Silent awareness spreading breaking the recently developed myths with most accurate facts .. kudos to all ur effort. God bless
Thank you!
Discovered your UA-cam channel a few days ago and am going back and watching each episode. This video, as with the rest, are hitting it out of the park with knowledge! Thanks for sharing your knowlege!
Being a microbiologist, gut microbiome is a fascinating topic of interest to me. I have personally read some of the research papers from which you highlighted some of the information for this video. But such a informative, well-researched, and engaging video this is!
Thank you!
You have a very prgmatic way of thinking and expressing yourself. Theat makes your content easily digestible. ❤
Thank you!
doctor sethi talks like writing a 16 mark question in board exam
😂😂
Wow! Lovely take on the Gut Microbiome... Thank you Sir
If possible try and share methods of fermenting food at home or which you practice. Debunk some of the myths surrounding that. Love your content 😊
I do have a video on Fermentation: ua-cam.com/video/GQXa6MQvt7g/v-deo.html
Used to listen Darth Vaathiyar, Rains of castemere, Sidhucrap on loop on Soundcloud a decade ago and now it's good to see you embark on a totally different journey myth-busting popular fads, beliefs surrounding food & health!
This is super curated information.
Thank you!
I see all the vides for maintaining diet and searching the foods which is rich in fibre, protein and good fats. But, no vide is giving me that much of satisfaction. At the age of 47 I am satisfied that my search is ending with your great video. Hereafter if I have any doubt, I will definitely search your videos for my clarification. Thank you so much sir 😊
You have an Amazing narration ability, with of course, the knowledge. Thank you for a wonderful piece of information :)
Wow! Super great information. Thank you ❤
Many thanks…. Your videos are wonderful…. Your presentation and enthusiasm is great…. this is a branch of medicine that is really motoring now… we were taught ( retired doctor) that the appendix was vestigial and of no function but now appears to be a refugium ( a refuge) for bacteria when one has a bad gut infection.
Fascinating!
Super like. A great podcast, full of useful information, clears the mind of doubts and queries, and above all, superbly articulated. Thank you so much
Thank you!
Thank you for contributing knowledge! I have aphasia. (Aphasia is a language disorder that affects my ability to communicate effectively. I am currently typing this text using assistive technology).

Krish! Have been watching your videos for a while now. Love the content. Although I've had a burning question that I'd love if you could answer in a video. For the many people who are completely vegetarian how can they ensure they are eating all the right nutrition, like how to consume a full profile protein diet or how to get vitamine b12 that vegetarians lack or how to keep carbs lower. Basically a full guide on how to stay healthy and vegetarian.
Will post a separate video on that!
Same question
That episode would be delightful to watch
@@krishashokAlso, vegetarians with lactose intolrency.. how do we meet protein requirements?! And if we want to go to gym and build muscles, its a headache to find 100 grams of protein to eat in a day for vegetarians with lactose intolerence.. it would be great if we can get your take on this..
Loved this one!! ❤
Great video! You say bacteria unlocks the vitamins. I'm hearing a lot that vegetarians lack b12 in their food. Can bacteria get us vitamin b12 ? Info on this would be great.
Thank you for sharing knowledge. I have doubt sir. How this bacteria survive in acid medium of stomach and enters intestine without being killed in stomach.
And you didn't answer the question why our immunity not killing this bacteria because it is coming from outside? And why gut bacteria not attacked by immunity? Thank you sir
Luv you bro.. very brilliantly narrated video about gut health..thank you so much..
Thank you!
Krish, you simply Rock!!
Thank you
well explained while being concise....love your work Krish.
could you please make a similar video on collagen.
Please check one of my previous videos “The Science of Protein” - it does discuss collagen
@@krishashok Thanks for replying.
I have seen that video... was requesting for a detailed video on collagen...do elderly people need to consume collagen supplements (asking for my mom 65 yrs ) or just the increased protein intake would make the essential amino acids available for our bodies to create the necessary amount of collagen.
