If there is such thing as a Good Parasite.. then it would not be called so! by definition it is not symbiotic!
I changed my diet to Mediterranean and make my own kombucha and kefir. I also eat sauerkraut that hasn't been pasteurized. My brain fog is gone, my crippling depression is gone, my energy and motivation is back to a solid state. I sleep better and exercise more. The repair of my diet plus the probiotics has a cascading positive effect throughout my whole life.
How did you start to make your kombucha and Kafir... how did you source?
You should start fermenting green tomatoes also,they are delicioase.
@@insidiousmaximusstart eating yogurt and cut the bull shit. You will fight your depression better. If not you get nice 💩 😉
Thank you, this is inspiring
@@insidiousmaximus People share is not preach dat. You unhappy man dat and das one. You learn be happy, and then you will stop want to preach negative dat. You die soon too, so dont waste a the time for you to learn the humble life of surrender. You squash like bug under life foot, snuff-out like a the candil flame. Dat.
I tried SSRIs for severe depression but they didn't work. I was referred to a Chinese doctor who had a reputation for curing depression. She asked me about my diet and whether or not I had noticed any unusual reactions. I told her that eggs gave me severe asthma attacks, and that this had never happened before. She was just nodding along and writing down a prescription for three medications. They were for antibiotics. I thought she was nuts. I asked her what exactly antibiotics have to do with depression. She smiled and said that I had bad gut bacteria that needed to be killed. I took them and three days later I never, ever experienced depression again.
The reason i quit drinking was because of the impact a few drinks has on your gut. It effected me for days and lowered my mood.
A lot of people don't realise that alcohol is a depressant.
It's great when you're drinking . You feel normal.. it's when you stop, you feel like shit.. you agree?
Alcohol alters sleep too. In my case when I drunk on Saturday night I slept bad until Tuesday.
@@jisimon The mechanism probably is that it lowers your testosterone which in turn lowers your sleep quality. The body has all kinds of these feedback loops that effect hormones in various ways. This is why people who take testosterone can have much shittier lifestyle due to fact their testosterone is gonna be there since its injected.
This is true, Your Gut feels more than you think. Intuition is the key actually.

those ar eall healthy.
Manmade shit, u will just destroy ur gut. Plants are mqn made, scam to brainwashed
This is incredibly interesting and let me explain why... I received eight rounds of total body irradiation, and a few rounds of chemotherapy for blood cancer that I had a couple years ago.
Before then, and throughout my 20s, I would experience bouts of depression or low mood... not regularly, rather I'd go through seasons.
The depression was tangible for me, though.
However, after my treatments for cancer, something changed in my mind, in some strange kind of way it almost seems like my treatments altered the depression. I just didn't feel that type of depression in that part of my brain anymore.
Radiation and chemotherapy obliterates everything in the body... so I began to wonder if radiation destroyed a harmful bug that was emitting these chemicals/messages to my brain. Anyway, it sounds ridiculous typing it out but I still wonder.
It doesn't sound ridiculous at all. That is your lived experience. Awesome that something positive came out of a negative experience. Thanks for sharing. 👍 Best wishes.
You never know..... I had a similar experience, from my early teens to late 30's I was living a lie, most of the time I was depressed, I could sleep for 24 hours and still be tired. I always felt I didn't want to live I guess. Anyway I plodded on, I never had much health issues so I'm lucky I guess. Never really took any drugs for anything medical.
However, around the age of 40 I was washing in the shower and felt lumps under my arms, both my arm pits lymph nodes had swollen and they were like a bags grape's . I was straight on to a doctor's appointment. The doctor was his usual non-reaction mode and prescribed some antibiotics, he muttered something about virus and proceeded to was his hands after prodding my arm pit.
Anyway,I took the medication and felt tired and sore around the chest and strangely the throat and neck. Oddly,after about 3-6 months I realised my brain fog had gone, I slept better, i don't need as much sleep, I wake quite happy and I no longer have the doom and gloom in my head. Obviously life events happen but the are manageable.
Perhaps a coincidence, but the difference in my own being is obvious to me. The before and after, I was different and I'm all the happier for it.
@@rogil2154 super interesting. The human body and mind are so complex.
@@michellemarie07 Agree, fascinating to think that it's bacteria that could be running out minds. I take everything with a pinch of salt but when I do have the moments of eating healthy and exercise, everything does seem better, or at least not doom and gloom. I hope everything is well with you. 👍
Many people experience radical changes in the way they see things after surviving cancer. Might have something to do with that as well
Your channel just keeps on getting better, much respect to you and the team behind it bro. 👊🏼👊🏼
You’re truly limitless! Don’t let your mind bind you! Love yourself and keep moving forward! ❤
I think my bipolar is caused by bad gut great video thank you
For most consumable substances, the difference between nutritious and toxic is a matter of dosage. Even water.
Such a good and helpful podcast. Very easy explained and so many amazing information. Thanks a lot!
LOVe this channel!!! Keep up the great work :)
“Most of the bugs in our system are trying to help us”
This is mind-boggling and vital for our improved health! Thanks for this fascinating information. I already enjoy a so called mediterranean diet, yet i still feel depressed. Can you add to the kinds of foods that might help to further relieve this problem?
Soooooo interesting and such a help. Love this channel
Very helpful video
Thank you
Great video thanks very much ❤❤❤
Excellent, absolutely fascinating. More please x
I had a depression 3 years ago that took about 6 months long. After the 5th month I end up having appendicitis. On the 6th month, after talking to my doctor, he adviced me to take some probiotics, along with my anti-anxiety and anti-depressant medications. From that moment I started feeling better and finally fully recovered
What probiotics did you take?
@@panaroux promind
I have similar situation, i was heavily depressed too with constant suicide thoughts, and then i developed chronic prostatitis, i was literally living in hell for 4 months. Until i began changing my diet and talking supplements with probiotics and prebiotics, agter a few weeks i began to see results and depression is almost gone and i have no more prostatitis
Stop saying: "the bigger the Channel , the bigger the guests". You have great speaker already. Its not nice for them. Because it means they are not big guests. But Great content , keep going. Thank you
What a good point. Geez I hadn’t thought of that. Thank you I appreciate this comment so much
Agreed
The university of CZcams strikes again. Golden!!
Very very good video
I changed my relationship with food & health over the past 5 months, and have lost 17kgs and cured my IBS all thanks to improving my gut health and ZOE.
I wouldn’t say I was depressed, but I am dramatically happier now than I was and am documenting my weight loss loss success on my channel - hope to see some of you there ❤

