Dr Daniel Pompa & Dr Mindy Pelz | Feast/Famine Cycling, The Hormetic Benefits of Stress, Why Changing Your Foods Is Key to Optimal Health & More KKP: 556

Mar 27, 2023

Today, we welcome back Dr Pompa & Dr Mindy Pelz! Dr Pompa earned his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Life University’s College of Chiropractic in Marietta, Georgia, in 1995. His journey back to health continued to lead him to a voracious passion for researching and learning beyond what is often readily understood. 

Dr Pompa is a walking testimony of the body’s amazing aptitude for healing itself. Following the debilitating effects of a three-year battle against chronic fatigue syndrome, his faith, personal victories over disease, and years of extensive research have enabled Dr Pompa to help others suffering from chronic diseases.

Dr Mindy is a renowned holistic health expert and one of the leading voices in educating women about their bodies. She is on a mission to start a women’s health revolution. Teaching her signature “5-Step Approach,” Dr Mindy has empowered hundreds of thousands of people around the world to harness their body’s healing abilities through fasting, diet variation, detoxing chemicals from the body, stress management, and lifestyle changes – as keys to achieving optimum health and slowing down the aging process. Her private coaching group, The Reset Academy, teaches women how to sync a fasting lifestyle with their hormones.

In this session, Dr Daniel Pompa and Dr Mindy Pelz talk about fasting and Ketosis; how they affect our diet and overall well-being. The best way to diet is to have diversity in your guts. Dr Daniel Pompa and Dr Mindy Pelz reveal the benefits of Hormesis. Dr Daniel Pompa and Dr Mindy Pelz dive into glucose, ketones, and gene triggers for diseases. Tune in as we chat about gut diversity, fasting, Hormesis, glucose and ketones, and metabolic flexibility.

[00:00] Diet: Supplement, Programs, and Detoxes 

  • Diet is about what you don’t put into your body or what you must remove, creating interference in your innate intelligence of healing itself.

  • When you look at why people are getting sick, it has very little to do with the lack of vitamins or nutrition; it has more to do with what’s disrupting their health. 

  • Believe in the body and stop looking outside yourself. The answer is understanding the language of your body.

  • Healthy people have diversity in their guts. 

[13:07] Fasting: Why it’s Simple, Easy, and Effective

  • Multiple studies show that a person’s maximum growth hormone rises around day five.

  • Fasting gets rid of bad cells that contain bad DNA.

  • Fasting doesn’t eliminate senescent cells or cells that live too long; they recreate a new one by stimulating a stem cell. 

  • An mTOR pathway is an anabolic pathway.

  • Variation in the diet is important. Feast famine cycling is a strategy of diet variation where we fast. Still, we must remember to feast, as feasting is as important as the fast today. 

[22:49] Benefits of Hormesis 

  • The premise of Hormesis is the adaptation of stress where you become stronger. 

  • Change your exercise just like we have to change our diet, create new stress, force the body to adapt again, and continue to get healthier and better.

  • People have different adaptations, and we must understand and listen to our body to ensure that it’s adapting to the stress we benefit from.

  • Hormesis considers fasting as a therapy, a therapeutic or healing state.

  • Some signs of the body not adapting to the fasting stress are gaining weight, spotting, and trouble sleeping. 

[29:13] Glucose and Ketones 

  • In fasting, you should see glucose trending down and ketones trending up.

  • Stronger mitochondria mean burning fat more efficiently. 

  • Ketosis is a stress to mitochondria.

  • When the body fasts, it knows what to do. Part of it is getting at these mitochondria and powering these little powerhouses up so the body can push out toxins out of the cell, creating the energy to make hormones and make your day amazing. 

[35:18] Gene Triggers for Disease

  • Epigenetics is like software; It can be changed and adapted. And so, most diseases are epigenetics.

  • People have a stressor that can turn on or trigger a gene.

  • Fasting and Ketosis are ways to down-regulate stressors. 

  • By feasting and famine, we create stress on the microbiome, and we create diversity. 

  • The microbiome significantly affects a person’s cells throughout the body. Thus, creating a diverse microbiome in the gut leads to a better immune system, brain, and health. 

[44:45] Metabolic flexibility 

  • Ketosis is a state and not a diet. People are meant to go through times of Ketosis but staying in one state or diet too long creates absolute monoculture or a lack of microbiome diversity.

  • As a cycling woman, Fasting and Keto does well with Estrogen but do not on Progesterone. Therefore, there are two different diets for Estrogen and Progesterone. 

  • Post-menopausal women can fast more like men.

AND MUCH MORE!
