- As a Nutritionist and Acupuncturist, Ramos' high-heeled approach to health helps people feel sexy from the inside out and focuses on digestive imbalances, mental health and hormone-related issues. Her topic will be "The answer to your health is in your poop" and it is inspired by her work at at www.sexyfoodtherapy.com.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
one of the best Ted health talks iv seen. she's funny, she's articulate, shes to the point. as a chef with a fitness and nutrition obsession... I think she's bang on the money.
She's not funny.
Also a cause. Both stress and fiber affect digestion.
Indeed she is...
What are you whining about, Ego?
Jon; Sorry, but you are not funny... she is hilarious... that's how I know.
The topic of poop should not be a taboo at all. It is so crucial to our health. We need a lot of Ted speakers like Melissa 👍
It would have been important to mention, if your poop changes drastically, see a doctor. My poop turned black and was pencil thin for a month; then there was drops of blood. I had stage 4 rectal cancer. I now poop in a bag but am cancer free.
initially it seemed yucks but now when I gave a thought what you do is good !
I am sorry that had happened to you.
I am glad you are cancer free. my friend has stage 4 intestinal cancer. Chemo is not working and she is now on a non-FDA approved regime. I want her to live, but even the doctors say that for her it is just a matter of time. Breaks my heart. she is 43. She said she did not feel overwhelmingly bad and the few symptoms she had did not seem so strange. I lost another friend to cancer about 6 years ago. She too was not even 50. Cancer scares the crap out of me ( really, no pun intended) because it hits people really young. I expected my friends and I would have what I call "old people problems" I did not know we could get cut down in the prime of our lives. I am so glad you are okay. I wish you many, many more years of happiness and health.
That's common sense. Eastern docs study live bodies whereas the West studies cadavers. A little past the point. Saliva, blood and poop are indicators of what your body is doing.

Thank you for having the gumption to take on this taboo topic in a constructive way...I found it very informative, well presented, humorous, and from personal experience after 69 years, I think there's a lot of truth in it.
+P Prehn Thank you!
"There is a nutrient, though, for which 97% of Americans are deficient. Now that’s a problem nutrient. That’s something we really have to work on. Less than 3% of Americans get even the recommended minimum adequate intake of fiber. So the question isn’t “where do you get your protein?” but “where do you get your fiber?” We only get about 15 grams a day. The minimum daily requirement is 31.5 so we get less than half the minimum. If you break it down by age and gender, after studying the diets of 12,761 Americans, the percent of men between ages 14 and 50 getting the minimum adequate intake? Zero."

P Prehn I love talking about poop
They are doing research into digestive issues and eating disorders. Irregularity is horrible. It is one of the most annoying, frustrating and painful things. Great lecture.
God Bless Melissa Ramos for bravely telling us so much that we are trained to be ashamed of but really need to know.
Excellent TED Talk! Always amazes me to see how much emphasis this beautiful organization places on issues that's central to the human conundrum, often times I should say with competence and above all, courage! 11:29
This is the best digestion related TED talk out there.
She's amazing I love her work
This is pretty simplified. There are so many things that can affect our digestion, a main one being hormonal changes (Anyone ever been pregnant). In those cases changes in bowel movements is nothing to worry about.
The gut microbiome certainly plays a role in our health, but it's not THE answer to all of our health problems.
She is adorable.
DAMN!! She definitely knows her shit.
I *ALWAYS* look at my poo before I make it disappear into the under bowels of the plumbing, and have taken notice of the changes in them. I just had never been able to find good info on the various "states" of my poo. I knew they were health-related and meaningful. I am just glad that there is information out there now. :)
Thank you for speaking on this subject. Considering the short amount of time you had to speak, you gave good, concise information.
Great talk. I propose greeting someone by asking how their bowl movements went should replace the typical "How are you doing?" or, weather small talk. lol
omg ... She is on point with the brake up. and better 💩 movement. Going Through it.
You tell them sista' nutritionist!!! :) Poop is the gold standard for showing us our state of health!!!

