  • NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk for medical advice. While some viewers might find advice provided in this talk to be helpful as a complementary approach, this speaker makes claims about nutrition and the human microbiome with too much certainty for the current state of research. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t...
    Dr. Erika Ebbel Angle discusses why the gut microbiome is the most important organ you’ve probably never heard of. The gut is the second brain, and gut health affects your overall health. This means that you are what you eat, but you are also the metabolites that live in your gut and produce the substances you need for emotional balance, energy level, and disease prevention. Poor lifestyle choices cause gut imbalances, which can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmune diseases, and even anxiety and depression.
    Angle talks about three critical molecules and how they work in the body to affect your overall wellness. She also shares some tips about what you can do to maintain a healthy gut microbiome through diet and lifestyle choices.
    Entrepreneur and biochemist Erika Ebbel Angle, PhD, has dedicated her life to studying the gut. Dr. Angle is the CEO and co-founder of Ixcela, the Internal Fitness™ company. Ixcela evaluates the gut microbiome using a blood sample, and then offers personalized recommendations to restore gut health. Angle shares her lifelong love of science in many ways, including through her nonprofit, Science from Scientists, which brings scientists into classrooms to promote STEM careers and science education. A graduate of MIT and Boston University School of Medicine, Dr. Angle is also a former Miss Massachusetts who used her platform to encourage students to pursue STEM careers and scientific discovery.
    Erika Ebbel Angle, Ph.D., is the CEO and Co-founder of Ixcela, a biotechnology company aimed at developing tests and interventions to improve gut microbiome efficacy and health. She is also the Executive Director and Founder of Science from Scientists, an award-winning National nonprofit focused on improving Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) attitudes and aptitudes for children aged 9-13. Outside of work, Erika enjoys scuba diving, skiing, and classical piano. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

    I had gut issues about 17 years ago. Specialists couldn't even figure it out. Drastically changing my diet changed my life, along with an excellent nutritionist. He is also my chiropractor. Today at 62 I'm in excellent health, no meds, and rarely get sick. I wish more people would listen to what their gut is telling them. It can change your life!

    When someone talks to me about health - whether they're a doctor, nurse, or academic - what I like to pay particular attention to is that person's health. Do they look/seem healthy?
    This woman is 38 years old. She looks to me more like 28. She is fit, and she seems like a basically relatable, likable person (so, emotionally healthy as well). I can't shake the feeling that she practices what she preaches. And to me, that's a sign that she knows what she's talking about.

    I was diagnosed with beginning Lupus about 17 years ago after a blood test showed it. I had a lot of problems with my ligaments and bones. My doctor told me he could prescribe drugs, but it was better to change my diet. He told me no dairy products and no grains were the best things for me to do. I followed his advice and within a month all my symptoms were gone and after a new blood test it showed that everything was great. Up to this moment I feel fine now at age 73 and hope to continue to feel this way!

    Stress got to me this past year. I became depressed and neurotic. Ended up with gout, an inflammatory disorder, then irritable bowel disease. Was not feeling energetic or happy, just apathy. Saw a documentary about the importance of gut microbes. I started meditating, getting exercise and eating gut healthy foods. Sauerkraut kimchi are good fermented foods to increase your prebiotics. Not a big fan of Kimchi so I eat 3 forks of sauerkraut 30 minutes before eating. Research has found the prebiotics from the sauerkraut double after half an hour. 3 months later now I am feeling normal again. Within the last 3 weeks have started to try intermittent fasting.

      @dianeaiken8826 2 роки тому +24

      @@bashmeesh since the other person didn’t reply, I may have some insight. Naturally fermented foods such as sauerkraut have an enormous amount of healthy bacteria, 3 bites-ish, a relatively small serving, is really all you need! And eating before a meal will help “seed” your gut prior to taking in food.
      Fermented foods also are loaded with enzymes that actually help you better digest the upcoming meal, thus, benefitting from better absorption of the nutrients from your meal.
      I do not eat this type of food 30 minutes before, I do eat it right before my meal....😊

    I can say from first hand experience that there is nothing in the world more valuable than being wholly healthy; it's literally the core difference between contentment and peace versus misery and stress.

