora. This means that artificial sweeteners may increase blood sugar despite not actually being sugar.

4. Reduce stress

Sleep deprivation can negatively affect gut health.

Managing stress is important for many aspects of health, including gut health.

Animal studies have suggested that psychological stressors can disrupt the microorganisms in the intestines, even if the stress is only short-lived.

In humans, a variety of stressors can negatively affect gut health, including:

  • psychological stress
  • environmental stress, such as extreme heat, cold, or noise
  • sleep deprivation
  • disruption of the circadian rhythm

Some stress management techniques include meditation, deep breathing exercises, and progressive muscle relaxation.

Exercising regularly, sleeping well, and eating a healthy diet can also reduce stress levels.

5. Avoid taking antibiotics unnecessarily

Although it is often necessary to take antibiotics to combat bacterial infections, overuse is a significant public health concern that can lead to antibiotic resistance.

Antibiotics are also damaging to the gut microbiota and immunity, with some research reporting that even 6 months after their use, the gut still lacks several species of beneficial bacteria.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), doctors in the United States prescribe around 30% of antibiotics unnecessarily.

As a result, the CDC recommends that people discuss antibiotics and alternative options with their doctor before use.

6. Exercise regularly

Regular exercise contributes to good heart health and weight loss or weight maintenance. Research has also suggested that it may also improve gut health, which may, in turn, help control obesity.

Working out may increase species diversity. A 2014 study found that athletes had a larger variety of gut flora than nonathletes.

However, the athletes also ate a different diet to the control group, which could account for the differences in their microbiomes.

The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans recommend that adults engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise each week, along with muscle-strengthening activities on 2 or more days each week.

7. Get enough sleep

Getting enough good-quality sleep can improve mood, cognition, and gut health.

A 2014 animal study indicated that irregular sleep habits and disturbed sleep can have negative outcomes for the gut flora, which may increase the risk of inflammatory conditions.

Establish healthy sleep habits by going to bed and getting up at the same time each day. Adults should get at least 7 hours of sleep per night.

8. Use different cleaning products

Just as antibiotics can disrupt the gut microbiota, so too can disinfectant cleaning products, according to the results of one study. The 2018 research analyzed the gut flora of over 700 infants ages 3–4 months.

The researchers found that those who lived in homes where people used disinfectant cleaning products at least weekly were twice as likely to have higher levels of Lachnospiraceae gut microbes, a type associated with type 2 diabetes and obesity.

At age 3, these infants had a higher body mass index (BMI) than children without exposure to such high levels of disinfectants.

9. Avoid smoking

Smoking affects gut health as well as the health of the heart and lungs. It also greatly increases the risk of cancer.

A 2018 review of research published over a 16-year period found that smoking alters the intestinal flora by increasing potentially harmful microorganisms and decreasing the levels of beneficial ones.

These effects may increase the risk of intestinal and systemic conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Summary

Maintaining a healthy gut contributes to better overall health and immune function.

By making appropriate lifestyle and dietary changes, people can alter the diversity and number of microbes in their gut for the better.

Positive changes a person can make include taking probiotics, following a fiber-rich vegetarian diet, and avoiding the unnecessary use of antibiotics and disinfectants.

Other simple lifestyle changes a person can make include getting enough sleep and exercising regularly.

However, a person should talk to their doctor before making any drastic changes to their diet. This is because for some people, such as those with irritable bowel syndrome or other medical conditions, probiotics and fiber-rich or vegetarian diets may not be helpful.

Coronavirus Truths

The Truth (and Lies) about Coronavirus

Primary Author: David Williams, MD 

Revised April 23 with updates to section regarding COVID-19 deaths and the addendum.

