The discovery and exploration of the microbiome has been one of the most fascinating developments in the field of medical science in recent years. We’re learning more every day about just how important the community of bacteria living in our gut is for our body’s proper functioning. These little guys work so hard for us, digesting our food, balancing our body chemistry, and so much more -- but sadly, we rarely give them the recognition they deserve. We humans have a complicated relationship with our gut bacteria, one that’s often characterized more by disgust and fear than by love and appreciation. But as Marc David, founder of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, explains in this fascinating new video from #IPEtv, it’s time for us to have an attitude adjustment. If you’re ready to try being a little friendlier toward your friendly bacteria, tune in now, and see what they can do for you when you give them a little TLC!

Today’s Topic: The Psychology of Gut Bacteria
What does that even mean?
Well, when we begin to think psychologically – which is really a beautiful tool to have – we learn a tremendous amount about life. We deepen. We become infinitely more effective. We become smarter. We get wiser. We can see more. And we can navigate the world in a much more exciting way.
So, there is a psychology in how we relate to this thing called “gut bacteria.” And that psychology will powerfully inform our health and our well-being. To that end, it’s a great idea to examine the psychic forces that drive us in relation to anything that’s important in our lives.
So here’s the first thing to take note of:
There is an explosion of scientific research in the realm of gut ecology. This means the vast and intricate community of bacteria that live in our digestive tract. And by vast I mean that there are more bacteria in your gut that there are people on planet earth. The average person can have as much as a quarter pound of gut bacteria. We are literally a planet – and the bacteria inside our gut are all of our inhabitants. These gut bacteria, as we are learning more and more, have profound effects on the health and functioning of virtually every organ system and every metabolic process in the body.
As it turns out, we absolutely need these gut bacteria to reach even our base level of healthy functioning. They impact the immune system, digestion, nutrient processing, mood, energy, weight, bone density, heart health, and so much more. The scientific community is unbelievably excited about all the breakthrough research that’s happening in this realm.
