Psyllium, artichoke, bone broth, flax and fermented foods are the 5 things he names in this video for those of you who, like me, do not have time to watch all in one sitting. Also, there is a full list when you click the drop down arrow. **EDIT: someone else said Kefir…which has millions of probiotics✔️ ***EDIT EDIT for those struggling to understand that I didn’t have time in the moment to watch the full video. So I watched over time and made the list, despite the list in the pull down. Many, as you see here, come to comments for info they want to know when they cannot watch the complete video in one sitting. (I can’t believe I’ve had to spell this out so many times 🤦🏻♀️ )
And fermented foods
And just how do you eat all of those for breakfast?
Thank you
Thank you so much❣️
Much appreciated
Not necessarily in order of video! 1. Psyllium 2. Artichoke - has inulin 3. Kefir / fermented dairy ( Yoghurt, cheese) 4. Flaxseed 5. Bone broth - gelatine & glutamine 6. Fermented cabbage / veggies Combination improves quantities and types of bacteria and increases their effects on health. Ps Buy kefir grains ( a little pricey) specific for milk or for water & make your own kefir for free ! Once it gets going, it produces kefir every 24 hrs. Need only drink 50 ml daily. The kefir grains grow rapidly unless you refrigerate it. Give excess grains you don't need to family, friends, neighbours etc & do a little good! 👍
I bought psyllium but with flavor and I couldn’t drink it couse taste is disgusting plus it has sugar
What brand of Kefir grains is best?
@@Just2gofoods I don't know about brands. It's not a common product so I'm guessing any one will do & I think only specialist shops would keep them. I got mine from a friend in 2019 & it's still going strong ! I refrigerate it to stop it growing too quickly ! As you can keep it at room temp but the grains multiply so fast that you end up having to throw a lot away (unless you find a home for them !). I think if you Google kefir grains and look for a well-established company which has a website explaining what to do etc and organic etc then you should be fine.
Difficult to get artichoke all year round. Do not see in the supermarket.
@@vibhaspalding6457 I don't think it necessary to do everything. Once you have a good biome I would think it was capable of self-maintenance . It's our processes foods, refined sugars & added chemicals that destroy it in the first place. So once you're eating simple home cooked food it should keep your gut ok.
Dang I wish our food wasnt purposely poisoned by the powers that be
Pesticides and manufactured fertilizer poisons the ground...
Nobody's forcing you to consume it!
Yeah, I recently learned that wheat and oats are sprayed with Roundup right before harvest to kill it and dry it standing up. It is called "desiccation". Makes it easier to cut and they can harvest it immediately without waiting for it to dry naturally.
The powers that be ARE the problem. FDA, doesn't give a hoot about the Health of the people.
@@ianstuart5660 Easy to say if your not poor. They are greatful just to eat every day.
I'm 77. When I was a kid my grandmother used to make a gelatin dish by cooking down chicken bones. She would add chicken and hard boiled eggs sliced and pour in a glass baking dish so it was 1-2 inches thick and refrigerate. To serve the gelatin she would cut into squares. Old World Cooking... she was originally from Belarus .
its called holodez and u eat it w horse radish ... sooo good
Was she healthy and how long did she live?
We had this dish in Poland. We had it with some vinegar pour over it. Loved it.
@@saved3671 yum
@@southerngrandma4353 yeah. Forgot about the horseradish LOL Best part
When my daughter moved in with me she was constantly in pain due to constipation . I got her to start taking psyllium husk and aloe vera juice. Now she faithful drinks her aloe vera juice with the psyllium husk mixed in it. She has no more pain and can eat vegetables now that use to cause her pain. She is living proof that it works.
I concur 100% on the psyllium and aloe vera juice mixture. I suffered for many years with constipation, my gut was not healthy overall, but seeing a homeopathic nutritionist solved that problem for me. As far as the psyllium and aloe vera juice that works wonders in the gut it helps me tremendously!! My recent colonoscopy results proved it! It showed a healthier colon than 10 years ago!!
This is good news! How much psyllum vs aloe?
