We need more doctors like him! Doctors don’t talk about diet (especially older ones), they give patients pills, that’s all they do. 🤷🏼♀️ They don’t teach patients about diet and exercise or mind healing like going on walks outside and listening to nature, etc… For me, that’s a stress reliever walking in the evening listening to birds, watching the sunset, and listening to a book or podcast. Who needs antidepressants if you do that every day? Plus, I do boot camp in the mornings. Health is all encompassing like you said.
98% of my diet is now plant based. After years of eliminating foods and wanting to go vegan I am now almost there thanks to these podcasts with Dr. Bulsiewicz! I purchased Fiber Fueled and will now purchase the cookbook. Thank you Ellen!!♥️♥️
The first podcast episode with Dr. B shook me to me core. I literally cried. It was my wake up moment. I've followed Ellen for years and I've always wanted to go vegan but the first episode was my moment of clarity. I literally began eating plant based that night and will never go back. 🌿
"This is the whole human" - I wish that every time we went to see a GP that they thought this way. It's so sad and utterly frustrating to be the 'patient' with so much knowledge around diet, lifestyle and holistic health and for doctors to want to take the medication approach. In 30+ years of various bowel and gut symptoms, no doctor has ever asked me about my diet in any depth (most just judge me because I'm plant based and suggest I'd be better eating meat! 🤦♀), none have ever asked about how I'm actually feeling and what's going on in my life and most still have absolutely no concept of gut health. (I told a GP about leaky gut in the late 90s and he simply said 'it doesn't exist'!) Thank you Ellen for inviting Dr Will onto your show and thank you Dr Will for sharing so much valuable information that will help many people. Here's hoping that the next generation of GPs are considerably more holistic in their approach.
One of my favorite people you’ve ever interviewed! I’m so glad you brought him back. I’ve been following you for several years and went plant based almost 4 years ago. Great podcasts! Keep them coming.
This was such a good episode! I’ve struggled with my gut for so long, cutting out more and more foods thinking that’s going to fix it. It would be so helpful to know the first baby steps to take to start healing. ❤
Yes, yes, yes, I have been highly anticipating this video. The last one has helped me sooooo much!!!! Thank you so much Ellen , these podcasts are so valuable
@@superslimj8013 awesome thank you. Yeah I noticed he mentioned it right at the end but was hoping hed go more into detail. Good to know its in his book!
He talks about it in the first episode as well as in his book :) basically says to eat in moderation because the fermented foods are high in salt and studies have shown they can cause throat cancer!
Music to my ears. I healed my gut by eating a diversity of plant foods many years ago and continue to do so and reap the benefits! It is the answer!! Loved both of these chats please do more!!! ;);)
@@SS-dp7lt no meat. Our protein comes from our fruit, vegetables, ancient and whole grains, and legumes, beans, tempeh, lentils. Super easy, pinterest has a million bomb recipes. And no I haven't gained weight since being vegan, and I don't even need to pay attention to it. I get to enjoy much more food than when I ate meat and have been the same weight and build since before I was vegan. My health has exploded I am healthier than I have ever been and it gets better every single year.
Thank you thank you thank you! This episode is amazing and the whole podcast is so inspiring and empowering ☺️💚🥰 loving seeing you branch out into your passions. all the best for the future xxx
So good and so important! I couldn't stop listening to his book on audible it was so good! I love how I formed it was with real, undeniable science facts!
Fantastic Interview!!! Thank you, I learned so much!!!! Also the point of trauma ist so important. What helped me is the book Dianetics to handling traumas. I will also get the book from Dr. B. and start the programm.
I have gerd and my asthma triggers its been 3 months im seeing my gastro and pulmo but nothing seems to work i pray everyday that i will soon overcome this im guilty of eating alot of meat before this happens when i wasnt married my diet is more vegetables and fish then i was married to my husband qho doesnt eat veggies or fish so my diet changes for 4 years omg this really gives me realization on whats happening to me ty so much i will look in everydetail of what causing this symptoms. GB!
Love this episode!! I have SO many questions. I will gladly welcome episodes with you two any day! Maybe you could make this a series on the podcast or do a series on Instagram live where viewers can submit questions? ❤️
Really good podcast.. the more I listen to him about the body complex make up and the microbiome.. the most I am convince that this body was created by an intelligent God.
This is such important and valuable information! I really appreciate you sharing this podcast. I've had gut problems for years and finally found a unique way that works for me. As an Orthomolecular Therapist and nutritionist, I'm smiling while listening to your podcast. Loved it! Keep doing your work, it's amazing and much needed. Love, Ines from the Netherlands
I just had my poop & blood tested & have major food restrictions now. I started about 18 days ago & no improvement yet. I have had IBS-D since 1991. This is my 16th or 17th doctor & I don't plan on trying any longer if this doesn't work for me.
Just to add to what Tara said, a food intolerance might manifest as diarrhoea, whereas a food allergy might manifest as a rash/swelling to anaphylactic shock depending on the severity of the allergy. A food intolerance may make you feel crap temporarily after consuming the food in question, but a food allergy might kill you.
How do you get over the fear of food? Since everything I eat bothers me, I either skip eating or am fearful when I do eat cause I know Ill get bloated, feel sick and end up in the bathroom. I know its a self fulfilling prophecy but how do you change that way of thinking when all foods bother me. Ive always said I would be happy if I didn’t have to eat anything, it would be so much easier. I know its a deranged way of thinking but, just it was it is for now.
11:07 great question Ellen. I am a perfect example of what an elimination diet can do to a person. I used to be a hard core carnivore/keto enthusiast. I hate meat, but after reading "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease" by Dr. Thomas Seyfried, listening to Dr. Bret Scher and his guests as well as all doctors presenting lectures on Low Carb Down Under I was sold and forced myself into low carbohydrate diets for approx. 6 years. What these diets did to me is as follows: SEVERE dysbiosis, methane SIBO (which makes my life living hell), EXTREME constipation and much slower transit associated with this type of SIBO, gradually increasing when on low carb severe migraines accompanied by vomiting and usually requiring medical intervention, pain in the abdominal region after eating "the wrong thing (aka carbohydrate)" stronger than the pain I experienced during my traumatic, long and complicated birth. I'm slowly transitioning towards plant based living with the hope to become fully plant based and with renewed microbiome in the future. Dear people having doubt and an on and off "romantic" relationship with low carb meat based lifestyle: I assure you, it's a trap, even though you feel great at first. You will notice within a few years that your morning blood glucose is gradually higher and higher. You will also notice that your TSH levels are growing alarmingly. Don't do it to yourself, it's a message to women in particular. I know there are anecdotes and many swearing by meat and its "healing properties" but think about it, you don't really know these people, you don't know what's going to happen to them, they have no science to back them up, they're doing the exact opposite to what science has proven many a time. But even if there are 2 or 3 long term carnivore women active on the internet and truly thriving; I'm 100% certain they are just an exception to the rule, just like people smoking and drinking.
So i was tested for fructose and was told I malabsorbe fructose. So I stay away from it. But everything I eat seems to bother me, this has been going on for 10 years, I honestly have no idea what to eat and what not to eat. Trying to do an elimination and reintroduce foods, if it takes 2 weeks, then do I eat chicken only for 2 weeks and then every 2 weeks after eat 1 other item in specific quantities each day until I get sick, then I know how much I can tolerate? This would take years to figure out what I can eat. Plus I was told it could take up to 3 days for a food to react in my body. So I have no idea what to do or eat at this point. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I am so unsure if I should be gluten free or not. I have been for about a month. I have nearly every symptom of an intolerance even though I don’t have celiacs (Bx confirmed). But so am finding it hard to navigate a gluten free vegetarian diet honestly. I am not vegan. I do eat gluten free bread that has eggs in it and such but I don’t just outright eat gluten gigs or dairy anymore.
Gluten free vegan here (was diagnosed with celiac earlier this year). If you are eating whole food, plant based, following a gluten free diet had been far easier then I anticipated! The hardest part has been eating out but even that had been getting easier with research.
This has got to be the biggest load of crap going, Firstly Eskimos only eat animal based products. Secondly it has been proven that plant based diets reduce sperm count and health, speed up menopause in women and contribute to poor health. Also Countries with the highest life expectancy eat a high content of meat. Before we could fly veg and fruit across the world how did we have access to 100 different plants? This is a modern way of eating. There are lots of people who cut out gluten and heal their thyroid me included. Dr Zsopia Clemens as clinical evidence that a meat based diet heals the gut. Can you tell me how you measure a sealed gut when only eating plants? Do you use the PEG400 test as that is efficacious and a great way to measure a leaky gut. Also we still do not know what the gut microbiome actually means and there is no long term research on any diet carnivore included. Its almost impossible to do these studies too many variables. He also does not talk about how exercise, sleep and being out doors heals supports gut health. When he talked about that women changing jobs and her stomach healed I literally choked on my food. This was really bad and really disingenuous.
He does talk about lifestyle mod like u mention and meat probably is safe when it’s organic grass fed not usa quality factory farmed also you’re nuts and prob a hick

