Pred nekaj leti
00:14
I always had this thing happeningdogaja to me,
1
2598
2759
se mi je kar naprej nekaj dogajalo,
00:17
especiallyše posebej at familydružina gatheringssrečanja
2
5381
1760
še posebej na družinskih srečanjih,
00:19
like teasčaji with auntstete and unclesstrici
or something like this.
3
7165
3130
na čaju s tetami in strici ali kaj takega,
00:22
When people come up to you,
4
10319
1375
Ljudje so pristopili
00:23
and they askvprašajte you,
"So, what are you doing?"
5
11718
2797
in so me vprašali:
"No, s čim se ukvarjaš?"
00:27
And I would have
this magicalčarobno one-wordeno besedo replyodgovor,
6
15068
3891
Jaz pa sem v odgovor ponudila
tisto čudežno besedo,
00:30
whichki would make everybodyvsi happyvesel:
7
18983
2192
ki je vse osrečila:
00:33
"MedicineMedicine.
8
21199
1326
"Medicina.
00:34
I'm going to be a doctorzdravnik."
9
22549
1426
Zdravnica bom."
00:35
Very easyenostavno, that's it,
everybody'svsi so happyvesel and pleasedzadovoljen.
10
23999
3470
Zelo lahko, to je to
in vsi so srečni in zadovoljni.
00:39
And it could be so easyenostavno,
11
27493
1594
In lahko bi bilo lahko,
00:41
but this effectučinek really only laststraja
for 30 secondssekund with me,
12
29111
4567
a ta učinek pri meni
v resnici traja le 30 sekund,
00:45
because that's then the time
when one of them would askvprašajte,
13
33702
3279
ker potem pride čas,
ko eden od njih vpraša:
00:49
"So, in what areaobmočje of medicinezdravila?
14
37005
2395
"Katero področje medicine pa?
00:51
What specialtyposebnost do you want to go into?"
15
39424
2144
Kaj boš specializirala?"
00:54
And then I would have to striptrak down
in all honestypoštenost and just say,
16
42326
4346
In potem se moram razkriti in rečem:
00:58
"OK, so I'm fascinatedfasciniran with the colondebelo črevo.
17
46696
3470
"OK, noro me privlači črevesje.
01:02
It all startedzačel with the anusanus,
18
50190
1477
Vse se je začelo z anusom,
01:03
and now it's basicallyv bistvu
the wholeceloto intestinalčrevesne tracttrakt."
19
51691
2504
zdaj pa gre v bistvu
za cel prebavni trakt."
01:06
(LaughterSmeh)
20
54638
1472
(smeh)
01:08
And this would be the momenttrenutek
when the enthusiasmnavdušenje trickledpronicala,
21
56845
3298
To je trenutek, ko navdušenje popusti
01:12
and it would maybe alsotudi get,
like, awkwardlynerodno silenttiho in the roomsoba,
22
60167
4495
in v sobi morda nastane neprijetna tišina
01:16
and I would think this was terriblystrašno sadžalostno,
23
64686
2225
in pomislim, kako strašno žalostno je to,
01:18
because I do believe
our bowelsčrevesja are quitečisto charmingočarljiv.
24
66935
3397
ker dejansko verjamem, da so
naša prebavila precej očarljiva.
01:22
(LaughterSmeh)
25
70356
1150
(smeh)
01:23
And while we're in a time
where manyveliko people are thinkingrazmišljanje about
26
71980
3069
Smo v času, ko mnogi ljudje razmišljajo,
01:27

