Episode 52 of the hormone helper podcast:
How Different Diets Effect Digestion and Hormones
SUMMARY
In this episode of "The Hormone Helper Podcast," Coach Andrew delves into the intricate relationship between different diets and their impact on hormones and digestion. As he introduces the revolutionary Hormone RESET Program, he invites listeners to join a transformative journey towards improved health and well-being.
Andrew starts by dissecting various diets' effects on hormones, offering both positive and negative impacts. Intermittent Fasting, known for its positive effects on insulin sensitivity and growth hormone release, could potentially lead to cortisol fluctuations and thyroid suppression. Carb Cycling, beneficial for leptin regulation and gut hormones, may induce insulin spikes and affect energy levels. The Keto Diet's insulin regulation and appetite control come with potential drawbacks such as thyroid impacts and cortisol imbalance. On the flip side, the Vegan Diet's insulin sensitivity benefits might be countered by challenges like vitamin B12 deficiency and iron absorption issues. Finally, the Vegetarian Diet's digestive hormones support could be compromised by protein and enzyme deficiencies.
The episode further explores how each diet can affect digestion. Intermittent Fasting's extended fasting windows might reduce enzyme production and disrupt the gut micro-biome. Carb Cycling's frequent carbohydrate shifts could lead to digestive discomfort and imbalance in the gut microbiota. The Keto Diet's low fiber intake may result in constipation, while the Vegan Diet's abrupt fiber increase could cause gas and bloating. Lastly, the Vegetarian Diet's lack of protein enzymes and reliance on plant-based foods might deplete digestive enzymes required for complex carbohydrate breakdown.
Andrew emphasizes that individual responses to these dietary effects vary due to factors like gut health and existing digestive conditions. He concludes the episode by celebrating its one-year mark and expressing gratitude to listeners for their continuous support.
