What this woman did took guts. Her book hit #1 but settled down at #2. Her competition tried to silence her but she wrecked ‘em. The info on the gut-brain connection is food for thought. Some may find it hard to swallow. But she made it very digestible.

She wrote a best selling book about this It was number 1 for weeks and weeks in Germany I'm very happy to see her giving a TEDx talk

What a lovely, pleasant and smart woman

Why haven't more people seen this.. Literally half way through I looked down and said "thank you, I love you" to my gut. This is so cool what the heck. But on a serious note, it's my understanding that the state of one's gut -- and how connected it is to our brain -- is inarguably crucial and important to consider when regarding one's mental health and/or general health. "... people who have conditions like IBS or IBD, they have a higher risk of having anxiety or depression." I strongly feel that when somebody is ill, we need to evaluate various parts of their body -- primarily the gut -- before administering antibiotics or medications. Treat the root cause of the illness, not the symptoms. (:

Yes, we all need to eat freshly washed fruits and veggies as our main dish with a fist size portion of fish or chicken as a side dish. But mostly focus on beans like lentils instead of meat for protein. Saurcrout and plain greek yogurt are excellent for your gut. Nuts and seeds too.

They transplanted gut bacteria from a skinny rat to a fat one and vice-versa, and the skinny rat became fat and the fat one became skinny... That's how important gut bacteria is important to us.

Although I wouldn’t change a thing because of the understanding and strength I have taught myself in order to cope, I wish this awareness of gut health and mental health was more known back then. Awesome work. I look forward to reading more of Giulia’s work.

Read her book last year. Definitely recommended. Started me on my own personal journey of finding out foods and things I could do to help culture beneficial flora in my gut. My mood has become more consistent, my immunity to any bacterial infections had improved and ultimately my life had improved because of it. I also ate a highly processed diet until at least the age of 18 where I was hospitalized at least once a year with an infrequent illness/infection. So I have to thank Giulia for that and wish her all the best in her research going forward.

I would be willing to be studied for a break through on the relationship between gut health and depression. I have had clinical depression and anxiety my whole life. I have also been obese and had digestion issues my whole life. This is very interesting to me. I have so much mental illness in my family and life and society just wants to throw a pill at the problem. It's refreshing to think that I might be able to medicate this with proper diet.

Please more gut bacteria talks. Very interesting.

Great talk, very accurate. 90% of serotonin production is in the digestive tract so if the environment in the gut is disrupted or damaged then it's very possible that serotonin production can be hindered, resulting in symptoms of depression/anxiety.

So helpful and inspiring - Thank You!

One of my fave ted talk ever. Brilliant!

Wonderfully informative and beautifully and charmingly conveyed. Thank you Gulia.

One of the best presentations, that i saw! That was almost the theater monologue and science conference rolled into one!

Wonderful talk which also has a philosophical takeaway: cleanliness is not about eliminating the “bad” as that is impossible to do, but cleanliness is balancing between bad and good. Also, the mind and the body might not be as distinct from each other as some people think, but a whole, unified organism working back and forth.

wow..such a clean talk. very informative..brilliant analysis..funny graphics . right on point. I am sure we need more experts like her on GUT and Colon workings. I wish her break through findings in her career so that all of us humans gain good health from her achievements. I am fascinated to read her best selling book GUT.

Wow,I learned a ton of new things! ...Thanks a million for sharing in such a humorous way!

Fantastic TED talk! Really informative. Great stuff

A lovely person making an unlovely subject tolerable 👍👍👍 I’ve had depression and gut problems my whole life, so I just checked this book out of the library. Thanks for the info!

> "although it's still not about the intuitive gut feeling." Well, Enders suggests just that in her book! Scientific studies of this brain-gut connection are relatively recent and more knowledge is coming in. Intuition comes from our subconscious. The gut contains a lot of unconscious nervous tissue that as we now know is intimitely connected to our internal organs and brain. I think there is way much still to be learned here to say what constitutes our "intuitive gut feeling" and what doesn't!

Such a treat to listen to her talk on the topic of gut (kinda ironic and surprising). She's an amazing storyteller and the facts about the science are intriguing. What an intelligent and creative person!

Very interesting talk. I had a stomach infection in my teens and my gut changed a lot after that. Different smells, no longer can have dairy, etc. I really don't know how healthy that is. The bacteria culture inside of you are really a big part people never think of.

This was a great talk, blending humor with science is a great way to get attention to the topic, doesn't hurt that she's easy on the eyes too.:)

I wondered about the connection between the gut and the brain in the past too, after looking it up and finding more than I thought I would, it made me look at mental health quite differently since.

What a charming lady! A very enjoyable talk :)

Very different perspective on cleanliness. Liked it. Thanks.

Thank you so much! it makes so much sense! yes, "gut feelings", the chemicals sent by our guts determines our mood, and then come our thoughts about our life situation to sustain a story that supports the mood we are feeling and thus, we create our reality from the sort of chemicals that depend on the bateria in out guts. Therefore, look after your guts, your happiness is in there, and the key to self-realization, it has been an enlightening talk indeed!

one of the best talks yet, and there are many good ones! Yes she is attractive :) and charming but also the subject matter is presented in a concise, accessible way and backed up with science, humour and anecdotes. Well done!
