Because of chronic stress in childhood I had 2.5 years on antibiotics for tonsillitis. Subsequent years brought many more prescriptions and ultimately interstitial cystitis and microscopic haematuria, wrongly treated with another 4 years of antibiotics. This has left my gut biome a tad short of bacteria and a high level of histamine. I AM gradually building back up, only this week starting to tolerate Apple Cider Vinegar but just a teaspoon. This is a SLOW process folks! Not eating majority of great ferments is a real stumbling block but these recordings have really benefited my knowledge and moved me forward. The mitochondria shutting down from glucose spikes resulting in inflammation was a real revelation. Eating greens first then prot and fibre then carbs = magic. Thanks guys for all of your generosity of sharing.

Thanks for posting- this is really interesting! I'm unsure why the Ice Man's diet was judged as 'healthy' when he also had atherosclerosis though. Instead of concluding that it might not be associated with lifestyle, could it be that there was something in the Ice Man's diet that contributed to this? Also, could the diversity of gut bacteria be linked to the less sanitised environment he lived in; possibly it is not that a diversity of gut bacteria is sufficient for health but that it is an indication of relying less on anti-bacterial products/pesticides etc, which may be a necessary condition for health. Also, could it also be that eating lots of fibre is not the best way to produce a healthy gut microbiome and it is instead eating seasonally and being in touch with nature and your environment that may be more helpful? Obviously I don't know any of this so if anyone has any research around these topics I'd love to gain some insight!

Before industrial agriculture and food processing, humans ate food seasonally. Looking at an ancient mummy would only tell us what the individual was eating in the moment during that time of year. But it wouldn't say what he was eating most of the time in other seasons. It can't even tell us what is healthy. The reason that this mummy was frozen means he may have been forced into isolation or was escaping. He probably was forced onto a survival diet, not one that promotes human thriving.

However, all that being said, to try to get context on where this guy's mind might be at regarding fats, I watched his video from last month dedicated to fats. I was pretty horrified to see that he posited that "you can drink Coke or have fat, and the body doesn't know the difference"... That is not any exaggeration. It is a direct quote, which he later reinforced again during the episode. That told me everything I needed to know about him. He lacks basic a understanding of these matters, and I won't be watching any more of his "podcasts". With regard to WHO and others, a lot of research findings take years to implement. WHO and many other organizations just recently retracted everything they used to say about cholesterol. Big surprise. These organizations are essentially businesses, with interests.

The Ice Man was a farmer. It is impossible to draw conclusions about the ideal human diet from studying him. Stefansson lived among the Inuit, who prospered on an all meat diet, and had for generations. Our ancestors had to be opportunists and eat whatever their environment provided. The digestive tract of each of the great apes is different, and each consumes a different diet. When the African rain forests retreated millions of years ago, our ancestors with high stomach acids were able to survive on carrion. Ruminant brains and bone marrow were the primary foods of those who survived, and contributed to the evolution of our brains. Plants have always been a part of the human diet. Herbs and spices have been treasured for centuries. But our energy hungry brains relied on animal fats for fuel. See Amber O'Hearn's Lipivore video for details.

@@prossi4216 The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig has a dataset of more than 10,000 prehistoric individuals and over 100 persons from the same period as Ötzi have now made it possible to reconstruct his genome more precisely and compare it with others. The hunter-gatherers of Western Europe merged into early “Anatolian” farming populations who migrated from the Middle East around 8,000 years ago. When compared to his contemporaries, the DNA experts found that Ötzi had a higher proportion of “Anatolian” genetic material. Since he had both ibex and grain in his stomach, it is likely that he was both a hunter and a farmer. Oddly enough, he did not have a functioning bow, but he had a stave that he was making into a bow. He had two completed arrows and eight shafts that he was making into arrows. He was found in a glacier at around 10,000 feet. He was less than five miles from a valley with a lake at around 5000 feet.

