today we're going to talk about the biggest lie or myth about your gut microbiome this will be a game changer if you ask chat PT WebMD or Google do antibiotics permanently Wipe Out the microbiome the answer you're going to get is no that is such a big lie if you really understood what happens when you take an antibiotic or something to wipe out some of your microbes or all of your microbes and the consequences of what happens to them you would think twice about taking antibiotics iotics now I'm not just talking about antibiotics I'm talking
about cortical steroids as in predone I took that every year for probably 7 to 10 years for my poison ivy junk Foods severely destroy your microbiome another thing that was patented as an antibiotic glyphosate that's the herbicide Roundup Ready I mean I've had antibiotics my whole life and I had no idea the long-term effects that those create antibiotics wipe out certain strains of good microbes from your body which you had as an abundant microb now was replaced by something else and that alteration is called disbiosis and chances are you have an increased population of antibiotic
resistant microbes I didn't know that that's huge and it's very important to know what those strains are and to figure out how you can get them back that's what I'm going to talk about today some of the microbes that are wiped out are called Keystone microbes if eliminated affects the entire eco system of your gut it can really put you at risk for all sorts of inflammatory conditions autoimmune diseases allergies etc etc now before we kind of get into it too much I think the really important thing to know is that 99% of your genes
are not yours they're microbial you're mostly microbes you have a much lower percentage of actual human cells so our bodies have like 20,000 genes the microbiome has 3 million so on one hand if you have the right microbiome you can have a good immunity you can have low risk of disease you can make all your neurotransmitters on the other hand if we have an alteration of your microbiome over here and too many bad bacteria versus the good you're going to have leaky gut you're going to be more susceptible to autoimmune diseases small intestinal bacteria overgrowth
and then those microbes in the wrong place are going to steal your nutrition so you're going to have nutritional deficiencies and the question is how do we get the right Keystone bacteria back there's no yogurt that you can get that has even close to the number of microbes that you have in your body but the good news is there's really only maybe five to seven keystone species that can help put things into balance you see a lot of the microbes that are missing that you no longer have can be increased by just changing the environment
and feeding the microbes certain things prevotella is missing in 70 to 80% of the population this is the microb that that helps you balance your blood sugar this is the microb that normally is supposed to get rid of oxalates I don't know if you've heard about oxalates but that's the thing that can increase your risk for kidney stones and that's the microbe that really gets killed off when you take antibiotics all right next one is this weird name acrania if you're deficient in this you're not going to be able to produce the mucus barrier that
protects you against pathogens you're also going to have a risk of metabolic syndrome and obesity in 40 to 60% of the population is deficient in this micro but hang in there I'm going to show you how to increase some of these microbes all right next one is feal bacterium if you're deficient in this you're going to have more inflammation and more risk of autoimmune diseases 30 to 50% of the population is missing this microbe so many diseases originate in the gut and now you know why because if you don't have that microbe that's supposed to
protect you then you're susceptible to getting that disease all right last one is Rino cacus 50 to 60% of the population is missing this one and if you're deficient you're going to lose the ability to digest certain fibers from Plants this could explain why so many people just when they even have a salad or any vegetables boy they just get bloating and they do not do well but they thrive on the carnivore diet interesting so here's the secret okay you can change the environment that your microbiome lives in so let's just go through the list
of things that you can take polyphenols you can get polyphenols in green tea and also in certain vegetables garlic onions asparagus you can change the environment to increase the diversity of microbes consuming fermented things like sauerkraut kimchi pickled vegetables things like that there's a microb called bacterio fragilis This is a microb that most people have right now but what's interesting is what it does it resists tumors and cancer with this catch22 you must also have enough vitamin D and this is why vitamin D is such a powerful anti-tumor anti-cancer vitamin and of course if you
