Introduction
I will cover the most cutting-edge nutritional strategies for
developing a lean, flat and muscular mid-section, but there is
a serious problem facing 95% percent of people in western
civilization.

If you dont fix this problem you will most certainly struggle
to achieve the look you want.

You could have the best program for building abs


(clearly I am talking about SpecForce Abs), with
the best nutritional information, yet I guarantee
you havent considered the most important
factor in determining whether or not you will
lose belly fat.

Did you know that without paying proper


attention to your gut, you are potentially
exposing yourself to toxins which could
lead to a dangerous internal imbalance?

By gut I mean your gut flora, which


is also referred to your gut microbiota.
These micro-organisms live by the
hundreds of trillions in your digestive tract
and they have an extremely important
function.

The Role of Gut Flora

The human body contains 10 times as many


microbes as it does actual human cells, and
we have evolved alongside the bacteria in our
bodies to forge a strictly symbiotic relationship.1

There are two types of bacteria, known as probiotic


(supporting life) and pathogenic.

1 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/334036/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 4
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
These bacteria perform metabolic activities which resemble that of one of your other main
organs; however, their role and function has largely been ignored in mainstream nutrition until
recently.

The good, or probiotic bacteria, perform critical functions such as training your immune
system and stimulating cell growth, while also defending against disease by preventing the
growth and proliferation of harmful pathogenic microorganisms.

Without the proper balance of gut flora you are likely storing fat improperly. You are also at
risk of inflammation which is a precursor to obesity.

You see, the food you eat begins fermentation in your digestive tract. When undigested food
ferments, the flora (if it is the good kind) turns this undigested food into useful energy and
nutrients.

This also enables your body to absorb iron (critical for women), magnesium and calcium,
as well as playing an important role in your ability to correctly use vitamin B and vitamin K.
Equally important is that this flora plays a role in metabolizing xenobiotics.

Gut Flora and Xenobiotics

Xenobiotics are potentially harmful chemicals such as antibiotics, drugs, and environmental
toxins which can be introduced to your body.

Dietary intake will ultimately determine the balance of good bacteria in your intestines, and
balancing your good bacteria is of course an important starting point for achieving a healthy
and flat belly.

The problem with dieting is that you can find yourself suffering from things like fatigue,
rebounds (gaining back lost weight), cravings similar to those of an addict, and even
metabolic damage.

Xenobiotics
The word points out a large range of artificial components such as

Drugs - Medication Pesticides and Chemicals


Fungicides
Sources: Sources:
Pharma Industries Sources: Chemical industries
Hospitals, Medical Centres Agriculture (mainly)
and human and Animal wastes

SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
If you have stubborn belly fat, eat a lot of processed foods, or perhaps even struggle with
sugar addiction, balancing your gut flora will put you on a path to change.

Whats amazing is that this can happen quite quickly. You can start this process by simply
adding a good probiotic supplement.

The Benefits of Probiotic Supplements

As we discussed above, probiotic bacteria are essential to human health due to the roles
that they play within the body.

These roles cover everything from immune function to hormone production and the
development of new cells and tissues.

Anything that will support the population of these friendly bacteria is likely to prove
beneficial to our overall health and well-being.

One way of supporting the bacteria population in your gut is to incorporate probiotic
supplements.

Probiotic supplements such as lactobacillus and bifidobacterium can provide a number


of different health benefits, including a reduction in inflammation and protection against
infectious diseases.

A 2008 study published in the International Journal of Food Microbiology set out to assess
the interaction of probiotic lactobacillus and bifidobacterium strains with human intestinal
epithelial cells.

Among the effects observed, these bacterial strains appeared to compete against what are
known as enteropathogens such as salmonella and E. coli.

Simply put, these friendly bacteria protect against such infectious pathogens, while also
protecting the gut from acute inflammation.

