- Prof. Eran Segal presented conclusions from the research on the TEDxRuppin stage and made us question common dietary beliefs.
For additional information see genie.weizmann.ac.il
New research led by Prof. Eran Segals and Dr. Elinavs research unit indicates a drastic change in blood sugar levels between two individuals on identical diets - this may explain why some struggle to lose weight while others, on the same diet, stay lean and fit. The scientists even developed an algorithm that can calculate ones blood level based on his or her biology and lifestyle.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Thank you for not starting a Ted Talk with, "What if I told you..."
Haha.. totally agree
😂😂😂😂
Someone needs to make a video about this.
@bimse katten what if the guy who tyoed that is still alive.
😂😂😂😂😂
To the director of filming for this TED Talk and all other TED Talks: Show me the close-up of the charts until the speaker is done with them. I get no worthwhile info from seeing the speaker or the audience. Show me the charts. Show me the charts. Show me charts. BTW, if you are mindlessly applying some film school rule about changing the viewpoint every so-many seconds, then STOP! Save it for your Oscar-winner. For these lectures, just SHOW ME THE CHARTS!
AGREED
they are videos on youtube that target a general audience afterall, and you can stare at the charts on the speakers' papers at your convenience however long you like. talks and speeches that audiences better connect with prove more successful, and they never connect with the slides

The gut is definitely the "second brain" so to speak and medical schools (which I attended) fail to do adequate education on complex gut function and microbiome.
This was an excellent discussion!
It's not just a second brain. Our gut and brain communicate both directions. The state of our microbiome generates hormones and other chemical that effect our mood everyday all the time. Now consider all the adverse human behaviors that are effected by that.
There is a study in norway or sweden where people who had a nerve running through the stomach were more prone to demencia and mania. This is estimated to be caused by the proximity of toxic compounds in plants (small amounts) as well as sugar and food aditives
Well done attending medical school. You finnish, or get a good job?. Enjoy some years of good health? Am Rob Farr BSc Hons aged 41. I got had 2 daughters. Am struggling these days.
@@nunosilva187 terrible spelling!
Absolutely... I learned this the hard way as when my gut biome tended to wane, so did my mood (and everything else). I couldn't understand what was happening but it all comes down to the roots. When you help those then you can thrive.
The gut microbiome is one of the most fascinating and intricate aspects of nutrition and our bodies in general, yet is almost never mentioned by media or nutritional agencies. So excited to research this myself!
So many people on here with their own preconceived ideas based on their own lifestyle choices. He never said Vegan was bad. He never said people should eat what they want. He never even commented on the morality/benefit of eating certain food types.
He simply demonstrated (In a 20 minute talk) that he and a group of scientists asked a question and sought the answer to: "Why haven't we discovered a diet that simply works for everyone. They then, as scientists do, carried out a comprehensive study that pointed to the result that we all react to foodstuffs differently.
To those rubbishing the outcome or study, I suggest that unless you are 1) As qualified as they are and 2) Do your own studies to peer review the results, then you are not qualified to "debunk" the study. (Why do social media commentators feel they know best because "Muh feelings" or anecdotal observations?). We need more critical and rational thinking taught in schools.
This study does seem to indicate that the multi-trillion dollar diet industry has a major flaw, and that personalised reactions to food intake are a significant factor. It seems to have resulted in predictable outcomes for individuals. The research and results should be applauded.
Finally, to add to my opening paragraph: These results can help anyone; vegan, vegetarian, meat eaters etc. It's science and doesn't care about the choices people make with the results. I, for one, am intrigued both by the question they asked and the results they achieved.
Of course, we'll have to wait for long-term results. It seems they've monetised it and are selling it, which is always disappointing. Let's see what the long-term results are in the field. I guess the diet industry will do their best to rubbish it as a competitor "product" which will muddy the waters.