And sometimesvčasih it seemsZdi se to me

In včasih se mi zdi,
01:41
like we're all tryingposkušam

32

2366
nihče pa ne opazuje čarodeja,

01:52
And actuallydejansko,
36
100390
1395
In dejansko
01:54
there are reasonsrazlogov scienceznanost
dislikedne maram the gutčreva for a long time;
37
102841
3485
obstajajo razlogi, zakaj znanost
tako dolgo ni marala črevesja,
01:58
I have to say this.
38
106350
1151
to moram povedati.
01:59
So, it's complexkompleksno.
39
107525
1211
Kompleksno je.
02:00
There's a lot of surfacepovršina areaobmočje --
40
108760
1534
Veliko površine zavzema,
02:02
about 40 timeskrat the areaobmočje of our skinkoža.
41
110318
2204
približno 40-krat toliko kot koža.
02:04
Then, in suchtako a tighttesen pipecev,
42
112546
1579
Potem gre za ozko cev,
02:06
there are so manyveliko immuneimunski cellscelice
that are beingbiti trainedusposobljeni there.
43
114149
2923
v kateri so mnoge imunske celice,
ki se tam urijo.
02:09
We have 100 trilliontrilijon bacteriabakterije
doing all sortsvrste of things --
44
117096
3187
Imamo 100 bilijonov bakterij,
ki počnejo razne stvari -
02:12
producingproizvajajo little moleculesmolekule.
45
120307
1501
proizvajajo majhne molekule.
02:13
Then there's about 20 differentdrugačen hormoneshormoni,
46
121832
2299
Potem je tam okoli 20 različnih hormonov,
02:16
so we are on a very differentdrugačen levelravni
than our genitalsspolovila, for exampleprimer.
47
124155
3758
tako da smo na zelo različni stopnji
kot na primer naše genitalije.
02:19
And the nervousživčni systemsistem
of our gutčreva is so complexkompleksno
48
127937
3121
In živčni sistem našega
črevesja je tako kompleksen,
02:23
that when we cutcut out a piecekos,
49
131082
1728
da če ga delček izrežemo,
02:24
it's independentneodvisno enoughdovolj
that when we pokesuniti it,
50
132834
2327
je dovolj neodvisen, da ko ga zbodemo,
02:27
it mumblesThe Mumbles back at us, friendlyprijazno.
51
135185
2348
nam prijazno zamrmra.
02:29
(LaughterSmeh)
52
137557
2022
(smeh)
02:32
But at leastvsaj those reasonsrazlogov are alsotudi
the reasonsrazlogov why it's so fascinatingfascinantno
53
140078
4990
Vsaj to so razlogi, zakaj
je črevesje tako fascinantno
02:37
and importantpomembno.
54
145092
1368
in pomembno.
02:39
It tookvzel me threetri stepskorakov to love the gutčreva.
55
147295
3252
V treh korakih sem vzljubila črevesje.
02:42
So todaydanes, I invitepovabite you to followsledite me
on those threetri stepskorakov.
56
150571
3782
Zato vas danes vabim, da mi
sledite po teh treh korakih.
02:47
The very first was just looking at it
57
155096
2850
Prvi je bil samo gledanje
02:49
and askingsprašujem questionsvprašanja
like, "How does it work?"
58
157970
3040
in zastavljanje vprašanj,
na primer: "Kako deluje?"
02:53
and "Why does it have to look
so weirdčudno for that sometimesvčasih?"
59
161034
4174
in: "Zakaj mora včasih
tako čudno izgledati?"
02:57
And it actuallydejansko wasn'tni bilo me askingsprašujem
the first kindvrste of these questionsvprašanja,
60
165629
3838
V bistvu nisem jaz prva
spraševala takih vprašanj,
03:01
but my roommatesostanovalec.
61
169491
1281
ampak moj sostanovalec.
03:02
After one heavytežka night of partyingProslavljanje,
62
170796
2758