U guys rock ❤❤❤❤
The best probiotic I've ever used is ENTIRO !!! Brilliant product
This is why I feel a slight high and elevated mood when I consume raw plants from my garden. If you think about it, root plants even when washed still have trace soil on them. Even that I’m sure has beneficial bacteria
Yes, that is what I do. Home grown veg is a probiotic.
Raw vegetables are the best source of anti-nutrients and anti-digestive enzymes though?
IN some Countries they eat a pinch of soil every day, not in Europe though after Chernobyl.
@@gaptaxiClose to the border, maybe. But Not really anymore. Please do some reseach . The soil in Europe is perfectly fine. Chernobyl is 40 years ago in 6 years time.
@@angelahorsburgh9954 I think they are prebiotics, because of the fiber content.
To be fair if someone put mouse poo into my gut I'd be depressed too 😂
Love to see effects of omad on this!

Thanks for watching!
100% true
Are tinned foods useful here, considering these have been raised to sterilizing temperatures during their processing?
I’m trying to go back on immune suppressants as I have an auto immune disease and even with a very healthy diet, plenty of vitamins, water and exercise my skin is getting worse. I’m currently having cryo treatment to help the pain. I’m at lose with my condition and it effects my mental state so much these days 😞
What diet do you follow
@@MrAbi123 I have tried a juice cleanse for four days and then went on to a higher protein diet which includes more fish and beans. I mostly eat green vegetables, fish, some chicken, no dairy or eggs, no bread, very little sugar and for fruits I eat Bananas, Mango, blueberries, raspberries.
I also have been drinking green teas, plenty of water, liquid probiotics, kombucha, homemade kefir and apple cider vinegar. No alcohol and I do not smoke. Recently I have had a really bad reaction to not using steroid creams any more. This increased my condition so that sucks also. I will be taking a allergy blood test soon. Also I am waiting for a decision to made here in Holland if my health insurance company will pay for my medication. I am still at a loss with my condition and now it has got to the point where I can not work so I spend my days working out and studying to get a career I can do at home. My sleep pattern is crazy as I itch a lot in the night when my body slows down, sometimes I do not sleep till 6am and then sleep most of the day. At age 35 it sucks to be this bad.😮💨
Please try the carnivore diet first
@chrisbrowning550 I would advise you to try taking magnesium and vitamin a softgels with food. Give it a couple of weeks, you will see the difference in how your skin will clear up and your sleep will get better as well.
@@onegod731 Thank you. I am currently undergoing cryo treatment and a few other treatments. I will buy some magnesium in the week and see how it goes. I have already started seeing improvements in my skin and sleep. I have also been excepted for Himuar immune suppressants which I will be using in the coming weeks. As much as I don’t want to take medication, my life has become to unwell to give natural things a try if they take to long. I plan on keeping to a healthy life once on medication and well keep up with treatments and a health diet and vitamins. Thank you to for advice :)
As a nursing student in 1975 I asked my patients about their diet. The healthy older patients said that they ate "everything". Go figure......
That's probably the key ,they ate everything. Good and bad ,many people eat a restrictive diet devoid of good stuff.
50 years ago, eating everything was very different to today.
My mum would say that. She doesn't stress it.
But looking in at her eating she has a fair bit of fresh veg and some fruit every day. Incredibly in the UK at least not everyone does!
She just follows her lunch with a bit of cake or a biscuit! Strawberries and cream after dinner, she's living the good life!
A swathe of people here eat completely beige.
@@markwalton3367extremely different. Even the good stuff nowadays are poisoned
For sure they were not consuming artificial sweeteners and syrups!
How about people advocating for carnivore diets/ or even plant based?
