Join me and Dr. John Lewis, Founder and President of Dr Lewis Nutrition, as we dive deep into the fascinating world of polysaccharides. We’re breaking down the myths about sugars and exploring how plant-based diets truly impact your health.
We’ll also compare plant and animal proteins, clear up some common misconceptions about nutrients, and talk about what really matters when it comes to staying healthy—like nutrition, exercise, and sleep. This episode is packed with practical insights to help you make better choices for long-term health, so don’t miss it!
Key Takeaways:Polysaccharides like those found in aloe vera and rice bran are potent health-promoting substances, distinct from simple sugars notorious for spiking insulin and metabolic issues.
Dr. John Lewis's groundbreaking research supports the use of a polysaccharide-based dietary supplement to improve cognitive and immune function in individuals with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease.
A plant-based diet offers crucial nutrients, casting doubt on the perceived necessity of animal proteins for sufficient nutrition.
The mechanisms of aloe vera—notably its acute polysaccharide content—underpin its centuries-old reputation for soothing burns and other wounds.
Dr. Lewis advocates for a holistic approach to health, encompassing plant-based diets, strategic supplementation, regular exercise, and adequate sleep.
Dr. John E. Lewis has spent most of his career developing a unique approach as someone who “walks the walk” through all of his combined professional and personal experiences to attaining optimal health through nutrition, dietary supplements, and exercise. Throughout his research career, he has evaluated many different nutritional approaches to enhancing well-being, particularly for brain health, immune function, and counteracting aging. He can separate fact from fiction regarding how to utilize nutrition and dietary supplements to help you achieve and maintain optimal health. If you need a trusted source of information, products, and services, then look no further than Dr. Lewis and how he can help you achieve your health-related goals. Professional Career Dr. Lewis is past full-time Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine and the Founder and President of Dr Lewis Nutrition™. He is a Diplomate, Faculty Member, and Advisor of the Medical Wellness Association. He has been the principal investigator of over 30 different studies on human health in his research career. During that time, he either directly raised or indirectly supported raising over $23 million in grants, gifts, and contracts for research studies and clinical trials and educational programs for medical students. In addition to his research, Dr. Lewis has been an invited national and international lecturer and guest speaker at conferences and as a guest on television shows. He is a well-known author with over 180 peer-reviewed publications in some of the world’s leading scientific journals. He has also mentored many different students, from undergraduates to post-doctoral trainees, in not only how to conduct clinical research but to apply the principles of health promotion into daily practice. Research Interests Much of Dr. Lewis’s research has focused on evaluating the effects of nutrition, dietary supplements, and exercise on various aspects of human health. He and his colleagues have been continually searching for ways to help people achieve and maintain health through natural treatments that align with our physiology. A primary stimulus for the origin of Dr Lewis Nutrition™ occurred after Dr. Lewis ran his landmark study on how an aloe polysaccharide multi-nutrient complex improved cognitive and immune functioning after 12 months in persons with moderate to severe Alzheimer’s disease, leading to the creation of the dietary supplement, Daily Brain Care. Daily Brain Care showed clinically and statistically significant improvements in cognition according to the ADAS-cog cognition score and statistically significant improvements in inflammation (according to TNFα and VEGF), immune function (according to the CD4/CD8 ratio), and adult stem cells (according to CD14+ cells). His seminal publication from the study in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease not only spurred him to leave academics and pursue a science-based business career, but also enabled him to be selected for a widely-acclaimed TEDxMiami talk.