Po neki divji prekrokani noči
03:05
he cameprišel into our shared-roomdelijo sobo kitchenkuhinja,
63
173578
3145
je prišel v našo skupno kuhinjo
03:08
and he said, "GiuliaGiulia, you studyštudija medicinezdravila.
How does poopingpooping work?"
64
176747
5075
in rekel: "Giulia, ti študiraš medicino.
Kako deluje kakanje?"
03:13
(LaughterSmeh)
65
181846
1408
(smeh)
03:15
And I did studyštudija medicinezdravila
but I had no ideaideja,
66
183911
2381
Jaz sem študirala medicino,
a nisem imela pojma,
03:18
so I had to go up to my roomsoba
and look it up in differentdrugačen booksknjige.
67
186316
3200
zato sem šla gor v svojo sobo
in pobrskala po različnih knjigah.
03:21
And I foundnajdemo something interestingzanimivo,
I thought, at that time.
68
189540
2988
In našla sem nekaj, kar se mi je
takrat zdelo zanimivo.
03:24
So it turnszavrti out, we don't only have
this outerzunaj sphinctermišice zapiralke,
69
192552
3857
Kot kaže, nimamo le te zunanje
mišice zapiralke,
03:28
we alsotudi have an innernotranji sphinctermišice zapiralke musclemišice.
70
196433
1908
ampak tudi notranjo zapiralno mišico.
03:30
The outerzunaj sphinctermišice zapiralke we all know,
we can controlnadzor it,
71
198365
2393
Zunanjo zapiralko poznamo,
lahko jo nadzorujemo,
03:32
we know what's going on there;
72
200782
1527
vemo, kaj se tam dogaja.
03:34
the innernotranji one, we really don't.
73
202333
1592
Notranje pa ne poznamo.
03:35
So what happensse zgodi is,
74
203949
1196
Gre za to,
03:37
when there are leftoversostanke from digestionprebavo,
75
205169
2465
da se ostanke od prebave
03:39
they're beingbiti delivereddostavljeno
to the innernotranji one first.
76
207658
2494
dostavi najprej k notranji zapiralki.
03:42
This innernotranji one will openodprto in a reflexReflex
77
210176
2446
Ta notranja zapiralka se refleksno odpre
03:44
and let throughskozi a little bitbit for testingtestiranje.
78
212646
2130
in skozi spusti malo za test.
03:46
(LaughterSmeh)
79
214800
1653
(smeh)
03:48
So, there are sensorysenzorično cellscelice
80
216477
2205
Tam so senzorične celice,
03:50
that will analyzeanalizirati what has been delivereddostavljeno:
Is it gaseousplinastih or is it solidtrdna?
81
218706
5309
ki analizirajo, ali je to,
kar je dostavljeno, plinasto ali trdno.
03:56
And they will then sendpošlji
this informationinformacije up to our brainmožganov,
82
224039
3095
To informacijo pošljejo v možgane
03:59
and this is the momenttrenutek
when our brainmožganov knowsve,
83
227158
2160
in to je trenutek, ko možgani vedo:
04:01
"Oh, I have to go to the toiletWC."
84
229342
1997
"O, na stranišče moram."
04:03
(LaughterSmeh)
85
231363
1637
(smeh)
04:06
The brainmožganov will then do
what it's designedzasnovan to do
86
234452
2329
Možgani bodo naredili to,
za kar so ustvarjeni,
04:08
with its amazingneverjetno consciousnesszavest.
87
236805
1764
s svojo izjemno zavestjo.
04:10
It will mediateposredovanje with our surroundingsokolje,
88
238593
2769
Posredovali bodo v svojo okolico
04:13
and it will say something like,
89
241386
1477
in rekli nekaj takega:
04:14
"So, I checkedpreveri.
90
242887
1384
"Torej, preverili smo.
04:16
We are at this TEDxTEDx conferencekonferenca -- "
91
244295
2660
Smo na tej TEDx konferenci...