@@sanetclaassen1586 I use 1 tsp Psyllium Hulls Combo (Psyllium, Hibiscus, and Licorice), 2 tbsp Aloe vera juice, 1 tbsp Chlorophyll, 1 c. water. I drink this every other day. I use Nature's Sunshine brand. For my gut health, I also use Organic ground flaxseed in some of my foods, like oatmeal, yogurt, cereals, and smoothies...I buy mine at Trader Joe's.
@@sanetclaassen1586 my daughter mixes three-forths cup aloe vera juice with one tablespoon psyllium husk and drinks it every night before bed. That's what works for her but you my have to adjust it to fit you. It took her a little bit to get it just right for her. She uses Walmart brand orange flavored psyllium husk and Fruit of the Earth aloe vera juice. Both bought in the Walmart pharmacy section. WARNING: Drink it quick or it will gel on you.
Mom knows best❤
Be very careful with psyllium husk. Just very minor, one teaspoon at first. It almost killed me when i foolishly mixed 3-4 tablespoons into a shake mix a year ago. It can literally turn to stone in intestines. It is great stuff if taken cautiously.
Agree; I take psyllium husk capsules and you have to make sure to drink enough fluid afterwards. I got careless about that and almost had to go to the E.R. for bowel blockage.
what i bought did say it needs to add a spoonful to warm water. it will turn into a gelatinous goo and it absorbs tons of water, a spoon turned like 1 dl into pudding. so it makes sense why.
Thank you for the amount warning. What is psyllium, derived from?
@@billpetersen298 it's a plant, google it, I think it's an indian grain/flower type. kind of crazy it has no lectins and can soak a huge amount of water, also one of the highest fiber content per gram, like 80%. tastes bland and kind of goey when soaked in warm water. made some tortillas with coconut flour and psyllium, acts as a gluten/eggs replacement, still not sticky enough but kind of good.
thanks for this 🎉 🙏
I had to take antibiotics last winter. I fought bad bacteria internally for almost a year. Apple cider vinegar was the one thing that really fixed my damaged gut biome.
Yea i been experimenting with acv. I notice when i soak beetroot in acv i get very good movements. Also not taking any more dairy has been a big help
I heard that antibiotics can kill all of your probiotics in your stomach!!!
@@kirkkirkland7244 yea they def did something like that 4 me. Stomach went crazy. I researched the antibiotic and its a fungus. A fungus that kills bacteria. I think taking milk after.... kept the antibiotic fungus growing. Im now 3 months milk free and still improving.
How much ACV did you take?
@@bcc7777 , One tablespoon of ACV in an 8 ounce glass of water, daily.
Keffir has completely changed my life …..amazing …..
Thomas, I must correct you on something. Inulin is found in Jerusalem artichoke, which is a different plant than a normal artichoke, which contains cynarine. So we are dealing with two different plants and potentially two different supplements made from those plants. Jerusalem artichoke is a root and normal artichoke grows above ground. Please correct this! Thanks 🙏🏼 all the best
Good to know! Thanks for posting. 👍
Absolutely correct!
Calm down, y'all.
@@coryportland the man is not a doctor so anything he says should be taken with a grain of salt i.e do your own research
@@dlilwon I will say he knows more than most doctors who are not well versed in nutrition
The biggest problem with the broad "eat more fruits and veggies" thing is that "more" doesn't help you understand 1. If you're already eating enough and 2. If you need to increase, how much do you need to increase? There was a cool paper that came out in 2018 that helped with this- it showed that people who consumed 30 or more unique plant foods each week had the healthiest, most diverse microbiomes. Since I started giving people an actual number to shoot for (30), it has radically changed my practice and the gut health of the people I help 🥰
How long do you wait to do a second biome census?
Thank you. I have heard similar from other Gastroenterologists, as well.
Interesting, thank you Dr DiNezza ~ Juice Plus has 30 different fruits & veg in one serving of the 3 types of "premium" capsules, fruit, veg, & berry .
Can you tell me where you can find this chart, thanks
@@manyBlessings2all juice has 0% fiber. dont take overpriced supplements. just eat the real fruit and vectables that are in season.
