YouTube talk (creator: Mihail Pautov) summarizing research and observational claims about health benefits of fermented foods. The speaker cites a Stanford study reporting that five small portions per day of fermented foods reduced blood inflammation over three weeks, and mentions their own large survey of 10,000 people where three portions a day led 50% to report improved mood, energy and reduced hunger after two weeks. The speaker links reduced systemic inflammation from fermented foods to improved brain health and contrasts that with factors that raise inflammation (urban living, stress, processed/junk food).

Chapters

Really big study in Stanford showed that over three weeks, people having five portions a day of fermented food got a significant reduction in their blood inflammation levels. Five portions is kind of a lot. How can you eat five portions of fermented food? Well, these are all small. It's a small portion, so it would be kimchi, a bit of kraut, you know, a shot of kefir, a shot of kombucha. We know it works and it works better than just fibre alone. Cheese is also fermented food. Correct cheeses and even some of the processed cheeses still have microbes in them. Standard yogurt is still a fermented food. We did a big study of 10,000 people asking them to have three portions a day. After two weeks, 50% noted improvement in their mood and energy and hunger levels. So it's a challenge for your listeners to do that. The first thing that we notice is an improvement to your mood and your energy because it's reducing inflammation. And we now think that a lot of the problems of the brain are due to what's happening in the rest of the body. Yes, this immune system is being overstimulated from bad environments. Living in cities, stress, junk food, all this stuff is pushing it up, all these good foods are pushing it down.