04:26
Maybe, if you're sittingsedi on the sidesstrani,

SinceOd our outerzunaj sphinctermišice zapiralke and the brainmožganov

Ker so naša zapiralka in možgani

they coordinatekoordinatni, cooperatesodelujejo,
102

04:50

106
279256
2880
ko boste recimo doma sedeli na kavču
in ne boste imeli nič boljšega za početi,
takrat imamo prosto pot.
04:54
we have nothing better to do,
107

04:55
we are freeprost to go.

Ljudje smo dejansko ena od redkih

05:06
in suchtako an advancednapredno and cleančisto way.
111
294069
2747
na tako napreden in čist način.
05:08
To be honestpošten, I had some newfoundnovega respectspoštovanje
112
296840
2585
Če sem poštena, sem imela
na novo odkrito spoštovanje
05:11
for that nicelepo, innernotranji sphinctermišice zapiralke dudestari --
113
299449
2531
do te prijetne notranje zapiralne bejbe,
05:14
not connectedpovezan to nervesživci
114
302004
1874
ki ni povezana z živci,
05:15
that carenego too much about
the outerzunaj worldsvet or the time --
115
303902
3217
ki jih preveč skrbi
za zunanji svet ali čas,
05:19
just caringskrbna about me for onceenkrat.
116
307143
2167
samo zame skrbi.
05:21
I thought that was nicelepo.
117
309776
1998
Mislila sem si, da je to lepo.
05:23
And I used to not be a great fanventilator
of publicjavnost restroomszahodi,
118
311798
3584
In včasih nisem bila velika
pristašinja javnih stranišč,
05:27
but now I can go anywherekjerkoli,
119
315406
1808
zdaj pa lahko grem kjer koli,
05:29
because I considerrazmislite it more
120
317238
1280
ker to bolj pretehtam,
05:30
when that innernotranji musclemišice putsstavi a suggestionpredlog
on my dailydnevno agendadnevni red.
121
318542
3812
ko mi ta notranja mišica pripelje
predlog na moj dnevni razpored.
05:34
(LaughterSmeh)
122
322378
1719
(smeh)
05:36
And alsotudi I learnednaučili
something elsedrugače, whichki was:
123
324121
2727
Naučila sem tudi nekaj drugega:
05:38
looking closelytesno at something
I mightmorda have shiedshied away from --
124
326872
4235
natančno opazovanje nečesa,
kar me je prej morda spravljajo v zadrego,
05:43
maybe the weirdestusoden partdel of myselfjaz --
125
331131
3017
morda mojega najbolj čudnega dela,
05:46
left me feelingobčutek more fearlessneustrašni,
126
334172
2224
me je napravilo bolj pogumno
05:48
and alsotudi appreciatingceni myselfjaz more.
127
336420
2224
in bolj se znam ceniti.
05:51
And I think this happensse zgodi a lot of timeskrat
128
339166
2017
Mislim, da se to pogosto zgodi,
05:53
when you look at the gutčreva, actuallydejansko.
129
341207
2014
ko gledamo črevesje.
05:55
Like those funnysmešno rumblingMare
noiseshrup that happense zgodi
130
343245
2747
Kot tisti smešni zvoki kruljenja,
ki se zgodijo,
05:58
when you're in a groupskupina of friendsprijatelji
131
346016
1633
ko smo v skupini prijateljev
05:59
or at the officeurad conferencekonferenca tablemizo,
132
347673
1726
ali v pisarni za konferenčno mizo
06:01
going, like, "MerrrMerrr, merrrmerrr..."
133
349423
2038
in dela: "Mrrrr, mrrr..."
06:04
This is not because we're hungrylačen.
134
352815
2006
Ne zato, ker smo lačni.
06:06
This is because our smallmajhna intestinečrevesja
is actuallydejansko a hugeogromno neatlepo freakčudak,
135
354845
3927
Zato, ker je tanko črevo
v bistvu mahnjeno na čistočo
06:10
and it takes the time in betweenmed digestionprebavo
to cleančisto everything up,
136
358796
4245
in med prebavami dolgo traja,
da se vse počisti,
06:15
resultingzaradi in those eightosem metersmetrov
of gutčreva -- really, sevensedem of them --
137
363065
3741
da je potem tistih osem metrov
črevesja - sedem, v bistvu -
06:18
beingbiti very cleančisto
and hardlytežko smellingvonjem like anything.
138
366830
3088
zelo čisti in skoraj ne smrdijo.
06:22
It will, to achievedoseči this,
createustvarite a strongmočno muscularmišične waveval
139
370494
3827
Da to doseže, bo ustvarilo
močan mišični val,
06:26
that movespremakne everything forwardnaprej
that's been leftoverostanke after digestionprebavo.
140
374345
4088
ki potiska naprej vse,
kar je ostalo od prebave.
06:30
This can sometimesvčasih createustvarite a soundzvok,
141
378457
1800
To lahko včasih ustvari zvok,
06:32
but doesn't necessarilynujno have to always.
142
380281
2512
a ne nujno vedno.
06:35
So what we're embarrassednerodno of
is really a signznak
143
383372
2642
To, česar se torej sramujemo, je znamenje,
06:38
of something keepingvzdrževanje
our insidesnotranjost fine and tidyurejeno.
144
386038
3171
da nekaj ohranja
našo notranjost lepo in čisto.
06:41
Or this weirdčudno, crookedkriva shapeobliko
