0:00.0	Never before if humans really even had the choice of things like a processed food product in the way that they are today.
0:05.5	Even in seemingly healthy beverages or foods, right?
0:08.3	If you think about the differences between cultures where kids are exposed to just peanuts, for example, versus peanut butter,
0:14.5	like standard American, like heavily creamed, emulsified peanut butter.
0:20.0	One theory about a lot of these sensitivities is that, well,
0:22.7	we give kids these processed food products from a very young age. If you induce an immune response,
0:28.0	what's the immune system going to attribute to it? Not necessarily the emulsifier, but it's going
0:31.7	to look at the peanut antigen, right? Over time, maybe not in everyone, but enough that you start
0:36.4	to see these things at the population level, you can start to see why allergies or sensitivities may be presenting themselves from something that could be as innocuous as these types of products. So I think that there's a lot that we don't know about things that we accept as healthy just because they don't have acute toxicity,

1:14.4	Thanks for having me.

1:29.4	Most people, when they think about the term gut health, they probably get it wrong.
1:34.7	Now, I don't always juxtapose a podcast like this, but to start us off, like, in your
1:39.8	world of gut and gut health, and really like the microbiome, is there an overarching thing that most
1:47.2	people unfortunately get wrong? Let's start the conversation there. A handful. I'll start with,
1:53.8	I'll start with probably the ones I think are the biggest misconceptions and slowly move down from
1:58.9	there. So the first is people think that the microbiome is because it's really individualized
2:06.2	between people, that everybody needs something individualized for them.
