Eat yourself healthy -your microbiome and you | Sheena Cruickshank | TEDxManchester

We are never alone with around 38 trillion bacteria co-habiting our body. These bacteria along with a whole host of other organisms make up our microbiome. Our microbiome has co-evolved with us and has many vital roles for our health. Bacteria also have an amazing ability to change and enable their host to do things they couldn’t normally do. However, changes in our microbiome are also linked to a whole host of diseases and conditions including obesity. The big question is whether we change our microbiome to exploit its beneficial functions. Find out how our microbiome is so important for our wellbeing, the extreme measures some people are taking to manipulate it and what you can do to eat yourself healthy. Professor Sheena Cruickshank is an immunologist in the University of Manchester. Our immune system is crucial to recognise infections but also has to cooperate with helpful microbes like the ones that live in our gut and her research focuses on the way the body’s immune system interacts with a host of microbes from bacteria to parasites.
She also regularly discusses infection and her research in the media (TV, radio and press). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Very informative. Thank you very much

Excellent. Thank you very much

Very enjoyable talk Sheena, it is a must we show this at good old THS.

Fascinating! Thank you for the video.

Lots of fiber as it feeds your microbiome

[@wellbodisalone]

She included some interesting points about bacteria.

[@bencreighton5767]

'Assaulted by headlines' what a great quote and informative talk, strong work Sheena Cruickshank!

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

Thanks for sharing this! To add to this, some mistakes people may make in trying to fix gut health include: adding a probiotic to help with excessive gas and bloating (that's just one piece of the puzzle), eliminating a food for 4 days and expecting it solve the issue (will take at least 2 weeks), and not thinking about root causes!

[@civil57]

[@Sammi_rocks]

Loved this brilliant talk. So clearly announciated. Such an important subject and so much potential for improving our health. This is really the common denominator for all the other dietary discussions.

[@plantbasedwell-being3309]

Short and sweet video but very basic. Fibre Fuelled by Will Bulieswicz is a very good book on understanding and encouraging healthy gut flora. It’s based on scientific research by an actual Dr.

[@stevetaylor7650]

Tim Spector zoe predicts study of 10,00 identical twins.each of us share more DNA than gut biome.qe are all different so food reacts differently to each of us.

[@truthdetective4917]

What if the civilization of good microbes🦠 were actually civilizations throughout the whole body ? Intelligent and structured like people , but even more so for the moment. What if your body which houses your spirit was a machine that is operated by these civilizations of microbes , and all we had to do was supply them with the proper food and let them do there job assisting them when needed , after proper research.

[@trancebelial]

For a healthy diet, I would like to try more fermented food. Located in the UK, I drink the genuine kvass for my gut health :)

Microbes are given to us at birth by out mothers. We are mostly a collection of microbes.

[@EatLikeAVeganChef]

Very interesiting, not sure if I agree with the proteins... :)

[@siraaz1990]

Thats because your brainwashed into veganism. Veganism is the biggest lie ever told. Never in the history of mankind have any society been vegan. Never

[@plantbasedwell-being3309]

siraaz1990 Eating more whole grains/organic/plant based food is a lie? Can you explain why TMAO levels increase when you eat meat, dairy, fish & egg?

[@plantbasedwell-being3309]

I agree @ proteins/meat products. There is too much science against meat produce for a healthy microbiota. At the very least people should consider eating meat very sparingly.

[@naturalpowers]

After going vegan, I havent caught a single cold or flu, cured my own allergies, anxiety, carpal tunnel, eczema, and my poo smells like food!

[@beyondcompute]

@prinsesa iomperreo Thanks! That’s very interesting to read!

[@imyouranna]

How did you cure carpal tunnel?

[@monsimix6839]

Could it be that our Gut Bacteria is being Damaged by the Residue of the Herbicide in Round Up Weed Killer that most Farmers use to farm? The active chemical Glyphosate in this Herbicide is being found in most everything we Eat & Drink 3 times a day month after month & Year after year. What is the effect of Glyphosate on our Gut Bacteria?

[@Tk-iz2ws]

Absolutely !

[@creativesolutions902]

There was a man who ate nothing but potatoes as a resistant starch diet. His gut microbiome was more diverse from eating just one food than eating many different foods

[@NirvanaOnTheBeach]

I was eating peanut butter while achieving this 🥲😂😂😂

[@niamhkelly6018]

So the whole point of that talk is that we need a “varied diet”. That must be the most vague thing I’ve ever heard 😂 Also carbohydrates may be feeding the bacteria you don’t want in your gut. 😅 She was a wonderful speaker though and loved the jokes.

[@milanistaminetti]

i disliked it. she barely touched on how to actually correct it. this was like an elementary level talk, never mind tedx

[@Rene-uz3eb]

I could argue the opposite that people eating a variety of foods typically are eating healthier than people on a simple fast food diet which is probably what this boils down to. Each food will have a dominant mix of bacteria processing it so overall you'll see a greater mix. I just don't see where exactly evolution rewarded people who ate a variety of foods happened. Cows eat grass thats it, what about variety there?

It seems that the state of the art has not changed much since those similar videos uplifted in 2006-8, except perhaps for the numbers. Ah well, scientists do not seem to pay much attention to numbers anyway. Sheena is a nice looking girl though.

As a complete layman I would suggest 0% would be the best amount. Apart from the absolute 'ICK' factor, can't you see that there was a reason that your father's body expelled that content of poop from his body?

Not good. Avoid all animal products. We are not baby cows.

[@naturalpowers]

The amount of chemicals in animal products is huge. Try almond yogurt 🙏

[@adorable3817]

Animal product Yogurt actually doesn't have any live cultures in them. They WERE alive when they put them in the yogurt, that's why they can advertise with that. If there were live cultures in the yogurt the lid would explode off within a day or so. Just eat raw fruits and veggies, and fermented foods

[@NetiNeti25920]

Ignore this woke new age BS. Follow the Eastern cultures. Lard, ghee, kefir, fish - all have extremely important microbiome positive ingredients.

[@Lousysalsero]

Sadly, for me at least, this was not informative at all. I knew all of this and have known for some time now, but then I've read a good book about it. What would have been far more interesting is what this lady COULD have said after what she said at the end of the video: what foods does she think wholesome for a healthy microbiome, and not just in general but specific and commented. So it should have begun where it left off and then it would have been much more useful, isn't it...

holly not everyone is different and some do good with vegan and others do better on low carbs. stop trying to make everyone do what you do. We all have to learn, test and find what is best for us. What is with people who try and force the masses to do what they do? They are only one. We all should just be happy for the person when they have found what works for them as you found what is good for you, that is great! It is nice to hear what works for you just don't think because it works for you it will work for all. There is no war here.