I like Dr. Michael Mosley who has done some excellent BBC documentaries on fasting and offers so much free advice. He sells books, which is ok as they contain good solid advice, and one can subscribe for a plan - but it's not necessary as there's enough information to work without paying.
Mosley and his advice is hard to critique, as it's well grounded and supported. It remains to be seen whether this group are simply trying to skew their figures to monetise and become part of the problem, or whether they are simply covering the costs of the testing, which can't be cheap if quality is maintained.
I have taken a course on Diet and Lifestyle that pandered to a more Vegan approach. Vegetables are good for us however the bottom line, there is no one diet that exists for all. I agree with Mr Barber. Case in point a Keto Diet that my friend with brain cancer is adhering to has ultimately been not only a scientific choice, but one that perhaps has either saved or prolonged her life. Also intuitively this talk makes total sense regarding genetics and individual body make up.I cannot comment (not doing scientific research) on the subject of insulin resistance and variables, but I am open to what does work for any given individual. "Let food be thy medicine, let medicine be thy food". Each must seek their own path and find what actually works without haemorrhaging your wallet in the process. Namaste.
Very well put. I applaud your ability to use the keyboard as a samurai sword of reason. Thank you.
Great science here, I just hope they open some type of clinic near me so I can go in for testing.
i really think fasting and eating one meal a day is the best diet, maybe low in sugar, and pasta
@@DJB1609 Sir, you have just put things in perspective, with your cautious appreciation, for as you alluded to the fact that they themselves may be agents for a new trend(fad). I'm really relieved that I scrolled down and read your comment and hence not got unusually swayed(though his basic premise that we should rather. ask 'what is the best diet for me' was my own personal observation.). As an aside and a tad controversial, all this talk of promoting longevity, specifically through measures like following low protein diets- I find flawed at two levels- 1) Logic, the same one which latest trendsetters use for, say, intermittent fasting, paleo diet, etc., that its historical/Nature, compatible, is longevity also Nature compatible?.2) And, this is the real controversial one, and certainly politically incorrect, this would lead to Indianisation(and I'm very specific when I didn't say easternisation ) of Western diet. Just see the effects of 'asianisation' of manufacturing. Well, of course,if you are a environmentalist version of a conventional dietician, and would be happy there are no lumberjacks, hence no cutting of precious forests, or no truckers, hence, reduced carbon footprint!!
When you think about the fact that medicines work differently in people, it’s understandable that food would be the same.
don't go further. Just a bottles of beer prove that.
As a professional scientist, I would rate his study a top notch. Easily best research with high impact.
How much were you paid to make this comment?
I would disagree with saying that artificial sweeteners being bad for humans because they are bad for mice. Several things are bad for one species but neutral or good for others, and this is a common fenomena in science.
There are multiple types of sweeteners, that each are absorbed in different ways, so using a broad general phrase that may not even even apply to humans is disingenuous.
@@theearthisntflatpleasestop9899 🤓
He mentioned AI a few times, so the study must be good... lol /s
Yeah ok kid, you’re a “professional scientist” 😂😂. And you guys believe him lol
"The average person eats about 50 meals per week." That's over 7 meals per day! I think we've found the problem right there.
Who eats like that? Maybe, it is average in USA.
I barely got 20 per week!
Maybe he meant foods
What about snacks?
I eat 14 meals a week not sure I know anyone who it’s 50
Humans: Figured out nuclear warfare and virtual realty gaming prior to what food we should consume.. what. a. species.
We don't really have to figured it out. Try eating like humans did for millions years. You'll be surprised.
I tried and it worked lol.
I healed from dermatitis with Paleo.
And flame throwers, which show that at some stage someone thought ‘i want to set fire to those people over there’
It's not the species, it's the civilized industrial culture.

This made the most sense about nutrition that I have ever heard.
You fuckin high? He basically said nothing lol
@@PULAG “said nothing” meanwhile him giving important info about dieting for 20 minutes
@@PULAG are u ok? U clearly didn’t listen to the talk
Told nothing but in general terms wasted twenty minutes to listen him and others…..
