so I have another question is your fiber

making you fat

okay now realize that fiber is a

carbohydrate however it doesn’t have

enough direct effect on blood sugars

okay and you can’t even digest it it’s

not even for you it’s for your microbes

so the benefit of vegetable fiber when

that’s what I recommend is that the

microbes turn it into this natural

healthy fat called butyrate okay and

butyrate actually reduces insulin

resistance and which means it’s going to

lower insulin which means it’s gonna

help you lose weight

just from that one effect right here

also microbes will make B vitamins okay

which will help in other ways so the

vegetable fibers that you consume from

your salad whatever give you vitamins

and minerals and trace minerals and

those are all absorbed in the small

intestine the butyrate in the large

intestine from the microbes okay B

vitamins also the vegetable fiber

buffers the pH from the like the meats

that you consume that are acidic so we

have that buffer effect and also you get

phytonutrients from vegetables as well

in theory the fiber should help you lose

weight however here’s the problem if you

have low amounts of microbes that is the

thing that’s going to cause you to gain

weight because even people when they go

on an antibiotic and they kill off their

microbes they start gaining weight as a

side effect they give antibiotics to

animals to make them get fat and get

bigger so the combination of low

microbes in the gut and then adding more

fiber when these women basically we we

don’t have enough microbes to eat all

the fiber you’re gonna get bloating gas

all sorts of issues so when you start

consuming 7 to 10 cups of vegetables a

day and you just feel bloated well this

is the reason why right here so the

fiber is actually making things worse so

you might have to cut back a little bit

and start building up your micro flora

the other thing is that bile from your

gall bladder is recycled from the

microbes if you don’t have enough

microbes there to recycle the bile which

by the way it recycles it 4 to 12 times

in a given

okay then what’s gonna happen is you’re

not gonna have enough file one of the

functions BIOS to help you prevent a

fatty liver okay so that’s an important

one also it helps in lowering blood

sugars and improving insulin resistance

so just from that chain reaction you

could actually gain weight just from

that one thing you need to know is

antibiotics destroy the microbes so you

say well I don’t take antibiotics well

here’s the problem seventy percent of

all the antibiotics that are sold in the

US are sold to livestock so basically if

you consume non-organic hormone injected

you know beef chicken turkey things like

that then you’re getting a dose of that

antibiotic okay so that could be one

reason GMO foods there’s a chemical

called glyphosate okay that’s been

patented as an antibiotic so if you’re

consuming GMO foods which is pretty much

all the non-organic boots

you’re gonna kill off your microbes so

you have to do organic as much as

possible artificial sweeteners also

lower the microbes and there’s a lot of

other things as well so not enough

microbes can actually added the why

you’re adding the fiber is not a good

combination

because we just want to feed feed them

what they can eat not anything more and

then there’s a condition called SIBO

small intestinal bacterial overgrowth

this is a situation where you have too

much bacteria in the wrong place you

have it in the small intestine it

normally should be in large intestine if

it’s in the small intestine what it does

is it starts to compete for your food it

starts eating your food and you don’t

get the nutrients from your food so you

start developing all sorts of

nutritional deficiencies so if you’re

adding fiber and feeding these microbes

in the wrong place they’re gonna

actually grow and multiply so you’re

gonna have a worse problem down the road

so you don’t want to give too much fiber

in this situation where you don’t have

enough microbes and in this situation

where you have too much microbe in the

wrong place I put a link down below on a

video I did for this right here so you

can get more data on that so the key is

not to omit this right here but just to

really make sure

that you support the microbes there’s so

many people that start to reestablish

their friendly bacteria and they finally

start losing weight and they’re finally

able to handle more quantities of

vegetable all right thanks for watching

so I want to know about what you think
