    Is Sourdough Bread The Healthiest Bread? | EP 431

    Ten years ago, I told Dr. Oz on his daytime show that sourdough was the best of a bad choice, and somehow that turned into “Dr. Gundry says eat sourdough.” Today, I’m setting the record straight. In episode 431, I’ll explain why the very thing that makes sourdough special may not do what you’ve been led to believe, and why the problem may go deeper than the flour itself.  I’ll share a surprising story about patients who seemed to be doing great until something changed. I’ll also pull back the curtain on what’s really going on inside U.S.-made bread, and why even the artisan bakery down the street may not be the safe haven you think it is. If you love bread (like I do!) but care about your gut health and longevity more, this one’s for you. I’ll also leave you with some swaps for when you really gotta have a loaf, plus a quick answer to a listener’s question about vitamin D3. In this episode, you’ll learn: (00:44) How I got pegged as the “sourdough guy” and why I wouldn’t say it again(01:43) What fermentation can’t do to gluten(02:43) The pre-harvest spray that may make wheat even harder on your gut(03:41) What happened to my patients after a trip to France(06:54) The hidden ingredient in your bread that may affect your brain(08:50) Bread swaps, including a DIY loaf(10:00) My final verdict on sourdoughThank you to our sponsors!

    The Poop Questions You’re Too Polite to Ask | EP 429

    Poop. Did you know that what lands in your toilet every day is the most honest report card your body will ever hand you?  In episode 429, I’ll answer all the poop, constipation, and gut health questions you’ve always wanted to ask, and we’re going to do it rapid-fire because you sent in so many. Here’s what most people never realize: a large proportion of your poop is living and dead bacteria, not the food you ate. That means its size, shape, color, and smell are telling you how well you’re feeding your gut buddies. Give them what they want to eat, and you’ll see a giant coiled snake looking back up at you. Don’t, and you get little hard pellets, or worse. I’ll explain how often you should really be going, when blood in your stool means it’s time to see a doctor, and why floating, greasy, or clay-colored stools deserve your attention.  We’ll also get into coffee, undigested food, fecal transplants, and whether there’s a right way to sit on the toilet. Because the road to health is paved with good intestines. Some of the questions I’ll answer in this episode: (03:04) What is your poop actually made of? It’s not what you think, and it could explain why yours is getting smaller.(09:17) Is “just eat more fiber” the answer? This Stanford study will surprise you.(15:24) Why does your poop float and look greasy? (17:19) Why does your dog never need toilet paper? And what does it say if you do?(19:00) Why this mineral is the only laxative you need(21:08) Why a once-popular “cleanse” should be banned. (It was a misguided theory in the 1800s, but people are still paying for it.)(24:59) Do your bowels really slow down as you age? (25:21) What happens when you get a fecal transplant from a modern hunter-gatherer tribe?  Thank you to our sponsors!

    Creatine & The "Magical" Brain Effect (and how to buy the RIGHT creatine) | EP 426

    Creatine has more to do with your brain than your biceps. It helps your cells recycle ATP, the energy your brain burns through faster than almost any tissue you've got. So it isn't really about building bigger muscles at all. It's about energy, focus, and staying sharp at any age. In my latest episode, I break down what creatine actually is, how much to take, and the 3 things I check on every label before I buy, because this is one of the most contamination-prone supplements out there. On this episode, you'll learn: Why creatine is a peptide, not a protein, and what that changes (00:07)The "magical" thing it does to your energy-hungry brain (02:05)Why it may matter more as you age, not less (04:15)The "half-scoop" trick so you don't blow up like a toad (05:59)The 3 things to check on any creatine label before you buy (08:23)Done right, creatine is one of the most proven things you can take to support your muscles and your brain. Show notes/Transcript: https://drgundry.com/creatine-brain-health P.S. Creatine fuels your muscles, but it doesn't build them. That distinction is exactly why I formulated my own, MyoPeptide Complex, with the full 5-gram clinical dose plus a few things creatine alone can't do. Take a look here.

    Asthma: How to Fix It | Ep 425

    Asthma. What if the wheezing, the tight chest, the inhaler you reach for every spring isn’t really a lung problem at all? In this episode, I’ll explain why asthma has skyrocketed since the 1960s and what you can do to fix it. Questions I’ll answer: Is asthma really a lung disease… or an overreactive immune system firing from somewhere else entirely?Could our obsession with “clean”, like sterile homes, sterile hands, sterile food, be the culprit?Why did almost no one have these problems a few generations ago?What do antibiotics in pregnancy and early childhood have to do with a wheeze that shows up years later?Why might a muddy dog be one of the best things for your lungs?And the big one: if asthma starts in the gut, what does it actually take to calm the whole system down? Topics covered: asthma and the immune system, leaky gut and inflammation, the hygiene hypothesis, endotoxins as “nature’s allergy shots,” antibiotics in early life, the microbiome and immune “education,” gut buddies, Akkermansia and the mucus layer, lectins and the gut wall, molecular mimicry, dogs, dirt, and microbial diversity, and restoring your inner terrain.
