My friend is gone. I will miss him. He was a good friend. This is way I've concerns. Hi, Jeff Canada. I am the Nicarboni. Hello, concerned citizens. We focus a lot on sort of

0:28.5

the new frontier of health here on the show. Yeah, well excited. I want to live forever. That's my, I got to be healthy if I do that. Yeah, I want to just be brain and jar connected to network forever. Yeah, and I understand that that's not a popular opinion with most of society right now. And we're really going to have to wait a long time for everybody to come around to that. And what I haven't come to terms with is the fact that I'll probably be dead before we come around to that. And I reflect. I'm

0:58.5

I refuse. I refuse. We've talked about this before somewhere. Someone is going to be the last person to die before everybody becomes immortal. Yeah, and you don't want to be the last person to die. No, I mean, listen, everyone will remember you probably. Yeah, last, the way I want to be remembered. I want to be remembered because I keep, I keep I'm still here. Yeah, I want to be remembered because you walk by me on the street every day forever.

1:28.2

And you go, I know that guy. I keep coming around. Yeah, that guy doesn't die. That guy don't die. Why would he die? We don't do that anymore.

1:38.1

But we, you know, above and beyond that, we talk about some of the smaller advances in health. We've been talking about a lot of stuff that's just on the horizon, things that are just a few years away.

1:48.6

And sometimes those things are a little strange Jeff. We like strange here though. We do like strange a few years ago, we talked about something Jeff. I don't know if you remember this, but there are people that have

1:58.2

You know, things like things like all sort of colitis or things like Crohn's disease or even things like they they may get a see diff infection

2:10.2

from another medical procedure and they basically got some very intense and very serious tummy trubs.

2:17.2

Right. Yes.

2:19.2

Sometimes chronic, sometimes lifelong, sometimes deadly tummy trubs. It's a big deal.

2:25.2

Yes. But we've been making big advances in gut health. Yeah. We've, we talked a lot about the microbiome and then you know, as, as we figured out that the microbiome is connected to the, to these chronic tummy trubs, we found out that the microbiome is connected to so many different things. This is the, of course, the many, many forms of bacteria, millions of forms of bacteria that live in your gut and throughout your body that work in harmony.

2:53.2

With the rest of your body to sort of keep things normal and keep things regular. We found out that that's connected to everything from, from your tummy trubs to mental health in a lot of ways.

3:05.2

Yeah. It's actually shocking how much seems to be, you know, they say your gut is your second brain, but some people are suggesting it might be your first brain that really defines a lot of even how you think is that microbiome and that the cohesion that's happening in your gut.

3:22.2

Are we getting to poop injections? Is that what we're headed? Now, Jeff, we did talk a little bit about poop injections. This is called a fecal transplant. We talked about it a few years ago. And the idea is, if you're having tummy trubs, chronic potentially lethal tummy trubs, or in some cases, even intense emotional issues connected to tummy trubs, we were testing. And by we, I mean, literally me, I was doing this to people.

3:50.2

You take healthy poop from a healthy from somebody without tummy trubs, and you put it up, probably without them knowing without them knowing, which is how I do it because I don't have time to wait on, you know, approvals and boards and, you know, they laughed at me at the university, but soon I'll be the one laughing, Jeff.

4:08.2

Yeah. There was a lot of laughter and a lot of that guy stinks.

4:12.2

Yeah. So we take healthy feces, and we preferably from somebody close to you a relative somebody that lives with you, you know, easier access is easier.

4:24.2

Yeah, yeah, yeah, because I can get into their rooms when they're sleeping, but also because because of genetic similarity and living in the same environment very close to one another, you come in contact with the same bacteria all the time.

4:37.2

So your microbiome is likely to be very similar than we've even found that people that have pets, their microbiome is very similar to their pets microbiome in a lot of ways.

4:48.2

This is something they don't tell you about when when you're thinking about getting married, you know, this is not something that's in your in your vows usually that I'm going to start sharing microbiome with you, but I think there's going to be a day when we start back during that into our, our

5:06.2

mate choices, you know, let me tell you something Jeff, you're a you're a tall good looking square jawed gentile.

5:17.2

So that's not anything you've been thinking of when you look for a mate.
