Putting daily demands on your brain is the best way to keep it functioning at its highest level. By exercising the mind, we build cells that allow us to make new memories and strengthen old ones, averting dementia. Physical activities as simple as intentional walking or dancing can kickstart this process and keep brain decay at bay. It is when cells are unused that they begin to die and then stop being produced.

We can see through laboratory research that certain genes are more prone to activity than others. This means that certain people will find it easier to exercise. But this does not mean that it is not equally healthy for all humans to be in motion and movement. We can all benefit from going to the gym or exercising or though it may be more difficult some people.

Continuing our discussion about microbiomes, we now have found that while microbiomes are ‘bugs,’ they are actually key to the proper functioning of our bodies. In this episode, Dr. Power explains the process of a food molecule being stripped of its nutrients in the upper digestive tract before the bowel bugs get to it and start digesting it. We hear about how these vital processes have evolved in collaboration with healthy foods, and so eating processed junk might not be such a good idea.

The bugs we have in our bowels are becoming an increasing topic of scientific interest due to the huge role they play in health and diseases as well. These microbiomes make all kinds of important molecules that can be found in high concentrations in the blood. In this episode, Dr. Power gets into this fascinating topic, telling us about different tribes and species and how they are being identified, and how a new treatment era will be formed after we develop the hardware and software to map these complex organisms.

We have an incredible foreign organism inside us and it has remarkable benefits for both the brain and body. These hitchhikers are called microbiomes, and in this episode, Dr. Power marvels about how wonderous their existence and behavior is. He talks about how they survive, their behavior in tribes, and even their circadian rhythms. With their benefits to our health, it’s a good idea to feed them foods that will help them thrive!

The additives that are put into much of the food we eat are currently under suspicion as having the potential to cause obesity. We aren’t speaking about sugar either, but rather thousands of approved chemicals. Many animals who were fed food emulsifiers in lab tests began to develop obesity shortly afterward. In this episode, Dr. Power explains these experiments and brings up a few spanners in the works too, which cast a certain amount of doubt around the suspicions but don’t remove them completely at all.
