Memorable Quotes:
“You absolutely have to go after the gut no matter what the central nervous system or brain-related issue is, because it is going to be a component of the problem.”
“You should never ignore the gut as you’re looking at improving your child’s development and as you’re looking at improving a child’s cognitive performance. It’s absolutely critical.”
“Microbes influence each other’s behaviors by their presence. So you could find a pathogen in the gut and go, holy cow, I have a pathogen. That’s bad. Well, that’s not necessarily bad. It depends on who else is there to control the pathogen and facilitate other functions out of it.”
“Most of your genetic elements come from the microbiome. We have 150 times more genes in our microbes than we do in our own cells. So we are essentially a very complex microbial structure.”
“It’s equally important for you to take care of yourself as much as your kids, because there is something called a microbiome cloud around your home. We share a biome within our household.”
