The Gut Microbiome with Chris Damman, MD, MA

If you are interested in nutrition, you have likely heard the term, ‘gut microbiome,’ but what is it, and why is it important? Dr. Chris Damman, clinical associate professor of Medicine in the Division of Gastroenterology at UW Medicine shares how our bodies are transformed by bioactive compounds in the foods we eat. He addresses how a new approach to what we put in our bodies is inspiring next generation nutritional approaches to non-communicable diseases.

    I'm in a Canadian study regarding the C Diff bacteria. I will give a brief overview of how I caught C Diff. I ended up going to emergency in July 2023.I was bleeding internally! I found out that the bleeding was due to stress! I stayed in the hospital for a week, and I received iron daily to rebuild the blood that I lost. While I was at the hospital I contracted the C Diff bacteria! To make a long story short, I received a FMT ( fecal microflora transplant) a month ago,and I am grateful for the opportunity to get my new microflora 🌝 I feel like a new person mentally AND physically ❤

    One of the best presentations I've seen on this general topic. I'm wfpb 77 yo and have heard hundreds of presentations on this.

    If the inflection point started in the 70's it seems about the time processed foods prior to this time turned into profits that health started down a slippery slope

    Use a color coding system like green, yellow, and red foods possibly 4 or 5 colors.

    It's no big mystery causing these things. High fructose corn syrup is on about everything. So are hydrogenated and altered fats. Them there are forever chemicals. All these are known to be endocrine disrupters and that alone leads to obesity and diabetes and heart disease. Not only that, but our soil microbiome is depleted , and vegetable have less vitamins and minerals than 50 years ago.

    Agree with you 100-percent. It is getting more and more challenging to not only find healthy foods but to be able to afford them. 😢

    Very informative. Great, easy to follow speaker. But, why on earth do so many in these fields dodge questions like "what medical specialty should we see next?" Can't say it out loud? Is there some kind of secret handshake? I am currently desperately seeking similar medical help and competent medical help always seems to be just out of reach. I can read about it, but not find it. I did really enjoy the presentation though. Thanks

    I’ve lost my cord for my Sota magnetic purser. How can I get another one? I don’t see it in products in your web page…

    Absolutely, get or better still, start your own fermentation processes. Foods and drinks like kefir and kombucha. Make lacto ferments with a dozen different ingredients. Don’t get hung up on animal products or metabolic pathways. That’s not what you need. The natural world has been providing us with a wide range of nutritious components - and a wide range of foods is what gives you the most diverse microbiome, which makes for a more stable microbiome and healthy human ‘Supra organism’.
