WOW! I needed to hear this. As I age ( I turned 60 this year) I am gaining weight, cholesterol rising, blood pressure out of whack, hair loss, not handling life stresses, long term antidepressants (I mean 30+ years) , had hysterectomy at age 26 and started HRT (Premarin)....doing that for 30+ years. I think I'm a mess and perhaps should be in a study! This has opened my eyes about the rest of my life. I am going to be binge watching you. Thank you very much for all your work!!

I lost my appendix when it burst during my last trimester with my third child 42 years ago. I also had radioactive iodine for thyroid at 28. Weight gain followed but after gall bladder surgery in 2009 I have gained 35 lbs. I ate strict Carnivore for 6 mos with no weight loss. I’m beyond disappointed. I eat well now… and beginning to get stronger walking. I have to say I’ve had years of weak abdominal issues.. debilitating actually.. but carnivore did cure that after 6 weeks. I’ll try your path and hope for the best!

I'm a fan of intermittent fasting and eating a broad spectrum of foods. For years, I've eaten within a 4 - to 6 hour window.

This is great information I've been down all these different rabbit holes in frustrated trying to figure out how to heal this gut. I know I have leaky gut, Not to mention believe premenopausal at 48, inflammation, edema, and MS, so my body is a wreck as well, and I'm trying my best to figure out the right combination of food to heal this thing. I kind of know all the processed food is bad, but between intermittent fasting when I should cut my window, and exact things that will continue to heal my gut is mind-boggling. But I so thankful for this valuable information. I will keep pressing forward the best I can. 🙏🏽💜