about 1oz or a handful of nuts. Fruits or carbs with their whole water and fibers doesn't make you fat. Process fat like oil and process sugar like white sugar and flour, etc does."
I like to use Natural Calm for my magnesium supplement. Processed and animal fats are not healthy, but seeds, nuts, olives, avocados and coconut should be the fats we eat. These are what increases omega 3, whereas the processed and animal fats increase the omega 6 throwing the ratio out of balance leads to other health problems.
inventing solutions..".always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all."
this is so educational thank you so much!
This is a great lecture. Extremely important especially for Ladies.
k odu we all poop so what are you talking about???
I have had digestion trouble my whole life. I tried magnesium and still taking it. I started on a keto diet and taking Garden of Life Colon Care (probiotic & enzymes) and all is well now.
Keto diet actually promotes constipation.
@@naraendrareddy273 not at all. My son is on the ket and he goes 2-3 times a day.
@@naraendrareddy273 agree. It's basically the atkins diet, for those of us who remember that fad 🙄
In Indian sub continent medical practitioners ,who were called Hakeem and Vaidyas always questioned patients about their poop.That used to be very first question.Those systems believed,one has to have a good digestive system.
It all depend upon our eating habits.Healthy food leads to good health and good poop.

great info. loved it. so true.
I learned some things and I was highly entertained... great presentation, great public service... thanks! So, what I learned... I always thought super firm floaters were the BEST... little did I know medium density sinkers are really what you want to see... if you dare to look. ; )
Very informative
Met her a couple times! She's awesome!
+deeawnnah Heya!! **waving hand**
Melissa Ramos really love the confidence you spoke with. the intro was epic.
so informative loved it thank you so much
Awesome lecture!!
Very informative, thx a lot.
She's right! My best poop was squatting outdoors while hiking downhill the Bavarian Alps, after enjoying a great German meal!
good information! thank you.
.great thanks good talk . Blessings
so very true!!! and it causes suffering plain and simple
yes i drink 1 1/2 gallons of distilled water a day .when you start this you get a pressure headache that's a detox system and after 30 days or less you get more energy. make sure it's distilled water.
Praying mantises have two brains: one in their head for territory, one in the tail to run their body. That's why the female bites off his head when they mate. He isn't territorial anymore (so he won't eat her) but his body will still work.
I've always been a big believer of "going by your gut" now there's more reason to. Thanks!

Part of it is her; she's not an effective speaker.
Finding Pablo omg you absolute nerd
turn your shit up already ;pppp
did you like what I did there eh 💩
Sound issues is Ted's trademark... they should have a pro have a talk about sound.
U guys never herd of a volume control? Not that intelligent are we now ladies..
very educative
good talk.
Great. Now I can't stop thinking of her brown star. And "magnesium, a muscle relaxant."
Great poo presentation! Very informative.
Yes this talk is needed, and here its by women.
Thank you
really awesome and informative talk! I don't get what those downvotes are from
Go girl , thank you.
great speaker
Thanks Man.Indians mostly prefer squatting low rather than using commode
whenever I get intensely tensed suddenly I have to poop. now I know the reason the harmones shit
In many ways, this speech was excellent; however it did fall short in several other ways. I believe that it would have made her speech far more credible had she cited her sources. She had some interesting stats in the beginning of her speech and I would have loved to know where she got them from. For example, Ms. Ramos stated that over 70% of the population could not process dairy past infancy, where is she getting this stat from? It’s certainly not a fact that I know off hand, but I would be far more likely to believe such a high number had she had a credible source to back it up. Without it’s just another stat that could have been collected from who knows where in who knows what way. I also noticed that fiber wasn’t mentioned at all during this speech which I found to be a little odd as it seems to be pretty commonly known that one causal factor of constipation is a deficiency in fiber. However I do have to say that I am very pleased by the fact that she chose to speak on a topic that does not get enough attention. My friends often joke about my morning bowel movements, but the fact that they say they only have a bowel movement every two (sometimes even three) days is terrifying to me. What’s worse is that they don’t seem interesting in fixing it because they don’t see it as a problem! I also thought it was smart the way the topic was introduced as it commonly makes many people uncomfortable just thinking about it, by making a few jokes and a couple cracks at herself. If we had more talks about what makes up a healthy digestive system and why it is so vital, I think we would see a decrease in a lot of different issues. If it was more common to go to the doctor for being “irregular”, it would in turn increase the chances of catching any other comorbidities and disorders such as cancer or even depression.
they get about 20 minutes on ted and then the next speaker is up. no time for sources. but i m sure if you are interested she has a webpage or a book?! ;)
Google is your friend.
I thought the road to best poop is by having enough fiber. Strange that she did not meantion fiber, but the lecture is awesome!
Well thank you! Funny and direct....
Hello, I started drinking Green Smoothies about 2-3 months ago. It has helped my digestive system. My poop has been a greenish color. I heard you say it should be brown and smooth. I feel it depends on what you eat that creates the outcome. What are your thoughts?