I wish I knew all this when my brother was alive and had Colitis. I have smoothies with most of this nearly everyday and still have no health problems (age 74)
Psyllium husk is nothing but Isabgol 😀 In India its kind of a tradition to give this with hot water or either almond oil or castor oil before bed every other week, especially after feasts in festive seasons of which there are many here
Brother can u tell me about this. M from India and want to try
Could you please let us know how much and how often. Would be helpful. Psillium husk or powder. Flax flour or whole seeds? Requesting your wisdom on this. Thanks!
@@beacon4677 flaky husk about a tablespoon with enough warm water so that it stays more like a loose gel and doesn't become a sticky dough. Either weekly or biweekly. Not too frequent obviously, any supporting intervention done regular and your body becomes dependent on it. Alternatively you can take a teaspoon of almond oil with a little bit of warm milk or same amount of castor oil with warm water

Every single day for years, I've had a stomachache. Less than two weeks ago I started drinking kettle and fire bone broth. It's amazing. Seriously, no more pain.
Hi what is kettle? I know bone broth but I don’t know what you mean fire broth?
@@elenaagurto7962 it’s a brand of broth one can buy at the supermarket. I’ve seen it at Whole Foods. Pricey, though.
@@christinet6336 thank you for your answer
I have been making kefir for several months here in the Philippines. Buying kefir grains online offered my choices of Irish, Belgium, Russian, and one other strain. The Belgium is the least "sour" and has the most varieties of good bacteria I read. Sauerkraut is also always home made.
Same. I bought mine from shopee. I got the belgian and its the most expensive one among the other strain. It taste like greek yogurt
You and your team make awesome content! Thanks so much
Hi I AM 42 years old man, I don’t drink alcohol, never smoked, no drugs etc. I have very eat life without stress and I would describe myself as a friendly and positive person- but 😂 I discovered just after 30 that I have very often headaches and them I have to go to the toilet few times- i stated to make a note with food I previously had- I have food intolerance after eating - celery , red and white cabbage, buckwheat, millet, barley, seafood, almonds, pistachios, cranberry, dry and fresh plums, raisins, oats, beef , turkey, duck, lamb and wild meats ( except chicken and pork) !! Also alkohol is not good for me , the same like wine ( especially red) I don't like beer, so I don't drink alcohol at all. I love white and green tea. I had meningitis when I was a child - if that helps. I have allergie or strong response from my body ( especially my eyes ) after taking acetylsalicylic acid. I have never had a stomach ache after eating anything in my life!!! I always have a headache first - it usually lasts up to 20 hours after eating and then I have to go to the toilet several times (I have slight diarrhea). I am 182 cm tall and I weigh 72 kg. I have an athletic figure, I don't have any diseases, I had hernia surgery when I was a child and once again at the age of 30, this time on both sides of my groin. I had few appointments with doctors and dietetics unfortunately, none of them was able to help me. I started to have strange symptoms : I had a very long-lasting cough for almost 3 months and now I feel like I have something in my throat and I have to cough quite often - I have such a hoarseness. I started to cure myself using / taking : Candex SIBO 45 Capsules ( contains : calcium, Grapefruit speed, Berberine oregano extract, Reishi) 2. L-Glutamine 500mg 90 Capsules 3. Glutamine power 4. Creatine monohydrate 5. Collagen peptides 6. Zinc Magnesium and B6 7. Vitamin B complex 8. Vit D3 9. AAKG. 10. Probiotics: 60 Billion CFU Pro Bio Cultures Complex - 60 Capsules (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Saccharomyces boulardii) Mastic gum Betaine HCl Sometimes I feel very well but them all symptoms returned to me again. I was thinking to start keto diet for a few weeks to see if that's will help me. Eliminate flours, sugars and dairy. Have you ever encountered a similar case or know how I can help myself?
Nice. I like that you’ve cited studies in your description section. The only reason I followed. Look forward to learning more.
