1 00:00:02,370 --> 00:00:06,570 Hello there, health coaches. Welcome to our supplements expert series. 2 00:00:06,750 --> 00:00:10,740 I've put this together for all of us because let's be honest, 3 00:00:10,740 --> 00:00:14,430 we did not learn much about supplements in health coaching school. 4 00:00:14,460 --> 00:00:15,390 That's just a fact, 5 00:00:15,660 --> 00:00:19,860 and yet it comes up all the time and you're probably taking your own supplements 6 00:00:19,860 --> 00:00:20,340 too. 7 00:00:20,340 --> 00:00:25,260 So today we're going to focus on probiotics and Dr. Viegas from Fullscript is 8 00:00:25,260 --> 00:00:29,340 here to help.

Dr. Viegas, thank you so much for being here. 18 00:01:03,180 --> 00:01:04,650 Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? 19 00:01:05,430 --> 00:01:09,720 Well, thanks for having me, Michelle. Sure. So I'm Dr. Eric Viegas. 20 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,330 I'm a naturopathic doctor in Ottawa, Canada. 21 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:17,250 I currently work at Fullscript as a medical product manager, 22 00:01:17,670 --> 00:01:22,290 very much versed in supplement quality and teaching 23 00:01:22,290 --> 00:01:26,580 providers how to spot high quality supplements and perhaps lower quality 24 00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:28,830 supplements. Prior to my work at fullscript, 25 00:01:28,830 --> 00:01:33,810 I actually worked for some of the larger supplement companies in Canada in 26 00:01:33,810 --> 00:01:35,010 their education department. 27 00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:38,790 Alright, thanks for giving us a little rundown there. 28 00:01:38,790 --> 00:01:41,970 You guys have heard us say the word fullscript a few times, 29 00:01:41,970 --> 00:01:44,400 so I just want to let you know if you're not aware already. 30 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,980 Fullscript is a platform for practitioners, 31 00:01:46,980 --> 00:01:51,540 including health coaches where you can earn passive income and save up to 35% 32 00:01:51,780 --> 00:01:56,580 on over 350 brands of supplements and it's free to use. 33 00:01:56,670 --> 00:02:01,050 So go get more info about that at 34 00:02:01,050 --> 00:02:02,400 healthcoachpower.com/fullscript. 35 00:02:02,430 --> 00:02:06,270 Info for today we're going to be focusing on probiotics, 36 00:02:06,420 --> 00:02:11,190 which I know a lot of clients are asking our coaches about all the time, 37 00:02:11,430 --> 00:02:11,910 yet again, 38 00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:15,960 we're not generally trained in this area and it's a kind of complicated thing. 39 00:02:16,140 --> 00:02:20,190 So can you start us off with just the top lining for us? 40 00:02:20,190 --> 00:02:23,490 What are probiotics? How do they benefit overall health? 41 00:02:24,270 --> 00:02:26,220 Sure, yeah, great place to start. 42 00:02:26,220 --> 00:02:31,050 So probiotics are live microorganisms and they're often referred to as good 43 00:02:31,050 --> 00:02:34,620 bacteria. They can help maintain healthy gut flora. 44 00:02:34,620 --> 00:02:39,510 So probiotics can be derived from plants, human cells, 45 00:02:39,570 --> 00:02:41,940 animals, spores, the list goes on and on, 46 00:02:42,330 --> 00:02:46,230 and probiotics support digestion and gut health and also the immune system, 47 00:02:46,230 --> 00:02:47,880 which is mainly located in the gut. 48 00:02:48,630 --> 00:02:51,060 There are many probiotics supplements on the market, 49 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,620 but not all are created equal and we could spend probably a lot of time 50 00:02:55,620 --> 00:02:58,800 talking about various different species and strains. 51 00:02:59,050 --> 00:03:02,020 But I would recommend for the health coaches listening today, 52 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,170 check out a great resource. I have no affiliation to them. 53 00:03:05,380 --> 00:03:07,420 They're called AE Probio. 54 00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:11,710 So they're a helpful resource that can help start your journey into probiotics 55 00:03:11,950 --> 00:03:16,390 by bolstering basic understanding of what probiotics are and also providing, 56 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,220 which I feel is very helpful, 57 00:03:18,220 --> 00:03:22,540 a breakdown of research on various products on the market and their indications. 58 00:03:23,170 --> 00:03:25,540 Well, that's a great resource. Thanks for sharing that. 59 00:03:25,540 --> 00:03:29,860 We'll get that link in the show notes if we're out there either with a 60 00:03:29,860 --> 00:03:33,640 rudimentary understanding of probiotics or if we do a deep dive into that 61 00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:34,480 resource. 