Have a question about this video? Leave it in the comment section at ‪http://nutritionfacts.org/video/preventing-cataracts-with-diet/ and I'll try to answer it!‬ The concentration of advanced glycation end-products in animal-based foods may help explain this finding; see my video Glycotoxins (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/glycotoxins/). In Prevent Glaucoma and See 27 Miles Farther (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prevent-glaucoma-and-see-27-miles-farther/) I covered the second leading cause of blindness, glaucoma, and the day before that I covered two other leading causes of vision loss in Preventing Macular Degeneration with Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/preventing-macular-degeneration-with-diet/), where I also touch on diabetic retinopathy. I have 105 other videos on plant-based diets (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/plant-based-diets/) and hundreds of other videos on more than a thousand subjects (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/)—I hope you'll check them out.

This closes out my 4-part video series on the latest in probiotic science. I started with the two most established indications for their use in Preventing and Treating Diarrhea with Probiotics (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/preventing-and-treating-diarrhea-with-probiotics/), then moved onto a more speculative use in Preventing the Common Cold with Probiotics? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/preventing-the-common-cold-with-probiotics/), and then offered practical advice on how to best take probiotic supplements in my last video, Should Probiotics Be Taken Before, During, or After Meals? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/should-probiotics-be-taken-before-during-or-after-meals/). The colon removal story reminds me of the mastectomies they used to do for breast pain (Plant-Based Diets For Breast Pain http://nutritionfacts.org/video/plant-based-diets-for-breast-pain/). Why might the vegetarian diet alone have improved mood? Check out my videos Plant-Based Diet & Mood (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/plant-based-diet-mood/) and the follow-up Improving Mood Through Diet (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/improving-mood-through-diet/) as well as my serotonin series starting with Human Neurotransmitters in Plants (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/human-neurotransmitters-in-plants/). More on treating chronic fatigue syndrome in: • A Treatment for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/a-treatment-for-chronic-fatigue-syndrome/) • Fibromyalgia vs. Vegetarian & Raw Vegan Diets (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fibromyalgia-vs-vegetarian-raw-vegan-diets/) • Fibromyalgia vs. Mostly Raw & Mostly Vegetarian Diets (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fibromyalgia-vs-mostly-raw-mostly-vegetarian-diets/) What else might our good bacteria be doing for us? They may be helping with weight control (Fawning Over Flora http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fawning-over-flora/ and Gut Flora & Obesity http://nutritionfacts.org/video/gut-flora-obesity/) and serving up anti-cancer compounds! (Flax and Fecal Flora http://nutritionfacts.org/video/flax-and-fecal-flora/ and Sometimes the Enzyme Myth Is True http://nutritionfacts.org/video/sometimes-the-enzyme-myth-is-true/).