Eating is becoming a arduous task. All these complications because of our food quality. If industrialization never took place and the farm to table system been left in place we would of been better off. I’m exhausted just trying to eat without concern of if the organic food they say is organic truly organic. Or if what they list in the ingredients are fact or did they intentionally leave something out. Let’s talk about bone broth. Whether I get it from box or cow, was the cow truly grass fed grass finished? 🙄🙄😞 Father help us please!!! P. S. Thank You Thomas for your willingness to help by sharing this info.
I feel you. I was told I was imagining things :D and after 6-8 years its come to the point where it's impossible for them to say I'm ok cuz the bloodtests say so. I really hate that organic foods are so extremely expensive...
Many stuff in the organic aisle is still sugary pasteurized crap. Wildly grown raw things may be better. I am on the carnivore diet right now and don't bother too much about 'organic' labels, it still makes a big difference to my well-being. If you know the farm personally, it's better though. Like the one where i get my milk and eggs. They look and taste different.
@@MS-sd1uz they really do. farmers market is way better. but not everyone has that option sadly. I'll work towards getting most of my foods from a farm instead. insanity how much power media has , companies and politics :/
Sounds like you’re on your way to deciding you’ll need to grow your own food to be absolutely sure. Welcome to the homestead food sovereignty rabbit hole 😅
@@mrwater2033 look into farm and garden co-ops. And community gardens.
Thankyou for explaining this! I've been waiting for bowel surgery for 3 years- covid shut that down too. I've decided I'm no longer getting it. Two weeks ago I went carnivore and haven't had ANY bowel or bone issues. I'm an advanced crohns sufferer I feel fantastic!!! . My biodome has also been under attack for years and I'm so happy to add these nutrients!!
I was about to mention carnivore when I read the first sentence. I also have had terrible bowel issues in the past, it became inflamed and I was in ICU with it, went on steroids etc. Carnivore has been the easiest way of eating out of them all (keto, low carb etc.). I'm so happy to hear you're improvements, I shared a hospital ward with someone who had crohn's, it's no joke. Really wish more people doing keto for health would at least try out carnivore. So happy you're feeling better :)
Carnivore and keto jacked me up. I haven't been the same since. Got diverticulitis. That diet is not for everyone.
Thank you so much for squeezing this in here. Your personal story may keep some of these people from the scalpel. I too am a Carnivore and though I never suffered from gut issues I am a huge beneficiary of the ideal human diet. It may not be some peoples cup of tea but it is everyone's best option to figure all their inners out.
@@reesedaniel5835 I'm curious how your diverticulitis was a result of a high fat, high protein diet. When one of the most common ways of addressing diverticulitis is a low fiber diet?
So happy to hear this ! Congratulations! My GF got on Carnivore after I kept telling her how good it was. Then I quit and in 8 months she looks/feels amazing! So now I have catch up to do lol
Thank you Thomas! I’ve been a listener for a few years now and have learned so much! I love that you always give the reasons behind everything too. Took me a long time to get on the intermittent fasting train but once I finally did I’ve been very happy and felt much better in many ways. God bless and happy new year! 🎉
Great video, backed by studies, concise and to the point🎉
Good job on this video, Thomas. I initially just looked at the list of foods a commenter listed. If I would have stopped there, I would have done myself a disservice. I wouldn't have eaten any of them. After watching your video, I've decided to try all 4 and some of the other foods you mentioned. I like the education I receive when I watch your videos. Thank you.
"Gelatin" good ( anti inflamation) ! When I was growing up my Mom always had jello on hand and when us kids was sick with say the flu or a cold we was given hot jello juice Great information ; thanks !
Psyllium, artichoke, bone broth, flax, and fermented foods. I picked up an Older slow cooker at a thrift store to constantly make bone broth. (The new ones shut off automatically after 9-12 hours. They are only good for meal preping.) I use bones ( about 6 drumsticks or 3 chicken feet.) I fill it with good water and add organic onion or garlic skins that I would otherwise compost. Any item I would compost, I add like: organic celery ends etc. Except mold I compost them directly. Then after I’ve used the rich bone broth for a week, I drain it and compost it. Thoroughly wash the slow cooker pot and start the whole process over. When I’m baking I add cup of rich bone broth to it. It tastes delicious. Then every night I drink one cup of the bone broth. As long as I do this, my nails are fine. If I stop for 2 weeks my nails will begin breaking and cracking. He’s right and it’s so easy and Cheap, the way I do it.