already have leaky gut okay there's several things you should know number one zinc carnosine is one of the best remedies L glutamine is good bone broth colostrum can help heal a leaky gut and doing intermittent fasting all can help now I save the best microb for last this microb is missing in 95 to 96% of the population it is so important because it prevents small intestinal bacterial overgrowth it makes seven natural antibiotics that kill only the bad bacteria and leave the good guys alone it increases the population of other good microbes without even taking those
microbes but even more importantly it increases a super highlevel hormone called oxytocin now oxytocin is typically known uh when women are lactating breastfeeding or they're in contractions to release the baby but oxytocin is also considered the the bonding or love hormone it does lower cortisol it also increases the thickness of your skin this microbe can be cultivated so in other words you can make it into this yogurt compound with high levels of this single microbe to create a therapeutic effect on your body in this video I'm going to show you how to do it after
an interview I do with uh Dr William Davis the doctor wrote the book super gut where I learned this information on this amazing micro so I want to show you this interview with him and then I'm going to roll right into how to make it and after you make it you put in the fridge and you just consume like a half a cup of day and if you want to make more you actually don't need any more probiotics you already started with one capsule that you'll mix in with this concoction which I'm going to explain
how to make it and then what you do is you take two tablespoons of this probiotic mixture you made to start the next batch and you can keep doing this over and over and over it's actually very inexpensive but let's just roll right into Dr William Davis's interview how did you kind of isolate or stumble on this very specific microb I mean there's other microbes but I think the the main one you talk about a lot is the the L or lactobacillus ruter ey so can you tell me a little bit about how you kind
of stumbled on that microb versus other ones well it was real simple you know I make most of my uh ideas by mistake by making big blunders so so that that's how I came to the Wheat Belly idea Trying to minimize the expression of small LDL particles as you know the real cause for heart disease not this nonsense about LDL olol so I saw people you and I have a lot of success in helping people regain health and so with wheat grain and grain elimination sugar elimination and a handful of common nutrients that are lacking
in Modern Life and we see all kinds of wonderful things like a reversal of type two diabetes loss of fatty liver weight loss Etc but it was clear that was incomplete even when I added some basic microbiome strategies like a high pocy multispecies probiotic or Prebiotic fibers and fermented foods I still saw some residual problems for instance somebody says my rheumatoid arthritis is much better I got rid of the biologic injections I got rid of the prednisone but I'm still taking the proxin uh as needed for occasional mild flareups why so I looked for what
else was there was and I started thinking about the hormone oxytocin I don't even remember why there's a really crazy set of Frankenstein experiments being conducted conducted by a woman named Arena Conboy she's been at Harvard Stanford I think she's now UC Berkeley and she did something really creepy they took an old rat and cloned it so that they got a young rat that was immunologically and genetically identical and then connected their circulatory systems yuck well then this is called they called it heterochronic parabiosis two times next to life well lo and behold the old
rat becomes Young and so they ask what's the what are the mediators that work is ongoing but the first mediator they isolated they're a bunch of peptides the First Media they they isolate was oxytocin what people regard as the hormone of love and empathy what some ladies regard as the drug they get to induce labor when they're pregnant at at term delivery term pregnancy well then an MIT group a cancer group we exploring the anti-cancer effects of lactobacilus rodite and they discovered all kinds of unexpected effects the first thing they observed was that their fur
in their words became rich and luxurious wow so they started doing all kinds of crazy things to these mice like inflicting wounds in their skin and watch healing time cut by half they watched old mice become young again so for instance if you look at muscle that's atrophied in older mice uh young muscle cells come back their libido their their mating behavior comes back back their the immune system is Amplified in other words it changed they even did this they did a crazy study they gave two groups of mice a lousy diet purposefully meant to
mimic fast food the mice that got just fast food got fat and old and lost their hair stopped mating they got old and died mice who got same crappy diet but with roty stayed slender Rich fur mated they stayed young until death so okay so so this experiment with the mice I think that was the missing point they gave them a certain microbe El rudai because of because of oxytocin they wanted to increase it they they they did but they didn't set out to do just that they kind of stumbled on that so like a