The study concluded with the following statement: Both strains showed the potential to
protect enterocytes from an acute inflammatory response. These probiotic strains are
potential candidates for the development of new functional foods helpful in counteracting
enteropathogen infections.2

Another study, this time published in Nature in 2011 demonstrated that bifidobacteria can
protect from enteropathogenic infection through production of acetate.3

3 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21270894

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 6
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
What is interesting about this particular study is that it provides us with a more extensive
understanding of just how bifidobacteria works within the body.

Bifidobacteria was shown to directly protect against E. coli by preventing the toxin from
being translocated from the gut lumen to the bloodstream, due in part to the production of
acetate.

The researchers concluded, [we] propose that acetate produced by protective


bifidobacteria improves intestinal defence mediated by epithelial cells and thereby
protects the host against lethal infection.

Now this is all well and good but very few of us find ourselves at risk of E. coli infection on
a regular basis, so what are some of the benefits of probiotic supplements that are more
directly relevant to our daily lives?

Gut Health and Chronic Fatigue

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a condition that appears to be quite prevalent in our modern
age.

If you have ever experienced chronic fatigue syndrome or you know someone who suffers
from it then you are probably well aware of just how much a
hindrance it can be to ones quality of life.

Although the direct causes of chronic fatigue


syndrome are uncertain, there have been some
studies showing that patients suffering from CFS
have lower levels of bifidobacteria, as well
as other undesirable changes to their gut flora.

People suffering from chronic fatigue


syndrome may potentially be suffering from
the malabsorption of certain nutrients. There
also appears to be some effect on the
immune
system due to patients often reporting
allergies.

The good news is that a 2002 study showed


lactic acid bacteria to be of therapeutic value
in the context of chronic fatigue syndrome.4

4 http://www.medical-hypotheses.com/article/S0306-9877(03)00096-3/abstract

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 7
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
Bacterial strains such as the aforementioned bifidobacteria can actually influence the
immune system directly by supporting T helper cell 1-driven cellular immunity. This could
provide a marked reduction in allergic reactions.

Additionally, the ability of these bacterial strains to protect the intestinal epithelial barrier
could potentially enhance nutrient absorption. Add to this the antioxidant benefits of lactic
acid bacteria and it is clear to see how beneficial they may be in improving everything from
digestion to energy levels, and everything in between.

Now that we have established some of the beneficial effects of probiotic supplements, lets
take a look at the roles that fiber and prebiotics play in gut health.

The Benefits of Fiber and Prebiotics

The benefits of high dietary fiber consumption are well documented, and have been linked to
improvements in gut health, and even reductions in the incidence of cardiovascular disease.

Adding more fiber to your diet is also a fantastic way of reducing abdominal bloating, and
could even make it easier for you to lose weight.

Prebiotic fibers are undigested carbohydrates such as monosaccharides and


oligosaccharides which are fermented within the gut, providing a substrate for the
proliferation of some of the friendly bacteria we have discussed so far.

This means that certain types of fiber provide the dual benefit of aiding digestion and
improving bowel regularity directly, while also promoting a more preferable gut flora
population.

Examples of prebiotic fiber and foods which contain such prebiotics include wholegrain
wheat, banana, chicory (which contains inulin), and psyllium husks.

Psyllium husk fiber is a very popular and relatively inexpensive supplement which can be
used on a daily basis to improve gut health. This is one product that we highly recommend
using on a frequent basis.

A review published in the Journal of Nutrients in 2013 provided a very interesting distinction
between fiber that offers prebiotic effects and those that do not:

Although all prebiotics are fiber, not all fiber is prebiotic. Classification of a food ingredient as
a prebiotic requires scientific demonstration that the ingredient:

Resists gastric acidity, hydrolysis by mammalian enzymes, and absorption in the upper
gastrointestinal tract;
Is fermented by the intestinal microflora;

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 8
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
Selectively stimulates the growth and/or activity of intestinal bacteria potentially associated
with health and well-being.5

The review then goes on to provide further examples of foods which contain prebiotics,
mentioning leeks, asparagus, chicory, Jerusalem artichokes, garlic, onions, wheat, oats,
and soybeans.

