Episode #121 - Fasting and the Microbiome with Mike Mutzel

In This Episode:

Your gut ROCKS at keeping you healthy with time-restricted eating and prolonged fasting playing into that process.
Why do we ignore the tips our grandparents taught us about instigating metabolic effects (or not do it as consistently as we did in the past)?
Guess which organ directly impacts metabolic processes and performs more metabolic activities than ANY OTHER organ in your body. You may be surprised by the answer!
Count the ways a western diet perturbs your microbiome, leading to obesity, weight gain, and insulin resistance.
Recognize THESE indicators of dysbiosis (AKA microbiome imbalance) incited by unexpected daily habits.
The BEST ways to support your cells and microbial partners, starting TODAY with these habits for a healthier gut.
How your snacks overwork the immune system and the impact on your gut.

Mike Mutzel is a returning guest who will once again share valuable research he’s done about the importance of a healthy microbiome to one’s overall health! His latest research features an inexpensive and natural way to mimic the metabolic effects that can be achieved from its more expensive, more invasive counterpart, gastric bypass surgery.

He states that our bodies’ metabolic processes are directly impacted by the conditions around our guts or microbiomes. He also shares how time-restricted eating, better food quality, and sleep are influential to achieving healthy microbiomes for optimal health.

“Microbiomes are indispensable in terms of optimal health.”

– Mike Mutzel
