Summary

Everyone has a different metabolic footprint, and it changes constantly, so we need be aware of our diet and make changes when necessary. One of the most important factors to keep an eye on is the role probiotics and prebiotics play in our microbiome. In this episode of The Brain Warrior’s Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel and Tana Amen are again joined by “Eat Smarter” author Shawn Stevenson for a discussion on how the components of our microbiome work, and how we can make small changes to our diet that will make a big difference in the health of our gut, brain, and body.

0:00.0	Welcome back. We are still here with our friend Sean Stevenson. We are having such a great
0:21.1	conversation about his new book, Eat Smirter. And Sean, you are just, I love this because
0:27.2	you are just speaking my language. You are validating my points. This is my chin. It's what I love.
0:34.2	Thank you. I do. I love being right. But anyways, I was, but the reason I'm so passionate about
0:40.7	this is because you in the very first, like before we even came on, you were talking about how,
0:45.6	when we're going to do a live chat on this, about how much food affects society and anger and

1:04.0	I mean, the first three letters in the word diet or die, but for getting people healthy.
1:08.8	So you were in the middle of making a point. I want you to make that point. But then take us
1:12.4	through like more of your program and why this matters so much to you. Absolutely. So this point and

1:43.5	the most important point. Even yourself next week doesn't have the same metabolism as you have
1:49.1	right now. It is constantly changing and fluid and in flux. And this is an accountant for this is
1:54.8	why a diet can work great for a year. Then all of a sudden, the weight starts coming back. Or,
2:00.4	you know, maybe I start to have some kind of a symptom of, you know, maybe I'm having joint pain.
2:04.7	Something happens. And we have to have the wherewithal and internal intelligence to adjust our
2:10.4	diet framework to fit us because there are many wonderful diet frameworks. And I know the guys,
