How Gut Bacteria Affects Blood Sugar, DavidPerlmutterMD

How Gut Bacteria Affects Blood Sugar - with Dr. Momo and Dr. Casey | Empowering Neurologist EP. 139 36,066 viewsDec 13, 2021 DavidPerlmutterMD 84.7K subscribers So much of our health depends on metabolism. And specifically, one of the most important players in this space is how well controlled is our blood sugar. In looking at blood sugar, how it changes following a meal turns out to be a central mechanism that has widespread implications both in the short term (how we feel today) and the long term (risk for serious health issues). I’m going to present a technical term here, postprandial glycemia, which you will hear mentioned quite a bit in this podcast. Postprandial means after a meal, and glycemic means blood sugar level. As such, we are exploring what happens to blood sugar after a meal, something we should all care about. Our guests today include Dr. Momo Vuyisich, Chief Science Officer at Viome. We will be discussing his fascinating new research that was able to accurately correlate the postprandial glycemic response with a unique measurement of the metabolic products produced by gut bacteria. Dr. Vuyisich was actually able to predict how people would respond to specific types of foods, in terms of their blood sugar response, by looking at these bacterial metabolic markers. In that measurement of glycemic response is so central to understanding this research, I’ve also invited Dr. Casey Means of Levels to join us on the program again. Levels is a company that focuses on using a new technology, continuous glucose monitoring, which allows us to fully understand how our glycemic response plays out in the face of our food and other lifestyle choices. This is an exciting program.

Atomic Vagrant Atomic Vagrant 6 months ago In my 50's, after decades of eating crap, mood swings, no sleep, brain fog, exhaustion, pain and other miseries I finally figured it out. Took six months to turn things around. Little to no carbs, keep that blood sugar low low and its even steven all the way. Thank you Dr. Perlmutter, Momo and Casey. You guys and Doctors like you are the real health care providers. 43 Asbestos Flake Asbestos Flake 6 months ago (edited) Both guests were absolutely amazing. The guy in the check shirt is like the Elon musk of the gut/biome/health space 😄 data/systems and relentless work ethic 👏🏼 13 Don Rad Don Rad 5 months ago I can imagine a future where the use of bio feedback monitors like Dr. Casey is developing is combined with Dr. Momo's machine learning logarithms to individualize not only what foods to eat, but also when, how often, and how much. And the timing and quantity will be customized to the day of the week, seasons, exercise levels, age, hormone cycles etc. We need to also pair these technologies with evolutionary biology logic. 3 Andrew Hutton Andrew Hutton 6 months ago Just when you think you understand the science, your interviewees have given us much to ponder 9 DavidPerlmutterMD Eugenie Breida Eugenie Breida 4 months ago Wonderful opportunity to catch Dr Momo ‘Viome’ - could listen to him all day. Thank you! 3 bumblebill1 bumblebill1 6 months ago We are lucky to have access to such brilliant scientists. I try to listen to everything they say. They do tend o be overwhelming with scientific details. We need simpler explanations. You are way beyond most of us with your knowledge. Thank you for what you do and keep up the excellent work. 5 Shirley Anderson Shirley Anderson 6 months ago Very interesting stuff. I am so interested in this. Can we tell from how we feel after eating which foods elevate our insulin too much? I feel like I must get it from drinking beer. 2 charlene williams charlene williams 3 months ago Absolutely amazing information. Thank you for downloading this video. I hope that it promotes many people's health. 3 Stefan Weilhartner Stefan Weilhartner 6 months ago (edited) from my perspective, it is all about triggering GLP-1 and PYY output by short chain fatty acids from the right gut bacteria. regarding the blood sugar response to a sweet potato: different microbiomes produce different molecules from fiber. if you get a lot of propionate and butyrate from fermenting the fiber of the sweet potato through the right gut bacteria then the L cells produce a lot of GLP-1 and PYY. the pyy tells the brain to lower the ghrelin hunger hormone, GLP-1 tells the alpha cells in the pancreas to lower overproduction of glucagon and then the liver lowers gluconeogenesis and that is what we want. have less amino acid wasting for gluconeogenesis and change the fuel mixture from glucose to fatty acids and sometimes also ketones which is also nice for brain health. am i right or am i right? i was so happy when my ketogenic diet worked like a charm. dropped 25kg without being hungry. high blood sugar went away completely. the problem after a year: i had a tooth infection and also an ear infection. i had to take two times two packages of anti-biotics. and these antibiotics did their job very well and destroyed my good bacteria. that was my problem. 