Here is the link for easy access! 50% off: trythryve.com/mic. Also for my fellow nerds out there, you can download a CSV (and upload it to google sheets for easy viewing) that shows even more detail like the actual counts of each species!
Hey you should totally sign seaspiracy petition
Here are my downloaded results, keep in mind column B shows whether you are talking about genus, species, etc. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/142MvwGWn-ke68lB4NJ9Z2k9r3N6mUBHjXU6EVb-_RVQ/edit?usp=sharing
Do they do UK?
@Mic the Vegan Hey Mic! Always love your vids! Is it possible for you to do an analysis on the study that just came out saying that humans were apex predators for 2 millions years and ate a meat heavy diet for that time? Because honestly I'm feeling a little scared thinking how anti-vegans are gonna use that study to "debunk" veganism... 😅
They do ship internationally, but at a high cost.
I have ordered. Thanks for organising the discount!
Your shit is certified superb. I guess this is one of those weird flexes.
"BUM ROLL" 😂🤣😂
😂👍
I'd honestly love to see someone like Freelee's gut health comparison. Not for slamming one diet or the other. Would be so interesting to see how different vegan diets compare.
I used to be really into more and more in-depth testing like this gut one. But now I lean more toward Dr McDougall’s approach: “It’s the food.” If you eat healthier, you’ll be healthier. If you’re having a problem and still eating some junk, then just junk the junk.
Damn right. The clue's in the name. If something edible is called 'junk' before it hits the bin, there's a SERIOUS problem in our food production.
“Tries to eat as many whole foods as possible but fails to eat salad” That is soooo relatable. Haven’t eaten white bread in months and probably haven’t had a salad in that long either! 🤣 I’m getting there haha
Salad is a must for our health!
@@goku445 Straight up!!!! I gotta do better. If I ate salad more and got more creative with it, I probably wouldn’t even have a problem with it!
I prefer stir frys to get all the same vegetables! Its al good
@@puffheadedvegan Honestly it is really good when mixed with other fresh veggies. :)
They are a major source of calcium which is one of the few minerals we have to keep an eye on.
Me too. I simply don't like salads. Have plenty of fruit, steamed vegetables but raw vegetables, no. 🙂
Good shit.
*Superb shit 😎
I’m ready to do the test on junk food FOR SCIENCE 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
Glad to see someone volunteer as tasty tribute!
How's the junk food test going? :-D
"tries to eat as much whole foods as possible but fails to eat salad" 😆 we stan a relatable king
it looks like theres always sun in your eyes. et reminds me of beautiful flower
Love this video!! I've been wanting a way to evaluate my gut health for a while and this is perfect. Thanks for going over the process and the details, I just ordered mine!
can you do a "what I eat in a day"? :) love ur channel btw!
I'll add it to da list
This is what health and the medical world should start with! Thanks for the discount code!
I love when you do these test type of videos. I’ve always been curious about the status of my gut. I used to have issues but don’t really have problems anymore, but it would still be interesting to see results.
Super stoked for this! I ordered my kit, thanks for the 50% off, my gut has been not too great in the last year with some bloating, cant wait to get to the bottom of this!
Just ordered my Kit can't wait to get it, thanks!
I eat salad, but as a side to my main meal
I eat a lot of Indian foods, so while I'm having some Rajma and Aloo Gobi on a bed of brown rice with some cashew yogurt, I'll have a side of cucumber, tomato, radish, beets and onion and thai chilis (those small spicy green and red chilis) drizzled with lemon juice
that's a complicated dish, i just eat whole wheat products legumes maybe fruits and cruciferous veggies since i went vegan that's it
@@dimitrisskar4174 I have always loved cooking, when I have the time and energy
You made me hungry.

Unless you bleach it - Slightly less ancient saying
@@MictheVegan 😂
Glad to know I'm not the only one that fails to eat salad. Any one else??😅😅😅
I HATE salad 😂😂😂 Literally the most boring vegan food to me. I need to up my salad game
Ya I’ll eat raw veg out of the fridge but cut up in a bowl with dressing? Not on my watch 😛
@@marlajacques6947 jajaja
Straight-up green salad. No (yawn). Closest I get are toppings on a bean burrito.
