We need to stop eating beef! 80% of deforestation in Amazon caused by cattle ranching. https://t.co/V6tpKBFgj0

People spend a lot of time poring over nutrition labels. But a quick gut check shows that the trillions of bacterial cells in our bodies couldn’t care less.

Our personalized diet-microbiome study is out in @cellhostmicrobe ! https://t.co/mInZoyOmdc. TLDR: our microbes care about actual foods, not just the nutrition labels; people's microbiomes respond differently to similar foods. Thanks 2 @AbbyJohnsonRD @GeneralMills, et al.

Trying to improve upon SIBO measurement in those w/ functional GI disorders like IBS:

This group found the small intestinal microbiota (while difficult to sample) is altered when symptoms are present & changes w/ a symptom-triggering dietary intervention.
