Scientists have identified specific gut bacteria that appear to trigger multiple sclerosis (MS).
In a groundbreaking study conducted at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, researchers examined 81 pairs of identical twins in which only one sibling had MS. This unique design allowed them to control for genetic and environmental factors, isolating the role of the microbiome.
The team found that two bacterial species, Eisenbergiella tayi and Lachnoclostridium, were significantly more abundant in the twins with MS. When these microbes were transferred into mouse models, they directly induced MS-like autoimmune symptoms, providing strong causal evidence.
This is the most precise identification of microbial triggers for MS to date and adds powerful support to the gut-brain axis in autoimmune disease. The discovery raises hope for new approaches to early detection, prevention, and treatment — potentially by targeting or modulating these specific bacteria before symptoms appear.
While human clinical trials are still needed, the findings represent a major step toward microbiome-based therapies for MS and other autoimmune conditions.

Chip, I simply asked you questions about how you justify this promotion of sin in your program. Instead of answering, you tried gaslighting with Scripture.
You and your wife have been given this massive platform by God and you should be a good steward of it by not conforming to the world.
Neither I, nor any Christian holding you to the Biblical standard (that we’re all held to as Christians) isn’t “hate”; it’s actually the best way to love each other. It’s actually iron sharpening iron.
Modern American Christianity CONTINUES to either promote or stay silent about God’s design for marriage & the family. Too much compromise and a low view of scripture is one of the biggest issues in the western church.
When Target was pushing radical gender ideology, you and your wife remained silent.
When you promote gay marriage and homosexuals renting wombs to cosplay “parents” in your show, you defend it and gaslight Christians for holding you both accountable. That’s awful.
I hope you can understand the clear biblical issues here…
@chipgaines Maybe you should endeavor to understand the basic moral teachings of your own alleged religion before you give lectures to other people about their lack of understanding
Because the schools have brainwashed the youngest generation. None of the dems of that generation can have independent thoughts and they have not developed critical thinking skills!
@KamalaHarris Things are hard because YOU failed the American people.
You failed us in Western North Carolina.
You failed to keep the southern border closed.
Your failure is why things are hard.
You left your room a mess and Trump is cleaning it up.
Sit. Down.
Well, unemployment is low, the stock market is high, Iran's nuclear program has been defanged, DEI is on the retreat, men can no longer compete in women's' sports and we have an actual border.
Sounds like things are pretty good right now.
God Bless America and Happy 4th of July!
@Simone_Biles@Riley_Gaines_ No, your assessment and support of men taking over women sports is sick. I sure hope you compete again, only to lose to a man.