@@That_guy_caleb This is astonishingly oversimplified. Blood glucose levels do not solely determine what the optimal human diet is, and if it did, everyone would be using this metric. There isn't a magical silver bullet, it's a whole lot more complex
When first diagnosed with type 2 diabetes my fasting hba1c was 125 (UK). The 3 medications prescribed for me had to be removed one by one for the sake of my kidneys. I stopped eating rice (of any type), pasta, potatoes, bananas and bread, and my hba1c decreased to 37 (UK). Nobody needs ice cream.
Thank you Professor Segal for sharing the results of this study. I can't help but wonder about the progress that's been made in the last 5 years on developing a personalized diet plan.
Same! Any updates?
@@experiments5154 apparently not. read The plant paradox- it's all you will ever need to know and then some.
@@UTAH100 thank you
@@experiments5154 So what is the progress- do you have testing now? Why do you mention ice creams so much. It's almost like you endorse it for SOME. You should not even suggest that. I am really into nutrition. Individual testing is fine but the basics should be followed by most. It's all in a book called The Plant Paradox. You might want to read it.
@tinamu I respect your opinion but I very much disagree. I also read his entire book which I somehow doubt you did. If you did, you might change your mind. He is simply brilliant. I don't say that lightly either. I have studied nutrition, and at one point had a local MD Nutritionist. I have also consulted with PhD's and learned about the interplay between nutrition and cellular metabolism. I agreed with 95% of what was in his book.
There is a lobby against him because he is bad for business. They take sound bites of what he said and spin it- they lie. They did a hit piece on the show The Doctors. He wasn't even allowed to talk. They tried to imply he said don't eat BEANS. IF they read his book, which clearly he didn't he said, you CAN eat beans but it's best to pressure cook them to rid them of lectins.
Bottom line, do what you want but most people would be lucky to read his book. Everything he suggested has worked very well for me- and thousands of others. There are far more positive than negative reviews out there for those who sincerely want to know.
I think the answer to this question "what is the best diet for me?" is simpler than we think. We just need to be more self-aware and start keeping a watch on how we feel when we eat certain foods. If we feel at utmost ease, after eating some foods, those need to be noted down. In less than 30 days, you should have a prescription to follow.
it's not like that, nutrients from food get absorbed in the body from 30 min to 72 hours after we eat them so it's not accurate to trust "how you feel" cuz that feeling it's just maybe an spike in insuline, glucose, dopamine, etc
@@topdota18 You're right, what I meant to say is pay attention to how you feel after you eat, not just while you eat. If you pay attention to how your whole body feels, not talking about the dopamine rush that's temporary but 30 minutes after you finished that tub of ice cream, you know damn well that wasn't the right thing to do. We just have to take note and pay more close attention to those feelings and remember them next time you are about eat out of a tub again.
This essentially means be your own machine learning algorithm to decide on what is best for you. It is actually true from many centuries except there is no study conducted! All the while everyone is trying to listen to experts in every science (though science is always evolving and all the conclusions are based on a controlled study) but not to you who should be expert on you!
Simple and 100% accurate. After food if we feel ease and lighter stomach, no difficulties to movement, that's good diet.
Right
"The best diet for humans does not exist" Eran says in this talk. I've known that for decades. Everyone is different. Everyone reacts to different foods in their own way. That's why it's so difficult to pin down the best personal diet and why, with some of us, it takes so long for us to get it right.
It would be really easy to get right if all humans wanting the perfect diet did exactly the same thing as each other in life and work, that’s probably why someone’s best diet is like their fingerprints, similar to others but never the same ....
All is about psihic .
I disagree with you in regard to this. Contemporary humans are genetically 99.9% similar to any other human on Earth. Due to that reasoning, our reactions should be largely similar.