29kg of weight came back and now i try making different yoghurts and kefir to fix this problem. i think this will work, but this is not a process for a few days. it is probably a process of weeks or months. to fix that. 10 T S T S 5 months ago Im on the Levels waitlist, probably at the bottom. Just found out I'm APOE4/4 and am tumbling down the rabbit hole. Wish I could get my hands on continous glucose monitor without a Dr perscription. My dr told me not to worry about my sugars at 95 and not a peep on a major jump in cholesterol. So done with standard take a pill mentality. Conceivably what you say about people's having different reactions to foods is true, although the glysemic (however it's spelled) index contains information that, I believe, provides much valuable guidance to people. But the male lecturer's claims, about knowing how to manipulate the microbiome, completely exceed what it is possible to do at this time. That is why Erika and Justin Sonnenburg recommend, eat fiber because it feeds and strengthens the micriobiota eat fermented foods because that increases microbiota diversity--and no other recommendation about the microbiota can be made at this time because not enough is known about how the bacteria and other components of the microbiota #InsulinResistance #MetabolicHealth #CGM Symptoms & diseases tied to insulin resistance & metabolism (Dr. Ben Bikman & Dr. Casey Means) 64,084 viewsNov 29, 2021 \ Levels 21.8K subscribers Many diseases traditionally associated with aging have a metabolic root cause, including seemingly-unrelated conditions like tinnitus and gallbladder stones. But with a metabolic origin (specifically with insulin resistance), there can be a metabolic solution. Blood glucose levels and insulin are tied to many more chronic diseases than just Type 2 Diabetes. Ben Bikman, PhD, the doctor at the forefront of research and thought leadership on insulin resistance, digs deep in this video with Levels’ Chief Medical Officer and co-founder Dr. Casey Means to uncover the connection between metabolic health and surprising disorders that surface as a result of insulin resistance. 📍 WHAT THEY DISCUSS: 00:00 – Intro 07:16 – A ray of hope in declining health 09:25 – Metabolic connections for tinnitus, vertigo, and hearing loss 11:57 – Undiagnosed metabolic disorders later surface in disease 13:13 – Insulin resistance and GERD 20:37 – How insulin resistance contributes to gallblader stones 27:39 – NAFLD and clearing the liver of fat buildup 33:47 – Two types of fat cell disorders: hypertropy and hyperplasia 40:42 – Two foods to avoid for optimized health 46:16 – When a low carb diet spikes blood glucose 48:12 – The data power that a CGM gives you 50:32 – A unique perspective on healthy glucose levels Available on "A Whole New Level" in Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

Ronni Ronni 3 months ago I have watched several interviews with Ben Bikman, but this is the best one by far! Casey Means is asking the right questions, and then is the BEST listener. 22 Pam Reeves Pam Reeves 1 month ago I'm sitting here stunned!!! I've suffered from pulsatile tinnitus for several years now...seen numerous doctors...had a surgical procedure, and no help. I was told there was no cause or cure. Now, only because I can't lose weight no matter what I do, I'm hearing that maybe the insulin resistance is the culprit??? 8 Patience Ankrah Patience Ankrah 12 days ago Dr Bikman, God bless you for availing yourself to research metabolic disorders. I had all the symptoms you talk about 40 years ego and never once did any doctor mention insulin resistance. After years of getting tired of being sick l took it upon myself to go to the library to read books on nutrition. Started uncovering information on insulin and inflation. Listening to you has helped me to control my symptoms with health modifications by eating low carb. Thank for all you do. 4 Levels Carrie Silvina Espinoza Villanueva Carrie Silvina Espinoza Villanueva 5 months ago Heavy processed carbo addiction, yes it's an addiction. I'm 64 and I became very interested in foods and health when I was age 9. I had been home for 2 weeks curled up the the couch when my neighbor came to check on me. This lady was 