62 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,600 I know with all supplements it's a little bit confusing though because you're 63 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,570 looking at all these brands, it's kind of like choosing wine. 64 00:03:40,900 --> 00:03:43,690 You end up choosing based on the label, how much you like, 65 00:03:44,380 --> 00:03:47,620 how pretty the label is, and that's probably not the right way to go about it. 66 00:03:47,740 --> 00:03:51,010 What should we be looking for in terms of quality? 67 00:03:52,030 --> 00:03:52,863 Great question. 68 00:03:53,050 --> 00:03:57,160 So I would say look for a product with well-researched species like specific 69 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,720 strains of lactobacillus acidophilus or bifidobacterium lactus, 70 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,730 and of course ensure that it has enough colony forming units or CFUs, 71 00:04:07,060 --> 00:04:10,990 which are the gold standard for measuring the potency of probiotic products. 72 00:04:11,020 --> 00:04:14,470 And they're typically in the billions of CFUs to be effective, 73 00:04:15,460 --> 00:04:18,820 I would consider clinical evidence supporting the specific strains for the 74 00:04:18,820 --> 00:04:20,110 health goals of your clients. 75 00:04:20,110 --> 00:04:24,400 So numerous studies support probiotics benefits for gut health, 76 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,690 including reducing symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome known as IBS and 77 00:04:28,690 --> 00:04:31,300 supporting the immune system. Additionally, 78 00:04:31,540 --> 00:04:34,510 some studies also show potential benefits for mental health, 79 00:04:34,780 --> 00:04:38,650 such as reducing symptom severity and conditions like anxiety and depression. 80 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,150 That thing about CFUs is important because I've noticed sometimes with lower 81 00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:47,620 cost probiotics you look and the number of CFUs in there is way, way, 82 00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:51,010 way smaller than another product at might be at a higher price point, 83 00:04:51,010 --> 00:04:55,270 but you're actually getting far more. Would you say that's a typical 84 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,510 thing that you might find among brands? 85 00:04:58,900 --> 00:05:03,040 Oh, definitely, yeah. Very important to look again at CFUs and the billions, 86 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,420 because to your point, 87 00:05:04,420 --> 00:05:09,190 a lower quality probiotic product might contain only millions or very small 88 00:05:09,190 --> 00:05:09,610 amount, 89 00:05:09,610 --> 00:05:13,780 and that's really just a drop in the ocean if you consider the trillions of 90 00:05:13,780 --> 00:05:15,670 organisms that are colonizing our gut. 91 00:05:16,780 --> 00:05:19,270 Ah, okay, good. So we're going to look at those numbers. 92 00:05:19,540 --> 00:05:23,410 What about third party testing? I know that's a thing with fish oil. 93 00:05:23,410 --> 00:05:24,820 Is that a thing with probiotics? 94 00:05:25,390 --> 00:05:26,050 Yes, it is. 95 00:05:26,050 --> 00:05:29,920 Third party testing actually applies to many different categories of supplements 96 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,420 and essentially third party testing ensures that what's on the label is in the 97 00:05:34,420 --> 00:05:34,750 bottle. 98 00:05:34,750 --> 00:05:38,560 So third party testing ensures the product contains the strains listed on the 99 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,490 label in the correct CFU amounts and that it's free from contaminants. 100 00:05:42,790 --> 00:05:46,480 And so contaminants here could be things like pesticides, heavy metals, 101 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,820 certain drugs or allergens. 102 00:05:49,180 --> 00:05:53,050 So this essentially helps guarantee the safety and effectiveness of the product. 103 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:58,040 And the label should list the third party certification seal along again with 104 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,270 those specific strains and their CFU count at the time of manufacturer. 105 00:06:02,990 --> 00:06:07,220 And I would say in addition to third party certification seals, always, 106 00:06:07,220 --> 00:06:12,170 always check for an expiration date on the product and also ensure that 107 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,770 products are stored correctly from wherever you buy your supplements. 