Today, I am blessed to have here with me Martha Carlin. She is the founder and CEO of BiotiQuest. This company strives to help people feel better by advocating gut metabolism as the key to regaining health by enabling the body to produce and absorb essential nutrients and detoxify toxins effectively.

Martha is a citizen scientist. She began her journey to help her husband with Parkinson's disease. Ultimately, her goal is to end the suffering of people with Parkinson's disease by making a cure. Martha shares her discoveries with her undying passion and helps the science world step forward.

In this episode, Martha Carlin speaks about our digestive system and its impact on us. She also discusses why the immune system is the one that kills us, not the pathogen. Martha talks about the right time to eat fruits and talks about the sugar shift biotic formula and its clinical trial results. Tune in as we chat about the Krebs Cycle, how the digestive system works, lipopolysaccharide, the Sugar Shift Formula, and antibiotics.

[04:01] You Are What You Eat: Take Care of Your Digestive System!

  • We are what we eat. That greatly impacts what's going on in the digestive tract.
  • Lipopolysaccharide is a cell wall component of gram-negative bacteria. When bacteria break down and die, bits of their cell wall remains, and this LPS can enter your bloodstream and trigger inflammation.
  • Gram-negative bacteria are potential indicators of Parkinson's and other diseases.
  • A blood test is the easiest way to know if you have high levels of LPS.
  • Other than LPS, bacteria produce proteins or peptides, which can cause autoimmune diseases.

[14:59] You are Being Killed by Your Immune System Response, Not The Pathogen!

  • When you get an LPS challenge, you can become LPS tolerant.
  • It's your immune system response that kills you, not the pathogen itself.
  • The more and more traffic that builds up slowly with that LPs, the more problems you start to see.
  • Mitohormesis and LPS can both can reprogram macrophages.

[24:11] Do You Love Fruits? Eat In the Right Time and Build Your Metabolism

  • When the season arrives and fruit ripens, you need to eat some fruit.
  • In this day and age, fruits are always available, and we might always be tempted to eat them. That is something we want to avoid doing.
  • The goal is to build that metabolism to introduce fruit.
  • There's just everything in moderation.

[29:52] Sugar Shift Formula: Helping People into Ketosis and Improve Blood Sugar

  • The sugar shift probiotic formula helps people get into ketosis and improve their blood sugar.
  • The result of the clinical trial is that the group taking the formula stabilized their HBA1C while the group that did not continue to rise.
  • There was a marked drop in both 90 Day and 80-day marks in the serum lipopolysaccharide.
  • In indigenous populations, breastfed babies will carry a specific Bifido and fanta strain, a single colony that trains the immune system.

[42:09] How Long Does It Take for the Gut Microbiome to Recover From Taking Antibiotics?

  • Microbiome NEVER recovers from a macrolide.
  • You have more problems with the resistance that's left behind than you have with antibiotics.
  • People don't realize how much antibiotics are in the food supply.
  • All pre-packaged convenience food contains anti-enzymatic things.

AND MUCH MORE!

Since John’s diagnosis in 2002, Martha began learning the science of agriculture, nutrition, environment, infectious disease, Parkinson’s pathology and much more. In 2014, when the first research was published showing a connection between the gut bacteria and the two phenotypes of Parkinson’s, Martha quit her former career as a business turnaround expert and founded The BioCollective to accelerate the discovery of the impact of gut health on all human disease. Martha was a speaker at the White House 2016 Microbiome Initiative launch, challenging the scientific community to “think in a broader context”. Her systems thinking background and experience has led to collaborations across the scientific spectrum from neuroscience to engineering to infectious disease. She is a respected out of the box problem solver in the microbiome field and brings a unique perspective to helping others understand the connections from the soil to the food to our guts and our brains.