85 and I was a latch key kid. She was horrified to see me travel to the bathroom crawling on my hands and knees. A doctor was called who made a house call and examined me. He called my mother and told her, in an angry tone, he was taking me to the hospital for an emergency appendectomy. Immediately after the doctor hung up the phone, he stormed into the kitchen. I could hear him opening the fridge, cupboards and drawers. He was angry, slamming things around and grumbling. After I woke from surgery, my mother came in and the doctor cornered her at one side of my bed. He pointed his finger at her telling her he was going to call Social Services and have me removed because my DIET of bread, cereals, pasta, hotdogs was killing me. To this day I CANNOT have frosted miniwheats, Life, Cheerios in the house. My kids said when they were young the neighbors all portrayed me as a nut because it was common knowledge I would not allow boxed cereal, sugar, sodas, white bread, candy, etc in the house. If I eat a bowl of cereal in the evening a couple of nights a week, the cravings will start up and the cereal will call to me at 2am screaming to me to eat it. I can't have it in the house. 18 Karen Fretz Karen Fretz 5 months ago Aren't those of us who have come upon Dr. Bikman the lucky ones? I think so. 53 Kokonut Adventure Kokonut Adventure 5 months ago I can vouch to all of these topics, Dr. Bikman is part of my healing without ever meeting him in person just listening to all of his lectures and reading his book, “why we get sick” 17 Ken Jackson Ken Jackson 5 months ago I love how Dr. Bikman rolls through the topic without dumbing it down. 15 tg tg tg tg 5 months ago (edited) I'm so glad that young American doctors are aware now about the wrong north American diet and I'm so hopeful they will be the one to bring the change! Please do not give up!!!😍😍😍 34 bitmau5 bitmau5 5 months ago Glad to see this high level discussion here on Levels, keep up the effort, I would love to see more of this. First, Dr. Lustig and now Dr. Bikman! I can only imagine what the future holds. Great, discussion! 12 Cathy Cathy 4 months ago Fascinating discussion and Dr. Bickman’s explanations are so easy to follow and understand. I would have loved to participate in the glucagon/insulin experiment as I am carnivore. And just the mention of Frosted Mini Wheats (my favorite cereal that I haven’t had in years) has me salivating. 2 Soteria Charis Soteria Charis 5 months ago Amazing interview!! I could listen to you both all the time!! I want more info about fat cells. People keep talking about obesity but not really how fat cells operate in the body. Thanks for touching on this a bit. I think I may have to buy Ben's book!! 6 LadyJAtheist LadyJAtheist 1 month ago I can attest to the carb/heartburn connection! When I was vegetarian then vegan, I ate fruits and veggies and oatmeal and high fiber toast...(trying to get rid of my diabetes).. and I ate tums almost a roll a day. once I went back to omnivore, the heartburn started easing, up... now as a primarily carnivore (still working on curing the diabetes, but a lot closer now than I ever was before)... I haven't had heartburn other than maybe once or twice (on a carb binge) in the last 2 years. TRUE relief! 2 Levels Linda McNeil Linda McNeil 4 months ago This was a great dialogue. My question for both of you is, “is there a MAST Cell disorder related to all this also? And “is insulinemia the root cause to metabolic disorders or histamine from a Mast Cell Activation overload or is this a dynamic disease progression?” The disease list for MCAS seems so similar to hyoerinsulinemia issues, that I can’t help but think there is something going on there. 2 Kathie Fleming Kathie Fleming 5 months ago So impressive! I’ve been asking for long time, why my glucose levels go high 250->300 when I’m 24’fasting 3x/week and on keto. Ketones 1.8 , I feel better than when I’m trying to get BS level down with insulin. I can see the levels now that I finally got doc to get CGM continuous glucose monitor. 4 Ann Etcell-Ly Ann Etcell-Ly 5 months ago (edited) Brilliant discussion. Thank you. In 2021, two Australian doctors in the state of Victoria discovered the gene responsible for lipidema (faulty and painful fat deposition in the limbs of millions of females). Keto sort of helps, but not really. Can Dr Bikman comment on the role of insulin resistance on lipedema? 8 Nathan Silitonga Nathan Silitonga 6 months ago Absolutely wonderful interview. Ben is just so credible and is instrumental in promoting lifelong health. Massive fan of the Levels channel and I'm really looking forward to hearing your interview with Dr Richard Johnson. Thanks and keep up the brilliant content, Casey. 