Well, again, it's about cutting down the quantities of that to tiny amounts and building it up so that you can build up those good microbes. So small portions of variety. And if you're really struggling, then you might want to add in things like that prebiotic mix I was talking about. If you then layer in the fermented foods as well, that's another way that you can stimulate

the good guys to improve. And we've seen those changes in our studies as well. And yeah, there's no magic bullet. Again, it's giving your gut a rest if you can, not late night snacking particularly, and avoiding antibiotics. Nothing we haven't talked about. The average American takes three or four times as many antibiotics as the average Scandinavian.

The amount of antibiotics used dropped dramatically during the pandemic. So, and, you know, People survived. So that's a real damaging factor to your good guys. So keep any course down to a minimum. Take fermented foods around the time you're taking it is another useful tip as well. Yeah, so I don't think there's anything specific.

that you need to do and everyone needs to find out what they can eat and avoid, you know, the worst highly processed foods. They are going to have really negative effects. So things like the emulsifiers, the artificial sweeteners, they can really impact your gut microbes in a bad way. So stick to whole foods if you possibly can.

Well, good quality fats. Okay. So remove bad โ so realize that all fats are not equal and that we shouldn't demonize fats and we certainly shouldn't be demonizing seed oils just because they're seed oils.

But, you know, extra virgin olive oil โ You know, massive Spanish studies for eight years show that people who have that regularly, you know, cooking with it, having it on salads, get less of all these kinds of diseases.