I do eat two kinds of lettuce-free Greek salads tho; classic Horiatiki (black olives, tomatoes, cucumber, onions, lemon juice, black pepper, and oregano plus fake feta cheese
I know omnis who are straight up better at eating salads than I am.
Blimey Mic ! You're like a walking Safari Park !
I’m totally doing this! Thankyou great video!
I love these somewhat intrusive/awkward sort of videos.
I'm very interested to try this; will totally send you the results if I go through with it! Always psyched for your videos :D
Definitely doing this, I watch Gojiman and after watching him and now you I've wanted to take a test to see if my gut bacteria has improved since going vegan/plant based 4 years ago. Thanks Mic! With the discount this test is very affordable, and much more useful than any genetic testing!
Kimberley, did you do it? And any good results?
80% gut health score? You’ve got a lot of little friends who’ve got your back Mic
Is it possible to say thank you 100 trillion times?
That means 20% did better. While eating meat.
@@CarnevalOne been vegan 8 years bro, where do you wanna meet up and have a weight lifting session? talk is cheap, let me know where you're at! we can exercise and see how you keep up.
Thanks for sharing this somewhat personal info with us. I am very intrigued to get the test and see specific ways to improve my gut health (as my diet is more vegan and less wfpb).
Ive been meaning to take this test! Thanks for sharing your results! If I was in the US I would use your code but I'm not. Very interesting results.
Interesting, thank you! You can eat dandelion blossoms. The root makes a great beverage dried and ground. The whole plant is edible.
Most colored flowers are edible for humans especially the petals, bitter means toxicity so be careful.
@Julot and some flowers can kill instantly if consumed - so yes be very careful and well informed before consuming any and ensuring you have correctly identified the plant/flower is also essential.
OMG I PISSED MY SELF LAUGHING WHEN YOU ATE THE DANDELION!! 😂😂😂😂
Yeah I lost it.
he's gotta try dandelion greens
Well Dandelion is completly eatable.. :) and healthy
I eat chrysanthemum, lily, Japanese honeysuckle flower, rose, rosella, osmanthus, jasmine, chamomile, butterfly pea.
I always eat dried flower form brewed with hot water or simmered as savory watery soup along with other ingredients =P
Frankly speaking they taste good!
I read somewhere that bacteria in the gut can vary widely depending on the exact segment, which is why stool samples are not an accurate measure of gut health(I think it was on a study on diabetes in aboriginal tribes). Should that not be a concern?
This rant is not directed at you Firefly (quality series btw
This was really interesting and eye opening. Congrats on good inner sanctum and lots of luck bettering the very few not perfect bits. If you pick very young dandelion greens before flowering they are much less bitter. Steam with a little vinegar and pepper.
Interesting video. Glad you have good gut health.
Petition to make it their new slogan 🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
Wait wait wait. Hold the phone. You have been vegan for how long and you don't have SIBO and your guts aren't bleeding or turning themselves inside out?... because don't all vegan influencers get SIBO?! Does not compute.
;-)
Ha well put.
I think sibo happens when they secretly consume too much sugar and refined grains.
@@cheria9399 My roommate's dog doesn't eat those things but she got SIBO. Luckily antibiotics helped.
@@cheria9399 and when they drink a bunch of alkaline water every day plus "colonics" (enemas) 🤢
What even is sibo?
It's what's on the inside that counts. *Cut scene to the metropolis of gut bacteria; in the suburbs, Lactobacillis are having backyard barbecues and ball games, while on the wrong side of the tracks, the Streptococcus gang are plotting a turf war with the Spirochetes*
What type of mushrooms do you typically eat? A mushroom benefits video would be tight!
He did make a mushroom video by now, although I am not sure if that was the kind of mushroom you were thinking about
How timely! I just watched a video with Dr. Will Bulsiewicz on Health Theory about gut health :) So interesintg. Thank you for sharing this Mic!
I was thinking about him while watching too. He tells everyone they could be doing better
Your gut biome is as beautiful as you are! 😃
the inside of the colon tho...is that supposed to be a compliment lollll
Awsome. That is a neat way to look at your health. I am very courious to see if this will be used in clin. practice soon. It should be imo. Cheers
Gut health & microbical balance is a SUPER COMPLEX topic. Pretty hard to modulate too.
