Physicist smoothie

In an episode of the Huberman Lab, Sara Gottfried shared a story about a retired physicist who transformed his health by consuming a smoothie with 57 different fruits and vegetables daily. This physicist, a former professor at UCSD, adopted this practice to improve his microbiome after developing an autoimmune disease. The outcome was significant: his autoimmune disease went into remission, he lost a considerable amount of weight, and his overall health dramatically improved. He meticulously tracked his glucose and insulin levels, showing a clear positive change linked to his smoothie regime 1.

Unfortunately, the exact list of the 57 ingredients included in the physicist's smoothie was not detailed in the available clips. Sara Gottfried mentioned that the physicist would go to the farmers market, buy a variety of fruits and vegetables, and blend them into a smoothie. This practice significantly improved his microbiome, leading to remission of his autoimmune disease and overall health improvement 1.

If you need more specific guidelines on ingredients for healthy smoothies, it might be helpful to refer to general recommendations or other episodes of the Huberman Lab.
