@@elizabethblackwell6242 there are many possible triggers for starting autoimmune process. Such as: stress, leaky gut syndrome, excessive insolation, lack of sleep, parasites. Genetic is not the only one.
@@elizabethblackwell6242 I didn't make that up. Doctors in determining the possible trigger mechanism for each individual ask the question: what do you think could serve as an impetus to the beginning of the autoimmune process in you personally? Have you been under stress recently, have you received excessive solar irradiation, have you been tested for parasites, have you ever had such a thing in your relatives?
She’s got an adorable way of presenting really good information no one talks about, while also making it interesting & easily digestible (pun intended!) for the average person.
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. (:
You think this talk was good... Check out her book! I bought it STRAIGHT AFTER I watched the talk and it doesn't disappoint. Also, I enjoyed the fact she was humble enough that she didn't feel the need to promote it.
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.
This 14 minute video taught me more about my condition than any GP or doctor could in the last 13 years. 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.
Can you please share some of your findings? What foods do you recommend to help culture beneficial flora in your gut? Where can I go to learn more, as I assume her book does not give you actionable steps but more background science?
Dr. Enders is so cute when she talks about the gut. Clearly she has a passion for this subject and clearly she is a massive benefit for mankind! Her use of humor for the gut makes you want to learn! You go girl!!!
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.
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.
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.
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.
Hi Samantha. A year later, how are you? Did you try to see if cleaner eating would help you? I had very bad mood swings and autoimmune disease, turned out it was a sugar intolerance and all I ate non stop was high processed carbs... Anyways.. Hope you are well!
Samantha Rank ...Go you Samantha. You are so right. Yes our food is our medicine. Slowly but surely you can change your genes by what you feed yourself from here on in. How are you doing? I wish you the very best. ❤️🌺💃🏻🌺❤️ Keep studying and learning and the difficulties will keep melting away. We are all evolving together.
Some books you can read are Depression Free Naturally, The Plant Paradox and last but not least A Mind of Your Own by Psychiatrist Kelly Brogan. I hope this finds you well.
Good on you Samantha don't give up you're in the right track. Get into Kefir if you can. Brilliant stuff. 'Chron's babe' gives a 101 on how to make. Very easy and so health giving. Lots of love on your healing journey xx
I was damged by too many constant antibiotics as a child. My gut microbiome was destroyed. Interestingly I was suicidal at the age of eight years old until a few years ago when I changed my diet. I am also spiritual and feel God dircted me to change. Now I only eat organic, lots of raw fruits and veggies and try to stay away from too many refined oils and refined carbs, sugar and avoid alchohol as much as possible. I also don’t eat meat or gluten. My life has literally changed 180. I am no longer suicidal and am grateful for life. This doctor is the future. She is totally correct. Science one day will prove it. If you are suicidal...Please consider changing your diet. If you are spiritual, seek guidance through Yeshua fromThe Most High. Best to all~
Did not that there is such a beautiful face behind the powerful book i have been reading currently. I pictured someone to be in late 40s or 50s. This talk will inspire me even more to complete the book. 😁
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.
She is like a Eastern European Waverly Earp! Very informative and chipper way of sharing information that others may not want to discuss out of embarassment or shame
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 charming lady delivering fascinating information in an entertaining and funny way. Great talk, thanks for sharing Giulia. Your 'Gut' book is brilliant too.
It is amazing that I came across her book in my local library, a version that is written in Chinese. As a medical student, her book is amazing and so interestingly written. Highly recommended
She's amazing, there's a big connection between gut and brain, gut brain came first, I'm grateful she highlighted this subject. Her book is excellent 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.
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.
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.
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!
Yes, a few words beginning at 8:34 Edit : she even mentions the conscious/unconscious in her initial presentation in German (subtitles in FR/EN...) th-cam.com/video/MFsTSS7aZ5o/w-d-xo.html although it's still not about the intuitive gut feeling.
> "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!
Much to be learned, but how ? Except for some brain mapping, decades of IRM, brain scanning, brain cell physiology and biochemical knowledge haven't enlighted us much on how consciousness and ideas work... ?
And so it can then build an arsenal of defense against those bad germs/viruses to be able to assist us later in life when we are exposed to the bad stuff again. The body is an amazingly incredible machine who's only job is to recreate itself over and over and over, cell by cell, human by human, preserving and protecting each and every cell.