The Truth (and Lies) about Coronavirus

This is being written on April 19, 2020. Although there is a central author, it is being written on behalf of multiple physicians in West Alabama and will be distributed through multiple medical offices. Between us we have well over a hundred years of practice and have treated hundreds of thousands of patients suffering infectious diseases. Including mission trips we have treated patients on five continents. We planned this date for several reasons. First, most of our patients now realize there is something “funny” about the coverage and handling of this disease. Secondly, if it wasn’t being handled differently by April 19, we knew it would take action from us and our patients to change that handling. Finally, we were told in March by our state officials that experts predicted New York, Florida, Texas, and Alabama were projected to have the median most fatalities from the COVID-19 outbreak with the peak in Alabama expected to be April 19. On this date, Alabama was supposed to be on pace for 5,516 deaths and be short over 21,000 hospital beds. The information just listed, and every piece of information discussed below can be verified with a quick internet search. Many of the sources will be directly referenced. So here goes:

TRUTH: COVID-19 is an actual medical disease that will lead to tragic deaths.  Although this seems obvious, it should be clear that no one involved wishes to express anything but sympathy to those affected and their families. Respiratory failure is a terrible way to die. That is true if that death is due to asthma, COPD, pneumonia, influenza, smoke inhalation, cystic fibrosis, ALS, or COVID-19.

LIE: We don’t know much about coronavirus. This is one of the media’s favorite lies. It is much scarier if it is unknown. We know that coronavirus is a zoonotic disease. In other words, it’s natural hosts are birds and animals as opposed to humans. We vaccinate domestic animals for them. We know that four forms cause colds every year. We know it mutates and evolves just like the flu. We know it sometimes becomes deadly as it has in SARS and MERS. We have done medical studies on coronavirus as a coexisting illness in patients in the past.

LIE: COVID-19 is more infectious than influenza. This is one of two lies most often quoted by the millions who call national radio programs or post on social media. It is amazing how many people with absolutely no medical training somehow feel qualified to comment on this disease. Now, we want to be more fair than the national media so we are obligated to report there will never be a study where 1,000 people eat after people with the flu and 1,000 oth

COVID-19 Novel Coronavirus Pandemic Update

The CDC’s February 25 warning regarding the emerging threat of a COVID-19 outbreak in the US was chilling indeed: “It is not a matter of if, but when it will spread in US communities, and Americans should prepare for “significant disruption” to their lives as a result”. Little did we know at the time just how disruptive it would be.

Six weeks later it appears that the virus has peaked, but it has taken a devastating toll in terms of lives lost and economic impacts to our worldwide economy.

Join the Health Frontiers Broadcast team as we interview Frank Shallenberger MD, a pioneer of integrative and anti-aging medicine and a respected authority on mitochondrial function and oxygen utilization in the body… something we know is significantly impaired in seriously ill Covid patients. Dr. Shallenberger will share with us the latest information from the front lines of combatting Covid in his patients and share some common sense wisdom on how to thrive during these uncertain times.

We will once again review what is known about the virus, symptoms, treatments and prevention strategies that will serve you well in strengthening your resistance to viral or microbial threats. 

Prevention

The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, as a reminder, CDC always recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, including:

  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • Stay home when you are sick.
  • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water.

In addition to these avoidance/prevention strategies, the key to surviving and thriving in the face of emerging viral and microbial threats is to do all you can to maximize your health, vitality and natural resistance with a strong and balanced immune system:

  1. Eat a balanced diet of wholesome foods - meats, grains, fruits, nuts and especially vegetables. Avoid refined carbs and processed foods, carbonated sodas, unfermented soy products and GMO grains.
  2. Stay hydrated by drinking pure filtered water.
  3. Get adequate rest and regular moderate exercise.
  4. Take supplements to strengthen organs and detoxification systems, improve digestion, lower inflammation and oxidative stress, and maximize cellular energy potential… which is exactly what the Burgstiner Wellness Protocol is designed to do.
  5. Take supplements that strengthen immunity and help support natural resistance during cold and flu season such as Immunotabs Organic Immune Support, Vitamin C with mixed bioflavonoids, Vitamin D3, and of course Zinc.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update and live Q&A

Welcome to the health frontiers radio show and podcast where our goal each week is to empower our listeners to become the champions of their health and their future through education and proper supplementation.