Very well said Ashok in the video.. I had come across a company Auxochromofours that do gut microbiome sequencing and determine these food bacterias from stool of individuals.. got some sequencing done and found some solutions for supplements as well.. Most to all of the information is still unknown of the gut and in India because of population and food diversity as he said the microbiome changes from one person to the other and keeps constantly evolving. If someone wants to check their microbiome contact them they would be happy to help..
Yes, in fact there are now new techniques that involve taking bacteria from healthy individuals and transplanting them into the guts of people with health issues
Thank you for all your excellent content,can you mKe a video on difference between ghee and clarified butter,please show ,how to make authentic ghee,love from South Africa,binge watching ❤
There are 2 ways. One is to just slowly cook butter and remove the non-fat solids. The other is to ferment cream, churn that and then cook that down (makes for more flavourful ghee)
So basically when we say playing the dirt increases our immunity, this is what is actually happening. We are basically enhancing diversity of the gut bacteria...
Indeed
That’s why eating on floor in traditional Indian setting is good for health
@@krishnaleela1 don’t think that is necessarily the takeaway. Not all bacteria everywhere are beneficial. For instance, soil bacteria can be pretty pathogenic.
So eating roadside food improves gut bacteria?
@@krishashok👌👌❤❤
Thanks for demystifying the gut information
love from DietTube India at the age of 16 i get teachers like you in my life im so glad thanks sir my life is gonna be really good cozz you your support
Thank you
@@krishashok 😊
Such an amazing eye opening video❤
Thank you!
Thank you
Is indian kanji made with sarson or rye powder with beetroot n black carrot a fermented food ,good for gut,and can we have it daily
Thanks a lot for this amazing video. Could you please let me know if Spore Probiotic is safe and effective? I've bought Youth&Earth Spore Probiotic which has Bacillus subtilis HU58, Bacillus Coagulans SC208 and Bacillus Clausii SC109. Are these strains safe to consume?
No opinions on specific supplements
First of all , thank you so much for making this video. One of my friends is working on a project that's studying the effect of the Gut microbiome to our brain.
Btw, I'm lactose intolerant. So , recently I have started eating home made curd after lunch. It has improved my bowel movement, and my overall digestion. Thanks to all the Lactobacillus. Did you know, Lactobacillus Delbrueckii is also the national microbe of our country?
Also, would like to say that YOU ARE MY FAVOURITE UA-camR. Thank you. ❤
Thank you!
Great information..can you share evidence for the point on erythritol altering oir microbiome. And in how much dose of erythritol..Thanks
Thanks.❤❤ I have been following you for a month or so and your videos are packed with info with a lil bit sprinkles of humour 😊. I remember reading somewhere 95% of seratonin are produced in our gut!!
Btw I do think we Indians should come up with our own version of what is unhealthy Indian food. Lots of processed food like pizza burger fries are still not daily staple majority of Indians. But do we still eat healthy? There’s an alarming rise of diabetes, bp and cholesterol in Indians plus Indians are traditionally I think protein deficient.
A well thought provoking information of gut health
Very informative! 👍👍👏👏
Awesome👍
Thank you!
Breakfast cereal is bad for our Gut. Same for bread, what should I eat for breakfast 😢? It is not possible to make dosa, upma on weekdays, due to shortage of time. I usually take eggs daily in the morning with bread or cereal.
Hi Ashok, just wanted to pen my heartfelt thoughts to you since i have been a silent follower, admirer, student & then after reading Masala Lab, i have kind of become your disciple (if i am allowed to)..
How on earth do you get so much of time & energy to manage so much & so effortlessly (seems like) ... IT/software which remains your core, science of cooking (algorithms, heuristics etc..), mythology linked to our foods( Rahu/garlic etc),
Just unimaginable ...starting with crisp Adai (by ua Grandma), eggs vs milk(which is scientifically a veg), nutrition science, History (science behind upma, Kappa meen etc, History behind biryani, pulav etc), science & history behind chillies, Now Gut health through this video & above all, a passion for music (Raja Sir's songs played on Violin/Cello unbelievably)
For me, you happen to be from a different planet Ashok..
This is from one of your disciples. Hope I get to meet you once!
