Can gut bugs change the world? Join Warren Peters on a journey into understanding your microbiome and the new discoveries changing the way we understand diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, autism, and our everyday health and wellness.

If asked, he will tell you that the first part of his medical career was in general surgery, where “if something is wrong with you, I will cut it out."  The next was dedicated to lifestyle and natural medicines, where “if something is wrong with you, just try harder."  And finally, the last part is dedicated to the molecular and genetic basis of obesity, where "if something is wrong with you, it is the fault of your parents and the changing environment."  Within these three perspectives, reside the virtues of common sense and wisdom.

He obtained his medical degree from Loma Linda University, his surgical training at the Mason Clinic in Seattle Washington, and, his Master’s  degree in biostatistics and epidemiology from Loma Linda University.  He is privileged to travel and lecture nationally and internationally on topics of nutrition, wholeness, and wellness.  He has practiced surgical care, wholistic care, and, primary care in Washington, Maryland, Virginia, and California.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world.