lot of things I do lot this was by accident so they wanted to understand first of all why that rich luxurion fur issue and it became clear they opened a whole Pandora's box of effects well I got that same microb it was available commercially from a Swedish company but it was available as tablets for infants so very Teensy weeny doses so I I simply reasoned let's ferment it as something that looks like yogurt but we're going to ferment it using prolonged fermentation so rorai will you know as you recall microbes don't have sex there's no
mommy daddy male female microb they just double so ride doubles every three hours at human body temperature so I made yogurt it's not yogurt of course it looks and smells like yogurt but I used prolonged fermentation uh I allowed 12 doublings I perform something called flow cytometry just a way to count microbes and we get 300 billion so far more about a thousandfold more than the original tablets for babies I just started talking about it gave to all my neighbors I started eating it okay so the question I have is so when you um you
did you initially know how to do that or did you just go uh okay me try something and I guess that didn't work did you how did you know to ferment it for 36 hours hit and miss okay and then I did repeated flow cytometry counts it became clear the the number I first picked 36 hours was The Sweet Spot that's where you get maximum number at least as yogurt and if you go to 48 Hours you get a plateau you actually get an increase in dead microbes so 36 hours which by the way is
very different than what they do in commercial yogurt making which is yeah 6 to 12 hours it's ridiculous so so I guess the reason um at first did you think well I think we'll just take this microb as a supplement right you were you thinking at first like oh we'll just take it and we it'll work just by taking it you know you can but the the quantity of in the original product which which called bioag gastrous GA g-r us the infant tablets so when you take it nothing happens when I called the company I
talked to EXA I said hey I'm playing with this yo this your your tablet is making yogurt they say you can't no one's ever made yogurt from it and they said we don't know anything about that MIT nonsense don't call us again they essentially shut it all down so I okay fine so I made the yogurt and now we have thousands and thousands of people doing it and the crazy thing is so as as elegant as that MIT work was we're learning new lessons both from Human Experience and some limited efforts in clinical trials we're
seeing all kinds of things happen but you know what as you know usually when you see stuff happen in mice it's usually not corroborated in humans it falls apart in this instance to my great surprise everything seen in mice has proven true in humans wow so we see a restoration of youthful musculature an increase in strength guys older guys over 50 get about a 50% rise in testosterone ladies get AR rest older ladies get a restoration of vaginal moisture and sensation there's an increase in libido which leads some very embarrassing stories uh there is uh
I presumptive increase in the immune respones people seem to get better faster there's an acceleration of healing from minor wounds uh and I tell this to ladies you know I'm sure your audience a lot like mine my audience is 87% female they all say this to me incredibly they say oh we don't care about muscle and immune response we just want better skin I said what all right fine so I did a little clinical trial ladies big ladies I said don't change your diet don't change your exercise program just take these that was rorai I
added some other things to amplify the skin effects collagen peptides hyaluronic acid and the coronoid AES anthon and we did high resolution skin ultrasound and we showed a big increase in dermal thickness ladies are thrilled because they lose their crows feet and their smile lines BL wow but I happen to measure the waist circumference just it's free you I don't you and I don't have the budget of farmer we don't have billions of dollars to spend we have maybe you know tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to spend in our clinical trials so I
measured waste circumference free and to my great surprise this was Christmas Eve I get the waste circumference I said no way they lost huge amount of waist circumference up to eight and a half inches no change in diet even more remarkably they didn't lose weight well how can that be well I think consistent with the animal evidence and what I'm seeing Lally play out in thousands of people is you lose abdominal fat but you restore youthful muscle we're seeing that play So I think what we've St what I stumbled on by accident this is a
