    Your Gut Microbiome: 3 Facts that will BLOW your Mind

    Meet your gut microbiome, the microbes in your gut. The microbiome can help you lose weight, fight inflammation and prevent diabetes. A look at 3 mind-blowing facts about the gut microbiome.Today we look at our microbiome, the bugs in our gut. It can help us lose weight and avoid disease. How do we keep our microbiome in good shape to improve our health?5 mind-blowing facts about the gut microbiome.We are made up of both human and microbial cells, and the microbes may actually be the majority. 99% of the genes we carry are in our microbiome. All the genes in our body, human or microbial, can impact our health.Why do all these bacteria hang on to us? Fiber isn't excreted unchanged. The soluble fiber in our food gets fermented and broken down by the bacteria in our gut.Our microbiome can help with weight loss. We think fiber is just bulk. Bacteria break down fiber to produce short chain fatty acids. Soon everyone will know about short chain fatty acids.Do you sometimes overeat? Microbiome to the rescue. Short chain fatty acids help us eat less. Short chain fatty acids cause the cells in our gut wall to produce hormones that reduce our appetite.In rodents short chain fatty acids cross the gut wall and influence the brain to reduce appetite. So our microbiome and short chain fatty acids help us feel satiated with less food.Our microbiome also helps us fight disease. Our microbiome eats fiber and produces short chain fatty acids. Short chain fatty acids feed our gut wall and prevent leaky gut, fight inflammation and reduce our risk of colon cancer. They can also protect us against diabetes.Scientists took people with diabetes and fed them a high-fiber diet rich in whole grains. The high-fiber, whole grain-rich diet was more effective at lowering blood sugar. This effect was tied to specific gut bacteria.Fiber and short chain fatty acids can help with weight loss. Hormones produced by gut wall in response to short chain fatty acids also regulate insulin and glucose metabolism. It’s amazing that the bugs in our gut can help us fight diabetes and that eating more fiber can get our microbiome fired up.Ok, Microbes are alright. Growing a strong microbiome can be as simple as feeding it. including a variety of fiber sources in your diet. Another great tool are fermented foods. They include fiber as well as bacteria.

Its fine to watch it, but our main source of life and death info, like nutrition, shouldn’t be movies, documentary or not, with industry ties or not. I guess that's why James Cameron is a movie maker and im not.