emotions effect the entire body. must process and let go. to hold on requires brain energy. and what most do not talk scents as well as prepackaged and fast foods. no minerals in our soil- we are what we eat, think, breathe and drink.and for the bottled water, held in a container of poison. use glass not plastic or toxic metals. as you clean out, you may feel worse for a time, but you heals in reverse
Does this Lady have more lectures on this topic?
the. lady is right about the bowel movements
my morning poop was the best part of my day

Good information, take it from someone who is now suffering from diverticulitis.
Crymson Ranger check out Dr. Neil Bernard and Dr. McDougall you can reverse diverticulitis but you need to go high-carb plant-based whole foods in order to step out of the way and let your body heal itself.
here's a tip... very efficient way to regulate your poop... fast from food for 3 days(72 hours). drink only water. She mentioned how our bodies are made in a certain way that allows our body to function properly, hence the foot stool or "squat". So being humans its only in modern era that eating 5 times a day has become a norm. This 72 hours period allows our bodies to regulation and process all the nutrients we intake and toxins we need to release. so on the first day of fasting i suggest begin in the evening at sunset, so you sleep through half of the first day. Get past the first day, mind over matter. Drink water! the second day, be prepared to have a toilet nearby, it will be watery because the water you are drinking will cleanse your entire intestinal tract. your body will cleanse like never before. the third day will be less. Now you have a clean slate for you body, this is the best time to begin regulating you nutrient intake and build ur body up. For those of you not sold on evolution theory of hunter gatherers waiting to find their next meal when conditions are right, safety and availability of resources. Review any spiritual book you hold dear. I have done my own extensive study and encourage you to seek facts yourself when it comes to spiritual books. They all revolve around HUMAN NUTRITION. Foods that are beneficial, foods that are harmful"unclean", a period on going without food prior to ingesting very beneficial food. I have learned for Torah/Bible/ Quran believers, the self control of food is essential. The Quran states to believe in the Revelation of Jesus Christ and the books of moses no matter what in order to be muslim. Revelation teaching only those that will "survive" would have the mark of God, and in the Torah it explains what it means to receive the mark of God, keep the 10 days of passover. 3 days to prepare(fasting) then the specific food to eat for a week. this food consists of what every and any human nutrition expert would accept as "healthy" food to eat. Wheat(no yeast), bitter herbs, grape juice, and fish. for a few more details check this out... rideronthebee.com... i hope one day i would be invited for a tedtalk... wish you the best, Her presentation was very good and informative.. thank you. i hope she hears about this and gives it the old college clinical effort ;D
she forgot to explain that we need the healthy fats, most people after seeing this will feel better eating a big greasy burger thinking it is actually good fat, it is the oil of seeds, olives, coconuts and avocados that are the good fats.
I'm surprised she didn't mention coeliac's disease or crone's disease which can both have a serious effect on digestion and pooping.
HFCS, gmo sugar and beet sugar, gmo makes you fat. We had cane sugar as kids and none of us were fat.
could pooping be the cure to other health related issues besides cancer and diabetes? for example, could my constipation be the cause of my eczema or my hair falling out? and if so how would i find this out? and could not taking adequate dumps cause serious harm to my body?
+Armani garrison dermatological problems like eczema are diet related......ditto hair loss.......constipation is a symptom, like the other two, of poor diet.....less meat and dairy, more live, unprocessed fruits, vegetables and grains
+Armani garrison there isn't one mention of fiber on this video.......
Rosemary Anne Guy the speaker is only interested in talking about trendy villains like sugar, otherwise ignoring the SAD diet altogether.

