Do You Have a Leaky Gut?

Posted by Dan Hammer //

09/15/2018

In today’s blog post we want to address the question: Do you have a leaky gut?

This is a fairly new term for a medical condition called intestinal permeability. Some doctors, and medical organizations like the Canadian Society of Intestinal Research, believe this is a myth created by “alternative medicine practitioners.”

According to them “most physicians maintain that there is not enough research to prove that it is a legitimate issue.”

Then there is the Harvard Medical School that acknowledges this issue and states:

“. . . there is growing interest to develop medications that may be used in patients to combat the effects of this problem.”

Dr. Marcelo Campos, MD posted on September 22, 2017 an article for the Harvard Medical School. It was titled “Leaky gut: What is it, and what does it mean for you?” Here are two paragraphs from his article: Read More →

Are You Bifidobacteria Rich?

Posted by Dan Hammer //

04/08/2018

You may have a hard time answering the question, are you bifidobacteria rich since most people have never heard this word before.

Well my suggestion is to learn how to help your gut microbiome become rich in bifidobacteria as they are key to your health.

Your gut microbiome is home to trillions of microorganisms that play a significant role regulating your immune system, endocrine system, digestive system, and your overall metabolism. Plus your gut microbiome is linked to cardiovascular health, cognitive function, mood, and your ability to fight disease.

One of the most important and beneficial bacteria of your entire gut microbiome is a group called bifidobacteria. And the rest of this blog post will help you understand why they’re important to your health. As well as how you can take dietary steps to make sure they dominate your abdominal microbiome.

What are Bifidobacteria?

What are Obesogens?

Posted by Dan Hammer //

03/08/2018

Obesity is at an all time high in America. New research over the last 12 years shows that obesogens are a contributing factor.

The term obeseogens was coined in 2006. The first initial studies were on children and how exposure to specific chemicals disrupted their metabolism to increase their susceptibility to weight gain.

Over 80,000 chemicals are officially registered for use in the United States. And while some chemicals are toxic, and restricted in their use, there are many chemicals that disrupt your endocrine system. And are linked to a variety of diseases.

Plus they’re commonly used in many commercial products. Below is an anecdotal example:

“Rebecca is a 5 yr old girl who has gained 20 lbs in one year and is referred to us for premature breast development. An MRI of her head rules out a brain tumor. A pituitary evaluation to look for onset of puberty is unrevealing and tests show no estrogen in the blood. A more detailed history reveals Rebecca’s mother has recently taken to bathing her daughter in Victoria Secret’s bath gel. The assumption is that the bath gel contains plant estrogen. The mother is counseled to stop the bath gel and subsequently Rebecca’s weight gain and breast development cease.”

(Excerpt from the book Fat Chance by Robert Lustig, Chapter 15 Environmental Obesogesn)

I was not able to find the ingredient list for the product example used in the above anecdotal quote to help identify the specific obesogen but here are the most common ones. Read More →

Artificial Sweeteners and Weight Gain

Posted by Dan Hammer //

01/08/2018

The controversy over artificial sweeteners and weight gain has been brewing for a long time. The manufacturers claim that there is no association. However, recent information from the scientific community is showing that artificial sweeteners and weight gain is real.

And with the ongoing research in the world of the micriobiome, especially your gut microbiome, this association is revealing a cause and effect on how artificial sweeteners and weight gain occurs.

This is especially important since overweight and obesity issues continue to increase. Over 60 percent of the adult American population are now either overweight or obese.

So let’s look at the scientific information to help you make a decision to avoid the use of artificial sweeteners. Read More →

Supporting Your Gut Health According to Daniel

Posted by Dan Hammer //

12/08/2017

I was reading the Book of Daniel from the Bible’s Old Testament and found a very interesting passage as it applies to supporting your gut health. Most of the emerging science today is showing that supporting your gut health or mircrobiome can make a significant difference in your overall health and wellness.

So did it help Daniel improve his health?

Well before we answer that question, here’s a brief backstory from the Book of Daniel: King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had captured the town of Jerusalem and taken the young men of Judah’s royal family and others back to the land of Babylonia.

These captives were put into a three year training program and would then enter the royal service. Part of getting them ready for service was to feed them the royal diet.

What was the royal diet? We’ll discus this in a little bit but first let’s read the Holy Scriptures from Daniel Chapter 1 Versus 8-16: Read More →