17 Levels Mandel Harvey Mandel Harvey 5 months ago His book is on rotation with the Bible right now on my audible list. Every chapter in his book corresponds to somewhere in scripture. Makes me reread my bible and points out a lot of what I missed. 9 Julia Julia 7 months ago what an excellent interview.... never heard these advanced questions anywhere else. thank you so much 32 Levels TerrapinSuite TerrapinSuite 5 months ago Excellent discussion! Thank you Dr. Means and Dr. Bikman. You touched on so many important topics in a short period of time. The structure of the conversation matched the excellence of the content. 4 Dennis Koyle Dennis Koyle 5 months ago (edited) This interview clarified several perspectives for me, and I've listened to Bikman and many others. My family tends toward diabetes in older age as well as hearing loss. I never supposed they might be connected by causation. On the other hand it put my mind at ease about a morning bg of 110. My goal is to be under 100 each morning, and have struggled to achieve that. I have compromised to a goal/practice of fasting until bg drops below 100. UPDATE:. (Age 71) Fasting until glucose dropped below 100 didn't work, because it didn't allow me to finish my eating time early enough, (I need to be done eating by 3 pm to maintain a long enough fasting time, have an empty stomach at bed time, and stay on a 24-hour cycle). Self-imposed parameters: *24-hour fasting eating cycle *18 hour or longer fasting period *Eat enough low carb calories to maintain energy yet discourage snacking. *Restrict calories and carbs enough to be under 100 fasting glucose. Gratitude to Bikman, Fung and others for educating me to be able to lose 50+ pounds and maintain for several years. William Davis - Bowels Gone Wild: Microbiome Strategies For Age-Reversal 220,960 viewsOct 20, 2021 TheIHMC 71.9K subscribers This lecture is part of the IHMC Evening Lecture series. https://www.ihmc.us/life/evening_lect... We are graduating from the age of probiotics and prebiotics to a time in which we are able to adopt exciting new strategies that give us enormous control over the aging process. I will talk about the power of cultivating the bacterial species, Lactobacillus reuteri, to take advantage of its ability to smooth skin and reduce wrinkles, accelerate healing, preserve bone density, restore youthful muscle and strength, increase libido, and enhance empathy. I will discuss how bowel flora has gone haywire in many people, populating parts of the gastrointestinal tract where they don’t belong and contributing to the aging process and underlying many health conditions. I will then discuss how to assess this situation, then correct it, with potential to restore and maintain many aspects of youthfulness and health.

Our food was organic. We ate all healthy organic food.. I'm 80... And microbiome is of utmost importance. We just need to all get back to basics in nature. 118 j w j w 8 months ago Good to see Dr Davis again. A very honourable Doctor 74 Rudy Evergreen Rudy Evergreen 8 months ago What an eye opener. And a great teacher to boot!! 29 Daniel Kochan Daniel Kochan 8 months ago Glad to see doctor Davis speaking again. For making his yogurt we use a yogurt maker with an additional temperature probe that goes to a plug-in digital thermostat. Easy to buy on Amazon. Keeps the temperature much more accurate 29 Bruce Campbell Bruce Campbell 8 months ago Great work! Wheat Belly was the first book that I read when I became interested in gut health because of my own gut issues. I'm excited to see your work advancing so well! 34 Jami Carpenter Jami Carpenter 8 months ago Thank you 🙏! Great information AND ENTERTAINING! Look forward to more lectures 🙌! 15 stephen hogg stephen hogg 8 months ago I’ve been taking probiotics for a while, but I’d never heard of L reutori and B. infantis. I’m only now discovering that the probiotics I’ve been taking contain only a single, or two, strains. 23 Kooi Seng Chng Kooi Seng Chng 8 months ago In some cultures grandma looked after their grandchildren. These kids got breast fed and when weaning comes, it is grandma who chews the solid food and feeds the toddler. Hence the passage of free micro biome to kids. Kids 80 years ago had better nutrition then cmpared to now, where it is considered 'modern' 'advanced' if you use formula and have a C section. Our internal environment has been savaged in the same way we savaged our external environment. We all need a complete rethinking of how we are going to go forward in the coming decades. 122 Sue Ellis Sue Ellis 7 months ago fascinating.

