I commented this later on, but I thought I'd post it here, too :) There is so, so much that can be done to promote gut microbiome health. You covered the 4 most important things in this video, but I will also share that a lot of "healthy eating" and "healthy living" advice has some research pointing back to the microbiome. - Sleep: Your gut microbes have a circadian rhythm just like you do! It's called the "microbial clock" - Exercise has been shown to increase gut microbiome diversity (meaning that it makes the microbiome healthier) and promote proper motility - Yoga 2x per week has been shown to be equally effective as the low FODMAP diet in helping people with IBS - Don't overdo simple/processed sugar: We've all heard this before for metabolic health, but it's important for keeping yeast in the gut in check, too! Great video, as always, Emma!

Dr. DiNezza does this mean that a certain eating window is best for the gut bacteria? I am terrible at fasting and sometimes wake up between 2-4 am to eat a meal so I can go back to sleep. Is there a minimum fasting amount that we need?
@gutmicrobiomequeen Жыл бұрын
@@Joannabanana1989 I don't think it's even that complicated. Based off of my experience and the research, I'd say most people would do well to simply: - Eat at approximately the same time every day (and not skip meals) - Eat 3 "square meals" a day with a good balance of all the macros (carbs, protein, fat), fiber, and color at each meal - Limit processed sugar (in the words of Michael Pollan, "treat treats as treats") Sometimes, I'll have people eat some snacks, too, particularly if they are trying to gain weight or if they are malnourished. Another time when I might consider that is folks who struggle with hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

Interesting info! Back in late November, I made the connection between what I was eating and the effects on my mental health. I’d been really suffering with lots of anxiety and had seen a few doctors (pcp, cardiologist, neurologist, obgyn, etc) and not one mentioned my diet, however ALL suggested anti-depressants.. But one night after a particularly high carb dinner, the anxiety skyrocketed & prompted me to google, “can food cause anxiety?” I was blown away by what I found after digging through the internet: that high glycemic foods can cause an insulin rush that can cause feelings of anxiety! The next morning, I researched low glycemic index foods, went to the store, bought them all and the positive results were literally instantly noticeable. Once I started eating LG foods my anxiety decreased about 80% right away! And some added bonuses that followed: my near constant heartburn and nighttime GERD disappeared, (allowing me to sleep lying down again!) AND I’ve lost 18 pounds. But more than anything, the most important part of discovering the link of food to my mental health has been the ability to regain a more calm and less stressful existence. I wish more people (like you are doing) talked about the relationship, because while medications can of course help many people, there is sometimes a LOT you can do to help yourself without meds. I still have that nagging 15%-20% anxiety that lurks nearby, but I can deep breath it away for the most part now. It’s easy to stay away from sugar and highly refined carbs when you know the consequences if you don’t.

Gut health is so important and so tightly linked to mental health. We literally have a "second brain" in our gut. The gut microbes have a lot of natural connections to us just like the brain has. I'm so glad you did a video on this. When I was diagnosed with stress induced IBS I had to start prioritising my gut health. I started taking a multistrain probiotic everyday and it helped gratefully. It was about 22 billion cfu's. There were foods that I had become intolerant to and had to cut out completely. I avoid fodmap foods as much as possible. I can safely say I'm a lot happier than I used to be. And I'm not experiencing a lot of stomach pain like I once did. I still get the occasional bloating and upset stomach but way less than before.

yes please! so many of our emotions are tied to physiological triggers that need to be better understood.
I've been working with this "30 plant foods" number and including some fermented foods each day. When I sustain this I feel really good. Whenever I feel like carbs will mend everything I remind myself "food can help me feel better, but not in the way I think" and try to stay on track. I write a list on my white board to help me track my "at least 30 plants" each week. TBH the effect is marvellous and I think it's two things, one is better gut health and overall nutrition, the other is something you mention in another video, I'm working with something in my "locus of control" to feel better, it helps me let go of the bits I can't control and manage stress. Thanks Emma.

I thought it was 30 plant food a day. If I remember the video I watched correctly. But it is no as daunting as it first seems. This includes very small amounts of food. So adding a handful of mixed seeds to breakfast counts as 5 or 6. Add mixed herbs to your lunch and that 5 more. Add mixed berries to dessert and that's 5 more.

Thanks so much Emma! I suspect that a heavy dose of antibiotics I was given as a child (to treat limes disease) may have been the catalyst for digestive issues, mental health issues, and eating disorders that I’m still struggling with now. I find that life improves a lot if I exercise and get enough sleep (but sometimes it’s hard to do this regularly). It also is better if I eat small meals with plenty of time in between to digest, don’t get too starving, and if I don’t eat when I’m already feeling very stressed. Certain foods also seem to help: fresh ginger, yogurt, spices, soaked chia seeds, sweet potatoes, and tofu. I also stumbled on a probiotic that seemed to make a big difference (garden of Eden’s Dr formulated shelf stable for women). The only problem is that it’s quite expensive, so if I run out I often can’t replace it for long stretches. It’s amazing how much the state of my digestion does affect my state of mind and determine whether or not I can cope (or even be nice).