Dude, some folks just "go" once or twice a week. It is normal for us. I feel great and have 0 gut issues.
I have the pellet poop a lot. In the past month I have increased my water and most days I reach a gallon. Why is my poop still pellets?
Taura Helms Are you getting enough fiber from fruit, veggies & legumes?
I do need to eat more beans. The fruits and veggies are not a problem.
So...reading a book while on the loo resting your arms on your legs is a good idea? Right, I will keep doing that...It is also very good to know that I am in good health!
I would love to talk to that women for many hours I have so many poop questions. Also if you get the chance to shit squatting it really does feel better as a western guy I don't like the idea but when I did drop a Duce squatting it not only felt like I had shat way more but it almost was involuntary as soon as you let go nature does the rest and it's awesome. Il make a bench for my toilet lol good Ted talk
"Fat does not make you fat, sugar make you fat". Really? That's a misleading statement. Whole food plant-based diets (see Dr.McDougall) are low fat (around 10% or so) but lead to great digestive health due to high fiber content.
Bogdan K exactly
I always flush it as soon as I go. She says "Take a good look at your poop".
I often wondered why dogs & cats always check theirs! check & smell, check & smell. omg
There are hundreds of clinical nutritional studies showing saturated fat makes you fat, get your facts straight, use science, not your opinion. That being said, refined sugar is definitely not a health food, but not the sole culprit in obesity. You are quite funny however, with great delivery.
Thank you great talk...Think I'll wear the heels in the bathroom!
I didn't hear finer mentioned once..................fiber is the number 1 dietary deficiency
+Rosemary Anne Guy I meant fiber
Too much fiber and water (happens when you are eating tons of veggies
and fruit) would cause loose poo or diarrhea. This is from my (past)
personal experience--I used to be *mostly* raw vegan.
I just poop and in fact I was watching this while I'm poop. haha. now I know what's the meaning of my poop and my stress level.... and it says that u have a healthy poop. 😀😀😀😀😄😄😄
yeah we already know that if you do not talk about some health issues then they remain un addressed. Thank you Einstein.
Heck! So true
Im in love
So to summarize...
The secret to perfect health is to simply... give a shit.
One of the pitfalls of having a slow internet connection..........taking double the time to surf through, well, shit like this
12:00 : finally she comes to the punchline "sugar, not fat, causes fat ( obesity )" again, no proof provided of this I guess the Darlene Cates of the world must be overdoing it on soft drinks ( eye roll).
Exactly what you would expect from a former advertising executive.........at least she's being honest about what her discussion was all about.........but should she be giving health advice for obese/sick people ?
***** If that is the case ( besides the fact she showed a lack of knowledge in this video) she should then retract some of this industry nonsense she peddles here...."sugar, not fat, causes obesity" ALSO she should cite her sources for such disinformation.....as if.
What she like every other person that knocks sugar doesn't say is that the sugar is either gmo sugar cane, sugar beets, HFCS and corn lots of gmo bt corn and soy in everything on the shelves, packaged, and in fast food. Sugar and gluten are looked at as the enemy, when it's gmo. The proof is all around you look at people in the grocery
stores, at restaurants, on the street people are getting bigger, and
diabetes is a growing epidemic. It's GMO food there is plenty of proof, it's in the end result.
Still her advice on poo, is still good.
Best comedy act I've seen in along long time(long, long turd)
omg this is rite up my street I'm like sherlock Holmes when it comes to investigating my excrement haa
Pellet poop, or as I've called it, pebble poop? How about some fiber!
Water.
Fiber to keep the water inside the gut
A high fat diet also causes floaters. Nothing to worry about.
So you're suggesting water, fat and squatting. Not vegetables? Fruits? Fiber?
Yeah, she's pushing pseudoscience.
I've been trying to remember that word for like over two month. Complete random to reply to your comment but thank you.
Freshly fermented dairy provides more than therapeutic does of good microbes. No need for expensive probiotic products.
humanyoda I'm vegan and I got good probiotics. All the beans and veggies feed those healthy bacteria
or just eat kimchi or make kombucha instead of drinking the secretions of another animal that needs to be constantly raped!

Depression and anxiety comes from the foods we eat
... stress comes from eating stress..stressed out animals... with stressed out bowels... to feed the invisibly enslaved.
Once, for two movements, my poo was blue. Well, it was blue/green, but it was more blue than green.
Food coloring can do it
"open up your brown star" will be incorporated into my sex life
What about us shift workers that can't get to do a poop.She is awesome
Mia Bulla it takes me less than 15 seconds to empty my bowels. Try a vegan diet like Dr. McDougal and Dr. Neil Bernard recommend.
Sugar don't make you fat, eating more calories than you burn in a day causes fat storage
Insulin is the hormone controlling fat deposition. Eat a lot of carbs and raise insulin production and fat deposition increases by definition. Eat too much fat and you poop most of it out. Anyone who has had to run to the restroom after eating a lot of fried, greasy foods should understand this.
gphx when humans eat too fat our cells get covered in the sticky mess and then the sugar can't get into the cells leading to type two diabetes overtime. Think of a glass filled with pearls and you dump oil over them completely coated them, that's what oil and high fat crap does inside our blood stream to our cells, causing the sugar to not be able to get inside and be used as fuel.