Regards,
Venkat
Thank you Venkat!
Thru your you tube analysis on good and bad gut bacteria,, now I have understood lot of new this on this subject and am adjusting my food habits and started giving good results.
Dr. Pals interview was very informative. Lord it.
Thanks a lot sir..
Love it.
Have a conversation with Dr Abbey Philips , Gastroenterologist
Yes, know him well. Will do!
Second this. Great video!
i think the microbiome react certain way when bad food or bad emotions from the brain through vagus nerve are sent to them. making them feel deprived or uncomfortable or react in certain ways that kills them or make them to leave this environment. but it just what i think. not sure. but good video overall im learning a lot.
Thank you!
Good information
Make a video on brain gut bacteria connection
Informative precise well explained love ur videos❤
Thank you!
Oh, wow. Its almost like you knew I just got (after years of waiting to be able to afford it) a VitaMix Pro Series 750 with a 64 oz container. I'm going to really go to town on making fruit & vege smoothies with buttermilk. I love buttermilk; especially with a dash of salt and some toasted, ground cumin in it.
Great, concise informative video 👌
I am an asma patient. My doctor advisee not to take fermented curd. Is fermented food is anti to wheezing??
Always listen to your doctor in case you have specific conditions
Hey a question, Doc said that whey protein is safe but also added that sucralose is not good for the gut bacteria, having whey protein which has sucralose affect the gut bacteria or it's in a safe limit to cause harm?
@krishashok : About “Probiotics” - How do you think they pass our stomach juices intact? There is growing concern among scientific community that taking probiotics might not help increase the gut micro-diversity.
Does eating cooked curd harmful for health? Many north indian dishes use curd as a base, but ayurveda forbid heating curd. What is your opinion.
No it's perfectly fine
How do refrigration of idlii dosa batter affect the bacteria in them.even curds.
Hey just came across your wonderful channel and aubsribed today!
Any advice for someone with ulcerstive colitis?
Not a physician, so I cannot provide medical recommendations!
Just saw dr. Pal podcast and was thinking about this topic
Ah yes!
Hi, very informative video. can you also plz tell is it okay to consume Psyllium Husk on a regular basis as it claim to be a kind of fibre.
Do you recommend any foods that can be included in daily diet that'll help the gut microbiome?
Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits and dals
Very well explained thx
Great content as usual, why is meat not discussed , is it avoided concisely ?? I'm only just curious, I'm vegetarian by choice...
Meat typically plays little or no role in the context of the gut. We digest everything in meat (protein and fat). Bacteria in our gut are primarily feeding on plant products
Is Soaking overnight cooked rice fermented food?
The longer you keep it soaked the more nutritious it is?
Upto a point
@@krishashok is it a good probiotic?
Yes @@GeetaPandey-u1o
It is true or false drinking water after meal affect your digestive process? Pls clarify this confusion.
Absolutely untrue
Dr pal and his friend sarvana kumar will be most awaited guests to your show .
Hi Ashok, can you please make a video/podcast on Kangen water.
Already done - search for Scienceisdope alkaline water
@krishashok Thanks a lot, it really an eye opener. You are doing tremendous good work, hats off to you. Big fan.
How to restore gut bacteria after antibiotics
I wish to see the research papers to the statements
Lots of books - read the one by Ed Yong
does this mean that keto/low carb diets with high protein and fat are not necessarily good for us?
Low carb doesn’t mean less fiber
@@pb99865 neither did I challenge that
Can you help with a child suffering eczema and allergies since birth. Now nine years old. Thank you.
I am not a physician and cannot provide medical advice. As a general rule, I would also suggest not asking for advice on the internet, even from doctors, since accurate medical advice requires individual in-person diagnosis
Will cooking after fermentation kill the microbiomes like iddly or dosai??
Yes
While Whey protein in itself may not be bad, they are almost always sweetened with artificial sweeteners which you pointed out are not great. Unflavoured options do exist, but not as common. Just something to keep in mind.
the amounts used are pretty tiny but yes, if you can get an unsweetened one, go for it!