I've questioned this for a long time and have not found an answer. Great presentation! 22 Susan Beever Susan Beever 7 months ago Dr. Davis I have a question: Post menopausal vaginal atrophy is due to lactobacillus no longer supported in the vagina because there is no more glycogen, due to estrogen loss, to feed lactobacillus. Does lactobacillus reuteri work in the vagina and other skin in post menopausal women with this lack of glycogen, to improve the epithelium? 20 Tom Cunningham Tom Cunningham 7 months ago I just started taking probiotics for GERD and my blood glucose is so much better. 10 Bright Star33 Bright Star33 5 months ago Loved ALL of your other books and I'm So SUPER Please to hear about your New book coming out Feb 2022.. I will DEFINITELY Be adding it to my library 2 Bambina336 Bambina336 8 months ago I grew up on a farm and we always made our own yogurt. The process is very simple, at least the way we did it. Cook the milk (this is for fresh milk), let it cool to where it is lukewarm, mix in 1-2 tablespoons of plain, full fat yogurt, mix it well. Wrap that whole bowl in a towel and leave it overnight in a place where its not too cold(room temperature). My mom preps all this in the evening and leaves it next to a stove. In the morning we have yogurt. It can last 2 weeks to a month in a fridge and the longer it sits the thicker it becomes, like a Greek yogurt but without all that sugar they put in. You can also take that yogurt and put it in a cotton bag to drain overnight and you'll have a basic, very plain cream cheese to which you can add some flavors. I just put some salt and use a little bit milk to make it to my desired texture. I suppose the stuff he's talking about could be added here to make it even healthier. 39 Gill Moberly Gill Moberly 4 months ago Made my first batch in a cold pack canner floating in my hot tub.

I am SAD to see this, as it does take me to a more skeptical stance regarding his understanding of the secrets to optimal health. To cut anyone off at the pass, no, am not seeking a bulked-up, six-packed individual, but the obvious overweight, and the location of much of it in the dangerous organ area . . . this is problematic. 7 Linda Covert Linda Covert 2 months ago Thank you so much!

William Davis | Super Gut | Talks at Google 16,710 viewsFeb 5, 2022 397 Talks at Google 1.76M subscribers William Davis discusses his book "Super Gut: A Four-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight", a plan to reprogram your microbiome based on research and techniques that not only gets to the root of many diseases but improves levels of oxytocin (the bonding/happy hormone), brain health and promotes anti-aging and weight loss. Over the past 50-100 years, industrialized agriculture and food, overexposure to antibiotics, as well as chemicals in our diet and environment, has dramatically altered the human microbiome, turning it into something that is almost no longer human. These disruptive changes pose silent dangers for health, increasingly ignored by a quick-fix society eager to buy into dietary fads but unaware of the turmoil within. The answer to our gut and overall health problems isn’t found in the latest version of a ketogenic diet or some new “superfood,’ reveals Dr. Davis. Instead, we desperately need to reintroduce our bodies to the microbial species that once lived in our ancestors, while pushing back the army of microbial interlopers that have taken their place. Dr. William Davis, M.D. is a preventive cardiologist and author of the groundbreaking #1 New York Times bestseller "Wheat Belly" and three other New York Times bestsellers: "Wheat Belly Cookbook", "Wheat Belly 30- Minutes (or Less!) Cookbook", and "Wheat Belly Total Health", among other titles. He is a graduate of the St. Louis University School of Medicine, with training in internal medicine and cardiovascular disease, and advanced training in angioplasty at the Case Western Reserve University Hospitals where he also served as Director of the Cardiovascular Fellowship and Assistant Professor of Medicine.

