William Davis | Super Gut | Talks at Google

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 added a comment two months ago. This is a follow-up. My wife and I have been making the yogurt for the past 2 months and I think it is making a difference. It is delicious also and once you get used to the process, it is very fast to make. We have our yogurt every morning. Thank you so much Dr Davis!

The Vancomycin is typically for knocking out C diff. I got C diff from taking clindamycin. Been taking Vancomycin to not get out. I'm going to have to start replanting my garden.

Dr Pimental said in an interview i watched that aspartame is a protein and doesn't affect your gut. Also a fb post said stevia can be a biofilm disruptor for your gut. Please clarify

[lauriecarlson]

GREAT interview! Yes, this is a well known doctor for this subject, and to get to listen to him talk is wonderful!
I do wish the Interviewer could have understood English better because several times she got stuck reading/understanding or unable to complete the words at the end of a question someone posted which was important to the question, and her accent was quite strong for me, in particular.

I ferment BioGaia Gastrus l. Reuterie in organic soy milk. Works well.

[indirasandraaliya]

Will be ok to treat SIBO with refaximin and then repopulate with Lreuteri/gasseri, or it's better to repopulate with those strains?

[allenculbertson]

Very educational and interesting thank you

[hermestrismegistus]

I am just starting this journey, collecting the ingredients now to start fermenting my own foods. I will update this comment in a month. Good luck everybody! 👍🏼

Is there a brand of lactobacilus brevis?

[edbalko]

Thank you THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

[K-Bcreates]

I can't find anything about lactobacillus brevis, I don't see it in the book either, am I missing something?

[edbalko]

Though only on page 26 of, SUPER GUT…how I wish there was an open Line to COMMUNICATE with others..

[rhr]

Love the book and the concept - please vet your pictures better. That after picture was obviously filtered. Reduces the credibility of the claim

[andyk]

Increasing the health of your gut bacteria heightens the filter strength of your phone's selfie cam, amazing Googlers! lol

[christangee]

When is the BEST time to take probiotics? So much conflicting information readily available online...

[HappyBeeTV-BeeHappy]