    Many aspects of medicine are very traditional. I’m in medical school right now and my curriculum (including its structure and content) have not changed much from how it’s been done for decades. I hear occasionally about the impact of the gut microbiome on various aspects of health (including mental health), yet it’s largely from sources outside the curriculum.
    I think it’s important to advocate for greater awareness of the impacts of the microbiome, and especially to further research it. I assume a lot of the reason it’s underemphasized in the medical school curriculum is due to a lack of research (up until recently). I hope that medicine and medical education will have the adaptability to integrate findings in the microbiome. That we will conduct enough research to be more settled on the biology and potentially develop applicable treatments that could potentially perform better than current traditional ones.

    My health, both mental and physical was at it`s worst when i was in my middle twenties early thirties. I developed IBS and Asthma and suffered a lot with anxiety which i was prescribed medication and inhalers. Little did i know back then, that by a change in my very bad diet of mainly highly processed junk foods i would feel and be much healthier. I started smoking when very young but gave up smoking when i was in my early fifties which improved my health somewhat ( i am almost sixty seven now) and went vegan for ethical reasons when i was fifty seven. On a much better diet which is plant based including nuts and seeds and much less processed foods, i am now feeling the best i`v ever been, both physically and mentally. I can`t remember the last time i had a cold or felt poorly and my energy levels are always high and stable. For the past nearly ten years there has been no problems or symptoms with Asthma or IBS or Anxiety and i put this down to a change in my diet, from a very poor one to a healthy good one. If only we were all taught a healthy way to live in our homes and education it would make all the difference to so many things in life as being sick ruins lives and slowly over time the quality of our lives too.

    Currently watching this while trying to recover after a five day course of azithromycin. Started taking for a tooth abscess. Before that I took a day and a half worth of amoxicillin but i was having a bad reaction to it. I just finished my last pill of azithromycin yesterday, and man the last few days have been very very hard emotional. I fully swung into a state of tiring depression and even though it’s been maybe 3-4 days, I feel like it’s been forever. I have already prepared myself for the fact that I will have to restore my gut and I will do whatever it takes. I have never had suicidal thoughts, or been in a depressive episode like this. And it is scary. Luckily I have a lot of close friends and family who will help me through everything but it just can feel so isolating. I keep reminding myself to take it easy and take it day by day. It is sad because before the antibiotics I was so happy. I felt amazing and lively. I have been eating a lot of probiotic yogurt and I am starting to drink kombucha again. I will make it though this. ❤

    I believe diet plays a huge role in both mental and physical illnesses. Probably more then most people realise, I mean you put good oil in a car to make it run better and extended its life, humans are way more valuable then any car so why is it so hard for us to do the same with food? You are what you eat. There is a lot of information all over the internet on food and the brain gut and physiology. Still no solid evidence to back it up tho... call me a conspiracy theorists but I don't think they really want us to know, I mean if a simple diet change can cure hereditary or even terminal illness doctors and pharmaceutical company's can't bank on it. What's a doctor without patients? If no-one got sick billions of dollars and years of medical school are at stake is that something they really want to risk?

      @ResStarchQueen 3 роки тому +11

      @@chandrawellness Resistant starch (RS) has been shown to be very effective on its own. It feeds the beneficial bacteria already in the gut, and produces the short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs, particularly butyrate) that are most likely the bioactives doing the work to feed the colonic cells, trigger immune responses and change the expression of >200 genes in the gut. Probiotic bacteria do not increase the SCFAs by itself, but RS does. Most people have enough good bacteria in their intestines to use RS (although some people with serious gut imbalances do not). Resistant starch improves insulin sensitivity, reduces appetite, reduces constipation, treats diarrhea, reduces systemic inflammation and improves gut barrier - all by itself. All seen in peer reviewed, randomized, placebo controlled, human clinical trials.

    This just talks about increasing the diversity of the microbiome to decrease individual species influence over the body. In a situation of majority rules, gut flora can gang up on a person's behavior influencing systems, if any one species is allowed to become too numerous. This isn't because they have cooperative intelligence of some sort, but rather because our systems have cooperative intelligence and impose that on anything found inside us, to maintain homeostasis. I solved this problem by adding a security protocol for implementing cooperation protocols on newly detected units, preventing cooperation with foreign entities. They are still grouped by similarity, for increased understanding of the signals they provide, but there is no cooperative care involved. That, combined with some clean up procedures, solves the microbiome influence problem in every area that my systems are currently aware of.
