Today we’re going to talk about the link between digestion and sleep. I’m also going to give you some helpful tips for better sleep. You need enough melatonin to get to sleep and stay asleep. But, melatonin supplements may not be the best idea because you’re not fixing the root cause of your sleep problem. Melatonin comes from another hormone called serotonin—90% of the serotonin in your body is made with the help of your friendly bacteria. Your friendly bacteria turns tryptophan into serotonin and then converts it to melatonin. But, you also need vitamin B6 to help with these conversions. If you have trouble sleeping, it’s important to focus on supporting your microbiome. Here are a few fantastic ways to support the microbiome so you can start sleeping better: • Take probiotics  • Take vitamin B6 • Consume kefir  • Consume fermented foods (sauerkraut or kimchi) • Consume fiber from vegetables (unless you have a gut problem) If you do intermittent fasting, you may start getting better sleep if you shift your eating window to earlier in the day. This means you would have breakfast and your second meal no later than 3 pm. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

If you have hypothyroidism, you need to avoid these foods! DATA: https://www.restartmed.com/10-things-patients-should-know-about-armour-thyroid/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK549880/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10230474/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3930806/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK285556/table/tyd-iodine-deficienc.goitrogenm/ 0:00 Introduction: Understanding hypothyroidism 0:10 What are goitrogens? 0:20 What is a goiter? 1:03 Foods to avoid for hypothyroidism 4:00 Discover the best foods for hypothyroidism! Let’s talk about the top foods to avoid if you have a hypothyroid condition. Goitrogens are things that cause a goiter. A goiter is an enlarged thyroid gland. Goitrogenic foods interfere with certain enzymes and hormones and can lead to a goiter. Foods to avoid for hypothyroidism: 1. Cassava 2. Lima beans 3. Sorgum 4. Sweet potato 5. Flax seed 6. Cruciferous vegetables 7. Millet 8. Soy products 9. Onions 10. Gluten If you have cruciferous vegetables in very small amounts (less than five ounces), it shouldn’t be a problem. Cooking, steaming, or fermenting cruciferous vegetables also reduces their goitrogenic effect. Having sea kelp as well may also help. You would also want to avoid anything that depletes selenium, iodine, iron, and vitamin A. Good sources of selenium and iodine: • Seafood • Sea kelp • Sea salt Good sources of iron: • Red meat • Animal products Good sources of vitamin A: • Egg yolks • Butter • Cod liver oil • Beef liver Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