Yeah but then how would you know what really works for you
@Turro Bandolero I agree with you fully in the reference you made here. But your statement is a far cry from claiming that "everyone reacts to different foods in a different way". Sure, there's some variation, but being that we are all so extremely similar, I don't think the reactions will be that varied.
Excellent research and lecture. Thank you for the work that you and your team have done.
Don’t you just love it when you ask a simple question and the answer is, “Well, it depends…” 😵💫
Most sensible comment. Indeed.
This is exactly what i have been trying to figure out about my own body last 2 years. I knew that my body responded differently than what the "experts" were saying was the good stuff. And i came across this amazing lecture.
I think this was one of the best videos made regarding understanding our individual body dietary requirements. The same thought of making a personal diet and exercise for myself has now helped me to loss almost 20 kgs within a year with my own personalized diet and gym . Maybe this process might be slower than some diets that the dietitians recommend to follow , but it is the absolutely working approach in a lot more healthier manner . Remember age is also an effecting factor. So, be careful while choosing your diet and finally don't make your gut starve.
Hi Aishwarya, this is awesome. May i ask how you developed your own diet and excercise routine that suited you best?
@@rogeraires578 I guess there is always trial and error. Get the glucose meter from your local pharmacy and keep a record of what gives you high, moderate and low spikes. Then only eat what gives you no or only low spikes. See what happens
Two years ago and your comment still holds true. Yes, indeed great video.
We are not individual in our dietary requirements. We are only individual in our preferences.
THIS IS SUCH TRUTH! Thank you! I've been looking at so many and hate to hear people say that there is a one size fits all when each of our internal and external microbiomes and culture is different as well as food availability and affordability. Even in research being done within one country with a particular diet it doesn't take this into account. This is why individual gut microbiome testing is a great place to start. It's not even what we eat, but what we digest and what we actually absorb.
As a high school biology teacher, I'm appalled by what we teach kids in school 😔
Fantastic lecture one of the best I've ever heard! And it's actually producing some hope for us! Thank you!
Just when i thought i have it figured out, this guys comes and messes it all up!
I cannot thank you enough for your work and this Ted Talk! I’m a Nutritional Therapist and the next thing I want to do is find you, so I can learn more! Best science ever! Thanks!
Great talk, but where do we go to find out what works for each of us? If we can't do this by going to a practitioner, what would be the point?
To find out what is best for us to consume, learn and use muscle testing. There are vids on TH-cam. Look up Tim goyetche and muscle testing. Our bodies will tell us, and our needs change daily.
@@amindraf1 We have to listen to what our bodies are telling us.
Did they end up making their algorithms available to everyone? This would be epicly useful for all humanity!
If you find it, let me know please!
Same, I’m interested.
No. Because with such information/technology one can potentially make billions of dollars in profit. So the only ones reaching these algorithms are multinational corporations who are going to sell these 'findings' to death and shove them down your throat through endless micro transactions and mandatory commercials all for the glory of the capitalist overlord
Couldn't you just buy a glucose checker and do some experimenting and find out what foods do what to you ?
@@treefrog0826 Yes. You can buy them at most drug stores.
Brilliant and fascinating. Thank you for posting this. I'm really happy to have seen it and look forward to this information getting out into the medical community.

Believe this 100% my dad ate all the sweets he wanted and never got sick while my mom who followed my dads eating habits developed diabetes heart problems kidney problems strokes.
Amazing presentation -- very clearly presented and honestly quite understated in light of what he is proposing! Bravo.
I watched this more because of the clarity and ease with which the speaker talked than for the subject matter itself. Not that it is not an interesting topic - we all need to eat and watch our diet and a customized diet is a great idea and has a lot of marketing potential too. However he never missed a beat in his whole talk, never got excited, never rushed, repeated himself, stuttered, MM-ed or did any of the things that us lessor mortals tend to do when speaking in public.... just a great talk, with good timing and a perfect delivery.