way to shift body composition the complete opposite by the way of these garbage glp1 Agonist drugs yeah that of course cause loss of huge loss of muscle guarantees weight regain so a person has a choice stop the drug and see your health deteriorate when you regain all the weight as fat or stay on the drug forever and be held hostage by the pharmaceutical Industries so I I think even one of your videos you mentioned you personally gained how much muscle mass so in my 60s in my 60s I gained about 13 pounds of muscle and
F my my strength increased by 50% uh and you know I I mentioned to you in emails I hate going to the gym I can't stand it right so I go 15 minutes on a busy week I go 15 minutes once a week I haven't been to the gym in five months by the way but I do other things but uh so that's what I'm seeing now I don't know if that happens to everybody I do see ladies they get M mad at me they say hey I'm doing your program in the road I gained
eight pounds I asked him have you looked in the mirror have you measured your waist I said well yeah my waist is smaller my shoulders are firmer my thighs and buttocks and neck are firmer so presumptive we got to do this more formally like do a dexa study or something like that formally quantify the shift and mus and all that business but you know all we're doing though right is replacing things that you should have had in your body all along okay so this microb obviously we were supposed to have it initially and I'm guessing
some past antibiotic wiped it out or bad food or something and I think I think you mentioned even in your book or another video that what percentage of the population just doesn't have this microbe anymore about 96% %c gosh so it is it is very susceptible as are many lacto baceline to Common antibiotics so if you took amoxicillin 30 years ago for an upper Resturant it wiped out all your Rite what's so fascinating about that is if we sequence the microbiomes of somebody living the highlands of New Guinea or the Brazilian Rainforest in the Amazon
people unexposed to antibiotics Etc they all have Rite they all have if we see wild mammals like deer or giraffes or lions they all have ruter I suggesting it's necessary for Maman Health it's us who've lost it the original Discoverer Dr Gard reuter said it was everywhere in the 1960s he got it from the breast milk of a German breastfeeding mom and he found it in stool and other body fluids over his 40-year academic career he found increasingly difficult to find it started to disappear and since then that's been corroborated it's virtually disappeared from the
human microbiome and I think that's why we're seeing such over-the-top effects restoring something people have lost and doing so at very high counts wow so so then what happens you lose this microbe which also by the way tends to protect against small intestinal bacterial overgrowth right does a lot of things in the small intestine too and then it it probably because it's not there then you start getting this Invasion from the large intestine climbing up to the small intestin is that what happens to sometimes exactly yes so loss of those beneficial species this this species
of lacts and others allow the over proliferation of proteobacteria feal microbes like Eola and klebsiella that have taken up residents in uh virtually half the US population so it's it's probably the worst epidemic to ever occur in our species and there's there's there's there science behind that but um so we have 24 of small intestine Infested by fecal microbes now as you recall the small intestine is very permeable that's where we absorb nutrients so when those microbes that live and die over just a period of a few hours they don't live very long they release
some of the components of their cell walls such as the endotoxin component that gains ax your bloodstream that's called endotoxemia of course and that is a major driver of weight gain dementia it's probably one of the most important factors causing multiple forms of cancer Tye 2 diabetes cognitive impairment so in other words it's going to cause us to re reconsider virtually all human disease in light of the contribution initiation or exacerbation of endotoxemia some of these bad microbes these pathogens they either leak off or release um something negative about that that then forms um this
infection that gets into the bloodstream that starts creating a a Cascade of bad effects yes so you know people have suspected this issue of gut leak for many decades but it finally got corroborated by Patrice KY and his Belgian group in 2007 and since corroborated numerous times since it is a major driver it it it terrifies me to think how we didn't know about this thing the great thing about rotari is so most microbes colonize the colon only right the large intestine yeah the rotay colonize the 24 ft of small intestine and the colon wow
where it takes up residence and does something wonderful it produces what are called bacteria sins natural antibiotics effective against fecal microbes so the loss of rorai probably was a big part of the reason why this happened and restoring rorai is a big part of the solution to correct that Pro so we're seeing sibo recede via normalization breath hydrogen gas with restoration of lacil ride but I've combined it with lactobacilus gaseri because that's another big bacteria produc and small intestinal colonizer and then we've thrown in a strain of basilla subtilus or suus because of its extraordinary
