Gut Expert: Eating these 3 foods could improve your mental health | Tim Spector: Full Interview

He is wrong about eating dairy. 70% of the world population is lactose intolerant. Recommending dairy which will make 7 out of 10 sick is bad advice. Most of the other advice is good.

I hate this kind of titles. Why are viewers always regarded as simpletons…

big think is better than this

Rubbish! I have hyperoxaluria, which is sensitivity to oxalates, so eating 30 plants could be extremely harmful to me. I did incredible damage to my body by eating vegan and vegetarian for many years. I highly recommend the book Toxic Superfoods as an introduction and general knowledge, then do your own research on the topic. Also, more evidence-based testimony is that a couple years ago, I had high TSH and hypothyroid, and the doctor wanted me to take medication. I read research that there is a correlation between oxalates and thyroid disease and told her I thought I was on the right track. A couple weeks ago, I had updated labs done, and my TSH is now normal!! This is thanks to a low oxalate diet and calcium citrate with meals as calcium binds to oxalates. Oxalate overload is an epidemic in the US, and probably the world. People should eat for their biotype, and not pay mind to the many overgeneralizations such as this, IMHO.

Why those do those doctors never seem to be in superior shape themselves?

I hope Tim isnt going to sell anything in this video, he is hard to listen to compared to others in this field

What are the 3 foods? I’m not going to watch this entire thing

I am patient of autoimmune disease , this video helped me lot to understand the details .

All of these ideas on how we should feed our gut. Why is no one talking about all the pollution and chemicals our bodies are exposed to our entire lives. Corporations are killing our gut bacteria for profits. That's what's really going on.

Finite Nature vs Infinite Nature:

Everything naturally occurring is Nature, which includes plants, microorganisms, humans (all lifeforms), atoms, energy, stars, planets, black holes, cancer, AIDS, space, Dreams, and Consciousness.

(Why would Nature be finite?)

Without Infinity, there is only infinite regress; E.g. String Theory: what caused the strings, where did the strings come from, what came before the strings; E.g. The Big Bang: what caused the initial singularity, what came before the initial singularity, etc. Considering "Nothingness" is an obvious fallacy, there must always be Something.

Prove Nothingness, while keeping in mind: Nothingness can only be "proven" in the absence of an observer. If described (observed) by an observer, Nothing becomes something (think hard about this). This would also connote a field of infinite Nothingness randomly formed a spec (our Universe) of somethingness – which is nonsensical.

Provisional science cannot claim authority over reality, at best it can only provide fuzzy hints. Science is a game of "let’s pretend," played with symbols and sensors. Its power lies in utility, not truth. To mistake physics/maths for reality is to worship the finger pointing at the moon.

Our cosmological sciences are akin to a microorganism residing within a human (on Earth), actively exploring the Andromeda galaxy. Our nearly insignificant signals bouncing off of fragments of Infinity – the margins for error are "astronomical".

"So far as the theories of mathematics are about reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality" – Albert Einstein

Why would Nature form brains/minds to exhibit consciousness other than to experience reality; considering experiencing reality is the objective of consciousness?

It connotes conscious intent, via consciousness (Nature).

Consciousness/Experiences:

Disneyland (Reality) – Patrons (Consciousness) = Nothingness = Fallacy.

Instead, we Patrons (Nature) are the architects of our own theater called Reality.

All life exists for the sake of experiences (regardless of good/bad).

A thought experiment:

On a plain sheet of paper, draw a single dot (.) in the very center.

The paper represents infinite space. Everything beyond the boundaries of the sheet also represents endless (empty) space.

The dot represents 'The Big Bang'.
Everything humanity is aware of – exists within the dot (our currently expanding universe).

If the observers of this singular dot, zoom far enough away – the dot will cease to exist. The dot will be extinguished through expansion/evaporation – wholly consumed by an infinite void (due to cosmic scales/distances). This would prohibit existence from 'being'. (Yet here we are).

Furthermore this would connote The Big Bang occurred at random, within an infinite void of nothingness – suggesting 'somethingness from nothingness' – which is a fallacy.

Without considering potential forces being exerted upon our reality/universe (from beyond the boundaries of our observations) – is an incomplete interpretation.

Clearly the remainder of the sheet of paper cannot be an infinite void.

The expansion of our universe is accelerating. If our cosmic expansion were occurring within a void, our reality would have concluded before it began (poof). (Yet here we are).

If we are a facet of Infinity – we are Infinity. Along with everything being intimated.

Instead imagine the sheet and everything beyond – riddled with infinite dots.

Every universe is a particle, every particle is a universe.

(Infinity is self-propagating).

Thus Infinity is a superdeterministic preexisting condition.

Infinity being absolute simultaneity.

Expresses infinite probabilities – Deterministically.

Every reality.

Every life.

Is an intended narrative.

(The largest cannot exist without the smallest)

Although our universe is finite (as evidenced by expansion).

Infinity exists at a fixed maximal size, without borders/boundaries: Infinity is forever in every sense, within which infinite universes/realities are housed – each a distinct experience.

