Mindsip insights from this episode:
Support liver detox with Omnibiotic Keos formula
To support the body's detoxification from environmental exposures, the Omnibiotic Keos formula is recommended as it specifically focuses on supporting liver function.
Balance intense exercise to protect gut health
Intense, prolonged exercise diverts blood flow away from your intestines to your muscles and heart, which can starve the gut and lead to digestive issues and poor nutrient absorption.
Avoid overtraining to prevent leaky gut syndrome
Influencers recommending overtraining may be directly causing leaky gut, as excessive exercise increases inflammation and damages the intestinal barrier, which can be measured by the marker zonulin.
Consider periodic gut resets with antibiotics and probiotics
The host speculates whether a periodic 'gut reset' using antibiotics to wipe out all bacteria, followed by aggressive repopulation with quality probiotics, could be beneficial for some people.
Remove bad bacteria by over-representing good gut flora
Getting rid of bad gut bacteria is more important than supporting the good, and an effective strategy is to crowd out the bad bacteria by over-representing the good guys.
Choose probiotic powder for superior gut survival rate
Omnibiotic's powder form, when rehydrated in water, has an 83% survival rate into the gut compared to an average of 7% for leading US capsule brands that rehydrate in stomach acid.
Avoid overtraining to preserve tryptophan for recovery and mood
Intense exercise increases the enzyme IDO1, which degrades tryptophan, an amino acid essential for muscle recovery, immune function, and serotonin production.
Select Omnibiotic Stress Release for cognitive boost or Power for immune support
Choose Omnibiotic Stress Release for cognitive benefits like mood and focus, and Omnibiotic Power if you're pushing your body physically and worried about immune function and oxidative stress.
