Ep 156 - Dr Davis | EAT THIS To Stop Insulin Resistance & Burn Fat
About this episode
This episode is brought to you by the Primal Tallow Soaps & Balms.
Is your weight loss stall actually a "gut" problem? In this episode, Dr. William Davis (MD), cardiologist and author of the Wheat Belly series and his new book Super Body, joins us to explain how dysbiosis in your gut microbiome is driving the epidemic of visceral fat and heart disease. Drawing on his latest clinical studies, Dr. Davis explains the mechanism of endotoxemia, where bacterial byproducts leak into the bloodstream, triggering systemic inflammation and insulin resistance.
In this episode, Dr. Davis explains the specific strains needed to eradicate SIBO, including Lactobacillus gasseri, the updated "36-hour yogurt" protocol, and how the gut microbiome affects heart health beyond weight loss. This conversation provides science-based tools to help restore the microbiome. Whether you are struggling with stubborn belly fat or looking to optimize your cardiovascular markers, Dr. Davis bridges the gap between complex microbiology and practical, simple tips.
