The roses are in bloom and gardens scintillating. But you cannot stop to smell and enjoy the lovely scent because you are already on Claritin allergy medication.

Is lactose intolerance really SIBO?
Evidence is growing demonstrating that intolerance to lactose is really just yet another manifestation of SIBO, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.
In a small Australian study, for instance, of 10 elderly people with lactose intolerance, 90% had SIBO (by lactulose H2 breath testing); eradication of SIBO reversed lactose intolerance in all initially SIBO-positive participants. Likewise, in an Italian study, lactose intolerance was associated with SIBO; eradication of SIBO resulted in most people being freed from lactose (as well as fructose and sorbitol) intolerance.
It is part of the disruption of the digestive process ...

The best podcast on health: The Shift
Australian naturopath Katherine Maslen contacted me several months ago asking if I would provide an interview for her The Shift podcast series on health. I agreed and Katherine showed up on my doorstep sometime later. We sat for several hours in my dining room while she recorded my comments.
Katherine has done likewise with health experts from around the world to assemble what I think is the finest podcast series on health that I have come across. In addition to my comments, she obtained conversations from my friends, Dr. David Perlmutter, Dr. Leo Galland, chef Pete Evans and others with unique ideas about health, h...

Supporting your newborn ’s health: Intestinal colonization after elective cesarean section
This study confirms meta-analyses of smaller studies in the United States that suggest that cesarean section deliveries are risk factors for development of allergy and autoimmune disease. Elective cesarean section deliveries have increased from 5% in 1970 to 25% in 2010 in the US, while at the same time the incidence of autoimmune diseases has increased in Western society over the last several decades, and there may be a correlation.
Altered intestinal colonization in medically-indicated vs. elective cesarean sections
We have learned that major changes in intestinal colonization occur after elective cesarean sections (thos...

It ’ s not yogurt
We have been discussing how, by fermenting dairy or coconut milk products with Lactobacillus reuteri ATCC PTA 6475 and DSM 17938, we boost hypothalamic release of oxytocin that, in turn, yields increased dermal collagen, smooths wrinkles, accelerates healing, improves bone density, restores youthful strength and muscle, increases libido, and shuts down appetite.
Unfortunately, some people have misinterpreted this to mean that consuming yogurt in any form achieves these effects—not true. So let’s clear up this confusion.
To call something “yogurt,” by (semi-arbitrary) FDA guidelines, it must be ferme...

Gut Pathogens celebrates its 10th anniversary
Gut Pathogens was founded in 2009 as a journal focusing on enteric infections and aimed at an audience in the Global South and middle income countries. The focus of the first articles remained directed at virulence, epidemiology and genomics of classical pathogens. However, soon after the developments in the field of probiotics turned the journal into a preferred venue for research on this topic.
Furthermore, parallel developments in genomics of bacteria resulted in an increase of short articles documenting bacterial genomics, and this led us to create a new short article type called Genome Announcements. Soon after, the s...

Should L. reuteri yogurt be part of your weight loss efforts?
When the Wheat Belly lifestyle, especially the complete program as Wheat Belly Total Health or Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox, are followed, the majority of people experience weight loss, often dramatic.
Is there any additional weight loss advantage to adding our Lactobacillus reuteri yogurt? I believe there is.
This is because L. reuteri:
Has been shown in experimental models to prevent weight gain from unhealthy foods—meaning that backpedaling on weight loss is less likely to occur.
Boosts hypothalamic release of oxytocin that reduces appetite even further, the so-called anorexigenic effect, adding to the appetit...

H2 Breath Detection: Game-Changer for Gastrointestinal Health
Anyone who remembers the days before finger stick blood glucose meters became available to people with diabetes will recall how awful life was for diabetics. All they had was urine dipsticks which were sloppy, yielded only crude non-quantitative feedback on blood sugars, and gave you a gauge of what blood sugars were in the recent past, not the present. It meant that dosing insulin or diabetes drugs was grotesquely imprecise and accounted for many episodes of hypoglycemic coma and acceleration of diabetic complications. It was not uncommon in those days, for instance, for a type 1 diabetic to be blind and experience kidney...

FDA curbs unfounded memory supplement claims
I must have seen the commercial for Prevagen 50 times. Perhaps you’ve seen it, too: “You might take something for your heart… your joints… your digestion. So why wouldn’t you take something for the most important part of you… your brain? With an ingredient originally found in jellyfish! Healthier brain, better life!”
Like many heavily-advertised supplements, this one makes many claims. The bottle promises it “improves memory” and “supports: healthy brain function, sharper mind, clearer thinking.” Never mind that the main ingredient in jellyfish (apoaequorin) has no known role in human memory, or that ...
