Microbiome: Gut Bugs and You | Warren Peters | TEDxLaSierraUniversity
Can gut bugs change the world? Join Warren Peters on a journey into understanding your microbiome and the new discoveries changing the way we understand diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, autism, and our everyday health and wellness.
If asked, he will tell you that the first part of his medical career was in general surgery, where “if something is wrong with you, I will cut it out." The next was dedicated to lifestyle and natural medicines, where “if something is wrong with you, just try harder." And finally, the last part is dedicated to the molecular and genetic basis of obesity, where "if something is wrong with you, it is the fault of your parents and the changing environment." Within these three perspectives, reside the virtues of common sense and wisdom.
He obtained his medical degree from Loma Linda University, his surgical training at the Mason Clinic in Seattle Washington, and, his Master’s degree in biostatistics and epidemiology from Loma Linda University. He is privileged to travel and lecture nationally and internationally on topics of nutrition, wholeness, and wellness. He has practiced surgical care, wholistic care, and, primary care in Washington, Maryland, Virginia, and California.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

The 'gut bugs for dummies' sounded like a great idea to get the message out to the general population. Great info, thanks for sharing.
Our bodies are a universe in and of itself. So amazing

Absolutely the best Microbiome talk I've ever heard . Especially for such a short video
I had indigestion, bloating, and pain. I started making my own kefir. Cleared it up in a couple of days.
Thank you Doctor for making it so simple for dummies like me to digest and understand complexity of the subject.
Fascinating info! And could this man be any sweeter? :)
Thank you for this amazing and really instructive lecture. We still have a long way to treat our gut bugs as good friends.

I stopped using toothpaste 11 years ago when I joined the marines and it became inconvenient. Haven't had a cavity or oral issue since that day. I also never have bad breath unless I eat something like garlic (which I do frequently to lower my blood pressure)

Someone I know was talking about going to the doctor for a bunch of stomach and gut problems and was telling someone in front of me how the doctor said she had too many microbes in her digestive system and that an antibiotic fixed it. She basically wiped out her micro biome. I winced and didn’t say a word. I have sibo symptoms I’m not perfect but I plan to make yogurt from L. Reuteri and hope it colonizes the small intestine and balance it out that way. 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Very nice talk, a difficult subject explained so well. Is it possible to do part 2 for this talk with all the updates which happened in last 6 year since when the talk first delivered. Dr Peters was so eloquent and made this topic so simple to understand.
Awesome presentation, doc. Complex info presented in such a light, simple and clear way. Thanks a lot.
He is so calm,poise and eloquent....thank you for informative talk.
It seems to me that we need to build our diet around fermented foods. When the Biomes are satiated the mind will chill out

man i was just thinking while reading some neuro cancer research about how cruel we are to them even if its for our apex human species health, development, and eventual enlightenment, perhaps the karma we are simultaneously in for is not all positive despite the medical breakthroughs that may go on to save millions of lives in the future, i could not imagine myself injecting mice with cells that i know are going to torture them, then having to sacrifice them agh, although i realize it has been necessary for alot of the progress we as a people are benefitting off of, it is bit sadistic

There’s a great little book on natural healing written by an older man who cured himself of a number of maladies without medical intervention, called My Physician, Myself. I read it a couple of years ago but lost my copy. I’m going to Amazon right now to order one and be more careful with it. It’s more than well worth the read. You light look into the work of Luigi Cornaro, a Venetian nobleman who lived to 102.

I heard many doctors recommending a whole food plant based diet to obtain a healthy gut microbiome , the more i study about this the more i’m convinced by these recommendations 🌱
Thanks 🙏

I've been able to significantly bolster the nutritional content of my homemade guacamole, which I eat every day, by adding nutritional yeast, sumac, turmeric, and spirulina powder. This lets me add a good deal of protein and meat-like vitamins and minerals and more than double the ORAC value of the guacamole while only adding like 5 calories. This also allows me to skip adding any salt to the guacamole as well. It isn't as delicious as normal full salt guac, but since I eat it everyday, I'm okay with it tasting just a little less good but being super healthful instead.
I use organic unsweetened applesauce as my salad dressing and some vinegar and any spices you like such as organic garlic powder and pepper and maybe salt as in iodized salt which we need some of for the iodine. Sea salt doesn’t have iodine. Best wishes
Brilliant done
Excellent speech!

He may not have a degree, but what he has over some of these experts is that he has experienced Colitis. Those of us know what it feels like suffer from Colitis. I have changed my diet and it has made change to my Health. Also these are the things I found have helped: Diet, Fitness, and Reduce Stress. I find Stress is a big factor and by eliminating or reducing stress has a big factor.

Honestly, this is information that is fairly basic, but it's definitely a good place to start if you need to understand what truly makes health operate correctly. What he is saying is definitely correct. Of course, I'm nobody to anyone reading this, but a lot of times food and what a person put's in their body is what is either making it better or making it worse. The thing about the sauerkraut is real. But, whatever approach a person takes so long as they eat food that optimizes health instead of hurting it should make a world of difference. good stuff ✌
What an excellent Ted Talk!
Great information
This is absolutely fascinating and mesmerizingly enlightening. I l❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ved it.
