E259: Unlocking the Power of Fiber for Gut Health with Zbiotics co-founder Zack Abbott 56:40

5 weeks ago56:40

56:40

Zack Abbott is the CEO and Co-founder of ZBiotics, and the inventor of ZBiotics' proprietary technology. He has a PhD in microbiology & immunology from the University of Michigan where he studied bacterial gene regulation. Prior to starting ZBiotics, Zack worked in clinical trial design as well as researching HIV vaccines and pursuing novel antibiotics in both academia and industry. Learn more about Zack on Episode 183 where we dive into the pre-alcohol probiotic he created. In this episode, Zack discusses the significance of fiber in gut health and introduces his new product, Sugar to Fiber. The conversation highlights the common fiber deficiency among Americans, the various benefits of fiber, and the innovative approach of using probiotics to convert sugar into fiber, enhancing dietary diversity and gut health. Episode Highlights: • Most people are fiber-deficient. 🥦 Many Americans don’t get enough fiber, which is essential for digestion, metabolism, and overall gut health. • Probiotics do more than support digestion. 🦠 They play a key role in gut balance, immune function, and even how our bodies process certain foods. • Genetic engineering in food isn’t always bad. 🔬 When used responsibly, it can create innovative solutions to improve health and nutrition. • Fiber fuels a healthy gut microbiome. 🍏 Eating a diverse range of fiber-rich foods helps nourish good bacteria and supports long-term health. • Small changes make a big impact. 🚀 Simple shifts—like prioritizing fiber and choosing the right probiotics—can significantly improve digestion and well-being.

In this inspiring episode we welcome Brent and Kyle Pease, brothers who have made a significant impact in the world of endurance sports and disability inclusion. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy as a child, Kyle grew up cheering for his athlete brothers from the sidelines—until one life-changing moment when he asked Brent, “Can people in wheelchairs do IRONMAN?” Without hesitation, Brent replied, “YES!” That simple yet powerful exchange ignited a journey that has led them to complete over 75 races together, including IRONMAN triathlons and the legendary IRONMAN World Championships in Kona. But their impact goes far beyond racing. Through the Kyle Pease Foundation, they’ve empowered over 100 athletes with disabilities to compete in endurance sports, proving that inclusion isn’t just a goal—it’s a movement. In this episode, we explore their brotherly bond, the power of vulnerability in training, race-day challenges, and the ripple effect of inclusion. They share how sports transforms lives, the mission behind their foundation, and why embracing your own challenges can unlock new possibilities. Episode Highlights: How vulnerability during training fosters deeper connections. Inclusion in sports can lead to broader societal changes. Training together creates lasting memories and strengthens relationships. The transformative power of sports and the importance of community and inclusion. Learn how The Kyle Pease Foundation aims to improve lives through sports and beyond. The importance of filling up your own cup and being authentically you.