Of course these are all foods which are known to provide a variety of health benefits, so
chances are you are probably already consuming some on a frequent basis.

The only exception would be soy beans which should be eaten in moderation due to their
potentially estrogenic effects in men.

Finally, this fascinating review provides an insightful overview of the health benefits of
prebiotics, stating:

The health outcome data for prebiotic intake is substantially more limited than for dietary
fiber. However, it has been suggested that prebiotic intake may:
Reduce the prevalence and duration of infectious and antibioticassociated diarrhea;
Reduce the inflammation and symptoms associated with inflammatory bowel disease;
Exert protective effects to prevent colon cancer;
Enhance the bioavailability and uptake of minerals, including calcium, magnesium,
and possibly iron;
Lower some risk factors for cardiovascular disease; and
Promote satiety and weight loss and prevent obesity.

So we can see an improvement in heart health, a reduction in the risk of cancer, enhanced
nutrient uptake, and even increased weight loss.

It really is amazing to see how the health of our gut can directly affect so many other factors
of health.

Having said that, this definitely makes a great deal more sense when we begin to view the
gut as the gateway to the body.

This is a concept that we will explore a little later but for now lets take a look at some other
interesting aspects of gut flora and its health implications.

The Case for CLA

If you have ever looked into popular bodybuilding supplements then you have probably
heard of conjugated linoleic acid or CLA.

5 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3705355/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 9
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
CLA is typically used as a fat loss supplement, and is a very popular product used by
athletes and bodybuilders who are looking to retain as much lean muscle mass as possible
while shedding body fat.

Although there is no scientific consensus as to the actual efficacy of CLA in supplemental


form, it remains one of the most popular fat burner supplements available with millions of
satisfied users around the world.

Whichever way you look at it, there definitely appears to be a variety of health and physique
benefits attributed to higher levels of CLA.

Whats even more interesting, is that there are certain bacterial strains which can actually aid
in the biosynthesis of CLA within the human body.

A 2007 study published in the Journal of Bacteriology set out to evaluate the metabolism
of linoleic acid by human gut bacteria, exploring the different routes for biosynthesis of
conjugated linoleic acid.

In this study, researchers took 30 bacterial strains, including lactobacilli and bifidobacteria
strains, and observed the rates at which they were able to metabolize linoleic acid.

The results from this study are rather complicated but lets attempt to make sense of it:

Animal studies and clinical trials have indicated that CLA may be useful in improving
human health.

The uptake of CLA formed in the intestine seems to be minor. However, local effects on gut
tissue might be anticipated.

It is now well established that CLA have antiproliferative and antiinflammatory effects
on colonocytes, so provision of CLA in the intestinal lumen could be considered beneficial,
particularly for inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohns disease.

Bacteria from other ecosystems and from food products which are also found in the human
gut, including strains of Lactobacillus, Propionibacterium, and Bifidobacterium, have
been known for some time to possess the ability to generate CLA.

For the first time, we found here that the more abundant bacterial species belonging
to clostridial clusters IV and XIVa also metabolize LA at some of the highest rates of all
bacteria investigated, forming products that can be precursors of CLA.6

6 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1899373/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 10
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
So basically, CLA is a highly beneficial fatty acid that can be formed in the gut, provided that
the right bacterial strains are present in sufficient quantities.

Some of the bacterial strains we discussed earlier have already been shown to possess
the ability to generate CLA but we can also see from this study that other, more abundant,
bacteria in the gut may also be able to do so.

This further strengthens the argument for the importance of optimal gut flora population,
making probiotic and prebiotic supplements even more relevant.

If you have a family history of heart disease or bowel cancer, or you suffer from irritable
bowel syndrome or even Crohns disease, paying close attention to
your gut microbiota could be just what your body needs.

But wait - theres more!