The microbiome is so important! We need a lot more studies on it and more public awareness.
Just ordered mine & can’t wait for results !!!!
The dandelion moment made me laugh out loud at the gas station. I got funny looks.
Funny story my dad had a physical exam and his stool test was deemed ‘outstanding’. Not that it was that good he didn’t actually get tested for it so the result was more out standing as in still needed to be carried out but we never fail to remind him of his outstanding stools
I just watched this video yesterday and signed up for the test right after. I've been vegan for 20 years and whole food plant-based vegan for six years and still have so many gut problems it's crazy (plus I had c-diff in 2019--yikes!), so I'm really excited to do this. I guess that makes me a bit of a nerd, but who cares? Thanks for letting us know about this test and for the discount link, which made it easier to afford the test. Also, I'm a librarian and love the in-depth research you present in your videos. Thanks again.
Can you do more what u eat in a day?
he eats a 'low animal fat diet' - there you go
@@craggerrs That's really incorrect. Notice how his name is ''Mic the VEGAN''.
That means he eats a zero animal fat diet. Low would require eating animal fat
@@craggerrs dont know why he said that now I just heard him say it haha
@@80slimshadys freudian slip maybe?
@@craggerrs yea probably
I had severe IBS for the first 33 years of my life. I tried EVERYTHING. Finally, I watched Dr. Mcdougall and switched to OIL FREE vegan diet and my IBS was cured within 24 hrs.. so fast! Now I can eat whatever I want and no crippling bloating and pain! I can't believe how fast the healing took place.
Wish I could say the same. Oil free made no diff for me.
I've never heard of oil-free! You mean like no EVOO? Are there any kinds of oils you CAN use? I just bought vegan cream cheese and it's solid coconut oil, which I was suspicious wasn't that great for me, in the copious amounts I would desire to eat it....
Great info.
yay a new mic the vegan vid!
The dandelion part killed me!
I scared my dog cause I cackled so loud 😂😂😂
Great vid! I've been wanting to do this. Does this company also test for parasites? Ty !
Their “healthy averages” are probably from studying people that eat meat...
it is a complicated matter isn't it? more complicated than that?
Proving that meat is healthful.
both of you jsut want to hear good thing about your bad habits. it is obviously not that simple you ignorant maggots
@@CarnevalOne go to the hospital, take a poll, see how many people are plant based compared to meat eaters.
I guarantee you that the majority in the hospital will be meat eaters. Dairy too, very bad for humans as we are not baby cows.
@@queline8195 By that logic you couldn't eat anything. All foods had their own original purpose and that wasn't human consumption. The cow didn't make its milk for us; but the potatoes, ginger, legumes, groats, etc. did not grow just for us either.
bum roll Lmao!
Very interesting thank you ☺️
Great video!!
Since you have very elevated percentages of some good bacteria, obviously you must have lower than"normal" percentages of other bacteria.
What if it is normal to have less than the maximum number of bacteria? Then there would be room for normal levels of all the bacteria and room for some more than normal.
You are so handsome without that beard! You look 10 years younger and your eyes really stand out!
I had no idea there was type of test available! 😮 This should be very helpful with my Crohn's disease!
This is awesome!! I would love to know more about the studies about the different little guys you were tested for (I read a book where they were called "gut buddies" and it stuck in my brain this way). I very much enjoyed watching your videos on the studies on good cholesterol and bad cholesterol and for the past few years each time I got tested, my numbers were almost exactly the same as yours and I was told that my HDL was too low, yet I wasn't sure how much I trusted that "too low" was actually a thing (at least at my levels). This makes me wonder if the gut cultivates more of certain species than others when consuming a non-vegan diet, and those species aid in processing the animal foods, thereby not being needed so much in someone who doesn't consume animal products? If you've delved in to those studies, I would be fascinated to hear your take.
Thank you Mic.
I wanna get this test so bad!!!