Could you please give me the recipe for making homage broth. I can't afford the ones at the store. ☺️
Thank you Thomas! Much appreciated... -Silvia NY
Thank you so much for such a thorough review of such a complicated issue, and filling in the gaps where conventional approach drops the ball
Love the how you refer to increasing diversity in the microbiome as 'risk management'! Given how much is left to be learned about the microbiome and specific strains, seems like the most reasonable/achievable route for gut health is via these foods rather than random megadosing of probiotic supplements. Thanks for sharing!
Thomas i learn so many words i never heard b4. Thank you so much for explaining how to the body works. What type of physillium is best. There's alot of stuff out there. Happy holidays to you and your family.
I use now brand but at the same time take Bentonite clay Powder with it.
several months ago I started studying more and more about nutrition and wellness,and watched various experts etc. to give credit where due......right now your videos are my goto and favorite
Love the way you break down these complex matters! ❤
This channel constantly delivers useful and fascinating information. Thanks Thomas!
I've been taking fibers for over 10 years which has hugely helped with my mental health
I buy organic psyllium husk and organic flax meal ( toasted and very tasty) on Costco online.. Mixing it 2:1 ratio and then drink it close to sleep time and Vu a la! Nest morning lots of outcomes. If you drink psyllium alone it's difficult to swallow.
I mix mine with inulin fiber, and raw cocoa powder
I knew about psyllium, flax bone broth gelatin and fermented foods, but artichoke was a complete surprise. Oddly enough I have been craving (and eating) fresh artichokes with garlic butter. I make my own kombucha, keifer and yogurt. Trying to get off sugar so this is a very inspiring video. Thank you so much!
What's flax -bone?
@@tehilagracie6466 Genius
@@Sconzette she didnt say "seeds" flax oil exists too.
@@turbompson4546 there is no fiber in the oil. The video talks about fiber.
@@turbompson4546 ok didnt realize thanks
Just an observation about Artichokes. When I go to Aldi's they have two different jars of Arrichokes. One jar with the green lid has the artichoke quarters in a brine. This is the jar that works for me. The other jar has the quarters in a vinegar base liquid and for some reason these do not have the same good effect. They are actually tastier but don't resolve the constipation like the other kind does. Weird but I'm happy to discover the ones that do work
Thanks for the tip about Aldi. I shop there regularly.
I'm a witness to the bone broth. I make it by the gallons. I freeze it. It last me a year.
Sounds interesting! Do you have a recipe for bone broth you can share?
@@worldupsidedown1 People on KZhead will show you. Just type how to make bone broth on youtube.
I truly appreciate that you show the scientific articles you are referencing to. I could tell that what you are saying is statistically significant and that you are not taking information out of context. This gives so much credibility to your videos.
Thank you. Will slowly begin to implement
Great short concise video on how to lay the foundation for improved gut health. Rather than just throwing (mostly inactive) capsule probiotics into an unhealthy environment where they most likely won’t take up residence anyway- good work!
Don't forget pomegranate is super good to help increase mucosal layer for tighter junctions.
Can you just drink the juice??
@@liberty8424 the juice is good 👍
Thank you very much Thomas...i wish you a lovely Christmas and a very happy New Year 🌲❣️❤️❣️❤️
This was amazing, thank you so much!

Not everyone can tolerate flax! And I'm one of those folks. He is promoting some really good things but "one size does not fit all"! You need to check out what you personally can tolerate.
Of course, that's with everything...yo do what works for you...
The only type of packaged fiber I've been able to tolerate is Benefiber that comes in the little individual packets.
flax seeds, no. flax meal, yes. flax milk, yes ..that is my experience.
I've been waiting for a video like this!
Great info, thanks!
Psyllium ... I prefer SLIPPERY ELM way more effective
Apples !! Not only for the fibers, they have a microbiome on their own !
