The Supreme Court threw out a challenge on June 26 to the federal government’s actions when it communicated with social media platforms about public health issues during the COVID-19 pandemic. The justices voted 6–3 in finding that those challenging the government lacked the legal standing to do so. Standing refers to the right of someone to sue in court, meaning the parties must bear a strong enough connection to the law or action complained of to justify their participation in the lawsuit.

Good bacteria counter colon cancer, colitis, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). What’s the best way to get it?

Indigenous hunter-gatherer populations in New Guinea, Kenya, and other parts of Central Africa have certain protective gut microbes that we’ve lost, says author of “Super Gut” Dr. William Davis.

“Their health includes virtually no stomach ulcers, acid reflux, hemorrhoids ... [and other] diseases of civilization,” he adds.

Twenty-five years into being a cardiologist, Dr. William Davis’s attention switched sharply to gut health when he saw the dramatic results of the simple diet changes he writes about in “Wheat Belly.”

But beyond diet change, “eating more fiber,” and commercial probiotics, Dr. Davis emphasizes replacing the good gut bacteria that we’ve lost to improve gut and overall body health.

Lactobacillus reuteri is one of the good bacteria species that can be restored through a yogurt-like preparation he has developed.

The bacteria colonizes the small intestine to produce bacteriocins, which are a kind of body-made antibiotic to fend off infection, says Dr. Davis.

“It also ... colonizes the colon, where it has been shown to have potent anti-cancer effects,” he adds.

Author of best-seller “Wheat Belly,” Dr. Davis joins Vital Signs with Brendon Fallon to reveal how gut health can be fundamentally improved, and how that improvement can be measured.
