Another fine interview, thank you very much. I have really learned a lot from your interviewees and Dr. McCleary is no exception. He hammers the insulin connection and I get it.
I liked the annecdote of the woman on the side of the road. I am coming to understand that hypoglycemic feeling, even though for me it is coming from exercise and the lack hunger (I try to eat a lot of fat at mealtimes, especially breakfast).
Yeah Jimmy!
Yes we have a brain in the belly and it does more than you might think! I write on my blog “… we can rejoice in the fact that we are fully equipped with a system, the enteric nervous system ‘the brain in the belly’ so to speak to know what we need…” http://bit.ly/mndbdy
There is so much to the gut and all it’s wisdom.
Thanks for yet another great pod cast.
Mucho Aloha!!
Dr. McCleary, here are some vital but oft overlooked inputs into your studies. — The human “Psyche” and how it is effected by stimulants and brain function and body chemistry. We know that the brain is where our psyche and what we call our “heart” and emotions and feelings and spirit and thought processes, as well as our senses originate and respond from. “What we like and don’t like and what we want and don’t want” etc etc, “what we think” and “what we believe”, and on and on. — “The Brain”. — We know that sugar and carbohydrates are stimulants that profoundly effect our brain like speed and cocaine and caffeine. The effects on our “Psyche” and “Being” of our “stimulated” state by sugar and carbohydrates and it’s effects on our brain and thinking and emotional process is for the most part “foreign” and “unexplored” and unknown. It all ties together to my thinking. Each effecting the other. Our likes and dislikes, our want for more. Do we choose college or to be a sea caption or a robber or a thief. All effected by sugar and carbohydrates just like speed and cocaine. Psychical effects and psychological effects that are both profound and life altering to our health and well being. All tied together into sugar and carbohydrate consumption. Both completely unnatural to our systems. Both man made and that we consume in massive quantities the world over on a daily basis. — I think that the “Psyche” too, effects our body chemistry.
Thanks Jimmy,
Another wonderful interview. Dr. McLeary is one of my favorite low carb guests, that I have had a chance to hear on your show. I like the ability to relate one ailment after another with one basic root cause, carbohysrates. I am glad that saturated fats are becoming the new health food that we can revel in. Actually, I am talking with someone on this very subject so this interview was timely for me. Thanks for the information that I plan to share with others.
great podcast as usual, Jimmy! Chock full of essential information. I enjoyed this one a lot.
I so enjoyed listening to the Brsin – Belly link with DR Mc Leary, well done Jimmy another great guest! The more I listen to your guests the more amazed I am and sad I did not discover all of this knowledge earlier! I am so thankful to you and your guests for making me aware of the dangers of sugar and Carb’s. Three months into the low carb lifestyle after 15 years of being crippled though debilitating inflammation and blood sugar problems (only now do I know whatwas wrong with me) I am now 32 pounds lighter and can think straight and I am PAIN FREE totally THIS wEEK!, thanks to you and all your guests, the knowledge, nutritional advice and supplements I have learned about have changed my life by changing my health.
So proud of you, Su! We’re all learning stuff we never knew, so keep educating yourself and others about what you discover.
