A short YouTube clip (by Jeffrey Bland, PhD) arguing that the human microbiome is connected to many aspects of health — metabolic, psychiatric, and immune — and asserting that microbiome degradation is now recognized as a hallmark of aging. The speaker emphasizes that pattern recognition across disciplines anticipated this broader view of the microbiome's systemic role.

You saw stuff coming decades before anybody else saw it. And your associative mind just looks at the patterns and the data across multiple disciplines and sees these relationships that no one else is seeing. You're talking about the microbiome being connected to everything. Now, what's connected to metabolic health, to psychiatric health, to immune health, pretty much everything you can think of. And now it's mainstream. And now one of the hallmarks of aging is the degradation of the microbiome.
