S1 Ep 15Sandor Katz on the Art of Fermentation

Kriben Govender (Honours Degree in Food Science & Technology) has a fascinating conversation with world renown fermentation revivalist Sandor Katz. We cover Sandor's journey into wild fermentation with advice on vegetable ferments, kefir and other ferments you may not have heard of. Sandor brilliantly demystifies the ancient art of fermentation and provides the inspiration to start your fermentation journey. Bio: My name is Sandor Ellix Katz, and I am a fermentation revivalist. My interest in fermentation grew out of my overlapping interests in cooking, nutrition and gardening. It started with sauerkraut. I found an old crock buried in our barn, harvested cabbage from our garden, chopped it up, salted it, and waited. That first kraut tasted so alive and powerfully nutritious! It's sharp flavour sent my salivary glands into a frenzy and got me hooked on fermentation. I have made sauerkraut ever since, earning the nickname Sandorkraut, even as my repertoire has expanded. I have explored and experimented widely in the realm of fermentation, and my mission is to share information and resources, in order to encourage home fermentation experimentalists and propel more live-culture foods out into our culture. Topics discussed: Sandor's journey into fermented foods Macrobiotic Diet and raw foods Keeping a garden Preserving your bounty How to to make wild fermented sauerkraut Kimchi Sour Pickles Sourdoughs Country/ Fruit Wines Miso Tempeh Fear of cultivating bacteria Food safety of fermented vegetables History of food poisoning related to fermented vegetables Acidifying foods through fermentation pH level for food safety Demystifying fermentation The rising interest in fermented foods The microbiome The benefits of eating bacteria rich food Acclimatising kids to sour flavours Acquiring a palette for strong fermented food flavours- natty, fermented fish The history of sushi prior to refrigeration- fermenting rice as a preservation tool Fermenting proteins with rice Koji Byproducts of carbohydrate fermentation for preservation Fermented Small Goods Sandor's favourite fermented foods Creating your own unique ferments: Reinventing fermentation Probiotic benefits of fermented foods and biodiversity Sandor's thoughts on Kefir Maintenance of kefir grains Commercially available Kefir Alcohol content of Kefir How Kefir makes you feel Bioavailability of nutrients in fermented foods Incorporating fermented foods in everyday eating Origin of Milk Kefir Grains Origin of Water Kefir Grains (Tibicos) Grain Fermentation South Indian Ferments: How to make Dosa and Idli Brazilian Bean ferments Buckwheat bread The Art of Fermentation Book https://www.nourishmeorganics.com.au/products/the-art-of-fermentation-by-sandor-ellix-katz?variant=5319702315044 Improving digestion of grains Plant food diversity Wild Fermentation Book https://www.amazon.com/Wild-Fermentation-Flavor-Nutrition-Live-Culture/dp/1931498237 Sandor's top gut health tip Brought to you by: Nourishme Organics- Gut Health Super Store- Shine from the Inside We range Kefirko- Kefir, Kombucha and Cheese Making Kits, Caldwells Vegetable Starter Cultures and Masontops Vegetable Fermentation Kits and Durand and Mortier Pilon Kombucha Equipment.

Bio: Donna Schwenk's world changed when she discovered cultured foods. After a difficult pregnancy and various health problems, she became determined to find answers to what ailed her. And in her quest, she came across the ancient art of home fermentation, a food preparation technique that supercharges everyday foods with beneficial bacteria to balance your digestive system, and vitamins and minerals to enhance your overall health. This simple, natural process has been used for thousands of years to create everything from drinks like kefir and kombucha to foods like kimchi and pickles. After incorporating fermented foods into her life, Donna began to experience a vitality that she had never known. And then she was hooked! She started a new life as a teacher and writer, blogging on her website culturedfoodlife.com, in an effort to bring the beautiful world of fermented foods to as many people as possible. She now works with thousands of people to open the door to a world of foods that can help improve an array of health problems including high blood pressure, diabetes, allergies, acne, hypertension, asthma, and irritable bowel syndrome.