How do we weigh the risk of getting a bad bacteria and potentially dying, against the benefits (intestinal, gastronomical, and in plain efficiency) of eating a wider variety foods and preparations, less washing dirt off, less cooking...?
Good question! I just recently had a very bad day after eating old hemp seeds… Often the packings are too big and the food goes bad when too long open😢. Also the preparations/cooking take so much time that you don’t want to buy new groceries every day…
i'm on carnivore and it's the easiest because you only need the bacteria that ferments meat and fat, the omnivore diets have a lot of issues populating the right flora because there are so many variables and factors to take into consideration, interactions, reactions and so on.
In 1996 I had my colon removed and I've lived ever since without this organ. What effect is that supposed to have if it us the equivalent of missing a brain weight of bio material?
You tell us. Has it had any effect on you?
You had colon removed not your small intestines that absorb the nutrients.
I know it does not affect nutrient uptake but I wondered whether it affected the gut bacteria and if that is likely to have an affect on me. From experience, I don't think the physical affect has changed, but mental affect I'm not so sure
@@adamhuntley8719 I may sound arrogant here but I am not gonna trust the scientists on this one completely. They miseinterpret data and draw false conclusions all the time and alot of time driven by conflict of interests(selling books or products). For my, again I will sound arrogant, really logical and decently informed and intelligent mind, it seems logical to me that its the quality nutrient uptake that makes all the difference in ones body and brain. The resulting bacteria in the large intestines is exactly that, a result of a healthy diet and to claim these bacteria are responsible for neurotransmitters in the brain is ludicrus and backwards. If someone were to put healhty bacteria in your large inestines then how on earth is that gonna solve the lack of nutrient uptake? They are trying to flip the whole system upside down. It all starts what you ingest, how you ingest it, how good is your stomach acid and then how does it get absorbed.
Done
does wheat and other foods that have round up sprayed on them kill needed bacteria in our guts?
I have heard someone mention that their stomach issues cleared up after switching to organic food.
I just start fasting huy! I have too!
What do I eat to help me I have psoriasis and major mood issues and depression is comen on a lot lately
google is your friend
Soo is this where the saying down in the dumps comes from
We need to eat more real food. Plants and vegetables and cut out processed foods.
No need to cut the processed foods out. Only need to have proper food everyday and processed as desert or enjoyment. People focus so much on negative but fail to realize that doing positive things is so much more powerful.
His views during "the pandemic" though....
There's a saying in my home town where I grew up as a kid. "Your GUT is like your second brain"
And plants messed up our gut
Good quote
@@hoop-td1uqmany vegetables are very bad for our digestive system. Many create unhealthy gasses and are also hard to digest and pass through our system

Does anyone know what I can do - if I eat fermented food it gives me a migraine. But I suspect that my migraines might be linked to a gut biome problem….so it’s a vicious circle?
May be linked to elevated histamine levels - fermented foods can raise histamine levels for people who are histamine intolerant. Not all fermented foods beneficial for everyone - kimchi gives me migraines
You are probably Histamine Intolerant and should avoid anything fermented, preserved. Vinegar and wines should also be avoided.
Oh God, l'm so bugged out. So what do we eat?
Do you know in Asia, Vietnam for example, we have full series of foods that can fill you up with micro-biome ?
Bún đậu mắm tôm, dưa muối, nem cuốn, mắm tôm ngọt, nem chua… 😂
I need help, my gut is on pain, bloating, its like im pregnant gas, im in depression already, have this around 1 year. I got ecoli infection in my urine system and took antibiotics, first 3 weeks was look ok but after it started all over again. Cant handle this any more , cant eat dont have hungry. Infeel like im die slowly. So sad, please help.