The potential to help many frustrated, suffering individuals here...the focus on the person not the population makes logical sense.
Paul Chessher i
No it doesn't. Focus on metabolic pathways instead. Most of today's health problems are a result of one thing, ruined omega 6 fatty acids.
Pin drop silence among the audience …no show business from the presenter… just pure truth based on a hard work of a research team. What a lecture 👏 Thanks Ted-talks team for showing this beautiful video.
I agree. Been on keto for over 2 years. I'm off my high blood pressure meds, off my cholesterol meds, taking about 30% pain meds and anxiety meds , greatly reduced inflammation and pain. More energy. No knee pain, clearer thought process and lost and have kept off 40 pounds.
Do you eat meat everyday?
Keri is great but I’ve found it to be even better when you include more vegetables and less meat . I think that’s optimal , for myself at least . I’ve also noticed intermittent fasting helps my body tremendously. Less meals and less portion sizes .
Indeed - I too seem to thrive on keto, but there are foods that I miss, and some keto foods that I don't really like. This talk makes me wonder - what foods can I include despite not being "keto friendly", and what foods should I eliminate despite being "keto friendly"?
You would feel even better on the carnivore diet. Give at a month and see what you think
@@mathiastegtmeier9714 Yea, meat obviously doesn't spike anyone's glucose levels.

What did you learn?
@@crand20033 she learned that fast food is not a diet
@@daveprice3095 lmfao
@@daveprice3095 broke my dreams :))
I do believe this since I never have enough information about nutrition and today will start to explain to the people about the body response diets. Thank you for incredible explanation
I was wondering if there is a correlation between favourite meals and the individual diet.
So people who prefer cheesy pasta and pizza over meaty steak or seafood will also have different individual diets. This would hypothesis that your favorite meal is determined by what your body can digest better or worse and that your choice of favourite food, literally comes from within
I’m borderline hypothyroid which means I have low iodine but I definitely don’t crave seaweed or any seafood. I’m also a bit anemic and need more iron rich foods like spinach. These are things I’m working on forcing myself to eat but don’t love.
As someone who is healthy but had food sensitivities for years, the following questions spring to mind: To what degree is each person’s ideal diet dictated by their genetics versus their microbiome? Would people with identical microbiomes have the same ideal diets? Microbiomes can be altered - what is the ideal microbiome for each person based on their genetics? A very complex subject, but you have made significant progress towards providing meaningful answers.
Yes! Exactly what I was asking myself during this video
Great study. Kind of knew we were all unique when this video began. I was glad you came to that conclusion and I'm looking forward to what personalized solutions you can assist us with in the future!
I am just in awe. What an ingenious study!!!!
An amazing presentation. Indian ayurveda has classified diets according to body types, centuries ago. This presentation had maximum takes from Ayurvedic sciences but yet did not take into account the basic classification according to body's response to food.

This is honestly really important information that, if true (I haven’t vetted any source yet), would change the lives of millions of people. Generally, I think people rely on little details they have learned, likely a long time ago, to guide their intuition of what is good to eat or not. I think this could very easily be a fundamental keystone to humanity’s success
Yo this was 5 years ago…
@@atomatopia1 And a complete waste of time. He taught people nothing and everyone appreciated it.
Fascinating information and great presentation. I hope to see gut microbiome testing as a standard procedure at the doctor's office in the near future
That would be fantastic, then I would actually visit my GP. Also if he would then solve it naturally with methods like CTM food, Ayurveda and eg stuff from Dr. Clark
It is not needed. Just let your body fix your gut's microbiome and everything else that you have damaged. The only time anyone should have to see a doctor is for trauma.

You & your team relieve me from chaos.
I am not doing any dieting anymore because every time I did that the same happened , I lost a lot of weight, became thin and sick and then automatically regained three times the weight I had before starting the diet, the " yo-yo" effect is a reality and very dangerous for the mental and physical balance. Don't do diets, just try to eat healthy , that's all, and feel good about your body even if you think you are overweight , I am sure no one that really loves you really cares as long as you are happy.