of our stomachželodec --
145
389877
2926
Ali pa tista čudna, zvita oblika
našega želodca,
06:44
a bitbit Quasimodo-ishQuasimodo-ish.
146
392827
1609
podobna kot notredamski zvonar.
06:46
This actuallydejansko makesnaredi us be ablesposoben
to put pressurepritisk on our bellytrebuh
147
394865
3308
Zaradi te oblike lahko
izvajamo pritisk na želodec,
06:50
withoutbrez vomitingbruhanje,
148
398197
1171
ne da bi bruhali,
06:51
like when we're laughingsmeh
149
399392
1278
ko se recimo smejimo
06:52
and when we're doing sportsšport,
150
400694
1349
in ko se ukvarjamo s športi,
06:54
because the pressurepritisk will go up
and not so much sidewaysvstran.
151
402067
3316
ker gre pritisk gor in ne toliko na stran.
06:57
This alsotudi createsustvarja this airzrak bubblemehurček
152
405407
1885
To ustvari zračni mehurček,
06:59
that's usuallyobičajno always very visiblevidno
in X-raysX-žarki, for exampleprimer,
153
407316
4195
ki je ponavadi vedno viden na rentgenu
07:03
and can sometimesvčasih, with some people,
154
411535
1793
in lahko včasih pri nekaterih ljudeh
07:05
when it getsdobi too bigvelik,
155
413352
1841
postane prevelik
07:07
createustvarite discomfortnelagodje
or even some sensationsobčutki of painbolečina.
156
415217
3228
in ustvari nelagodje
ali celo občutek bolečine.
07:10
But for mostnajbolj of the people,
is just resultsrezultate
157
418469
2150
Pri večini ljudi gre pa za to,
07:12
that it's fardaleč easierlažje to burpPodrigivati
when you're layingpolaganje on your left sidestran
158
420643
3263
da je mnogo lažje rigniti,
ko ležijo na levi strani
07:15
insteadnamesto tega of your right.
159
423930
1520
namesto na desni.
07:18
And soonkmalu I movedpreselil a bitbit furthernadalje
160
426312
1922
Kmalu sem se pomaknila še naprej
07:20
and startedzačel to look at the wholeceloto pictureslika
of our bodytelo and healthzdravje.
161
428258
3334
in začela gledati celo sliko
našega telesa in zdravja.
07:23
This was actuallydejansko after I had heardslišal
162
431616
2390
To je bilo v bistvu po tem,
ko sem slišala,
07:26
that someonenekdo I knewvedel a little bitbit
had killedubil himselfsam.
163
434030
3435
da se je nekdo, ki sem
ga malo poznala, ubil.
07:29
It happenedse je zgodilo that I had been sittingsedi
nextNaslednji to that personoseba the day before,
164
437489
4709
Dan prej sem po naključju
sedela poleg tega človeka
07:34
and I smelledzavohal that he had very badslab breathsapo.
165
442222
3623
in zavohala, da ima zelo slab zadah.
07:37
And when I learnednaučili
of the suicidesamomor the nextNaslednji day,
166
445869
2245
Ko sem naslednjega dne
izvedela za samomor,
07:40
I thought: Could the gutčreva have
something to do with it?
167
448138
2915
sem pomislila: Bi lahko bilo
kaj narobe s črevesjem?
07:43
And I franticallybesen startedzačel searchingiskanje
if there were scientificznanstveni papersdokumenti
168
451077
3216
Divje sem začela iskati,
če obstajajo kaki znanstveni članki
07:46
on the connectionpovezavo of gutčreva and brainmožganov.
169
454317
2563
o povezavi med črevesjem in možgani.
07:48
And to my surprisepresenečenje, I foundnajdemo manyveliko.
170
456904
2358
Na moje presenečenje sem jih našla veliko.
07:51
It turnszavrti out it's maybe not as simplepreprosto
as we sometimesvčasih think.
171
459809
3314
Očitno to ni tako preprosto,
kot pogosto mislimo.
07:55
We tendnagibati se to think our brainmožganov
makesnaredi these commandsukazi
172
463147
2347
Mislimo, da naši možgani dajejo ukaze
07:57
and then sendspošilja them down
to the other organsorganov,
173
465518
2159
in jih potem pošljejo drugim organom,
07:59
and they all have to listen.
174
467701
1692
ki morajo ubogati.
08:01
But really, it's more that 10 percentodstotkov
of the nervesživci that connectpovezati brainmožganov and gutčreva
175
469417
5194
A v resnici je več kot 10 % živcev,
ki povezujejo možgane in črevesje
08:06
deliverdostavi informationinformacije
from the brainmožganov to the gutčreva.
176
474635
3215
in prenašajo informacije
od možganov do črevesja.
08:09
We know this, for exampleprimer,
in stressfulstresno situationssituacije,
177
477874
3131
Vemo, da na primer v stresnih situacijah,
08:13
when there are transmittersoddajniki from the brainmožganov
that are beingbiti sensedzaznati by our gutčreva,
178
481029
4019
ko naše črevesje občuti
možganske prenašalce,
08:17
so the gutčreva will try to lowernižje all the work,
179
485072
3570
črevesje poskuša zmanjšati delo
08:20
and not be workingdelo
and takingjemanje away bloodkri and energyenergija
180
488666
4518
