And we did a big study with Zoe of 10,000 citizen scientists who volunteered, who weren't on fermented foods, said, I'll try it for a couple of weeks, taking at least three portions. And over 50% of them got significant improvements in mood and energy and appetite within a week. So I think these are real effects that everyone can try. Then it's, you know, just thinking about cutting out those

highly processed foods, you know, and with, you know, how to spot them. Well, we've got a new score out. We're just about to publish and roll out in a beta of a free app that should help people. say what they are, but we're surrounded by them in the US. But not all processed foods are bad.

So I think we have to work out what the worst offenders are and what still the jury's out on, because you can't easily get rid of 60% of all food. It's just not practical. So it's that. And then finally, I think another tip is time-restricted eating, which I'm a big fan of. Changing when you eat your meals.

I'm not talking about reducing calories, but just compressing it so that you give your gut a rest overnight at least 14 hours is the optimum. But try and do over 12, and it doesn't matter if you don't do it every single day. What's important in all of these rules is that you do it 80% of the time, but you do it for... you can maintain it for years. And that's really what we're trying to build.

We did a huge study and about a third of people hated it. So anyone listening, just because some people get on with it doesn't mean everyone does. We're all very individual. And the key is to try it, try these things, but don't beat yourself up if it's not for you. There are lots of different approaches to health.

There are certain... I mean, getting for high numbers of microbes, but particularly those with a rich variety of them. So... Most people know, say, yogurts will have typically around three or four, and most of them are just artificially added by the manufacturer. And if they've got too much sugar in them, you could kill off the microbes so that they're not working.