108 00:06:16,970 --> 00:06:19,550 Great. I was going to ask you, how do we know if it's third party tested? 109 00:06:19,550 --> 00:06:23,780 There is usually some type of label or seal or something like that. 110 00:06:23,780 --> 00:06:25,940 And then I imagine if we are buying through fullscript, 111 00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:28,700 that's listed right there in the product description? 112 00:06:29,210 --> 00:06:31,550 That's correct. It will be listed there, and again, 113 00:06:31,550 --> 00:06:33,110 it'll be directly on that label. 114 00:06:33,110 --> 00:06:37,280 So there are third party certifications that are more at the brand level. 115 00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:39,770 So you'll see certain brands on their websites, 116 00:06:39,770 --> 00:06:42,890 they'll say third party certified for CGMP, 117 00:06:42,890 --> 00:06:46,040 and then they'll provide those details. But for third party testing, 118 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,760 you want to make sure that that specific seal is directly on that product label. 119 00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:52,700 Great tip. All right. 120 00:06:52,700 --> 00:06:56,390 So for I know health coaches are buying probiotics for themselves, 121 00:06:56,390 --> 00:07:00,410 I know I buy them for my kids. We're probably talking to our clients about them. 122 00:07:00,410 --> 00:07:00,560 Heck, 123 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,350 we probably just have friends and family members asking us these questions all 124 00:07:03,350 --> 00:07:06,830 the time. They assume we know and we don't necessarily know. 125 00:07:06,830 --> 00:07:09,590 So it's good to at least have this background of knowledge. 126 00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:12,500 What about interactions? 127 00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:16,070 If people are taking certain medications or they're doing other supplements, 128 00:07:16,070 --> 00:07:18,500 do we have to worry about the kind of probiotics we're taking? 129 00:07:19,340 --> 00:07:23,930 Yeah, another great question. So probiotics are generally considered safe, 130 00:07:23,930 --> 00:07:24,560 but to your point, 131 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,640 they may interact with certain medications like antibiotics by reducing their 132 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,250 effectiveness, but at the same time, 133 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,290 probiotics can also help replenish beneficial bacteria after antibiotic use. 134 00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:39,830 So timing is important for dosage considerations here. 135 00:07:40,250 --> 00:07:44,750 Clients should aim to take supplements a few hours away from antibiotics to 136 00:07:44,750 --> 00:07:48,260 ensure optimal effects of both the medication and the supplement. 137 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,050 When it comes to supplement interactions, 138 00:07:51,050 --> 00:07:55,400 you'll actually start to see there's a lot more products on the market now that 139 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,690 contain additional antioxidants or other ingredients that might actually help to 140 00:07:59,690 --> 00:08:02,330 bolster the effect of the probiotic organisms. 141 00:08:03,260 --> 00:08:04,820 Oh, that's interesting. I didn't know that, 142 00:08:04,820 --> 00:08:08,120 but I did know about alternating antibiotics with probiotics. 143 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,290 So I know our pediatrician always tells me if it's a twice a day thing for the 144 00:08:12,290 --> 00:08:12,890 kids. 145 00:08:12,890 --> 00:08:17,300 In between those doses is when you want to give a probiotic to protect what's 146 00:08:17,300 --> 00:08:21,410 getting ravaged in their gut with antibiotic use? 147 00:08:21,950 --> 00:08:25,850 Yeah, correct. I mean, as the name implies antibiotics, 148 00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:27,620 they'll kill off bacteria, 149 00:08:28,070 --> 00:08:32,540 and oftentimes that means that sort of more pathogenic like 150 00:08:32,990 --> 00:08:35,390 fungi, yeast can maybe start to take over. 151 00:08:35,390 --> 00:08:39,530 So supplementing with a probiotic not only helps to replenish the bacteria that 152 00:08:39,530 --> 00:08:39,860 are there, 153 00:08:39,860 --> 00:08:44,270 but could also help to prevent the colonization of those pathogenic organisms. 154 00:08:46,100 --> 00:08:46,580 I have a question. 