Summary of Transcript:
In this YouTube video, Dr. Stephen Gundry discusses his new book, The Energy Paradox, which is dedicated to people who want to know what to do when they get up and go has got up and gone. The Energy Paradox explains how diet, exercise, and psychological energy all play a role in cellular energy and maintaining energy levels. For example, Dr. Gundry explains that his own fatigue and brain fog were caused by eating pecan pudding and that simply removing it from his diet restored his energy. He also explains that eighty percent of the patients he sees suffer from leaky gut or intestinal permeability. He also discusses the Hudson Tribe and how data shows sedentary people have the same energy output as those who want to move. In conclusion, Dr. Gundry explains that the Energy Paradox is about how the immune system requires huge amounts of energy and rations it to energy-hungry muscles and the brain by making them hurt and not work. The immune system requires huge amounts of energy to battle whatever is coming across the border.

Unpacking The Energy Paradox with Dr. Steven Gundry
Having low energy and brain fog can be incredibly frustrating and debilitating. I recently experienced this myself, and I was shocked to discover that my diet was causing my energy levels to drop.
In this YouTube video, I am joined by Dr. Steven Gundry, a cardiothoracic surgeon and author of The Energy Paradox. Dr. Gundry reveals the significance of gut health to the immune system and brain and how a leaky gut can cause chaos. We also discuss how the right diet can help restore energy and the importance of eating for your Microbiome.
The Energy Paradox
Dr. Gundry explains that the energy paradox is the idea that people may still experience low energy levels even with a healthy diet. This is because of a “traffic jam” of energy in the mitochondria. He suggests that reducing the eating time to six to eight hours daily can help improve energy levels and protect the brain.
The Impact of Fats on the Gut Lining
Dr. Gundry also discusses the impact of fats on the gut lining. He explains that, in the American diet, 24 hours a day, we are causing leaky gut and assaulting our immune system just from fat. He suggests that saturated fats in our diet can cause further damage to the gut lining and indicates that a carnivore diet may not be the best option.
Post Biotics from the Microbiome
Finally, Dr. Gundry explains the importance of post-biotics from the Microbiome. He suggests that these can help to control plaque in arteries and that eating for the Microbiome is essential for good health.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Dr. Gundry’s YouTube video is an eye-opening exploration of the energy paradox. He explains the importance of gut health to the immune system and brain and how the right diet can help to restore energy levels. Eating for the Microbiome is essential for good health, and reducing the time spent eating can help protect the brain and improve energy levels.

The chaos that can get unleashed on your body from your diet is so important to understand. Having low energy and brain fog is not only frustrating but feels debilitating as well. I’ve had my own recent experience with the low points that had me questioning if I had lost my drive. Starting with my diet and realizing pecans were causing my power to feel so low was shocking for me. Dr. Steven Gundry’s latest book, The Energy Paradox, reveals what’s occurring on a cellular level affecting the body’s energy. He joins me to unpack gut health’s significance to your immune system and brain. We get into the chaos leaky gut causes and how you can make better choices to restore your energy. Even if you have a healthy diet, Dr. Gundry, a cardiothoracic surgeon, will surprise you.

QUOTES:
“believe it or not, in the American diet 24 hours a day, we’re causing leaky gut, assaulting our immune system, […] just from fat, we are just a giant ball of inflammation.” [18:54]
“So if we look at energy production, as cars move down a freeway, it’s no wonder that even though we’re eating huge amounts of calories, we have no energy because we log jam the mitochondria.” [38:29]
“You’ve got to eat for your gut microbiome first, and you have to choose foods they want. And if you do that, they will take care of you.” [40:09]
“We die, we get diseases, by breaks in the wall of our gut that start this process” [41:05]
“If you begin to gradually restrict the time you eat to about six to eight hours a day, you will develop many better-functioning mitochondria; you’ll have a better gut wall because you’re not working on digestion. 24 hours a day. And you’re going to protect your brain.” [41:57]