COVID-19 Pandemic Update and Live Q&A

On March 11, COVID-19 was officially declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and it is proving to be much more disruptive and deadly than originally thought. Join the Health Frontiers Broadcast team for a live Q&A session as we review what is known about the virus, symptoms, treatments and prevention strategies that will serve you well in strengthening your resistance to viral or microbial threats.

Reported illnesses have ranged from very mild (including some with no reported symptoms) to severe, including illness resulting in death. While information so far suggests that most COVID-19 illness is mild, a recent report out of China suggested that serious illness occurs in 16% of cases. Older people and people of all ages with severe chronic medical conditions — like heart disease, lung disease, and diabetes, for example — seem to be at higher risk of developing serious COVID-19 illness. A CDC Morbidity & Mortality Weekly Report that looked at the severity of disease among COVID-19 cases in the United States by age group found that 80% of deaths were among adults 65 years and older with the highest percentage of severe outcomes occurring in people 85 years and older.

The CDC’s recent (2/25) warning regarding the emerging threat of a COVID-19 outbreak in the US was chilling indeed: “It is not a matter of if, but when it will spread in US communities, and Americans should prepare for “significant disruption” to their lives as a result”. The world is anxiously watching the progression of this new virus which is already having far-reaching implications on our economy, travel, schools, and politics.

What is a coronavirus?

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses (including the common cold) so named because of the crown-like features on their surface.

The new COVID-19 virus was first detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan in December 2019 and has since spread globally. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, these first reported cases had links to a live animal market, suggesting the outbreak started from animal-to-person spread.

Coronaviruses are responsible for two other recent outbreaks: the 2003 SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) outbreak and the 2012 MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) outbreak.

Latest Data on Outbreak

As of March 20th, the number of confirmed cases worldwide was 254,996 and total deaths numbered 10,415 with 87,351 recovered. The virus outbreak seems to be most intense now in Western Europe, and the US has taken unprecedented steps to try to slow down transmission including the temporary closing of schools, restaurants, bars, malls, fitness centers and suspended public meetings of large groups, athletic events, etc.

Johns Hopkins University has created a real-time data tracking web page to track confirmed global COVID-19 cases which may be viewed by clicking this link:

https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6

What are the symptoms? How does it spread?

Patients with COVID-19 experience mild to severe respiratory illnesses. Symptoms include fever, cough, and difficulty breathing and can appear two to 14 days after exposure, according to the CDC.

Around 80 percent of confirmed Chinese cases were mild, the New York Times reported, and the overall fatality rate is around 2.3% in China. Comparatively, the seasonal flu has a mortality rate of about 0.1 percent.

The coronavirus mainly spreads from human to human. Like the common cold, the virus is transmitted when a person coughs or sneezes. It's also possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface with the virus on it before touching their mouth, face or eyes.

For confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases, reported illnesses have ranged from mild symptoms to severe illness and death. Symptoms can include:

  • Fever
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath

CDC believes at this time that symptoms of COVID-19 may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 days after exposure. This is based on what has been seen previously as the incubation period of MERS-CoV viruses.

Q: Am I at risk for COVID-19 from a package or product shipping from China?

A: There is still a lot that is unknown about the newly emerged COVID-19 and how it spreads. Two other coronaviruses have emerged previously to cause severe illness in people (MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV). While we don’t know for sure that this virus will behave the same way as SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, we can use the information gained from both of these earlier coronaviruses to guide us. In general, because of poor survivability of these coronaviruses on surfaces, there is likely a very low risk of spread from products or packaging that are shipped over a period of days or weeks at ambient temperatures. Coronaviruses are generally thought to be spread most often by respiratory droplets. Currently, there is no evidence to support the transmission of COVID-19 associated with imported goods and there have not been any cases of COVID-19 in the United States associated with imported goods.

The latest information will be provided on the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) website as it becomes available. 

Prevention

The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, as a reminder, the CDC always recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, including:

  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
  • Stay home when you are sick.
  • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
  • Follow CDC’s recommendations for using a facemask.
    • CDC does not recommend that people who are well wearing a facemask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID-19.
    • Facemasks should be used by people who show symptoms of COVID-19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others. The use of facemasks is also crucial for health workers and people who are taking care of someone in close settings(at home or in a health care facility).
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
    • If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water.