I really recommend her book, it's a fascinating description of how the gut works. I found it by chance on a bookstore a couple of years ago and loved it, very educational.
I know people are gonna say i wouldn’t say this if it were a man, but i would because I’m gay, but she is so beautiful and classy and adorable. I also think there is so much truth to what she said
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!
It was actually helpful! Especially the fact about having mood swinga in mornings is so relatable. Now i know why i feel bad after a long day and skipped meals. It's not just about hungry stomach; rather an angry stomach
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!
Giulia - Love your book, Love this talk - you’re giving us all a great gift, in so many ways: valuable, fresh information and valuable, fresh freedom to be more comfortable with ALL the uncomfortable parts of ourselves and to be curious and informed about those parts and how those parts fit and work together. So helpful and inspiring - Thank You!
I can track any nervousness or anxiety feelings directly to a session of diarrhea shortly thereafter, and no warning that it will be diarrhea, no cramping or bloating, etc. Just a straight run through of stuff in my gut.
In the beginning, We all got that funny giggly feeling that happens during biology class 😁thanks!.. Really well done! The IBS n depression link seems very real.. I know certain people..
Great video. Given that your gut microbiome impacts everything (as we explore in-depth in our gut health guide), regardless of whether your illness has any gut-related symptoms. from your immune system to your skin to your brain function to your digestion, and even your mood and mental health, it’s so important to eat foods that are beneficial for it. 🙏
This has been very helpful. I look forward to further research on the Gut and the bacteria which plays in its function. I know when I get constipated due to dehydration I get head aches, the connection is undeniable, so is the feeling of energy and vitality when I eat good wholesome foods against when I eat rubbish. Nutrition has been a voyage of discovery this year and I have learned a lot, but I would like to learn much more about the bacteria types and what they do. I've recently learned about soluble fibre called Inulin found in Bananas and Sweet potato do not affect my Ketosis as bacteria digest the simple sugars in this fibre and turn them into monounsaturated fats. Also, up until I started my diet I really did feel depressed, not suicidal but like the whole world was a weight around my neck, but now I feel so overwhelmingly optimistic and confident now I've cut out sugar, carbohydrates and lectin rich foods.Delightful presentation and look forward to any others Giulia will present in the future.
She also published a book called "Gut: The Inside Story of Our Body's Most Underrated Organ (Revised Edition)". It's at the same quality and was a pleasure to read.
Wow what a great talk! I loved her applying the philosophy of the gut, good and bad bacteria, to life in general (good and bad) Couldn't have asked for a better way to end a talk. L
The gut-brain axis is fascinating! Throwing this out: Could this axis have to do with the amount of violence (i.e. mass shootings) in the U.S. and the corresponding irresponsibility of American politicians? This is an honest question. The American diet in its most basic form is quite bad and unhealthy, and it is a society in which stress and pressure is constant. This leads me to ask if the gut is emotionally taking over, quite like the example Giulia gave of her colleague who committed suicide. She seems to imply that rash problems in the gut lead to rash responses.
Loved it!!! And when i started my intermittent fasting with 18/6 pattern or 20/4 pattern , i started again hearing my rumblings in the gut!! I guess bacterias were pile-uped before, and at the same time i know it, indeed, has nothing to do with feeling hunger and i love it :D
So tired of men only listening to intelligent women because they think they’re “hot.” This is an incredible talk. Stop saying you like the way she looks. It’s disrespectful af.
Gina and Biff, you should be happy, really. The way I see it there are two other stereotypes breaking here: 1. Pretty women are stupid. 2. If a woman does science she must be an ugly, introverted and boring one.
I get what you're saying Gina, but women are just as superficial as men. And the idea of watching a good looking man is more appealing than watching a Stephen Hawking. I agree it's in poor taste for men to acknowledge this in the comments, but it's honest st least. Can you say the same for yourself and your (fake?) outrage?
I hope will be more research about how gut affect mind. We have to understand better that the body affect the mind and not only vice versa. thank you to emphatise that.
Gulia thank you so much. I suffer from depression and if I must eat veg.and salads to control my mental health. Sugar literally makes me suicidal. My thoughts go whacky and depressive. Thank you!