By diet he means what you eat. Not Dieting by which you mean a regime to reduce your weight. So if potatoes and ice cream don't spike your insulin then include them is what you eat, but if white rice spikes your insulin then don't include white rice, or vice versa if you react differently.
Excellent research! People choosing their diets based on solid principles like gut bacteria composition, genetics and personal health traits is the best way to eat and live healthy for life.
Glucose responses are only an indirect proxy for the individual's insulin response. We should be measuring insulin responses to food.
True. But difficult. Technology not there yet to measure insulin continously while subject is living in community. The main difference is that protein will raise insulin but not glucose levels. The response is about 1/2 that of carbohydrates. Beans spike insulin like a candy bar.
Can you please provide a credible source for your claims about protein and beans spiking insulin? Thanks.
Self Help Dude search for "gluconeogenesis"
if i feel hungry after meal, is it due to insulin or glucose response?
Oded Wolff There is insulin response to glucose. You are hungry because your insulin response to glucose lower your glucose levels in your blood.

This is one of the best explanations I have heard.
Fantastic! I have thought this for many years, each diet must be tailored. Very glad there is now solid data. Well presented.
So, the solution is to send information to a dietary specialist for analysis?....and to follow their recommendations.
Wow! Without a doubt one of the best Ted Talks that I have heard in a long time. This is really fascinating research on specifically tailored diets for the pre-diabetic subject. I really need to find out more about what Segal and his team have achieved here. Great Stuff! I'm really grateful for this.
Your search should lead you to uphoria the designer nutrition, go check it...
Best lecture I have ever heard . I have been following different diet tips from so called diet experts for the last 20 years ,all in vain and finally I came to the same conclusion.
I think this is great too. At the same time, I think we have enough evidence to know for certain what type of diet isn't best for humans. And that's a highly processed diet. I also think we know for certain than a high protein diet is better due to its ability to maintain and build muscle which keeps metabolism higher in humans. Now where I think this comes in is when you're negotiating what type of carbs a person is more sensitive to or not. That's really the only thing open to debate or different based on the individual.
We're a couple of years later now - can we get our own personalised diets yet? I'd definitely do this!
People keep asking WHAT to eat the real question is WHEN to eat. I reversed my step dads type 2 diabetes with a ketogenic diet paired with a fasting routine. In 2 months no lore diabetes and to this day he has no problems
regerbryan: good for your step dad of course, but intermittent fasting (eating within a time slot) is scientifically nonsense.
You should probably take a look at the science friend :)
Pubmed is a great place to start. They post free clinical studies online!
Here is one that details some of the newest findings on the short term effects of intermitent fasting. They include lowering inflation and decreasing risk markers for cardio vascular disease. I hope you use Pubmed as a resource in the future!
Unfortunately studies on IF are a bit lacking for the long term. But the short term results seem extremely promising !
This is one of the most interesting ted talks. I can’t wait until I do a test and am told ‘don’t eat these, everything else within reason is ok’
Any recommendations on "NON-invasive, CONTINUOUS glucose monitor"?
This talk makes so much sense. As a vegan, I depend on gluten protein (seitan) as the source of my protein while the media is flooded with demonizing it.
why not raising your own animals and giving them a good life and them eat the meat and the rest ?
@@franciscomacedo5670 makes sense if one has time and spaces living on a farm. But Francesco, some people just don't like the smell and taste of meat.
Seitan could very easily work well for you and be catastrophic for somebody else. That's the point of this talk. Your claim that the media are flooded with demonization of seitan is not based on fact. I went onto Google, typed in "seitan", got thousands of hits in less than a second, and ran out of patience scrolling through looking for a demonizing title. Then I tried "Is seitan bad for you?" Again no demonization.
