LPS and Gut Bacteria!

The Lab Report ·

2022/06/21

In general, we often think about the commensal bacteria as being beneficial to your health. Did you know that the bacteria in the gut microbiome can also contribute to systemic inflammation and disease? There is molecule called lipopolysaccharide (LPS) within the outer membrane of all gram-negative bacteria. LPS can be readily taken up into circulation where it acts as an inflammatory trigger (endotoxin). But not all LPS can trigger the immune system. Only LPS molecules with a structure containing

Milk? (Patti & Michael on the A1 vs A2 Debate)

The Lab Report ·

2022/06/14

Many patients are not able to tolerate milk and dairy products due to GI symptoms such as bloating or diarrhea. In functional medicine, an elimination diet or food antibody testing can help uncover if the casein in cow’s milk might be at the root of these symptoms. Patients often turn to milk alternatives such as plant and nut ‘milk’ to avoid the difficulties with cow’s milk. However, research is showing that it may be a specific type of casein that is causing the problem in

Addressing Pill Fatigue with Justin DeTurris

The Lab Report ·

2022/05/31

Many clinicians in functional medicine advocate diet and lifestyle‐first approaches to optimizing health. Though in spite of best efforts there is often still a need for nutraceutical supplements - and targeted supplementation can be a game-changer in some cases. However, the issue of compliance and ‘pill fatigue' becomes a real challenge when patients are overwhelmed with 5-10 supplements at once. Justin DeTurris helps to solve this problem. He co-founded Personalized Nutrients which allows

2022/03/28

Burning extra calories doesn’t have to mean hardcore exercise. Your body uses energy all day long just breathing, digesting food, toe-tapping, and standing. This basic movement is called ‘non-exercise activity thermogenesis’ and at the end of the day can add up to tremendous energy expenditure. But just how much? Can we maximize it for long-term weight management? Are we eating enough calories in the day to compensate? In today’s episode, we discuss this NEAT concept –

Fatty Acids & Inflammation

The Lab Report ·

Inflammation is your body’s way of protecting itself from infection, injury, or other insults. Chemical signaling molecules called ‘eicosanoids’ are responsible for creating pain, heat, swelling, and redness. Eicosanoids are made from fatty acids, or dietary fats. We’ve all heard of fish oil and omega-3s being important when it comes to lowering inflammation. But why? In today’s episode, we break down the inflammatory cascade, explain how fatty acids are involved, and

Any clinician who enters the medical profession understands that a large part of the training is learning the lingo and essentially a new language. Even those who have been in practice for quite some time know that new fields of study emerge, and new terms can be borne out of that. Sometimes the medical jargon can get confusing even though what is being discussed is not new.