bacteria and so far making yogurt yogurt out of those three we get about 90% normalization of breath hydrogen gas and all the wonderful effects that accompany that weight loss PLO are broken hemoglobin a when C finally goes below five uh all that kind of great stuff happens just by restoring these Keystone I think are Keystone microbes via something that looks and smells like yogurt and also your sleep right and oh I'm a chronic insomnia terrible for decades with rotay I sleep wonderfully not everybody gets that maybe half the people get that and by the way
uh there are some other microbes that have magnificent effects on sleep another one is lactobacilus KCI churot strain that's available as this goofy little product called yakul it's a it's an awful little product it's skim milk and sugar uh but it's a good source of that microb and so as a chronic Insomniac I take the ruite sleeping eight nine hours straight through rare Awakenings I add the KCI shirota as as yogurt I sleep 12 hours a night I had to stop it because it was so overwhelming that it varies among people you know but uh
it's it's and these are effects not yet described in the scientific literature so because we're experiencing it on a on a large scale you stumbled on something that's so fascinating to me um because I'm into the farming and the soil and the microbes this is like but this is all human body stuff I definitely want to stay connected and and keep picking your brain but um so there's a book that I highly recommend everyone go out and get it's um super gut and also I'm going to put your website down below and you also have
a course uh I'll put some information about um what the specific microbe that you recommend because there's different strains uh and you have you figured out the right strain so that's going to be really key to get that I'll put that link down below but wow this is huge I'm so interested in this topic uh I'm just blown away but um anyway I wanted to just pull you on and and not take too much of your time but I want to thank you for that data and uh and also I'm gonna I'll just going to
roll right into next how to make this if someone wants to make it and uh if they want details uh they can go to your your blog site how about that terrific yeah you know my one of my interests is this is all happening right yeah at a time of record social isolation divorce suicide is at record levels 36% increase between 2 2020 and I did not know this the psychology Community has been formally measuring and tabulating the rise of narcissistic behavior and that curve looks like this 45 degree incline so now we have a
way perhaps we can't address all social ills of course with yogurt perhaps we can have an impact because of the restoration what I'm seeing is a restoration of the intensity of love and affection for other people desire for human companionship increase in generosity and the acceptance of other people's opinions so that's my goal in doing all this I think we can change human behavior in a good way I can get behind that that's awesome well done thank you so much thank you so this is very simple how we make this we're going to take uh
the probiotic one capsule and then we will open it up and then we're going to take inulin this is a tablespoon take two take organic half and a half just to make make a paste mix it up really good don't put too much of that uh half and half in there right off the bat just about 2 tablespoons and then we can pour the rest of this half and half in there one quart going to mix this up really good take a container two containers We'll pour some of this in here even it out pretty
good okay we're putting this mixture into the yogurt maker we have two of them right very carefully okay now we have to add water to it so I'm going to pour the water like so and I want that level to be at the same level as the mixture inside the containers we now have the water at the level of a little bit more than I wanted so that's fine okay here's the next part and of course if you have a different machine you're going to have to just do the same type of thing on the
left we have temperature and time so we can press this once okay and then we want this at 99° Fahrenheit so we're going to bring this down okay and then press start on that and then now what we're going to do we have 8 hours we're going to go up to 36 hours okay and then we press start again and guess what we're done we're going to put the top on it and then we're going to wait for 36 hours and then after that's done we are going to then put it in the refrigerator for
storage okay we're pulling out of the refrigerator after 36 hours and leaving in the refrigerator for a couple hours to cool down and now we're going to consume a half of a cup of this every single day it's amazing it's Rich it's delicious you can add uh berries to it if you need to add a sweetener uh go ahead but I think you'll find it quite delicious a half a cup a day