My grandfather ate apples every day and taught me to do the same. We ate potatoes almost every day, also. My stomach is always good.😊
True that!
anyone can say anything similar. can you back it up by some studies?
@@PierreLaBaguette so, here is the scientific study on my grandfather, who ate apples every day. Number one, he lived to be 97 number two, he never had a stomach problem, number three, he never complained about constipation. So that’s my scientific study on my grandfather.
@@patriciap.9034 1) interesting. but you think this alone proves the point? 2) i think you understand the idea of scientific study too loosely

Thank you for sharing! This came at a time when I needed the most! Thank you for being a continuous blessing in our lives! Blessings to all and love and light!🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼
This one of your best videos - Having good gut health depends on variety. Eat moderate amounts of as wide a variety of foods as possible. Media keep coming up with new "superfoods" so try them but eat as wide a range as you can, including non-trendy ones. Pay attention to how each food makes you feel. If you suddenly lose mental focus, get bloating, or just feel miserable, then it's a sign that it wasn't such a great idea for you. .. and as an older person, I hope younger people understand that your gut biodiversity is going to be key to your gut health as you age.
👍💫🤩💝Wow, thank you, this is so good. I appreciate how you explain things and share the studies. For some strange reason for that last month I have been craving artichokes- just artichokes (and bone broth). So that’s what I have been eating. 🤩💝
Great video, Thomas! It was very informative and educational. Keep 'em coming!
Really appreciate this one! Thanks a lot 😍
This video speaks to my soul -- which, I believe, is in my gut. I'm all about gut health and I learned so much here!
There was a study that showed eating potatoes created the greatest diversity in the microbiome. You could cook the potato a day or two in advance to allow it more conversion of carbs to resistant starch and eat them when you're cycling off keto.
From what I saw the resistant starch hack works on blood suggar if consumed with fat. Butter or anything else
@@diegoplanes7183 It works with anything or by itself because resistant starch is not absorbed in digestion, rather it passes the stomach and feeds the microbiome organisms. That's why it's called resistant starch because it resists digestion and absorption.
Is it OK to warm the potato before eating after cooking it a day or two in advance?
@@diegoplanes7183 there are inflamatory oils to avoid LOL..all I use is Ghee,, coconut oil, Avacado oil and pure olive oil if you can find it. All the Seed oils like Canola, corn or Soy oil are inflamatory
@@southerngrandma4353 it's supposed to be ok
Thank You Thomas! Merry Christmas to you and family :) 🙏
Explosive!!! Been watching your videos for years. Thank you
May I ask, my grandfather who died at around 90. He drank brandy daily and smoked. A lot of centurions drank whiskey. Not to get loaded, but to improve mood! Mood may have a lot to with good gut health. Again? Don’t drink until one cannot function. Also, if anything turns one into a bad person, try not to do that. My grandfather was very happy until grandma passed and he passed shortly after in the late 1990s. However, my grandfather was a gymnast and became captain of a college football team at 5’10 at 170 lbs in the early 1930s! So, genetics has much to do with all around longevity. Soooo! And my grandfather also was mostly a steak and eggs guy. He did eat salads and so did grandma. Grandma left us due to diabetes and liver disease. It’s crazy how different everyone’s body is! If my grandma would’ve made it 10 more years,,? I think my grandfather would’ve been a centurion! But, he lost it when grandma passed. I don’t or didn’t blame him, at all! Over 75 years together. But! My grandfather drank brandy and then beer if he was eating mainly pizza! As my dad says, he was a genetically different human being.🤷🏿♂️🤷🏼♂️ just tossing my rant! I’ll be back for someone’s reply. Love folks❤️
to be fair, he wasn't exposed to the crap we are now. And the food was less fake.
There is one big short answer to your question, the do all end all factor in the end, which is: Genetics
@@niggasjit Yes, not whisky 😂
Your grandfather probably didn't eat seed oils. A major factor.
Exercises bigger bang than diet and sleep. Guessing previous generations worked physical jobs which offset any "bad" habits.