I'll volunteer to eat the vegan junk food and take the test! Literally just polished off a pack of oreos while watching this sooooo shouldn't be too hard
You will be high is Lactobacillus oreous
Too much refined fat and processed sugar, whole foods will always be superior
@@cheria9399 do u think i dont know that
@@cheria9399 White Rice is great tho, but yea whole foods are good
@@commendedzuez0944 Oof! Pick brown over white every time. Brown rice still contains all the husk, the B vitamins, the fibre. White rice has had all that nutrition refined out. Brown rice, brown pasta, brown bread, potatoes with their skins still on. It's all good. :-)
Thanks for making this video. It was really great. However I do wander about the validity of using a stool sample for determining the contents of the gut microbiome. Thoughts on validity of this as a method for analysis -v- colonscopy with biospy and culture?
Mic you could also probably drink dandy blend. ☕❤️ Taste just like coffee and it's made out of dandelion root.
Sweet super interested in this, thx Mic
I learned that eating animal products, especially meat, spends dangerously way too long in our large digestive systems. My grandad and uncle, who lived in the same house, both ended up with bowel cancer from their heavy and "traditional" meat diet that they had. There is no doubt in my mind, that their diet played a huge part.
Thanks, Mic. Very interesting. Will consider. Congrats on your superb-ness. But we knew that already...
I echo the sprouts recommendation, and consider also red cabbage, per Dr. Greger. As you demonstrated, dandelion greens should be abundant out there in Iowa-like right outside your door. Salad days, Mic...
And just for anyone who may not know, dandelions are absolutely essential, for bees to survive in early Spring when there isn't much of anything else for them to consume. So never take more than you need, and usually the rule when foraging is only take about one third, ensuring the plant will continue growing in that area. 😊
The whole dandelion is edible. You could certainly follow through with nomming on that flower.
my mom grew up eating dandelion greens
That's some good shit.
Great video Mic the vegan showing how he is thriving on a whole foods plant based vegan diet.
Unfortunately, Thryve is not available all over Europe. Only the UK so far. Do you recommend another test provider for the rest of Europe?
When he ate that dandelion I DIED😂😂😂😂😂😂! Great video!
my mother's dandelion potato salad recipe: in spring pick the young leaves and short bulbs or purchase the leaves at the store or sub with curly endive... marinate some cubed tofu with some turmeric, salt, caper juice or black salt (set aside). steam or boil potatoes and cut them up, add whatever chopped veggies you like (onion, celery, carrot, cucumber, minced garlic, etc). mix everything up with the warm potatoes, add cleaned, chopped dandelion leaves and buds and use an italian vinaigrette or whatever dressing you want... you can also add capers and/or chopped olives.
I can relate to your failure to eat salad. I do pretty well on broccoli though.
So I was actually in the pilot study (double-blind placebo) of this company... and they just released the results so now I can compare mine to yours! I have other health issues, so mine should not reflect on vegans as a group. 80% wellness, 93% diversity (suspiciously similar to yours?), but my levels were all very low (I had to take multiple rounds of antibiotics a few years ago due to a septic infection and my gut hasn't recovered even after 3 years)
I have pcos I'm wanting to try a whole plant based vegan diet, where do I even start any suggestions
this is awesome!
Do they let you download a CSV file? As a programmer, I would love to get my hands on a copy of the CSV file if they have one. Would like to extend my app that parses this kind of data. If they have one, would you be interested in giving me a copy of it?
Does anyone know the differences and similarities between this test and Gojiman's tests? I've been wanting to seek consultation through Gojiman for some time now, however the tests provided on his website are exorbitantly overpriced.
I was thinking of Gojiman too. I'd like to see what he has to say on this. If this test can help, I'd have my gf try it, and hell, I might too.
@@Atypical_Chad Yeah I'm really curious what parameters they test for, and how many are relevant to Gojiman's realm of study. The company points out that they don't necessarily do diagnoses, and that they're non-FDA approved. They do provide raw data and parameters that could be interpreted, though. So I'm wondering if you could save money doing Thryve's microbiome test, and still doing a consult with Gojiman, seeing as he's more able to provide access and info regarding vegan probiotics and necessary antibiotics.
Mic the Vegan knows his shit.
