pancreas what are you making your heart cells out of right what is the long-term ramifications of of a diet protocol like that and so here's the the term that i again impressing upon culture is epic caloric control we mentioned the quality of food briefly but another one of these major controllers is the microbiome and i know that of course you had folks talking about this on the show but i want to take this to another level because this has to do with your body's processing of calories and research this was published in the journal cell really crazy study they discovered that there's a certain bacteria that they found in mice that blocked their intestines from absorbing as many calories from the food that they ate all right now through the lens of allopathic medicine we just need to bottle up whatever bacteria that is and sell that just block people's intestines that's it you know block people's intestines from absorbing as many calories you can keep eating what you want not understanding your body does not operate in a vacuum there's no such thing as side effects these are direct effects because everything's interconnected one of the things i saw early on in my clinical practice probably five years into it i've been in this space for NUMBER_TOKEN years but NUMBER_TOKEN years in clinical practice probably about five years into it i came across a study because so many people were coming in statins were like they were the hottest thing on the streets all right because that everybody was coming in on statin and there was a study that came out revealing that folks taking a statin had a NUMBER_TOKEN increased incidence of having diabetes now all right something was happening with creating abnormal blood sugar you know does this have to do with the beta cells does it have to do with insulin sensitivity you know that was open for debate but we knew that it was happening and so when you when you try to treat that symptom with okay we just need to get everybody this bacteria is this going to affect my bacteria's ability to produce bNUMBER_TOKEN is it going to affect my bacteria's ability to produce short-chain fatty acids to protect my gut lining and prevent autoimmune conditions we can't think about in those terms so here's where we do think about it all right so they discover this bacteria now we transition this over to humans this was from researchers at the weizmann institute so tom in my practice i could have somebody send out for a stool sample never even see them a day in my life i can get their report back and know with a high degree of certainty whether or not they're obese based on the makeup of their microbes that is insane and so the research questions really fast while you're on that side note what comes first do you just have a bad roll of the dice and you came out of your mother's womb and the microbiome that you formed happened to be obesity promoting or is it your diet the microbes respond to the fact that you're eating cheetos and all that kind of stuff all your cheese like products uh yeah which which comes first it's a both end world it's a both and world time because we are getting that download specifically from our mother but one of the studies was done in identical twins right you don't get more similar of a person to study or people to study to see the effects of one thing or the other than identical freaking twins man when they find a
