Rejuvenating Healthy Gut Microbiome for Enhanced Brain Ageing | Nika Pintar

Thank you for plowing through all the background noises. Very interesting talk. Definitely see the interaction between our various microbiomes and feeling status. I have noticed that in myself especially since becoming strictly Whole Foods and restricting saturated fats. I’ve added algae based Omega 3’s, wheat germ to my supplement regime.

Thanks. On IBS or disrupted gut microbiome in general, wouldn't some of the fecal tests work to help better diagnose? Also, am well aware of importance of gut (and oral) microbiome and SCFA, so eat plenty of fiber via a good plant based diet, do time restricted eating which give the guts a rest and increases BHB, and eat fermented foods (home made soy yogurt and sauerkraut) twice daily. Sonnenberg lab showed that multiple daily portions of fermented foods lowered a range of inflammatory markers.

A simple google search showed me that Nika here isn’t a biologist or medical doctor but has a marketing degree. Now, if you have a full scientific team behind you as you say, why not let them convey the knowledge and progress they surely understand better than you do? Maybe it’s because its not about the science first after all? :) Furthermore, this all sounds dandy, but where is the actual published and replicated data? You talk about preclinical trials but don’t show a single figure or number that’s been peer-reviewed, published, or cited. And yet, you still have the face to sell your products as food. How are the products being personalized for a plethora of possible and complex diseases? Who are the scientists and experts behind this research and personalization? On your website you list 7 supplements. Are these your whole portfolio that are used to target every individuals’ unique needs? Also, as prof. Maier brought up, can a picture of a tongue even be used a model for microbiome assessment? This and many more questions are not even addressed here. They haven’t even scratched the surface. There is nothing of substance here, just lots of fancy sounding yet empty words spoken to get you to buy their unstandardized and untested product.

She lost me at the N=1 description of her own symptoms. This is unusual for an NUS medical speaker where data and evidence usually come first.