It's easier to make whey at home and use it in making rotis sabzi etc
Is jaggery good for gut
Dr Krish 🙏👌🙏👌🙏👌😆
Haha. Saurabh is the doctor, not me!
Yeahhh Saurabh 😂
Really informative video, I hope your channel grows and keep up the good work. I think you can do with a better editor though 😅
I do this as a weekend hobby and focus on science story telling instead of fancy editing 😅 I don’t want to feed the algorithm with a typical high budget style one sees on UA-cam all the time. Let’s see. Perhaps if the channel grows, I’ll consider using an actual camera instead of my phones selfie camera in vertical mode 😁
yes I'll pick science story telling over fancy editing any day but i feel that the editing will bottleneck the quality story telling that you want to post because these things do matter unfortunately and this is coming from someone who is not superficial at all, but anyways you do what you feel is best and let me know if you ever need some random guy for your video 😂
@@krishashok Hi Krish,
Sharing a thought about the on-screen content.
What I love and wish to see more of:
- Absolutely loved all the parts where you and the doctor were explaining things on-screen.
- Occasional callouts and images for things that viewers like me would struggle to picture as you explain it. eg: Picture of dna helix, bacteria, intestinal tract, other science related images.
- Surely, a few funny pictures or short clips sparsely used.
What did not seem great:
- Having you pushed to a side while the right side of the video was constantly bombarded with images and memes that latched on to every sentence you said. This was mostly distracting and seemed unhelpful. I started watching your youtube content after watching you on instagram. Your content on instagram seems to have far less of all that side content, but lots of you in the center. I feel there's been better balance in terms on content on screen on IG.
- Too many generic/poor quality images that seem to deteriorate the overall quality of the video.
In summary, I really like your videos when you are the main point of attention in the video with maybe occasional images to help viewers picture things and a few well-placed funny clips.
Thanks for the feedback@@sharonroyk Since I dont do this fulltime, the idea is to reuse my instagram vertical videos, and since most of the youtube audience (unlike you) tends to not like empty white space in their videos, the need to add visuals that keep their attention. But if you see my latest video (on spices), that is now horizontally shot for youtube and there are fewer distracting images/memes etc
@@krishashok Aah! Got it. I thought you had a team doing it for you, or so I heard from someone.
Will check out new videos!
can you do a video on how Tamarind affects our health?
That means our brains can be controlled to an extent using our gut. 🤯
i started noticing ur videos only after seeing the Delbeouf illussion one through whatsapp . after that i searched and somehow traced ur channel. (my journalistic instinct helped me ha ha). one common thing with you is that i too do a lot on debunking myths about many things. anyway good. are u based in india or US?
I'm based in India
@@krishashok continue bursting myths. one thing i liked is that one of the interviews u correctly told that all substances have chemicals ie some people are obssessed terming certain things are natural ie like honey u pointed out. for that only royal society of chemistry has offered cash prize to anyone who can show any living or non living thing which is not having any chemical. no one has claimed the prize till now.
Everything is fine, but under the picture enlisted examples of bad and saturated fats, the mention of coconut and coconut oil is misleading! The creator should pay attention to such misinformation also!
I also felt shocked to see that. Coming from a costal area we survive on coconut oil and products 😀😀.
Otherwise a great video!
Hi Ashok, I have followed you on Instagram for quite some time and this is your first video I have seen on youtube (long format). While the information was no doubt great, I found some bits to be redundant. Longer time frame obviously is better than 90 sec reels for in depth understanding but editing could definitely improve. Big admirer of your work.
How can artificial sweetener affect gut health, but whey protein powder which generally sweetened using artificial sweetener does not affect gut health?
nice one.. thanks for this.. but @14:22 it says Raw Milk & cheese in the picture.. probably not intended but just informed
Ah noted!
Healthcare professionals in India prescribe Antibiotics for viral infections such as common cold !!😮
Terrible!
Can you throw some light on Fecal transplant to help gut health which is sometimes used to treat certain diseases
Do alcohol effects gut bacteria ? asking for a friend
Yes it does!