Your gut flora can even directly affect how much fat you store on
your body, and the way in which it is stored.

Gut Flora and Fat Storage

A study published in 2004, looked at the gut


microbiota as an environmental factor that regulates
fat storage.

This study looked at the relationship between


our gut flora and the propensity for fat storage,
specifically viewing the bacteria in our gut as an
environmental factor in the process.

One of the more crucial aspects of this study is a


protein called fastinginduced adipocyte factor or
Fiaf.

The study opens: Analysis of [germ free]


and conventionalized, normal and Fiaf-
knockout mice established that Fiaf is a
circulating lipoprotein lipase inhibitor and
that its suppression is essential for
the microbiotainduced deposition of
triglycerides in adipocytes.

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 11
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
What this means is that suppression of Fiaf promotes the storage of body fat, specifically
through the process of harvesting energy consumed in the diet.

This process would have been essential to our distant ancestors who would have likely
gone through periods of fasting due to food scarcity. Upon feeding, this protein would have
enabled a greater degree of energy storage by depositing consumed calories as body fat.

Of course, in our modern age we have an abundant availability of food, meaning that what
was once an evolutionary advantage has now become a detriment to modern day humans.

Nevertheless, this does provide an interesting insight into how our gut flora regulates body
fat storage.

The researchers in this study concluded with the following statement: Our finding that
microbial suppression of intestinal Fiaf promotes adiposity, suggests that increasing Fiaf
expression and/or activity may promote leanness. We also speculate that changes in
microbial ecology prompted by Western diets, and/or differences in microbial ecology
between individuals living in these societies, may function as an environmental factor
that affects predisposition toward energy storage and obesity.7

This definitely seems to make formal sense when viewed in the context of the
modern Western diet, which is particularly high in sugar, refined grains, and highly
inflammatory polyunsaturated fatty acids.

These and many other types of modern processed foods in part massively
detrimental effects on to our gut flora. This not only promotes obesity due to
excessive caloric consumption, but it also changes our gut flora to affect
predisposition toward energy storage and obesity, to quote the
study mentioned above.

Gut Flora and Testosterone Production in Men

There was a very interesting study published in PLOS One


in 2001 entitled Probiotic Microbes Sustain Youthful Serum
Testosterone Levels and Testicular Size in Aging Mice,
which clearly showed how certain bacterial strains helped to
maintain healthy testosterone levels.

In this study, researchers explored the effects of


Lactobacillus reuteri on the testosterone production and
testes of mice that were fed normal diets and high-fat diets.

7 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC524219/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 12
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
It was found that consumption of Lactobacillus reuteri provided benefits across the board,
increasing serum testosterone levels and testes size, improving sperm health, and even
counteracting the effects of agerelated testicular atrophy.

The researchers concluded with the following statement: From an evolutionary perspective,
we assert that lactic acid bacteria may have coevolved with mammals exploiting
testosterone to optimize mental, physical, and reproductive fitness. Higher serum
testosterone levels compared to controls in our separate studies correlated with not only
leaner physique but also increased muscle mass and higher activity levels in mice (data
not shown). Benefits of this microbial synergy may extend beyond individual fitness to
reproductive success, impacting a natural selection process favoring evolutionary success
for the microbe and mammalian host.8

Simply put, taking a probiotic supplement could literally give you bigger balls!

But in all seriousness, these sustained healthy testosterone levels could provide numerous
benefits in the context of recovery from training and accelerated fat loss or muscle building.

Gut Flora and Weight Loss in Women

Although improvements in gut flora provide benefits that are directly relevant
to mens health, there are also benefits for women. Some of these
benefits have been linked to weightloss.

A 2008 study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition set


out to explore the
composition of gut microbiota during pregnancy in overweight and
normal-weight women.

Although this study looked solely at pregnant women, it did


provide some interesting insights, showing that overweight
women demonstrated high levels of less beneficial
gut bacteria such as Bacteroides, Clostridium, and
Staphylococcus.