in ne dela in ne jemlje krvi in energije,
08:25
to saveshranite energyenergija for problem-solvingreševanje problemov.
181
493208
2287
da prihrani energijo
za reševanje problemov.
08:27
This can go as fardaleč as nervousživčni vomitingbruhanje
or nervousživčni diarrheadriska
182
495519
3497
To se pokaže kot živčno bruhanje
ali živčna driska,
08:31
to get ridreši of foodhrano that it then
doesn't want to digestprebaviti.
183
499040
3115
da se telo znebi hrane,
ki je takrat noče prebavljati.
08:34
Maybe more interestinglyzanimivo,
184
502869
1260
Mogoče še bolj zanimivo,
08:36
90 percentodstotkov of the nervousživčni fibersvlakna
that connectpovezati gutčreva and brainmožganov
185
504153
3258
90 % živčnih vlaken, ki povezujejo
črevesje in možgane,
08:39
deliverdostavi informationinformacije
from our gutčreva to our brainmožganov.
186
507435
3226
prenaša informacije od našega
črevesja v možgane.
08:43
And when you think about it a little bitbit,
187
511296
1954
In ko malo pomislimo o tem,
08:45
it does make sensesmisel,
because our brainmožganov is very isolatedizolirani.
188
513274
3219
je to smiselno, ker so naši
možgani zelo izolirani.
08:48
It's in this bonykoščen skulllobanja
surroundedobdan by a thickdebel skinkoža,
189
516902
4345
So v tej koščeni lobanji,
obdani z debelo kožo,
08:53
and it needspotrebe informationinformacije
to put togetherskupaj a feelingobčutek
190
521271
2987
in potrebujejo informacije,
da vzpostavijo občutje:
08:56
of "How am I, as a wholeceloto bodytelo, doing?"
191
524282
3137
"Kako se počutim kot celo telo?"
08:59
And the gutčreva, actuallydejansko, is possiblymorda
the mostnajbolj importantpomembno advisorsvetovalec for the brainmožganov
192
527893
4426
In črevesje je verjetno
najpomembnejši svetovalec možganov,
09:04
because it's our largestnajvečji sensorysenzorično organorgan,
193
532343
2707
ker je naš največji senzorični organ,
09:07
collectingzbiranje informationinformacije not only
on the qualitykakovost of our nutrientshranila,
194
535074
3772
ki zbira informacije,
ne le o kvaliteti naših hranil,
09:10
but really alsotudi on how are so manyveliko
of our immuneimunski cellscelice doing,
195
538870
4092
ampak resnično tudi o tem, kako
so kaj naše številne imunske celice
09:14
or things like the hormoneshormoni
in our bloodkri that it can sensesmisel.
196
542986
2898
ali stvari, kot so hormoni
v naši krvi, ki jih lahko zazna.
09:17
And it can packagepaket this informationinformacije,
and sendpošlji it up to the brainmožganov.
197
545908
3082
Zbere te informacije
in jih pošlje gor v možgane.
09:21
It can, there, not reachdoseči areasobmočja
like visualvizualno cortexkorteks or wordbeseda formationsformacije --
198
549014
4745
Ne more doseči področij, kot je
vizualni korteks ali tvorba besed,
09:25
otherwisedrugače, when we digestprebaviti,
199
553783
1795
ker bi v tem primeru, ko prebavljamo,
09:27
we would see funnysmešno colorsbarve
or we would make funnysmešno noiseshrup -- no.
200
555602
4497
videli smešne barve ali pa bi
tvorili smešne zvoke. Ne.
09:32
But it can reachdoseči areasobmočja
for things like moralitymoralo,
201
560123
2867
Lahko pa doseže področja
za stvari, kot so moralnost,
09:35
fearstrah or emotionalčustveno processingobravnavati
202
563014
1859
strah ali čustveno procesiranje
09:36
or areasobmočja for self-awarenesssamozavedanja.
203
564897
1939
ali področja za samozavedanje.
09:39
So it does make sensesmisel
204
567377
1447
Zato je smiselno,
09:40
that when our bodytelo and our brainmožganov
are puttingdajanje togetherskupaj this feelingobčutek
205
568848
3648
da ko naše telo in možgani
vzpostavljajo občutje,
09:44
of, "How am I, as a wholeceloto bodytelo, doing?"
206
572520
2429
kako se počutim kot celo telo,
09:46
that the gutčreva has something
to contributeprispevati to this processproces.
207
574973
5106
da lahko črevesje k temu procesu
nekaj doprinese.
09:52
And it alsotudi makesnaredi sensesmisel
208
580103
1219
Zato je tudi smiselno,
09:53
that people who have conditionspogoji
like irritablerazdražljivega bowelčrevesja syndromesindroma
209
581346
3266
da ljudje, ki imajo bolezni,
kot je npr. razdražljivo črevesje
09:56
or inflammatoryvnetne bowelčrevesja diseasebolezen
210
584636
1836
ali kronična vnetna črevesna bolezen,
09:58
have a highervišje risktveganje of havingimeti
anxietyanksioznost or depressiondepresija.
211
586496
3352
imajo večje tveganje
za anksioznost in depresijo.
10:01
I think this is good informationinformacije to sharedeliti,
212
589872
2506
Mislim, da je to informacijo treba deliti,
10:04