Hello sir, I want to ask that no matter how much and how many times I eat, I feel hungry 1-2 hours after eating, don't know why, is there any specific reason for this or I have just become lunatic 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great video BTW🔥♥️♥️
makes me wonder why gaumutra is consumed in certain rituals ? 😮😅😢
You mentioned idli and dosas as post-biotics while d doctor mentioned idlis as pro-biotics....kindly explain the fact
Bacteria gets killed during cooking, probiotics have live bacteria like curd
Dear sir, I'm a professor in Ayurveda college, please provide a reference where Ayurveda says that mixing of fruits is unhealthy ..... ????? I think there's no such mention..... Discussion is welcome 🙏
I wonder who counted million or billion or trillion microbes in gut. Hiw close is it to actual microbes present
I didn't find monk fruit without erythritol in India
I never knew our own desi channel had gut microbiome as a topic, yay!!!
Why people say jaggery good for gut ? Can you debunk this myth if it is myth?
There is a distinction between microbiome and. Microbiota.
What about gheee?? Isn't it much better than yogurt??
Absolutely not! Ghee is just fat!
Coconut oil is healthy fat..
I need some guidance from you on oils, how to contact you as cannot find your email ID
Cesarean delivery does not seem to be the way where evolution has inclined in any animal, so didn't get why calling vaginal delivery as normal is an issue with inclusivity of language.. unless it was used to create a taboo for moms and babies who go through c-section. There's obviously more concern as it involves a cut.
1. Necessary as both lives are important
2. Choice of the individual for various reasons
@@christopherkannusamy7484 Where have I doubted the necessity? or even the choice for that matter? My point is calling something normal doesn't automatically tarnish the other way as somehow bad right? In general language normal is used as what happens more commonly. Like a normal person is used in place of an average person or how we may use 'normally' to start the sentence to describe the regular daily routine, or diet or type of music you may consume etc. - doesn't mean you're somehow troubled by other days, diets or genres
Then why don’t we say “common” delivery? Normality typically implies its opposite. Thats all. And it’s ok if you prefer to use normal. Go ahead! I’m saying I prefer to use another term
@@krishashok As I suggested above, it's often just used interchangeably with average or common, at least in Indian English and it's hardly limited to the description of delivery. I wonder if you have taken this from any survey etc. but aside from added concern due to surgical procedure, I haven't seen any taboo in the general population, certainly not among the ones who would speak English and thus use the phrase, to suggest that they imply c-section (or assisted / epidural) is somehow wrong. In the US or UK they may call it natural birth, I doubt the unnatural one is seen in any negative light there either. The phrasing simply seems to be rooted in how evolution shaped the mechanism and the alternatives we were able to achieve.
Also, I asked because you mentioned about how Indians refer to it, neither suggested that you somehow stopped me from referring to it in a particular way nor did I question your individual choice of words - so the latter clarification is unnecessary :)
👍
0:59 Fungi, sir ji.
Very informative video thank you for sharing this.
But, one point... let's keep vaginal delivery as normal delivery because it is, please don't normalize cesarean delivery. Specially, in India where it's already an epidemic. Every private hospitals are so eager to do it to every mother that I have lost respect for the doctors. So please let's be progressive where it doesn't hurt others.
As someone who doesn’t have a uterus, you or me don’t get to decide this issue. My opinion was on the basis of observed biases where vaginal delivery is “preferred”, putting needless pressure on the woman. Ultimately it should be the woman’s choice, not society’s
@@krishashok many videos claim that the vaginal delivery babies get more abundant bacteria collection from the mothers vagina/gut which improves the childs immunity. If that is true it should be the normal and the preferred delivery method. In that case it will be ‘short term discomfort for the mother and long term comfort for the child’.
Delivery method depends upon both maternal and fetal health, and the hospital infrastructure and support available. It is absolutely wrong to stamp vaginal Delivery as normal and better that caeserian because the factors determining the decision of which method to choose are always very varied. On the whole it's very stupid to generalise saying vaginal Delivery is best for the baby.If both die during Delivery will you be responsible then?
I will still call it normal delivery 😂