@@SuzanneU you are right. I think I meant this comment to be posted for another video. I agree with the presenter that everyone is different and responds differently to various types of foods.
I'd be very interested to find if there was any correlation between the 'good' diet for the test subjects and what they actually like to eat. Even if there was a correlation between what is their good diet and what they naturally gravitated towards.
I'd be interested in knowing if evolution has had any effect on evolution. Like, if you evolved to want to eat something, is it going to kill you? Sometimes it is difficult to believe how schtoopid people can be, or what level of superstitious behavior the corporations can influence them to behave in so they will buy illth.

Hmmm not sure about that. If that were the case we'd likely see a lower incidence of food related ilnesses.
Excellent presentation! I am intrigued by the premise and look forward to what the future holds for you and your research. Congratulations.
Joe , have you seen anything on Robert Lustig? Look him up.
The information in this video is amazing and superb. Perfectly scientific way to choose the food we eat. Thank you very much for this excellent video.
Got cured of PCOS with the herbal medicine from DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on TH-cam whose channel was the primary convincing platform that made me use the herbs☘️
Thank goodness! This confirms my accidental diet experiments the last few years. My head was spinning with all these different diets - keto, vegan, paleo, etc. I finally realized I have to do low carb bec of insulin resistance.
You can fix insulin resistance with carbs… stop falling for these biased studies like this guys promoting
Fascinating talk. I'd like to see more research into this.
Yeah, when will these algorithms be available to everyone ?
Bogdan Marcu CDC has these
This information is exciting.
I'd like to see who funded this research, who supports said funding and the data on the participants (i.e. group size, age range, dietary history and so on). I find it hard to believe that humans are the only species on the planet that supposedly "needs" menus catered to individuals. That said, more background information is needed on the data conveyed in this video.
Karamoonsage I do not think he said it only applied to humans nevertheless we are the ones with the brains to figure these things out
Excellent presentation skills! Thank you!
Thank you!! Extraordinary- Amazing - revolutionary!! And very liberating. You can t believe, over the past 25 years, how many times, I ve shouted " Eureka" , only to find.out , sometimes the very next DAY, that , well no ...the new hoped for " miracle diet" was FLAWED!!! So many times . And here we learn why... Because there IS ni miracle diet because we are all different
This is extraordinary!
This is amazing. Thank you for your talk!
I have often thought about that a good diet might depend on were you come from in the world.
And seasons!
And of course food availability....
@@chrisbraid2907 Yes, that is a part of my thought.
I've often thought this. There might be something there.
nope!! Cows eat grass, Lions eat meat, Apes eat plants.. it doesn't matter what part of the world you live in, they are eat the same.. That is true for us as a species and we're one of the 5 great apes and that makes us planet based. Fact planet base people are healthier and live longer and that is a fact.
I am very curious how blood type affects ideal diet types. Realizing that years of eating the wrong foods would require a remedial diet to get back on course.
Keto saves me from diabetes hoping to improve my heart failure from bad diet. I had a stroke last year for 1 1/2 month already lost 20lbs and normal sugar.
This talk removed any doubt that personalized nutrition makes complete sense. So glad it’s closer than I thought!
Is the personalized diet option available already, what the speaker off?
Wow phenomenal research thank you 🙏 so much. It is a huge service to humanity.
This is why knowing your body and what foods do what for it is the key!
Hallelujah!!! Finally someone explaining that diets need to be personalized.
I wonder if frequency was controlled for. Such as if one was eating 3 meals a day vs 5 meals a day or if one was mimicking intermitting fasting windows and others had their meals spread out throughout the day not allowing your insulin levels to regulate etc...
I want to know where does a person go to follow this research and avail themselves of the work?
I Wood like to know more about This work
This is the most useful research I have yet seen regarding this subject. I’m amazed that it hasn’t reached ‘headline status’!