She rabitted on about herself and not the science of gut biology. Also, auto-immune is genetic, not about cleanliness.

Charming gut and a charming speaker.
Good video.
Omg I thought it will be about our gut feeling. It wasn't. Was not disappointed tho.
Anpeo same here :(
Actually, it was. What we call gut feeling is a result of the nerve tissue between gut and brain that she talked about.
Yes, a few words beginning at 8:34
Edit : she even mentions the conscious/unconscious in her initial presentation in German (subtitles in FR/EN...) th-cam.com/video/MFsTSS7aZ5o/w-d-xo.html although it's still not about the intuitive gut feeling.

12:50 "Our immune system needs the bad (bacteria) too so it knows what it's looking out for." --That was a gem.

I know when I get constipated due to dehydration I get head aches, the connection is undeniable, so is the feeling of energy and vitality when I eat good wholesome foods against when I eat rubbish. Nutrition has been a voyage of discovery this year and I have learned a lot, but I would like to learn much more about the bacteria types and what they do. I've recently learned about soluble fibre called Inulin found in Bananas and Sweet potato do not affect my Ketosis as bacteria digest the simple sugars in this fibre and turn them into monounsaturated fats. Also, up until I started my diet I really did feel depressed, not suicidal but like the whole world was a weight around my neck, but now I feel so overwhelmingly optimistic and confident now I've cut out sugar, carbohydrates and lectin rich foods.Delightful presentation and look forward to any others Giulia will present in the future.
Fascinating! Such great info about our relationship between the two brains.
One of my fave ted talk ever. Brilliant!
Fantastic TED talk! Really informative. Great stuff
I finished her book yesterday and now I'm watching her TED talk
I love this talk. I've watch it twice just for the presentation
Wow, what a pleasure to listen to her!
She also published a book called "Gut: The Inside Story of Our Body's Most Underrated Organ (Revised Edition)". It's at the same quality and was a pleasure to read.
Doblo Fiber does it have any information regarding piles or IBS
@@javedhaware175 I've read the german version (she is german), and she did write over both in it. I'm sure, she will have it in other translations.
Wow what a great talk! I loved her applying the philosophy of the gut, good and bad bacteria, to life in general (good and bad) Couldn't have asked for a better way to end a talk. L
The gut-brain axis is fascinating! Throwing this out: Could this axis have to do with the amount of violence (i.e. mass shootings) in the U.S. and the corresponding irresponsibility of American politicians? This is an honest question. The American diet in its most basic form is quite bad and unhealthy, and it is a society in which stress and pressure is constant. This leads me to ask if the gut is emotionally taking over, quite like the example Giulia gave of her colleague who committed suicide. She seems to imply that rash problems in the gut lead to rash responses.
This ted talk left me with a good gut feeling
Loved it!!! And when i started my intermittent fasting with 18/6 pattern or 20/4 pattern , i started again hearing my rumblings in the gut!! I guess bacterias were pile-uped before, and at the same time i know it, indeed, has nothing to do with feeling hunger and i love it :D
Yes, intermittent fasting is an excellent choice to make you feel better physically and mentally
absolutely lovely explained
So tired of men only listening to intelligent women because they think they’re “hot.” This is an incredible talk. Stop saying you like the way she looks. It’s disrespectful af.
Gina and Biff, you should be happy, really. The way I see it there are two other stereotypes breaking here: 1. Pretty women are stupid. 2. If a woman does science she must be an ugly, introverted and boring one.
I find her very attractive.
I guess that makes me a bad person according to these ppl.
I get what you're saying Gina, but women are just as superficial as men. And the idea of watching a good looking man is more appealing than watching a Stephen Hawking. I agree it's in poor taste for men to acknowledge this in the comments, but it's honest st least. Can you say the same for yourself and your (fake?) outrage?
@@_Diana_SI don't think those stereotypes even exist in Germany.
She's hot
I hope will be more research about how gut affect mind. We have to understand better that the body affect the mind and not only vice versa. thank you to emphatise that.
Man! I love her attitude and sense of humour...
Gulia thank you so much. I suffer from depression and if I must eat veg.and salads to control my mental health. Sugar literally makes me suicidal. My thoughts go whacky and depressive. Thank you!
Excellent presentation.
She is so so beautiful
Same here, sugar and junk food increases my depression and anxiety...