In fact, Bacteroides concentrations were associated


with excessive weight gain over pregnancy.

The researchers concluded by stating that


[gut] microbiota composition and weight are
linked, and mothers weight gain is affected by

8 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3879365/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 13
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
microbiota. Microbiota modification before and during pregnancy may offer new directions
for preventive and therapeutic applications in reducing the risk of overweight and obesity.9 10

The Gut as the Gateway to the Body

We have looked at various aspects of gut flora and the profound effects it can have on our
overall health.

In doing so, we have highlighted a number of ways in which the gut essentially acts as the
gateway to the body, regulating immune function, nutrient absorption, energy storage, and
so on.

Of course, its not just the bacteria in our guts but also those we are exposed to in our
environments that play a pivotal role in our health and many bodily functions.

From the moment we are born we are exposed to all kinds of microbial life, and it is during
these formative years of our childhood that much of the ground work for our health as adults
is laid down.

To illustrate this point, take a look at a study that was published in 2012 entitled Microbial
Exposure During Early Life Has Persistent Effects on Natural Killer T Cell Function.11

As the title suggests, this study clearly illustrates how the microbes that we are exposed to
during childhood can provide beneficial health effects that are realized later in life.

To quote from the study: [exposure] to microbes during early childhood is associated
with protection from immune-mediated diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease
(IBD) and asthma. []These results indicate that age-sensitive contact with commensal
microbes is critical for establishing mucosal iNKT cell tolerance to later environmental
exposures.

We have all been told that it is wise to let our children play outside and to not worry so much
about their hands getting dirty, but now we have clear evidence to back up this conventional
wisdom.

Our exposure to various forms of bacteria early on in life provides us with just what our
bodies need to generate the relevant antibodies and overall tolerance required to maintain a
strong and healthy immune system throughout our adult lives.

SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
Amazingly, the bacteria in our gut can even affect the way our brain and central nervous
system functions.

A 2012 scientific review published in a journal called Current Opinion in Gastroenterology,


set out to assess the communication between gut microbes and the brain.12

It appears as if there is an important relationship between the microbes in our intestines and
our own mental health; a concept that has only been entertained by the scientific community
as a serious consideration in recent years.

Bacteria in our guts influences the way the central nervous system develops, as well as
affecting the way that our bodies and minds respond to stress. As we have seen, this
bacteria can protect us from inflammation and disease, but it can also make us more
predisposed to negative states.

To borrow from this review: [behavioral] effects described to date are largely related to
stress and anxiety and an altered hypothalamus-pituitaryadrenal axis response is a common
observation in many model systems. The vagus nerve has also emerged as an important
means of communicating signals from gut microbes to the CNS.

While there is still a lot of research to be conducted in this relatively new avenue of science,
there is a clear relationship between the brain, central nervous system, mental health as a
whole, and the gut.

Carbohydrates, Fat and Gut Health

In a moment, we are going to look at some actionable steps to


improve your gut health. But, before we do that, there is one final
consideration to be made.

You are going to be training hard on a consistent basis, meaning


that you are going to need to provide your body with plenty of
fuel in the form of carbohydrates or healthy Fat At the same
time, you will likely need to moderate your carbohydrate
consumption in order to lose body fat or simply prevent
excess weight gain while trying to build muscle.

Tying this in with our earlier discussion of prebiotic


fibers, we are going to take a quick look at a 2007
study which was published in the Journal of
Applied and Environmental Microbiology.

12 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23010679

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 15
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
In this study, researchers wanted to assess how a reduced carbohydrate consumption can
affect concentrations of butyrate and butyrate-producing bacteria in the feces of obese
individuals. This is relevant because accumulated evidence indicates that butyrate may
promote apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells and help prevent colorectal cancer. In addition,
an increased butyrate supply has been proposed to prevent colitis.13

Diets that are low in carbohydrates will naturally be low in mental carbohydrates; that is to
say, prebiotic fibers.