FDA and CDC don't want healthy people there's no mansion and yacht of there isn't a dying human sick from chemical laden patented pharmaceuticals! The elite will already know all this, it makes complete sense, if we are what we eat then of course this stands to reason. The general public will be last to know anything beneficial for health.
Peace to you 😇
@@tricklesofsmiles1550 - give the general public a bit more credit. I've known people who think they are the elite and haven't got a clue about diet!
This is the best ted talk I've ever seen!
This is the information we have needed. Can't wait to have the microbiome test available to see the right diet for me. Where or when can we get our microbiome tested?
Viome, I’m considering it, the founder has a lot of good talks too. They also have an app and I believe sell individualized supplements.Sounds like a very informative, detailed test and would save time and energy on elimination diets, to jump start your healing program by determining what you’re dealing with and the source of the autoimmune and inflammation issues
FINALLY, a talk about nutrition/diet that makes sense!!
Wrong. If you chew any food until it becomes liquid no spikes will happen. I am not talking about refined highly processed foods.
Uf! Mind blowing doctor! We’ve been doing things the wrong way for a long time! Thank you very much!
5 years after such promising presentation, Is there a practical way to get personal guidance in the diet?
I am here wondering the same.
Nope. What a crock...
@Slav Kochepasov, yes, it's called Zoe, and is based directly off of these studies.
@@victoriam8951 could u please mention the link here?
How did you determine it’s a promising presentation? And besides the take away from this was to measure your blood glucose after your favorite meals and look for good glucose levels as opposed to sudden spikes. he didn’t want to put food..information in your mouth directly as it was not ideal.
I wish this was available from doctors here in Canada. If it works, spread it around! Franchise it? Whatever it takes.
I've been self-testing and taking it to the next level by also tracking how long it takes for me to achieve a trace level of ketosis after each meal. Someone just showed me this video. I'm finding the best diet and activity level for me through this process. In my opinion, without knowing how long it takes to deplete the glycogen that is stored after each meal you might be missing out on critical data. For instance, I noticed that when I eat chips and salsa my glucose reaction is typical but my glycogen depletion time increases. I've traded chips and salsa for olives and pickles and now I achieve a trace level of ketosis between meals much more quickly. Also, since I aim to eat from a glycogen depleted state, my body quickly assimilates the carbohydrates into the storage space meant for quick access to sugar energies. Eating from a glycogen depleted state also makes it harder to push the body into a state where it is forced to turn the carbohydrates into fats. In 90 days I learned a lot about how the meals I eat affect my ability to transition into ketosis and I lost 30lbs. I've found in my online test group the same thing you've found... Each person responds differently to different foods. Cheers, Mr. Segal Great Work!
Ketosis?
Excellent questions to solve! Now...need to get it commonly available, covered by insurance, & widely known by health care practitioners!!
I’m a data scientist with an interest in nutrition. This is a close to perfect video for me.
How can i contact you
So what do we need to do ??
Outstanding video! 🤩 However, I would like to put it to the test... but how exactly is the question??? Does anyone know of he has released this app? Or how is everyone testing themselves? Any further information to put this knowledge to use? Thanks! 😊
"While averages and trends are informative, for any given individual, they may not mean much."
One of the wisest lines ever.
Average means there are people above the mean and people below the mean. Little pertains to both. Therefore the average does apply to either group. Average applies to average people only and cannot be applied to people as a whole.
Refreshing outlook on diet. Makes more sense to tailor the diet to the individual.
Shastin Grace, agreed. I have colitis, and no generalized dietary recommendations work for me. Through a personal discovery process, and constant adjustment, I balance my nutrition to suit my needs.
it is not refreshing. The Vietnamese heave 3% obesity rate eating rice and vegetables and some fish he is talking rubbish
Eran it would be wonderful, if you could share the list of things that were always in a bad diet and never in a good diet. ( the absolute bad)
Like you shared the example of artificial sugar.
Where can I get my “good diet”?