Back to the Future - Personalized Medicine 
 
Gone are the days when the family physician knew everything about you and your entire family history, your diet and lifestyle choices, and even the skeletons in your family closet!  All too often, patients today are treated as a set of impersonal data points and symptoms that are to be targeted and masked with drugs - with no regard to the underlying causes of the symptoms. Medicine has become so specialized that sadly, most physicians simply don’t have the time, training or desire to investigate their patients’ diet and the multitude of exposures that influence our health so profoundly. 

Today we peer behind the curtain of Personalized Medicine with two cutting edge practitioners who take a holistic approach to patient assessment and treatment - our very own Dr. Chris Meletis (world-renowned Naturopathic Physician) and the extraordinary Al Fusco (Certified Clinical Nutritionist/Therapist and Wellness Coordinator who has served patients alongside grateful medical doctors for decades).  Join us for a fascinating discussion with these modern-day “Disease Detectives” who believe that alternative 'natural' medicine, for most health problems, should be the logical first choice in health care. You will be stunned by the clinical insights they share as we examine the methods they employ to assess health challenges and foster life transformation in their patients.

The Dangers of Soy

54m · Published 21 Feb 21:32

The fact that unfermented soy is widely regarded as a health food in the US is a perfect example of how a brilliant marketing strategy can fool millions. However, the thousands of studies published on soy reveal that the risks of consuming unfermented soy products far outweigh any possible benefits. Join our broadcast team to learn about one of the deadliest deceptions in history - the insidious takeover of our food (and especially the health food) industry by the soy industry.

Here is just a sampling of the health effects that have been linked to soy consumption:

  • Breast cancer
  • Brain damage
  • Infant abnormalities
  • Thyroid disorders
  • Kidney stones
  • Immune system impairment
  • Severe, potentially fatal food allergies
  • Impaired fertility
  • Danger during pregnancy and nursing

 

Top Reasons to Avoid Unfermented Soy 

  1. Over 90% of soy grown in the US is genetically modified
  2. GM soy is linked to an exponential increase in allergies
  3. GM soy has been positively linked with causing infertility
  4. Unfermented soy contains natural toxins known as “anti-nutrients” (phytates, saponins, oxalates, protease inhibitors, estrogens, and goitrogens) which interfere with our hormones and our ability to absorb minerals and digest protein.
  5. Soy contains hemagglutinin, a clot promoting substance that impairs absorption and distribution of oxygen to the tissues.
  6. Because of the way unfermented soy is processed, it contains toxic levels of aluminum and manganese.
  7. Infants fed soy formula have up to 20,000 times the estrogen in circulation as breastfed babies.

List of Unfermented Soy Foods to AVOID:

  • Tofu
  • TVP (texturized vegetable protein) or soy protein isolate
  • Soybean oil
  • Soymilk
  • Soy cheese, soy ice cream, soy yogurt
  • Soy "meat" (meatless products made of TVP)
  • Soy protein
  • Edamame
  • Soy infant formula

Fermented Soy is a Completely Different Story!

Fermented soy has been used for centuries in Asian cultures, and the health benefits associated with fermented soy are numerous… thanks in large part to its high vitamin K2 content.  Vitamin K2 is a vital nutrient in preventing cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, cognitive decline, and protecting against various cancers including lung, prostate, leukemia and liver cancer.

The long history of safe and beneficial consumption of soy is based upon a long fermentation process which greatly reduces the anti-nutrient levels and allows the beneficial properties of soy to be realized.

So, by all means, enjoy the health-promoting and taste-enhancing properties of fermented soy which are available in the following:

  • Natto (fermented soybeans with a sticky texture and strong, cheese-like flavor
  • Miso (a fermented soybean paste with a salty, buttery texture commonly used in miso soup)
  • Tempeh (a fermented soybean cake with a firm texture and nutty, mushroom flavor)
  • Soy Sauce (made by fermenting soybeans, salt, and enzymes)

CAUTION - Many varieties of soy sauce are made artificially using a chemical process