Thanks for all the great videos. You are so very knowledgeable. I've been taking two heap and teaspoons of psyllium fiber and raw cocoa powder for about the last 15 years, and have added inulin in the past year. Keeps me regular, and my cholesterol and triglycerides are perfect, despite eating a lot of eggs and bacon, etc. Take a few other things, spirulina, cylon cinnamon, creatine, beetroot powder. I always try and allow a couple of hours after the fiber before taking medications or eating anything with a lot of nutrients.
Cocoa contains quite some antinutrients. I think your other suggestions are more safe to supplement. But supplements alone don't make a whole diet anyway 🙈

Thank you! Very informative! 💫
I find that Asian food is really good for your gut because it has a lot of vegetables, and ingredients like ginger and curry which are also good for your gut.
i use organika grass fed bone broth & sports research gelatine to make a veggie soup ( 9 or more different vegetables). i add tomato paste & miso, everything bagel seasoning & chilli flakes to spice it up. when you put it in the fridge it becomes like a jello soup. every morning i eat a BIG bowl of this. feels so good and healthy, especially during the cold winter mornings.
Sounds great MJ Grant! Thanks for sharing

@@Oblisk oops, sorry, i thought it was grass fed but i just looked it up & it’s not. it’s non GMO though so that’s something. the brand is sports research. the bone broth is grass fed though, organika.

Your exactly right...I'm having serious issue and not absorbing properly...
great post I’ll still take pro/prebiotic when I want to boost my immune system. Carbonaut low carb bread has enough Psyllium per serving, I also use golden flax and chia to get a variety of fibre. Bone broth good analogy with the glutamine and gate wide apart.
Animal broth is a NoNo... Many Lentils, Pulses , Grams, Legumes, etc contain gelatine & collagen minerals require d without intake of bones & animals. Neither are Artichokes, Kimchi, Flax available everywhere, rarely if ever....!! Plenty of Other options are thre for, as options. !

@@222Hair oh okay thanks.
The problem with some of these is that they can irritate histamine intolerance and MACS. Like Bone Broth, especially. Just saying…
Yep!
I really needed this info. Thanks.
Rejuvelac!!! Make with wheat berries- saved my stomach!!!
I've tried and tried psyllium, but it doesn't work for me. I have read that acacia fiber is a good alternative, so I recently purchased it....haven't started consuming it. Is bone broth high in oxalates? If so, I suspect it's a good idea to consume calcium-based food with it? Or, does bone broth contain enough calcium to prevent an increase in oxalates?
I have a difficult case of IBS with part of my gut basicly paralyzed, bowel movement not normal I guess a spasm there or something, no gas, no normal bowel sounds.. I appreciate all sorts of gut related videos ✌🏼👍🏼
Have you tried high fat fairly strict carnivore
@@healthalways Yes, unfortunately my body doesn't digest fat well. Having issues with the runs since starting, 6mos in.
@@joen.8364 ouch, I'm sorry to hear that. Have you tried HCL? Ox bile? Other enzymes? Maybe you can find a professional masseuse with this specialty?
Psyllium and flax; and get more exercise. Add artichoke and improve the breaking down of fats. Change water to spring water. I'm hoping you well. It'd be interesting if you could do a micro study and report back after 3 weeks.
ALL grains are sprayed with GLYPHOSATE just before harvesting. That CAUSES gut problems. See Stephanie Seneff MIT professor starts at 19:30 ...see time stamps in comments: kzhead.info/sun/gNWQp8yfnqCYrK8/bejne.html
Thank you great information 👏👏
Excellent video - thank you 👍 Will Chia seeds do as well as Flax ? Has less omega 6 than flax ( but ratio of 3:6 very similar).
If we read the 70s book on the Ornish diet, he stopped studies with flax because of abnormal prostate numbers.
Great Thomas - Two questions: 1) Can psyllium be used every day? 2) Does psyllium prevent absorption of vitamins and supplements?
I used to use ground golden flax for baking and with yogurt, etc. I had tried the brown one as well. I also consumed flax oil with rice cakes and cheese for a few months. I learned many years later that flax oil is not safe for those who have bleeding issues.
Interesting, keep making these videos!