because manyveliko people will think,
213
592402
1514
ker bodo mnogi mislili:
10:05
"I have this gutčreva thing, and maybe
I alsotudi have this mentalduševno healthzdravje thing."
214
593940
3385
"To črevesno stvar imam in mogoče
imam tudi to mentalno zadevo."
10:09
And maybe -- because scienceznanost is not
clearjasno on that right now --
215
597349
3293
Mogoče - ker si znanost v tem
trenutku še ni čisto na jasnem -
10:12
it's really just that the brainmožganov
is feelingobčutek sympathysimpatije with theirnjihovi gutčreva.
216
600666
3312
gre le za to, da so možgani
sočutni do črevesja.
10:17
This has yetše to growrastejo in evidencedokazov
untildo it can come to practicepraksa.
217
605117
4458
Potrebujemo še veliko dokazov,
da bomo lahko prešli v prakso.
10:21
But just knowingvedeti about
these kindsvrste of researchraziskave
218
609599
2591
A že to, da vemo, da
obstajajo take raziskave,
10:24
that's out there at the momenttrenutek
219
612214
2046
da so zunaj,
10:26
helpspomaga me in my dailydnevno life.
220
614284
2215
mi pomaga v vsakodnevnem življenju.
10:28
And it makesnaredi me think
differentlydrugače of my moodsrazpoloženja
221
616523
2320
In zato drugače mislim
o svojih razpoloženjih
10:30
and not externalizedoločeno obliko so much all the time.
222
618867
2812
in stvari več ne konkretiziram kar naprej.
10:33
I feel oftentimesvelikokrat duringmed the day
we are a brainmožganov and a screenzaslon,
223
621703
4269
Pogosto čez dan pomislim,
da smo možgani in zaslon
10:37
and we will tendnagibati se to look
for answersodgovore right there
224
625996
2827
in tam bomo poiskali odgovore
10:40
and maybe the work is stupidneumno
or our neighborsosed --
225
628847
2275
in mogoče se to delo zdi
vašemu sosedu neumno,
10:43
but really, moodsrazpoloženja can alsotudi
come from withinznotraj.
226
631146
2338
a res je, da razpoloženje
prihaja od znotraj.
10:45
And just knowingvedeti this helpedpomagal me,
227
633508
1837
Že samo to zavedanje mi je pomagalo,
10:47
for exampleprimer, when I sometimesvčasih
wakezbudi se up too earlyzgodaj,
228
635369
3230
ko se na primer prezgodaj zbudim
10:50
and I startZačni to worryskrbi and wandersprehaja
around with my thoughtsmisli.
229
638623
2711
in začnem skrbeti in razmišljati.
10:53
Then I think, "Stop.
What did I eatjesti yesterdayvčeraj?
230
641358
3031
Takrat si rečem:
"Nehaj. Kaj sem jedla včeraj?
10:56
Did I stressstres myselfjaz out too much?
231
644413
1701
Sem se preveč vznemirjala?
10:58
Did I eatjesti too latepozen or something?"
232
646138
2036
Sem jedla prepozno ali kaj?"
11:00
And then maybe get up
and make myselfjaz a teačaj,
233
648198
2239
In potem mogoče vstanem
in si napravim čaj,
11:02
something lightsvetloba to digestprebaviti.
234
650461
1526
nekaj lahko prebavljivega.
11:04
And as simplepreprosto as that soundszvoki,
235
652011
2075
In naj se sliši še tako preprosto,
11:06
I think it's been
surprisinglypresenetljivo good for me.
236
654110
3060
mislim, da je to zame presenetljivo dobro.
11:10
StepKorak threetri tookvzel me furthernadalje
away from our bodytelo,
237
658469
4874
Korak tri me je peljal
proč od našega telesa
11:15
and to really understandingrazumevanje
bacteriabakterije differentlydrugače.
238
663367
3101
in k resničnemu razumevanju bakterij.
11:18
The researchraziskave we have todaydanes
is creatingustvarjanje a newnovo definitionopredelitev
239
666985
3248
Raziskave, ki jih danes imamo,
ustvarjajo novo definicijo,
11:22
of what realresnično cleanlinessČistoča is.
240
670257
2223
kaj je resnična čistoča.
11:25
And it's not the hygienehigiena hypothesishipoteza --
241
673366
3533
Ne gre za hipotezo higiene -
11:28
I think manyveliko maybe know this.
242
676923
1381
mislim, da mnogi to poznajo.
11:30
So it statesdržave that when you have
too little microbesmikrobi in your environmentokolje
243
678328
3542
Pravi, da ko imaš premalo
mikrobov v svojem okolju,
11:33
because you cleančisto all the time,
244
681894
1601
ker kar naprej čistiš,
11:35
that's not really a good thing,
245
683519
1602
to ni dobro,
11:37
because people get more allergiesalergije
or autoimmuneAvtoimunske diseasesbolezni then.
246
685145
3674
ker ljudje potem dobijo več
alergij in avtoimunskih bolezni.
11:40
So I knewvedel this hypothesishipoteza,
247
688843
2218
To hipotezo sem poznala,
mislila sem, da se ne bom veliko naučila,
11:43
and I thought I wouldn'tne bi learnučiti se so much
248
691085
1853
11:44
from looking at cleanlinessČistoča in the gutčreva.
249
692962
2464
če bom gledala čistočo črevesja.
11:47
But I was wrongnarobe.
250