Dr. Pedre completed his pre-med training at Cornell University in 1995, where he was honored as a Cornell National Scholar, the highest honor given to entering freshmen, and attained a B.A. in Biology with Distinction in all subjects, graduating Phi Beta Kappa. He went on to receive his M.D. from the University of Miami School of Medicine in 1999, under a scholarship awarded by the Board of Trustees for his achievements as an undergraduate and future promise as a doctor. Upon graduation from medical school, Dr. Pedre's training and aspirations brought him to New York City, where he completed a residency in Internal Medicine at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in 2002. September 11, 2001 was a day that impacted the hearts and souls of many. Having completed his residency in the aftermath of 9/11, Dr. Pedre felt a strong connection to this event. Consequently, he dedicated a year to researching the potentially toxic effects of the environmental pollutants on the recovery workers following this great tragedy. His work contributed to "The World Trade Center Medical Monitoring and Treatment Program," which is ongoing at Mount Sinai Hospital in the Department of Community and Preventive Medicine. This program is an environmental medicine research project primarily focused on studying respiratory and psychiatric disease as a consequence of the disaster. After this incredible experience, Dr. Pedre sought to bring his dream of the ideal medical practice to fruition. Convinced that the ideal method of practicing medicine combines the strengths of both Eastern and Western methodology, Dr. Pedre attended a yoga teacher-training in 2002 and underwent additional specialty training in Medical Acupuncture in 2003-4. With these trainings, he acquired knowledge of Eastern philosophy, meditation and the ancient healing arts in order to offer the broadest perspective and choices to his patients. Upon completion, Dr. Pedre could not find his dream in any existing practice, so instead of settling for less, he made his vision a reality and created Pedre Integrative Health in July 2004. Dr. Pedre is a sought-after speaker and writer on sustainable health, prevention, and integrative and functional medicine. His expertise and informative commentator style has taken him beyond the boundaries of his private practice to appearances on the Martha Stewart Show, where he presented a segment on "The Top Medical Screening Tests" everyone should have, and to features on Sirius XM Radio's "Doctor Radio" show, interviews on "The Gary Null Show" on Progressive Radio Networks, and guest blogs on Ecomii and Yahoo! Green, Yahoo!'s leading wellness blog platform. He is also an activist on the issue of hydraulic fracturing for natural gas extraction and its potential impacts on public health and the environment, including water contamination and air pollution. Dr. Pedre maintains hospital privileges at Mount Sinai Hospital and his practice is located at 120 E. 56th Street, Suite 530, New York, NY 10022.

S1 Ep 12Professor Ted Dinan on The Psychobiotic Revolution: Mood Food and the New Science of The Gut Brain Connection

Kriben Govender (Honours Degree in Food Science & Technology) and James Shadrach (Honours Degree in Psychology) interview the father of Psychobiotics, Professor Ted Dinan. We discuss how the gut and brain is connected, and the future of probiotics, prebiotics and food as a treatment option for IBS, anxiety, depression, stress and mood management. Bio: Ted Dinan is Professor of Psychiatry at University College Cork. He was previously Chair of Clinical Neurosciences and Professor of Psychological Medicine at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London. Prior to that, he was a Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry at Trinity College Dublin. He has worked in research laboratories on both sides of the Atlantic and has a PhD in Pharmacology from the University of London. He is a Fellow of the Royal Colleges of Physicians and Psychiatrists and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians. His main research interest is on the role of the gut microbiota in influencing brain function and development. Within this context he has focused on depression and irritable bowel syndrome. He has made significant contributions to the literature on the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in situations of stress. In 1995 was awarded the Melvin Ramsey Prize for this research into the biology of stress. His current research is funded by Science Foundation Ireland, the Health Research Board and the European Union through FP7. He has published over 400 papers and numerous books on the pharmacology and neurobiology of affective disorders. Research interests: The "Brain-Gut-Microbe Axis" research addresses the communication between the brain and gut and how it can be influenced by the gastrointestinal microbiota. This is an area of significance in infancy, where important links between diet, microbes and cognition are established. The influence of the microbiota on obesity and metabolic syndrome are also increasingly recognised. A better understanding of the role of this axis in the stress response, and its links with other debilitating psychiatric conditions, will help provide new treatment and management strategies – these will represent opportunities for both the food ingredients business and the pharmaceutical industry. Within this context papers Prof. Dinan's group have promoted the concept of Psychobiotics, probiotics that have a mental health benefit. Professional activities: Prof. Dinan runs a clinic for treatment refractory depression at Cork University Hospital. The research focus at this clinic is on biomarkers of response and the development of new therapies.

S1 Ep 11Zach Bush MD on Glyphosate, Autism and Chronic Disease Epidemic

Kriben Govender (Honours Degree in Food Science & Technology) and James Shadrach (Honours Degree in Psychology) have a wide ranging discussion with Dr Zach Bush MD on the rise of autism, glyphosate and the microbiome, plant based eating, regenerative farming and much more Bio: Zach Bush, MD is one of the few triple board-certified physicians in the USA with expertise in Internal Medicine, Endocrinology and Metabolism, and Hospice/Palliative care. The breakthrough science that Dr. Bush and his colleagues have delivered offer profound new insights into human health and longevity. In 2012, he discovered a family of carbon-based redox molecules made by bacteria. He and his team subsequently demonstrated that this cellular communication network functions to compensate for glyphosate, and many other dietary, chemical, and pharmaceutical toxins that disrupt our body's natural defence systems. This science has resulted in a revolutionary class of dietary supplements, including the product, RESTORE. Dr. Bush points to his kids as the driving force behind his passion for change. He is fiercely motivated by a desire to have them experience a much brighter and healthier future. His education efforts provide a grassroots foundation from which we can launch change in our legislative decisions, ultimately up-shifting consumer behaviour to bring about radical change in the mega industries of big farming, big pharma, and Western Medicine at large.
