I cured my own anxiety and depression that I struggled with for 10 years by simply changing my diet and not treating my mouth like a trash compactor. I did what four doctors could not do. All thanks to Dr. Peter Breggin.

If this guy, Andrew Weil, Gabor Mate, and Rangan Chatterjee were put in charge of redesigning medical training and practice, the world would be a very different place.

I just said a prayer for God to direct me to information to help my son heal from cancer. I'm so excited to listen to this.

Believing you are already healthy is a massive mental boost. You relieve stress and your microbiome improves. The power of thought is one of the biggest superpowers you have for your own health. I believe certain bad microbes actually require the body to be stressed.

🙏 Dr. Bulsiewicz is brilliant. Everything has says about “Good Gut Flora” makes so much sense. I have Kidney Disease & I have type two Diabetes . I feel like all the Antibiotic’s that I take for Chronic Kidney Infection, Bladder Infections, UTI’s & yeast infection from the antibiotic’s cause my Blood Sugar levels to go high and it’s this constant struggle to try & feel healthy and strong but I feel terrible. Fatigue, nausea, anxiety, back pain, lower abdominal discomfort/pressure. My kidney function is 36% between the two. My eGRF is 19. I just got out of the hospital 2/7/24. With kidney infection,UTI, with Sepsis. My body was shaking for a day & a half, I was extremely hot, fever, and uncomfortable nausea. It was horrible. Because I have been dealing with this illness all of my life I decided to cut all processed foods, sugar, gluten, meat, dairy, and stop eating out. I’m on a plant based diet. 🌱 by the 4th day I see changes . My stomach is not bloated, less swelling in my feet, legs, face, my skin doesn’t look yellow, and I have had two + bowel movements a day. I also take prebiotics and probiotics every day. Thank you for sharing all your very helpful information. 👍

Literally shaking watching this. My son 2 year old had aml we are day +19 of stem cell transplant. I never comment on YouTube’s. I have focussed on his microbiome in his chemo and transplant. He is flying through no mucositis. No need for medical feeds. Our nurses abs drs are astonished. To hear that studies are proving that what I’m already doing is improving his survival rates. I can’t even put it into words how it makes me feel. I also gave my son ip6 which is an amazing dietary fibre.

I've come off a carnivore diet and really started to focus on feeding by gut biome. The benefits of a few months of carnivore got me lean, strong and fitness-motivated. Adding the fibre has carried those benefits over and got me leaner, and fitter and my cognitive function has improved massively. I am going to try increasing my fibre variety next

I literally cried when I listened to the part about food intolerances. I have been STRUGGLING with this and trying to figure it out with absolutely no idea how. I feel like I have developed an eating disorder because of it. A fear of foods.... and limiting myself to what I can eat with no way out. THANK YOU!!!! I am going to dive in and see how the heck I can change this for myself.

I found a good source for feeding my Microbiome. Recently did a DNA test and was able to actually learn what weaknesses I have in my Gene expression. I am really feeling better. I'm 66 and I was surrendering into the thoughts that aging was a crewel and inevitable thing. I now have hope again and I feel like I want to live a longer life. Thank God, you really are what you eat.

One thing I know for sure, pumpkin purée’s fiber helped my little kitten from suffering from diarrhea. Fiber definitely helped his little gut poor thing. Now he can run around and be his happy go lucky little self.

I’ve changed my life by diet change. The best part is, I didn’t do it for weight loss, that was the biproduct. My energy level has skyrocketed and I’m so clearheaded that I feel my vision has improved. It clicked when I saw Mary Clare Haver’s menopause podcasts. She made me start the whole fermented foods, live yoghurt/kefir and tempeh , nuts, seeds berries, fruit and veg. Now that I’m “here” (in my new state) I’m not perfect. My bowel movements aren’t perfect. This podcast is helping me get it , so I’m off to get that correct magnesium. This is the best podcast I’ve ever heard.

I watched the previous episode with Rich and Dr B, so I could have his backstory and the information from that is excellent. When one is watching a podcast and taking notes, as I am doing, it shows the significance of what is being delivered. I feel like I am "finding myself" in what is being said here. Things that I have thought about in making changes to my diet, in looking at neuroscience to help understand my past addictive behavior with alcohol and anorexia, and the relationship between the gut and the brain is truly mind-blowing. I am so grateful that we have access to this on YT for free. Thank you guys!

Thank God for the internet and wifi, I started plant based about 4 months ago and I feel so amazing and the weight is dropping off. Thank you sooooo much.

I've eaten a starch-based vegan diet for ~15 years and have always had excellent digestion. Then in mid-October I got food poisoning from a frozen burrito, and have had IBS for about 3 weeks. Trying to very slowly rebuild the microbiome, and it makes me appreciate what you take for granted when your digestion works right.

I have struggled my entire life with gut / tummy issues. :( Thank you for this pod cast. I am going to take this seriously now because I’m sick of being sick 🙏 x

Other people do podcast shows , but no one does it as well as Rich Roll, his intelligence and questions and passion is unparrelled!

Gentlemen: thank you for this informative, inspirational and timely discussion. 1) Dr B, toward the end where you hastily interject the fact that folks should check with their “medical provider”, and that you were NOT offering medical advice, I had to laugh. The reason I listen to Rich’s podcast (and Dr Huberman’s) is that there really isn’t anything resembling a “health care provider” anymore. Between the 15 minutes they are allotted to seeing you, to the fact that they probably are not aware of any new developments in their field, etc, you folks have become a lifeline. 2). The issue of the circadian rhythm present in the microbiome stopped me in my tracks!! I learned about “the master clock” several years ago, and practice the basic rules.. but my gut??!! Would love to hear more on that topic at some future date. My heartfelt appreciation for all the information you continue to bring to the general public, Rich. The podcast with Dr Walker was another astonishing, eye opening learning experience. I’m 83.. Imagine.. I had to get to this age to learn how to breathe, how to sleep and how to eat!! No thanks to any of my “health care providers “! I love you guys!!!

Oh, wow, I just realized that when we see families getting similar cancers, we assume it’s genetic, but maybe it’s the microbiome we inherit from our family is the reason familial cancers. Amazing research project.