Thank you very interesting. I’ve taken a few rounds of antibiotics in the last few years and as well as dealt with a heavy load of stress. Im moving out of that cycle but have developed a sensitivity to a number of foods. I’ve been working on improving my diet and gut health and your video gave me a simple map to follow. Much appreciated.
RE: chronic diarrhea (SIBO/Pylori). Are psyllium husk, artichoke powder, and flax seed meal soluble fiber? If so, how much per day should I take? I think Thomas said about 7 grams of psyllium husk. I also drink homemade bone broth daily. Suggestions please. Thank you.
I also have chronic diarrhea from recurring SIBO infections. Psyllium is insoluble & speeds up my gut motility. Soluble fiber like Benefiber or Heather's Tummy fiber slows passage of food in my gut. I also drink bone broth w/ collegen for mucosal layer enhancement in my small intestines & eat fermented ( pickled) foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, pickled beets, cucumbers. I'm going to try baby artichoke hearts next & ground flaxseed .
@@lawrenceharada430 Will that help to HEAL Erosion Esophagus ???
nikkibaack-brooks6612 I agree with lawrenceharada430. I'm the one who has the IBS with predominant diarrhea. From further research & experimentation, I've found that too much fermented foods all at once can be bloating. Begin using it & fiber supplements slowly & in increments. I made the mistake of using fiber supplements, fibrous foods simultaneously & ended up in ER. I was so plugged up. Cindy
Thank you! God bless you!
Thank you for your videos. I binge watch them. You know about health and are a walking encyclopedia of information. Especially that night apple cider drink 🍸
Why is eating right so complicated and hard to do? My dogs never give it a second thought.
Haha 😊
Any recipes or measurements to give examples of how much and how to consume it?
Thank you for this information
Thank you very much!
Thank you for this very informative video. I have 3 questions: Do Artichoke hearts deliver the same health benefits?; Does Flax Seed oil deliver the same benefits of eating Flax Seeds?; Do the higher quality Pro, Pre & post Biotics equally supply and aid the Microbiome in the Gut?
Aldo Matulich, NO on flax oil. Any ground is good about a day, so must grind at home as needed. Because it was used to repair heart attack tissue, I switched to leaving them whole, and mixed in goat cheese with a strong oregano herb, and garlic in some, and the light grey salt that is so good for reducing heart attacks. The seeds soften so much they are easily ground by your teeth. That light grey salt is the only live one from Celtic. I'm using a table spoon or 2 several days a week. For heart attacks it was given a table spoon or 2 per hour, immediately. Seventy % more healing to hearts of these people than those receiving no goat cheese and flax, but these people had the flax ground not premixed, I don't know if they had teeth. A bunch of people in a small study. Russian study, female doctor.
Thank you for the wonderful info. Dr DeLauer. Just wanted to share, If you are going to use Psyllium husk ,drink plenty of water with it.
Thanks Doc 👌
Thanks for the information
Great, Great Job!
I started keto because of chronic brain fog, forgetfulness,fatigue and bloating. Everything but the bloating has improved. What I have too much psyllium husk it makes me constipated. I have to be really careful of my vegetable intake.
I went to the gastroenterologist for constipation and she said take psyllium husk capsules she said I take them. I got excited thinking this is going to work. I took them and became more constipated and I drank the suggested water with them. Plus they made me bloat out.
One green tea, 2 max per day. 👍
As an IBD patient, I only agree on the fermented products.
No bread for you
@@riverside321 I can have bread. It just has to be white. Or sour dough, which is fermented.
Maybe you need to focus on whatever heals your gut at this stage - slowly add foods you can cope with ?
So interesting about bread. Can depend on the country you are in. In Italy and Germany I can usually eat the bread - I think it’s because they do not add stuff to the flour
@@redzeppelin24 Why only white/ sourdough? I presume Gluten triggers your IBD, but white/ sourdough has gluten in it too?
So much helpful information!
Thanks. This is great. Items I knew about other than the artichoke. I’m dealing with SIBO and it’s waning by doing a number of things and flax and psyllium both. Thx for bone broth company.