I remember reading something somewhere about how it’s actually good for your gut bacteria to change composition as you age and that some gut bacteria that might be okay for you when you’re very young will indicate bad health if you still have a lot as you age- I’m pretty sure bacteroides was one of those you don’t want to hold onto as you age. This fits in with my theory that though things like animal fat and protein might have had an evolutionary advantage for us at one point - prolly cuz they make us grow to full size faster(def a good thing if you’re a hunter/gatherer), are really bad for longevity.
@micthevegan it doesnt let me use your code! i clicked the link and it still says 99 it should be 50 no?
I shat myself when he ate the Dandelion
🤣🤣🤣 lmfao
I've been able to eat **way more** kale after I learned the trick to "massage" the washed & torn up kale pieces with a little olive oil (and then keep a big batch in fridge in airtight container to add to everything). ☘️🌱🌵🌿🥑🥬🥗🥬
Hilarious lol Great information!
Better start slamming that dandelion tea mic
What did they base normative data for gut microbiome on??
If you own an instant pot you can always throw in a handful of frozen or fresh greens in with oats and an assortment of seeds,grains and red lentils for a great morning or anytime meal. I do it every morning and it's so good it makes me feel massively lucky to be plant based.
This sounds interesting? What do you season this with?
@@Vanessa-bk4nv I usually put two apples or an apple and a pear cut into wedges. Also a half teaspoon of dried ginger, half teaspoon of whole fennel seed, teaspoon of anise seed and if I have some dried fruit around I will even add that as well. Needless to say with a cup of oats and all the different additions I have to use about 4 and a bit cups of water. I just mix and match with the oats and red lentils as the base. And I always add a huge handful of the greens as well. Sounds like a lot, but between the girlfriend and I it is just perfect.
9:17 this is what people think vegans do for a light snack
I love vegan Kim Chi but it's a double edged sword because its loaded with salt 😊
That is why I stopped eating it!
If you find your kimchi is too salty then be sure to rinse the cabbage very thoroughly after the salting/softening step. The primary purpose of the salt is to draw moisture out of the cabbage leaves and once that has happened you can rinse all the salt away.
Here’s a relatively easy recipe that I find gives consistently good results: minimalistbaker.com/easy-vegan-kimchi/ (and note that while it calls for a tablespoon of salt, most of that will be washed away (and the recipe makes 15 servings, so per serving it’s not that much)).
@@jpe1 I made this recipe from this exact same website just last weekend and it was not as salty as the store bought ones.
I made some and it's not that salty. I used the absolute bare minimum while still keeping it safe. Especially as somebody that doesn't add a lot of straight salt tho I do use veggie bases and broth powders to season my food
is 99$ the discount price? I've tried to enter the code but doesn't work.
MIKE: I did U-biome a few years ago. I was low in some allegedly good bacteria, and high in a couple bad ones. That was lacto-ovo me. It was also a free test, with a lower number of tested for bacteria, and I haven't seen ads for it in a while. I can't pay for tests, but I wonder if my Medicare/Medicaid might?
Do you take Probiotics or fermented foods?
NIIICE!
I wish I could get this test done but don't think it's possible where I live. It's really interesting!
There is a company called "Day Two" who does a similar gut test based in Israel. You might have some luck on that side of the world. Or there is viome based in the US. I'm sure there are more companies popping up that offer this service near you. Good luck.
So, I often get dry skin and eczema because I've been through Caeseran labouring?
Hmmm interesting
Yes to sponsorship! But no to mid-roll ads.
Hello mic and have you thought about live streaming on twitch and starting your own podcast in the future
Maybe if my CZcams collapses, don't want to spread myself too thin for now though.
okay that good and have you seen coming 2 america movie and to all the boys i'v love movie and wonderwomen 2 movie and the justice league snyder cut movie and marvel wandavision show and the falcon and winter soldier show and bridgerton show on netflix and what do you think of the super bowl game and the halftime show with the weekend last month ago
@@MictheVegan but, still podcast is a very good solution...
I feel sometimes that the videos are on the short side... Like here, with the gut, imagine interviewing a gut specialist... And you could pick things related with your study/work...One podcast every 2-3 weeks... pretty please! :-)
with the U.S's health epidemic being so massive.......our gut problems are far
larger then 20% considering that's the source of "inflammation".....
OMG, it's not just me with the salad thing. I like salads, it's just not a habit!