I love all your advise on how to take control of your own health. Big Pharma must hate you!! Keep exposing all this crucial information about how to improve one's health. Thank you so much!!! 1 Tiffany Raine Tiffany Raine 8 days ago (edited) Great episode with Dr. Davis! Does reuteri yogurt cause die off symptoms? Trish Oler Trish Oler 3 months ago I’m so excited to come upon this-I just made a batch using the pills, crushed them and added with the gelatin- your pouches will make the process much easier. If I’m using raw milk do you think I’ll get a firm yogurt or should I still add the gelatin like I normally do? 3 J Four J Four 1 month ago Hi Donna, I have an instant pot with a yogurt setting do you think that would work for this? Also could it be done with goat milk? Thanks 1 Patricia Clarkson Patricia Clarkson 3 months ago Thank you for this video. I will be purchasing the starter. 😊 2 m Anderson m Anderson 3 months ago Hi Donna, Is your Lactobacillus Reuteri starter the exact same as Dr. Davis's starter as he mentions in another video that you only need to use his starter tablets once and thereafter use only the yogurt base? 6 william powell william powell 4 weeks ago Chattanooga, TN Hi Donna. Can other full fat Greek Yogurt (Choboni) with live cultures be added to the new batch of l ruteri for additional benefits. 1 Stuart Wyllie Stuart Wyllie 4 weeks ago How long do we need to take it to notice the benefits? 1/2 a cup a day for how long? 1 Nola Cagle Nola Cagle 1 month ago I am going to attempt my first batch of l reurteri yogurt tonight ..trying to research enough so I don't mess it up lol..my gut needs some serious help... Bob Mason Bob Mason 2 months ago (edited) Can you use kefir as a base using Lactobacillus reuteri bacteria species, or do you have to ferment in a yogurt maker. What about jars or large keifir jars? 1 Pamela Pittman Pamela Pittman 3 months ago Donna, I’d like to make this yogurt with raw milk. I’ve ordered the yogurt maker and the starter. Have you tried this? Will it work out the same? 1 William Wallace Brower de Berkhoven III William Wallace Brower de Berkhoven III 3 months ago Looked for Sugar swap probiotic guilds, and was unable to find this product. Very interested in the anti-parkinsons anecdotal claims, because even peer reviewed scientific studies are anecdotal, just with a credibly tracked process (and larger than singular subject population). 3 Danna Bailey Danna Bailey 1 month ago How young of a child can take this yogurt? 1 Lynne Anderson Lynne Anderson 3 months ago Do you think these foods will work for people who have had their gall bladder removed? Patricia Clarkson Patricia Clarkson 3 months ago When I click on the link for the L. Reuteri starter it says the page does not exist. Maybe the link is broken...? 2 Lucy Mottershead Lucy Mottershead 3 months ago (edited) Why does the milk not need to be boiled? Can/should the milk be boiled and cooled first before making this 'yogurt'? Frances F Frances F 3 months ago Can I purchase this in Australia 1 Deborah Barnes Deborah Barnes 4 weeks ago ❤ #drwilliamli #davidperlmutter #wheatbelly How To Reprogram Your Microbiome To Restore Health And Lose Weight | Dr William Davis 1,653 viewsApr 5, 2022 The Story Box 2.12K subscribers William Davis, M.D. is a renowned preventive cardiologist and author of the groundbreaking #1 New York Times bestseller Wheat Belly, three other New York Times bestsellers: Wheat Belly Cookbook, Wheat Belly 30-Minutes (or Less!) Cookbook, and Wheat Belly Total Health, and several other books including Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox and Undoctored. The bestselling author of the Wheat Belly books brings his next big, game-changing idea—the human microbiome and the silent epidemic of SIBO—to the mainstream. Wheat Belly was a breakthrough, informing readers that the wheat and grains we consume today are not the same wheat and grains of our ancestors and were making us overweight and sick. In Super Gut, Dr. Davis takes his research and findings a step further and shows that because of our highly-processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are is now missing so many of the good bacteria required to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over health, weight, mood, even behavior. Get Super Gut Here: Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Super-Gut-Four...

I love this man, and just got my Luvele yogurt maker while watching this episode, and can’t wait to get L. Reuteri started! Looking forward to you getting him back on and picking his brain, for some of the knowledge he has to share. I think he is a hero, coming to the rescue of the general population, showing them things and steps we can take to improve, and or get our health back! Without pushing pharmaceuticals etc…. We desperately need more like him, and people like you who are getting this info out to the people, where it can change lives for the better! Thank you! 2 The Story Box Mary Koger Mary Koger 2 months ago Love you Dr Davis. Wish you could keep political stuff out of it.