Great questions, Ellen! Not only is this an informative interview but the natural ambience makes it so easy to sit and listen.

im so glad! thanks for tuning in!
Id love to know his take on using fermented foods for restoring gut health.
He does reference fermented foods, right at the very end. He mentions in his book he explains how to ferment foods so he is obviously a fan of it
@@superslimj8013 awesome thank you. Yeah I noticed he mentioned it right at the end but was hoping hed go more into detail. Good to know its in his book!

@@_joannahans awesome Jo! thank you for the recap I appreciate it.
Wonderful... Awesome one😎 How'd you see the last episode?
Dr.will seems like such a down to earth nice guy! I would have loved to known his take on oils and his take on olive oil & coconut oil.
Would love to hear you interview someone about alcohol, Cannibas, and psychedelic mushrooms
Music to my ears. I healed my gut by eating a diversity of plant foods many years ago and continue to do so and reap the benefits! It is the answer!! Loved both of these chats please do more!!! ;);)

Radical in the sense fundamental,extreme,thoroughgoing.

@@BryanLJones-kz7fl Still the same, but this program will take at least 4 months & it cost me $2,700, so I am following it to the end!
It's important! So you need it and put an effort in it if it cost you such... Where are you chatting from Jane?
I'm Bryan nice to meet you ☺️
It's good you take care of yourself very well

Will they talk about gluten at some point?
Just after 60 mins in
Excellent advice
Awesome episode too... How're you doing today?
How'd you check out the last episode?
One question I am wondering- is a food intolerance different from a food allergy? Can’t wait to get the new book Dr. B!
Yes! A food intolerance is digestive related and a food allergy is immune system related 🙂
Just to add to what Tara said, a food intolerance might manifest as diarrhoea, whereas a food allergy might manifest as a rash/swelling to anaphylactic shock depending on the severity of the allergy. A food intolerance may make you feel crap temporarily after consuming the food in question, but a food allergy might kill you.
Great podcast, love you Ellen and Dr B!🤍
Thank you for acknowledging ppl with celiac cannot ever eat gluten - period.
P.s. love the fiber fuel cookbook, just made the eggplant hummus Buddha bowl tonight! Delish!
This was great, thanks for sharing! ✨🔆🧡
YESSSS ELLLEN!!!!!!! Love every episode!