This is important because [] butyrate production is largely determined by the content


of fermentable carbohydrate in the diet. Furthermore, this study has provided clear
evidence that the proportions of certain groups of colonic bacteria, as monitored in fecal
samples, respond to dietary carbohydrate intake.

This one reason why we highly recommend ensuring that if you are consuming a low-
carbohydrate diet you still include prebiotic fiber supplements or foods that are high in
prebiotic fibers and include the right amount of healthy fat!

How to Improve Your Gut Health - 7 Day Protocol

This has all certainly been quite a lot to digest, pun intended.

If youve made it this far then youre obviously serious about boosting your gut health and
reaping the multitude of benefits that a healthy gut has to offer.

To wrap things up, lets look at some of the things that you can do in just 7 days improve
your gut health for the long-term.

The 7 Day Protocol is really a launching pad from which you integrate a new mindful
approach to your overall personal health philosophy and take a mindful approach to
transforming your body. I will highlight an approach you can take over the next seven days
which is meant to guide you for the time you remain on this planet!

Day 1 - Examine your sleep routine and begin to increase your level of hydration throughout
the day. Take a probiotic supplement containing bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria such
as lactobacillus. Begin taking your probiotic 2 to 3 times daily. Begin a practice of breathing
deep and reading before you fall asleep. Turn off all electronic devices 1 hour before
bed.

Day 2 - Before you even rise take 10 deep fulfilling breaths and recall something you are
grateful for. You will be surprised how this can impact your life and gut health. Take your

13 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1828662/

SpecForceFactor.com/store | 16
SpecForce Fix and Flatten Your Gut
probiotic morning and evening and today you start to introduce foods rich in fiber.

Day 3 - If you begin to notice that you are becoming stressed throughout the day. Once you
have this awareness ensure you take some breaths to relieve the stress.

Day 4 - Determine what it is that provides you with a sense of calm. Make sure you do this
whenever possible. Introduce prebiotic into your diet if you are low carb. Make sure you
identify a prebiotic that you will actually consume.

Day 5 - Stay consistent with your exercise regime. In addition to your breathing
exercises and your sleep patterns, your exercise regime will significantly contribute to the
transformation of your gut flora.

Day 6 - You should be working toward 9 hours of sleep to provide your body with a full
system reset. Ensure you are continuing with your probiotic as required and stay focused
on stress reduction. Take a look at the amount of alcohol consumption if any and adjust and
reduce where possible if required. Continue to introduce a variety of foods that promote
your overall gut health and reduction of inflammation.

Day 7 - You are well on your way to a complete transformation of your gut health at this
stage as your stomach lining has already changed. Examine the amount of caffeine in your
diet at this stage to ensure you have achieved balance for all of your bodys systems.

Remember!

Eat plenty of foods that are rich in prebiotic fibers, such as:
Chicory root;
Jerusalem artichoke;
Dandelion greens;
Garlic;
Leek;
Asparagus;
Wheat bran; (if in your dietary regime)
Whole-wheat flour; and (if in your dietary regime)
Banana14
Eat plenty of foods that are rich in soluble and insoluble fiber - this can include everything
from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli to oatmeal
Dont be afraid to get your hands dirty. From that dirt, we reportedly can develop strong
immune systems
Take time to relax through your day and practice mindfulness meditation; a reduction in
stress will help to reduce incidences of irritable bowel syndrome

Stay adequately hydrated as this will
also help to aid digestion and promote
intestinal health
If you adopt a low-carbohydrate diet
then be sure to add a prebiotic fibre
supplement such as psyllium husk fibre
while also still consuming plenty of green
vegetables

Conclusion

Improving your gut health really does not need to


be a complicated affair, and simply adopting one
or two of these steps by adding a few items to your
diet could have profound effects on your long-term
health and wellbeing.

The gut is truly the gateway to the body and it should


be treated as such, so stay mindful of what you are
eating and consider the overarching implications for
your body.