Plants🌱👍
Are man-made bs, to feed the slave minded people's. Plants are full of toxins and will destroy ur gut.
Here's a question:
What impact on the microbiological content of a food would microwave cooking them have?
For example if you want to add peas to your lunch but choose to microwave them, would this reduce their benefit, would it destroy the microbiomes you may otherwise intake?
No effect, there's no microbes in the plants they're already in you or they're not. Learn the difference of prebiotics vs probiotics. Plants are the former.
Absolutely. Microwaving complety kills the goodness in food ! For an experiment, try growing 2 seedlings , water one with pure water , and water the other one with micro waved water . U will be amazed !
@@laravladimir493 In the context of gut microbiome your answer whilst it might otherwise be true is nonsense
@@laravladimir493 microwaving is just a way to heat. Try instead using water that has been boiled on a stove compared to microwaved water for a seedling. It's heat that chemically alters food. The benefits to heating food that makes them easier to digest. Depending on how messed up your gut is cooked vegetables can help.
Ohhhh and Grand master wolf... !!!
Hi what was the comment on drinking coffee?
I don‘t remember his comment here but I know that he drinks coffee every day for the polyphenols and the antioxidants.
What do I do then as I have no bowel?
By saying plants he means different kind of fibers. He isn't very clear... Good gut bugs thrive with fiber. Top it up with sourkraut, some kefir and you are good to go!
Bad gut bugs also thrive with fiber. If there's an imbalance, then both will be fed, and with the addition of sugar/starches or processed foods it can cause a debilitating overgrowth of the bad stuff, which then can expose us to a plant's natural protective toxins (e.g. oxalates). I learned the hard way - on No Plant GAPS at the moment to heal a very damaged gut. Sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables (kvass) are on the cards, and eating live yoghurt made from raw milk (unable to tolerate dairy for 10 years, but now it seems I can), and brewing my own kefir.
Decades of severe anxiety and panic attacks disappeared practically overnight when I cut all plants. Quite incredible how that works.

So answer this. When i get a cold or ill i get constipated is my 1st symptom then i get depression and anxiety for whole time i have my cold or flu. It then takes me several days or a week aftee my cold has gone to feel like myself again
Same with me

How am I supposed to get my shopping home then?
@@alexpopowski1318 use a crate 😂
@@szn2241 I can’t guarantee the crates weren’t transported in a bag at some point.
He’s talking about unprocessed foods guys. 🙄
Surely the different veg would need to be organic? Otherwise you've got chemicals sprayed all over them?
It sure helps, but our bodies are quite resilient and can remove many toxins. The fungicides, pesticides and herbicides do impact our bacteria and cells/endocrine system. Grass fed, wild fish and organic fiber/veg/berries fruit are optimal if you can afford it. Real food is cheaper in the long run and short run than processed and fast food. Mark Hyman does these analysis and helps disadvantaged families save money and eat better with real food.
Organic vegetables get sprayed as well. Just with different chemicals. Make sure, to do some research, before you blindly trust in them being 100% healthy.
And stuff that's imported...well. How trustworthy do you feel 'organic' produce from South America or China or even Southern/Eastern European countries (more of an issue for me) really is?
Supervision isn't exactly stellar and it seems, that whenever someone bothers to look closely, cheating is an issue. Which isn't surprising, giving the pressure to make a profit.
Of course, if you have access to local sources, that's different. But I personally don't particularly trust 'organic' produce from the supermarket.

Very smart and intelligent. Totally like the message and all the info, especially with our Eastern European diet being quite close to what he is saying how it should be. But as a widely acknowledged person, participant in a video viewed by hundreds and thousands, no offense at all, he would have looked nicer clean shaven.

This guy is smart however he obviously has never experienced the discomfort of an overgrowth of blasto and blasto multiplies easily. It's about getting the balance of parasites right and therein lies the problem.

Still no knowledge about what mb causes best outcome. His example of the Hadsa mentions sterile food and antibiotics which confounds any implied causality.

30 different plants a week? Can't see many following that.
Sounds easier than depression. Its 1,42 different plants per meal if you eat 3 times a day. Sounds plausible to me.