(Infinity > Multi)

Infinity accounts for every variation, including variations in thoughts.

Reality is an infinite fractal consciousness; whereby all realities, every possibility, along with every imaginable and unimaginable thing, is a fragment of said consciousness – which we refer to as Nature.

We are Nature.

We are "God" (figurative); fragmented into infinite experiences.

An Infinity without borders or constraints; with infinite energy.

We are all the same entity; existing for the sake of experiences.

Death Demystified'.

In order to fully grasp the nature of Death; it is important that we understand Life.

Reality is an infinite fractal consciousness; whereby all realities, every possibility, along with every imaginable and unimaginable thing, is a fragment of said consciousness – which we refer to as Nature.

We are Nature.

We are "God" (figurative); fragmented into infinite experiences.

An Infinity without borders or constraints; with infinite energy…

We are all the same entity; existing for the sake of experiences.

Scenario:

Individual A is hit by a car, witnesses B, C, and D are present.

With the following occurring in simultaneity…

Individual A(1) leaps up, unharmed – (it's a miracle), witnesses B(1), C(1), and D(1) disperse.

Individual A(1) carries on with their life… (to be continued).

Individual A(2) dies on impact, witnesses B(2), C(2), and D(2) recant the details.

With both scenarios, factor the ensuing ramifications on everyone/everything involved, along with the subsequent entanglements (Butterfly Effect).

Through each Death endured, Individual A(1-♾) experiences (gradually increasing) fantastic shifts in their personal narrative. Eventually leading to divergent experiences (kidnapped by aliens). These fragmented experiences overlap with all local (Earth) conscious narratives.

Once an extreme apex has been achieved, reality resets for individual A, a randomized narrative starts anew… Corporeal Birth (simplification).

Why do some individuals miraculously survive extreme situations?

Why are some humans living caricatures?

The Meaning of Life:

Imagine an endless clear glass tube (representative of Time), within which exists a diorama of life on Earth. The left most section depicting our earliest single-celled ancestors (3.5 billion years ago), leading through our present and into a future yet to be experienced (farthest right).

Notice the tube (Time) and the diorama of life displayed within – exists Simultaneously; Past, Present, and Future all occurring concurrently. Every life form within the history of existence, an interconnected narrative: as 'Futures' cannot exist without Past events.

Similarly to reading a book, we can only examine moments of our lives which had already transpired (Past), those pages yet read (Future) remain uncertain until experienced (no cosmic spoilers). We can only surmise possible outcomes based on prior events (pages read), although never guaranteeing accuracy of predicting Future events.

Without the existence of Conscious experiences, there would be Nothingness. Life experiences, Experiences, simply for the sake of experiencing – which is why Life chronically craves varieties of stimuli.

Our corporeal forms are assigned avatars, which allows Consciousness to experience material reality.

Works of fiction (books, cinema, video games, etc.), allows individuals to experience an extended Consciousness, whereby our emotional states carry-over into fictional narratives (frustration, anger, joy, elation…). All of this, despite understanding such events are merely virtual (occurring within said individuals imaginations).

Books are experienced in chronological order instead of a randomized order; in order to maintain a cohesive narrative flow. Within fictional works, every character arc has their entire fate sealed; from inception to demise – luck/chance has already been decided throughout.

This is also why every Life is experienced through a predetermined progression. Reality is a sensory experience, simply for the sake of experiencing a physical Life.

Regarding Panpsychism:

Have you ever dreamed a contemporary dream, one within a major city, buzzing with people? Although the entire dream is constructed from your consciousness, not all objects within are imbued with conscious experiences – only the observable lifeforms are. The buildings, streets, signs, cars, and all inanimate things are purely decorative. Inanimate objects (minerals) provided by reality are not conscious. People attend plays to watch living artists perform, the stage and props are not the stars.

Time:

A seemingly endless cadence of day/night cycles, conducted over the course of the Human epoch. Untold billions of Homo Sapiens Sapiens; generation after generation – conditioned by Nature to accept finality. The circadian rhythm, an innate mechanism, a constant reminder; consciousness an ephemeral experience, fleeting with every moment, through every exhalation. Selene a blanket of night, engulfing all into her dreamy embrace – the analog of Stella, raining rays of warmth, nourishing existence into being; beckoning the vivacity of life to stir yet again.

Day into night, night into day – a rhythm to remind us that none of Natures constructs are created without an expiry. Whether measured by 6.62607004 × 10-34 m2 kg / s; or by a Supereon, we are cascading energies, propagating our collective experiences – vainly attempting to elicit a sense of ‘self’ in hopes of staving off oblivion. Not realizing that the only allowable paradox to exist, is existence; a lucid dream conducted by the everlasting artistry of Gaia.

Time.

How do we know the 'good' bugs like 'good' foods and not some assortment of 'bad' foods? How do we know that 'bad' bugs don't love 'good' food?

1. Exercise
2. Eat a large variety of plants (spices count, smoothies help)
3. Breathe 10 minutes a day to stimulate the vagus nerve (4 seconds in through nose, 6 seconds out through pursed lips)