155 00:08:46,580 --> 00:08:50,630 I think about this a lot when I'm buying because we tend to find a brand and 156 00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:54,590 then we like the brand even when it comes to makeup or clothing or anything and 157 00:08:54,590 --> 00:08:57,180 then we buy it again. But when it comes to probiotics, 158 00:08:57,180 --> 00:09:01,830 is it cool to stick with the same brand that we know and we love or I feel like 159 00:09:01,830 --> 00:09:03,900 it's the kind of thing you want to be rotating? 160 00:09:05,010 --> 00:09:08,160 That's a good question. I think it would come down to the specific case. 161 00:09:08,220 --> 00:09:09,210 The case. So again, 162 00:09:09,210 --> 00:09:14,100 if that specific product is involved in a clinical trial for kind 163 00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:17,970 of what the indication is, then I would recommend following that. 164 00:09:18,990 --> 00:09:22,050 But if it's more for general use, then yeah, 165 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,670 for sure people can kind of rotate through different probiotics just to ensure 166 00:09:26,670 --> 00:09:28,680 that they're getting a variety of different strains. 167 00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:32,460 I mean one day, and there probably is some service out there, I don't know, 168 00:09:32,460 --> 00:09:36,180 that tells us exactly what microbiota we have floating around inside our guts. 169 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,580 But until we can monitor that in real time, 170 00:09:39,390 --> 00:09:42,570 it just helps to make sure we're getting a variety. 171 00:09:42,810 --> 00:09:45,870 And don't forget those probiotic fermented foods everybody, 172 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,230 but especially for clients who are not going to eat sauerkraut. 173 00:09:50,580 --> 00:09:52,080 That's just a little side note there. 174 00:09:52,620 --> 00:09:54,930 Love my kimchi. I just have to add that in. I love. 175 00:09:54,930 --> 00:09:56,610 Eating kimchi. Exactly right. We can do both. 176 00:09:57,150 --> 00:10:00,540 My wife doesn't appreciate the smell when I open the container in the house, 177 00:10:00,540 --> 00:10:02,880 but I love my kimchi. 178 00:10:03,180 --> 00:10:05,670 She will grow to love it. That's my prediction. 179 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,470 We do a lot of fermenting around here. Awesome. 180 00:10:11,700 --> 00:10:15,780 We always like to do stuff with food first when we can, but I mean honestly, 181 00:10:15,780 --> 00:10:19,050 most of our clients are going to put their nose straight up in the air when it 182 00:10:19,050 --> 00:10:22,470 comes to kimchi or anything like that, unless they're very, 183 00:10:22,470 --> 00:10:26,640 very special and rare. So we have, 184 00:10:27,930 --> 00:10:31,500 or probiotics, let's say I have mine in the refrigerator. 185 00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:35,220 I wanted to ask you just explain a little bit about storing them, 186 00:10:35,220 --> 00:10:38,100 especially if you travel. Is it okay to take a few of 'em, 187 00:10:38,100 --> 00:10:40,260 throw 'em in a container? Are they going to last for three days? 188 00:10:41,550 --> 00:10:44,400 That's a great question. Generally probiotics, 189 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,960 whether they're shelf stable or refrigerated are manufactured with overages. 190 00:10:49,380 --> 00:10:53,640 So they'll contain over a hundred percent of the listed CFU just to ensure that 191 00:10:54,450 --> 00:10:57,570 by the time they expire, they contain about a hundred percent. 192 00:10:58,170 --> 00:11:00,660 But it's important to note here that some probiotics, 193 00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:03,690 again need refrigeration while others are shelf stable, 194 00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:07,140 which means that to your point, you can throw them into your luggage, 195 00:11:07,140 --> 00:11:11,400 you can travel with them and not worry about having to refrigerate them. 196 00:11:11,700 --> 00:11:15,360 So it's important to follow the storage instructions on the label to ensure that 197 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,730 the live bacteria remain active and effective. 198 00:11:18,150 --> 00:11:22,410 And it's also important that proper storage and handling is followed by the 199 00:11:22,410 --> 00:11:25,890 online platforms or brick and mortar stores where you buy your probiotics. 200 00:11:25,890 --> 00:11:28,320 So just to note here, I do work for fullscript. 201 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,760 I just wanted to highlight that Fullscript takes a lot of time to ensure current 202 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,290 good manufacturing practice compliance when they receive handle 203 00:11:37,290 --> 00:11:40,110 store and ship products. So for example, 204 00:11:40,680 --> 00:11:44,580 refrigerated probiotics are always shipped with cold packs to help protect 205 00:11:44,580 --> 00:11:45,750 against heat and humidity. 