Want to lose Fat and Keep It Off? Start With The Gut
During
January 7-10, over 150 doctors and clinics around the nation gathered
for Brimhall Homecoming 2021, even with all of the quarantines and
restrictions. Fifty more were on life stream. This year's theme is the
motivational and inspirational message "I. C.A.N." We set the World on
Fire with knowledge and enthusiasm.
I. C.A.N stands for "Innovative Care and Nutrition". Doug Grant/Optimal
Health Systems, Drs. John and Brett Brimhall, Dr Marc Harris, Dr Dennis
Harper, Dr Patrick Porter, Dr Vaughn Cook and other top leaders in
Health and Wellness care are educating and training doctors on the
latest research, protocols and the most advanced nutrition available.
We are a “Master Mind Group”, inviting you to join us and put all of our
like-minds together to create more wellness in the world. We want
everyone 100% believing I CAN. I CAN achieve optimal health, optimal joy
in service, and optimal prosperity in each aspect of my life.
This includes achieving an optimal healthy weight and positive outlook on life.
2020 Saw a record weight gain in record time across the nation. We want
to help you and your patients to achieve their optimal weight and
fitness.
While we have quite a few products and programs that help with weight
loss and overall fitness, we want to start off the year with something
simple: Flora Blitz 100.
If you’ve ever tried to eat healthy but kept falling off the wagon,
there’s hope. You’re not the one craving sugar and greasy food; it’s the
bad bacteria that survive and thrive off junk food. Good bacteria love
those raw fruits and vegetables.
If you can get your gut microbiome squeaky clean, you can not only be
super healthy, you can put an end to those food cravings. You can stick
with the dietary lifestyle you know you should. You just need to
reprogram your gut first.
Flora Blitz 100
delivers a surge of healthy bacteria to kill off the bad bacteria
triggering the unhealthy cravings. This allows you to jump back on the
healthy food wagon and give yourself a chance to develop permanent,
healthy dietary habits.
Biohack Your Gut Bacteria to Boost Your Mood, Happiness and Promote Healthy Food Cravings
More and more scientists are referring to the gut as “the second brain.”
So much information is processed there that it’s easy to begin to
wonder who--or rather what--is in control of our bodies when you start
falling down that rabbit hole. The twist is that there's a lot of truth
to it and an incredible amount of new research is proving this.
Researchers have found that the bacteria in your gut really do influence
your emotions.
It is true. Gut bacteria have been implicated in a range of conditions
that affect mood, especially depression and anxiety. Emotions are
generated in your brain but the bacteria in your gut influence in ways
your five senses don’t. What research has discovered is that there are
bacteria that can make you feel good and bacteria that make you feel
bad. Gastrointestinal complaints have long been associated with
depression, anxiety, insomnia, and many other dis-eases we previously
thought of as solely “mental” illnesses.
The World Health Organization (WHO) rates depression and anxiety as the
number one cause of disability, affecting 300 million people worldwide.
The link between your gut and the brain shakes up the belief that mental
illness is purely a chemical imbalance in the brain. This also changes
how we can potentially treat it, too.
How Does the Gut Communicate with the Brain?
Near the turn of the century, researchers discovered that microbes
produce almost every neurotransmitter found in the human brain,
including serotonin and dopamine, your feel-good chemicals. The thing is
that the brain has this thing called the “blood-brain barrier” to
protect it from outside influence. This is supposed to prevent cells,
particles, and certain molecules--including neurotransmitters--from
getting in, but here is where microbes seemingly breaking the rules.
It wasn’t until 2017 when researchers finally figured out how the two
were connected: by special cells in the gut lining. Said cells can
detect neurotransmitters produced by microbes, resulting in a pulse
being triggered in the vagus nerves (located in your brain), thus
directly connecting the gut to the brain. More evidence suggests that
the gut microbes and the molecules they produce can directly modulate
the integrity of the blood-brain barrier, too.
Researchers have also discovered a link between gut bacteria and the way
healthy people process emotions. Kirsten Tillisch and Emeran Mayer,
both at the University of California, Los Angeles, examined the gut
microbes of 40 women, dividing them into two groups: those with lots of
bacteria from the genus Prevotella, and those with lots from the genus
Bacteroides.
Using MRIs to observe specific parts of the brain while women viewed
emotionally disturbing images, researchers discovered that each group
had distinct brain activity. The group with sufficient Protella bacteria
had less activity in the hippocampus, which is correlated with
depression.
Tillisch and Mayer took their findings a step further by influencing the
way people’s brains processed emotions by feeding them probiotics.
Brain scans revealed that ingesting certain probiotics regularly
affected the activity and connectivity in the emotion centers in the
brain, producing changes associated with healthier emotional processing.
Bacteria and Food Cravings
With all this happening in your gut, there’s another major connection
going on: bacteria and food cravings. Since bacteria can trigger certain
emotions, they can also trigger certain food cravings. The new science
surrounding the microbiome provides many opportunities for developing
products that can mediate GI function and thereby influence overall
health.
If you’ve ever tried to eat healthy but kept falling off the wagon,
there’s hope for you yet. You’re not the one craving sugar and greasy
food; it’s the bad bacteria that survive and thrive off junk food. Good
bacteria, on the other hand, love those raw fruits and vegetables.
Bacteria are far more genetically diverse than humans, meaning they can
be programmed and reprogrammed with ease, reacting immediately to
stimuli while humans try to pass on the right DNA through their
offspring. Bacteria have genes that can be flipped on and off through
various stimuli, like interaction with each other, metabolites, toxins,
exercise and diet.
Bacteria are constantly taking in information from our bodies and brains
and sending messages back. Studies show that diet and supplementation
are the primary influencers of microbial balance and gut health.
Dysbiosis cause a wide range of disorders: obesity, neurodegenerative
issues, and functional and inflammatory diseases, including everything
from cardiovascular disease to irritable bowel disorders and more.
What this means for you is, if you can get your gut microbiome squeaky
clean, you can not only be super healthy, but you can also put an end to
those food cravings. You can stick with the dietary lifestyle you know
you should. You just need to reprogram your gut first.
