Brain And Bowel

Brain affects your gut. Gut affects your brain. #IBD #IBS #Anxiety #Depression are all related. We explore these issues and #Microbiota #Epigenetics

Small clinical trial finds people given 42 grams of walnuts (~a palm-full) a day for two, 3-week periods increased beneficial gut bacteria that produce butyrate, reduced secondary bile acids that are linked to colon cancer, and improved LDL cholesterol. https://t.co/fKMuz3mMTV

Time-restricted feeding even without reducing calories or losing weight improved insulin sensitivity among patients with prediabetes.

Antibody-mediated responses are highly variable between individuals. A new mice study shows that early-life antibiotic-driven dysbiosis leads to dysregulated vaccine immune responses through enhanced cytokine recall responses via @cellhostmicrobe https://t.co/AS2STzwTFd

Mmm...like I needed another reason to eat dark chocolate! https://t.co/SkiWhM6UKO

A small pilot clinical trial shows dark chocolate consumption increases neuroplasticity, improves memory and mood, reduces stress and inflammation. https://t.co/Icwk560PF4

Clear discussion of the real roots of autoimmunity by Amy Proal @microbeminded2 . The theory involves molecular mimicry where pathogens or their metabolites look a lot like our own tissue and thus confuse the immune system. Big Pharma is not a fan.

The intestinal microbiota could be involved in gluten intolerance. A new study shows that formula feeding & HLA-DQ2 genotype influence the presence of pathogenic bacteria differently in the intestinal microbiota in infants at familial risk of developing CD https://t.co/Y6IkvCcvvd

A new study has found a probiotic administered twice daily to multiple sclerosis (MS) patients for 2 months may increase the abundance of several taxa known to be depleted in MS such as Lactobacillus and decreased the abundance of dysbiosis-related taxa https://t.co/odmH5njOjl

Gut microbiota produces a wide range of metabolites that
coevolved with the human body for millions of years. A new review via @mSystemsJ explores the gut microbiome-metabolomic-human health axis in mediating the impact of diet on health outcomes https://t.co/CvWy8aO2u6

A small randomized, placebo-controlled trial shows a compound that targets mitochondria (mitoQ) improved dilation of participants' arteries by 42%, which made their blood vessels look 15 to 20 years younger. https://t.co/4EPnDlJ13U

Gut permeability is associated with increased anxiety, depression and recurrent pregnancy loss in some women.

Your gut flora plays a role in how much active #oestrogen is available for your body to use. That includes your #brain.

Is weight load on joints the cause of osteoarthritis, or is it inflammation? In mice, the answer is clear -- and the cure is simple.

Birth mode & gut microbiota may contribute to child overweight. A new study shows evidence of a novel sequential mediator pathway involving birth mode and Firmicutes species richness for the intergenerational transmission of overweight via @JAMAPediatrics https://t.co/KReY0snIcT

Microbial communities development has a relevant role for host health. A new review via @NatRevGastroHep focuses on how priority effects shape microbial community assembly in early childhood. Today is the last day for free download: https://t.co/hWPeFS1SM5

#Research shows that healthy #seniors who ate daily helpings of leafy green #vegetables such as spinach, kale and collard greens, had a slower rate of cognitive decline, compared to those who ate little or no greens. Read more: https://t.co/fSIVGfnH3d
