Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

0:22.3

Today we're going to talk about the necessity of germs.

0:26.0

Now humans have co-evolved with these microbes for a very long time. These microbes have been on

0:33.1

this planet for a lot longer than humans, and so we have a beneficial relationship with these

0:37.7

microbes. They give us certain things, we give them a home to live in. So let's talk a little bit

0:42.6

more about this topic. There's something called the hygiene theory, which I think is not a theory,

0:47.0

it's actually a truth, because when you expose it, child, for example, to a sterile environment,

which is pretty much a blank slate. It's neutral when you're born. You have to develop it and it

1:36.7

takes time. So the acquired immune system is something that you acquire by exposing yourself

1:42.9

to germs, microbes. So our bodies develop antibodies and many other immune cells to then create

1:50.0

immunity. And I think the medical profession, a lot of people are ignoring these vital importance

1:56.7

of strengthening your immune system versus trying to boost your immune system in other ways.

2:01.5

You have a hundred trillion microbes growing inside your body, as well as on the surface of your

body. In other words, your skin is an important immune gland. So for example, if you try to