A question for Prof Tim that I hope you can address in a podcast at some point. Does changing your diet to include a lot of plants, pre and pro-biotics avoiding ultra-processed food and all the things you advocate lead to clear changes in gut microbiome? And, short of - I can't quite remember the term you used in your book but the gist was - "poo pills" to inoculate the gut, how can we get the beneficial bugs that we might lack? I get that this is research in progress but it would be fascinating to hear the current state of play and what approaches are being looked into. Thank you.

I didn't know that Autism spectrum disorders were linked to the diversity in your gut microbiome, I'm awaiting a confirmation of an Autism diagnosis and I was sure up until this point it was because my paternal side has it, some of my male cousins having been diagnosed in childhood but myself, born in 58 and brought up in the 60s was overlooked as it was thought to be a male thing. I have such strong traits, that after being told by a psychiatrist that he thought I had an ASD, he had the Autism 50 test done in which I scored 47 out of the possible 50, I believe my assessment has been held up by Covid, but that is really interesting to know. I have been eating mostly plant based whole food for a while now and am on day 41 of the Zoe Big IF study, I have found that my IBS bloating and insomnia have improved heaps since starting and I intend to keep to an 8 or 9 hour window (whichever is easiest to stick to as I have learned that it's pointless to try to do too much at once and would rather tailor my restricted eating to times that come naturally to me.) I'm really grateful to Zoe for all these podcasts and this study as I have found it relatively easy to stay within the 10 hour window, without Zoe I probably wouldn't have tried restricted eating.

Cereals, pulses, and legumes are in this combination mentioned in Ezekiel 4:9. Food trade including cheeses and cured and fermented meats also means they traded the bacteria used to make them. The most interesting bit is to me that food trading was a thing at a time when roads and carts where rather basic. The amount of energy needed to transport an iberico ham from Spain to Austria was massively higher than the energy that ham delivered and not strictly nutritionally necessary as Austria has pigs, too, and made its own hams. In short, it needs some research why people traded food at a time when such food trade was massively energy inefficient and the concept of money had not yet been invented. We may need to see what foods were first traded and if they happened to be traded for the bacterial cultures they were made of.

Is there evidence people lived to be old enough for 40 to 50 to be considered middle agged? Is it possible he was actually already very old? I suspect the dieases of our old age may be irrelevant to primative cultures 5000 years ago.

Microbiome diversity minoring factors are synthetic chemicals as preservatives used in processing modern food, wich make it impossible or difficult for microbes bacteria and fungus to "eat" this food, so the consumer gets it... were the gut microbiome of the consumer then has its difficulties ...and all agricultural chemicals and technics used like fertilizers, pesticides and fungicides and monocultures...they all destroy the "microbiome" and its diversities of the soil, so the plants can not grow as healthy and strong and need therefor be treated with pesticides ...wich destroy then even more species ...all of that changed since the last 100 years and the result we see today

When did the mere presence of a particular gut microbe become indicative or causative for all the things that Tim claims for them?

They were clear to point out the strong possibility of genetic predisposition / component that has existed thru’out the ages . Something which the mega wave of keto /carnivore /high fat low carb brigade proponents of YT’ers all tend to whitewash with their often one dimensional selective focuses and biases. Diet alone might help delay the onset of many modern day ‘epidemics’ like alzh, MS, cancers Parkinson’s , inflammation, heart attacks etc etc etc , but given this ancient snapshot spanning 5000yrs it appears inheritable personal genetic DNA needs to be acknowledged as well . Refined sugars and highly processed carbs need to be eliminated , but beyond that , the genetic lottery still seems to play a contributing factor in many diseases .

@@equatorialjourney4478 Many researchers into health are discovering, through their own personal journey to health, that they have several of these genes which impact their health but through careful adjustments to their diet they can now live a healthy life. They suggest that we may have the gene for an illness but lifestyle turns it on. This gives us all hope.