206 00:11:46,950 --> 00:11:50,490 Right? So you could go, I'm not saying that anyone's doing this, 207 00:11:50,490 --> 00:11:52,230 but you could potentially go to a store, 208 00:11:52,230 --> 00:11:56,620 you could spend $40 on a bottle of probiotics and everything inside could be 209 00:11:56,620 --> 00:11:59,710 dead if it's been sitting in a hot warehouse for the last year. 210 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,220 Absolutely. Yeah. And that's definitely a concern, right? 211 00:12:03,220 --> 00:12:07,780 So it's important that you vet those sort of storage standards 212 00:12:08,050 --> 00:12:10,090 from the companies that you're buying products from. 213 00:12:11,230 --> 00:12:12,010 Alright, awesome. 214 00:12:12,010 --> 00:12:15,370 So I'm sure anyone listening who's not currently taking probiotics is now like 215 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,780 maybe I should be taking a probiotic and I know when we start anything, 216 00:12:19,780 --> 00:12:22,180 you have to be careful and go slow. 217 00:12:22,540 --> 00:12:26,110 What does somebody need to know about starting out with a probiotic supplement? 218 00:12:26,290 --> 00:12:28,120 Are there any side effects that we should be aware of? 219 00:12:28,930 --> 00:12:33,160 Yeah, another great question, Michelle. So most people tolerate probiotics well, 220 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,170 but with most supplements, 221 00:12:35,170 --> 00:12:38,650 some people actually experience mild side effects like gas or bloating. 222 00:12:39,310 --> 00:12:44,170 So these symptoms they usually resolve after the body adjusts to prebiotic fiber 223 00:12:44,170 --> 00:12:45,790 that might be present in the product, 224 00:12:46,510 --> 00:12:50,350 and as friendly strains help to deal with pathogenic ones while temporarily 225 00:12:50,350 --> 00:12:51,370 colonizing the gut. 226 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,320 In most studies you'll see probably around six to eight weeks 227 00:12:56,560 --> 00:13:00,670 an alleviation of those symptoms, but if symptoms do persist, 228 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,400 clients should definitely consult their healthcare provider. 229 00:13:04,690 --> 00:13:08,500 So if you start taking it, you might be a little bit gassy for up to, 230 00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:13,240 you said six to eight weeks, but if it continues, exactly, we got to look into. 231 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,940 That. Yeah, in addition to that there, oh, sorry, go ahead. 232 00:13:16,150 --> 00:13:16,630 I was going to say, 233 00:13:16,630 --> 00:13:19,390 and of course we always want our clients consulting with their doctors anyway 234 00:13:19,390 --> 00:13:20,560 when they're going on these things, 235 00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:25,180 but it's for ourselves and just in general think that's really helpful to know 236 00:13:25,420 --> 00:13:27,100 that there might be an adjustment period. 237 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,170 Absolutely. And to add to that, 238 00:13:29,860 --> 00:13:32,800 some clients might also experience changes in bowel habits, 239 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,730 and that's typically what we see with probiotics. So again, yeah, to your point, 240 00:13:37,060 --> 00:13:41,560 if it lingers longer than it should definitely consult your healthcare provider. 241 00:13:42,370 --> 00:13:43,150 Awesome. Now, 242 00:13:43,150 --> 00:13:46,360 I know all of our health coaches are worried about scope of practice and we 243 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,100 can't be telling our clients to take probiotics, 244 00:13:48,100 --> 00:13:49,540 and no one is suggesting that you do that. 245 00:13:49,660 --> 00:13:52,000 The fact of the matter is people are going to this store. 246 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,930 They are going online without consulting you, me or anyone, 247 00:13:56,050 --> 00:13:58,510 and buying stuff and just starting to take it willy-nilly. 248 00:13:58,510 --> 00:14:02,050 So expect clients to come to you with things like, 249 00:14:02,530 --> 00:14:05,800 I don't know why my stomach's acting this way. You might ask, 250 00:14:05,980 --> 00:14:08,620 have you started taking any new supplements recently? 251 00:14:09,580 --> 00:14:11,170 These might be things they're doing on their own, 252 00:14:11,170 --> 00:14:15,850 and you can just help them sort out the puzzle pieces as well as of course, 253 00:14:15,850 --> 00:14:20,380 refer them to their doctor.
