Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Kito and Interminute fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. So I'm not sure if you know this or not, but interminute fasting can

supercharge your gut microbes. When you put bacteria on a fast or mice or fruit flies or bugs they live a lot longer

you see an increased resistance to oxidative stress and xenobiotic stress. This is exposure to chemicals.

Like in chemotherapy for example, if someone goes through chemotherapy and they're fasting,

the microbes which make up a lot of the immune system can survive longer.

When you do fasting, you increase diversity of microbes. That's cool. You also increased tolerance to bad bacteria. It also will restore

intestinal epithelium which is the lining of your colon. And I already

touched on they live longer as well.

And when you're doing fasting,

you starve off the food, the sugar,

for yeast and candida.

So you kill off the bad population, the pathogenic microbes, and you

help the good population. And these microbes do a lot for you. They help recycle and increase your bio-acids, which help you

digest fats and extract bats-ybob vitamins, omega-3 fats. They help make butorate, which is a healthy fat that helps your blood sugars,

okay? So it'll help insulin resistance.

It feeds your colon cells, the fuel that gives them energy.

And by the way, fiber converts to butorate. If you go on a diet that's low in fiber,

let's say carnivore diet, people always want to know, well, what's going to happen to my microbes long term?

Well, we don't know. There's not a lot of studies out there.
