If this compound is normally low in kidney disease patients, it would seem wise to immediately consider changing one’s diet to compensate and prevent it from getting worse, or, possibly, see if any reversal could occur.

For the rest of us, it seems indole 3-propionic acid (IPA) is vital to minimizing kidney disease and other chronic diseases.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This potentially high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Now keeping a new list (“Common/Top Issues”) for conditions expected to only concern at least 1% of the population. Ask to be on either the “Common/Top Issues” or “Everything” list.

Please email or private message me if you want on or off of a list and of which list you desire.

Well, I’m outta luck. I’m poor and I can’t afford to move to Polyphenol.

I just bought some stinging nettle.

It seems to have a lot of good molecules in it.

Years back I ask my Doctor about the gut-brain connection and he said it is real and there is much to learn about it.

A long and very enjoyable discussion about some of the many gut connections.

WARNING! If you start you may not want to stop watching.
I planned two sessions but could not stop and was up past my bedtime.

Dr Huberman is a professor of neurobiology at Stanford.
He has many great podcasts and very few short ones.
Very easy to follow, most is explained in easy English.

Enjoy.

“My guest this episode is Dr. Justin Sonnenburg, Professor of Microbiology & Immunology at Stanford University. Dr. Sonnenburg’s research focuses on how microbes in our gut impact our mental and physical health and how diet and your environment shape your gut microbiome. We discuss the architecture of the gut microbiome and microbiota variability in different regions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and how these can change in response to diet, environment or genetics. We explore the early establishment of your microbiome and how your mode of delivery into the world (C-section or not) shapes your gut. We also discuss lifestyle factors that can alter your microbiome and the integral role the gut microbiome plays in communicating to other organs, including your brain. Dr. Sonnenburg details his recent clinical study, which found that diets rich in fermented foods (but not fiber) increase microbiota diversity and reduce signals of inflammation. Additionally, we examine how foods typical in Western Diets (e.g., high fat, low fiber, processed foods) can negatively impact the gut microbiome. Throughout the episode, we discuss actionable tools from peer-reviewed clinical findings that anyone can implement, regardless of budget, in order to optimize their gut microbiome and health.”
