00:14

hi there i'm tim spector professor of

00:17

epidemiology an expert in gut health

00:19

nutrition and co-founder of the company

00:22

zoe that brings you personalized

00:23

nutrition now i'm often asked what do i

00:27

eat and so i thought i'd invite you into

00:29

my home today to show you the range of

00:32

things that i would eat on an average

00:33

day and let's start with breakfast

00:36

so let's go on to the most important

00:39

drink of the day and that is for me a

00:42

black coffee made from

00:44

good beans dry roasted packed with

00:47

polyphenols and it turns out that the

00:49

zoe predicts studies have shown that

00:52

coffee drinkers have really high levels

00:54

of a beneficial microbe that we call

00:56

freddy you can tell instantly if

00:58

someone's a coffee drinker or not just

01:00

by looking at the gut microbes so it's a

01:03

great start regardless of whether you're

01:05

gonna have breakfast or not and

01:07

sometimes i don't but let's assume we're

01:09

in one of those days where i'm gonna

01:11

have the full breakfast so the first

01:13

thing i'm gonna get out is some full fat

01:17

yogurt it can be greek style it doesn't

01:19

really matter as long as it's good

01:21

quality

01:22

and it has no other ingredients in it so

01:24

no sugars fruits it's not low fat

01:28

and for me the fat is important because

01:31

i learned when i did my own zoe scores

01:34

that breakfast i was having that's the

01:37

sort of breakfast cereal stuff

01:39

even though it said healthy measly on

01:41

the packet was giving really big bad

01:43

glucose scores so for me

01:46

starting off with a fatty breakfast

01:48

means i have a better metabolism i'm

01:50

less hungry later in the day and then

01:52

the other ingredient

01:54

is kefir or kefir which is fermented

01:58

milk for those who don't know and

01:59

generally it's from cows but you can

02:00

also get it from goats and this has

02:03

about five times the number of live

02:04

microbes as uh yogurt