realresnično cleanlinessČistoča is not about
killingubijanje off bacteriabakterije right away.

pri resnični čistoči ne gre za
takojšnje uničenje vseh bakterij.
11:55
RealPravi cleanlinessČistoča is a bitbit differentdrugačen.

Resnična čistoča je malo drugačna.
11:57
When we look at the factsdejstva,

12:04
they don't have the genesgeni to do so.

Mnoge nam dejansko pomagajo
12:08
and scientistsznanstveniki at the momenttrenutek
are looking into things like:
258
716961
3237
in znanstveniki trenutno proučujejo
stvari, kot so:
12:12
Do some bacteriabakterije help us cleančisto the gutčreva?
259
720222
2621
nam nekatere bakterije pomagajo
čistiti črevesje?
12:14
Do they help us digestprebaviti?
260

Nam pomagajo prebavljati?
12:16
Do they make us put on weighttežo

Se zaradi njih zredimo ali smo vitki,
12:18
althoughčeprav we're eatingjedo lots?

Are othersdrugi makingizdelavo us feel more courageouspogumno

263

Nam druge pomagajo, da se počutimo

12:25
So you see, there are more questionsvprašanja
when it comesprihaja to cleanlinessČistoča.
264
733398
3995
Vidite torej, da obstaja mnogo
vprašanj glede čistoče.
12:30
And, actuallydejansko, the thing is,
it's about a healthyzdravo balanceravnovesje, I think.
265
738171
3274
In stvar je, da gre
za zdravo ravnovesje, se mi zdi.
12:33
You can't avoidizogibajte se the badslab all the time.
266
741469
2413
Ves čas se ne moremo izogibati slabemu.
12:35
This is simplypreprosto not possiblemogoče;
267
743906
1733
To preprosto ni mogoče,
12:37
there's always something badslab around.
268
745663
1969
ker je okoli nas vedno kaj slabega.
12:40
So what really the wholeceloto dealobravnava is
when you look at a cleančisto gutčreva,
269
748094
4675
Ko gledate na čisto črevesje,
gre v bistvu za to,
12:44
it's about havingimeti good bacteriabakterije,
enoughdovolj of them,
270
752793
3822
da imate dovolj dobrih bakterij
12:48
and then some badslab.
271
756639
1235
in nekaj slabih.
12:50
Our immuneimunski systemsistem needspotrebe the badslab, too,
272
758444
1888
Imunski sistem potrebuje tudi slabe,
12:52
so it knowsve what it's looking out for.
273
760356
2538
da ve, za kaj mora poskrbeti.
12:54
So I startedzačel havingimeti this differentdrugačen
perspectiveperspektive on cleanlinessČistoča
274
762918
3435
Zato sem začela drugače gledati na čistočo
12:58
and a fewmalo weekstednih laterpozneje,
275
766377
1386
in nekaj tednov kasneje
12:59
I heldpotekala a talk at my universityuniverza,
276
767787
2132
sem imela na svoji univerzi predavanje
13:01
and I madeizdelane a mistakenapaka by 1,000.
277
769943
2096
in sem se zmotila za 1000.
13:04
And I wentšla home and I realizedrealiziran
in that momenttrenutek,
278
772063
2434
Šla sem domov in se
v tistem trenutku zavedla:
13:06
I was like, "AhAh! I madeizdelane
a mistakenapaka by 1,000.
279
774521
3015
"Ah, zmotila sem se za 1000.
13:09
Oh God, that's so much,
and that's so embarrassingneprijetno."
280
777560
3083
O Bog, to je tako veliko,
to je tako sramotno."
13:12
And I startedzačel to think about this,
I was like, "UghUh!!"
281
780667
2767
In začela sem o tem razmišljati
in sem si mislila: "Oh."
13:15
And after a while I said,
282
783458
1191
Čez čas sem rekla:
13:16
"OK, I madeizdelane this one mistakenapaka,
283
784673
1830
"Prav, naredila sem to eno napako,
13:18
but then I alsotudi told so manyveliko
good and right and helpfulpomoč things,
284
786527
4084
a povedala sem še toliko
dobrih in koristnih reči,
13:22
so I think it's OK, you know?
285
790635
1471
zato mislim, da je vse v redu.
13:24
It's a cleančisto thing."
286
792130
1370
To je čista stvar."
13:25
And then I was like, "Oh, wait.
287
793524
2428
Potem pa sem si rekla: "Počakaj.
13:27
Maybe I tookvzel my perspectiveperspektive
on cleanlinessČistoča furthernadalje."
288
795976
3166
Mogoče sem svoj pogled
na čistočo peljala malo dlje."
13:31
And it's my theoryteorija at the momenttrenutek
that maybe we all do.
289
799166
2682
Moja teorija je v trenutno ta,
da mogoče vsi to počnemo.
13:33
Take it a bitbit furthernadalje than just
cleaningčiščenje our livingživeti roomsoba,
290
801872
2770
Stvari peljemo dlje,
kot da le čistimo svojo dnevno sobo,
13:36
where maybe we make it
to sortRazvrsti like a life hygienehigiena.
291
804666
3106
mogoče iz tega naredimo
življenjsko higieno.
13:39
KnowingPoznavanje that this is about

Zavedanje, da gre za spodbujanje dobrega
