0:00.0 | Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in. |
0:05.8 | Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years. |
0:11.0 | Yachtold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program. |
0:20.1 | To learn more about Yachtolt, visit yawcult.co. |
0:22.7 | .jp. That's Y-A-K-U-L-T.C-O.J-P. When it comes to a guide for your gut, count on Yacult. |
0:36.4 | For Scientific American Science quickly, I'm Rachel Feldman. |
0:40.6 | What do you think of when you hear the words, invasive plant? |
0:44.6 | According to some botanists, our mindset around invasives can do more harm than good. |
0:57.9 | Here to tell us more is Mason Heberling, |
1:02.4 | Associate curator of botany at Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh. |
1:05.8 | He's one of the experts behind the museum's new exhibition, |

1:30.2 | where they are, and who and what is responsible for that? That's a missing key. Oftentimes we talk |
1:36.2 | about invasive plants, invasive insects, invasive introduced, whatever, and we oftentimes focus on |