Really informative, and I’m going to try some of these things. I already take a probiotic tablet twice a day, and eat yogurt, which has helped my IBS. On a side note, I’m a retired nurse, and the hospital I worked for used fecal transplants for patients with intractable Clostridium Difficile infections due to either prolonged or multiple antibiotic treatment that killed off all their good gut bacteria. It didn’t work for everyone, but most saw enough of an improvement that their symptoms were managed enough until their own gut bacteria levels returned. Most people cringe at the thought, but those who accepted the treatment were desperate to try anything to relieve the misery.
@Alphacentauri819 Жыл бұрын
I used to be a nurse too! While we hadn't done fecal transplants at the facility I worked with, the immunology docs talked about it. I did start asking for probiotics for my patients on antibiotics and asked they be spaced apart. Knowing what I now know, I'd hope for more individualized probiotics for patients...such as those with histamine intolerance to get the low histamine strains, as to not bombard their system. Many of those type patients have their immune system, inflammatory mediators (and more) so out of whack, that they are very sensitive. I wish we could eradicate C diff, it's so terrible. Another important aspect, I really tapped into, after quitting nursing (due to my youngest child born 3 months premature 😯) was when he had health issues and my anxiety was through the roof. Learning ways to calm our nervous systems, emotionally regulate, has been key in overall health. His bowels have greatly improved with emotional regulation skills, we even do a nightly sleep meditation. So, so important. I wish you wellness, peace and health 💛💫

Thanks for the video Dr. Emma! I wanted to mention that for people with Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Probiotics and prebiotics aren't necessarily a good idea. This condition is relatively unknown but it's pretty common and you should try to get a diagnosis for it if you suspect you have it. Do you quickly bloat after every meal? Do you have problems with weight gain/loss that can't be easily explained? Do you get gut cramps? Do you have frequent diarrhea/constipation? Do you suffer from brain fog and anxiety? Then it's likely you have SIBO and you need to treat it before following Dr. Emma's advice or you'll risk making it worse.

I was going down that way but have been blessed to meet a great nutritionists who treated me with antibiotics (I had the Sibo) and a fodmap diet resolving my 10 year lasting problem within 1/2 months 🤗

I don't know if this will help anyone. Often when I'm super anxious, I make up an electrolyte drink and I immediately feel better. It's a mixture I put together of 3 parts sugar, 2 parts salt, and 1/2 part Morton's lite salt. I start with 3/4teaspoonsn in a glass of water. I'm trying the suggestions here. Thank you so much! I truly needed this video.

just got an IBS diagnosis and after 2 weeks of FODMAP elimination diet I'm feeling soooo much better. I've suffered from mental health issues (anxiety, BPD, depression, complex trauma) for 20 years and intense digestive issues for 12. I've always had a very healthy diet but all of this has made my anxiety unmanageable. until I saw a specialist and got a colonoscopy did not really understand how to heal !!!!!!

I had severe depression but I found out it was caused by five foods I was eating. I was cured with antibiotics meant for a sinus infection. Now I can eat whenever I want. Out of 1 to 10, my depression was a 100. It was just pure torture.

I follow the FODMAP Diet and take a powder first thing in the morning called gut repair by brain co. here in Australia. seems to be working the last few months. All of last year I was suffering anxiety and depression really bad. I stopped eating, lost weight had diarrhea, couldn't sleep. I even had a cyst on one of my ovaries that was causing problems and when it burst, It hurt sooo bad. Even caused bladder issues. But still to this day I'm still Stressed from family matters.

Yep, I've tried taking probiotics drinks before meal during my early period of panic disorder and still does at least once a week. I've also tried kimchi, but it didn't work for me. Probiotic drinks is one of the thing that help to calm down my upset gut-brain condition. At my early stage of my disorder, i'll easily start to feel the panic attack whenever i feel hungry & don't eat on time. Now, i dont have that much problem anymore & can have meals a little bit later.

What about healthy green shakes for source of 30 different fruits and vegetables? The one I drink is well sourced with 7 grams of fiber. 500mg of 17 organic veggies, 6.1 gram of 9 super fruit/antioxidants, 1020mg of 6 adaptogens, and 27.75 gram of 6 sources of plant protein. It also has probiotic/prebiotic blend of 50mg of inulin, l rhamnosus, l acidophilus. And 50mg of a digestive enzyme blend. I consume this for lunch everyday along with oatmeal and fruit for breakfast and a well portioned prganic protein/veggie/grain dinner. I'm definitely not getting 30 different fruits/veggies in my breakfast and dinner so is a shake source a dependable way to increase exposure to more fruits and veggies?

I"ve just started researching the gut brain axis connection and have learned over the years (21 years with major depression) - the inflammation, too much cortisol = fat weight gain. Only after going on an Anti-fungal diet and taking a compound blend of natural antifungals for 1 month did I loose 32 lbs and felt better. Unfortunately, I ended up becoming homeless and severely depressed again.

Unfortunately I have 2 chronic pain conditions that react to various different foods (ibs-c and interstitial cystitis) and really limits the fruits and veggies I can eat. So fiber comes mostly from grains and things like metimucil. I’ve seen a nutritionist and she can only do so much. I also have ptsd so I am pretty anxious all the time. Hopefully I can find a good balance
