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.

The Iranian navy, which has been destroyed eight times, has apparently closed the Strait of Hormuz again, because the United States, for the seventh time, won the war that wasn’t a war, so now the United States has to open the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the not-war began.
The not-war began because Iran had uranium that was totally, completely, beautifully obliterated, so they can’t build the nuclear bomb they weren’t building, which is why the United States had to start the not-war it definitely didn’t start.
Now the United States, which has nuclear weapons, is threatening to use nuclear weapons to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, because nuclear weapons are far too dangerous for countries with nuclear weapons to allow other countries to have.
If the United States saw the United States doing what the United States does in other countries, the United States would invade the United States to liberate the United States from the tyranny of the United States.
@Aaron1_58 It’s respectful and it shows strength, decorum and independence. She will be Queen one day and it’s important that she is seen as an individual who has confidence in her own abilities. She takes her role seriously and balances old traditions with the present like a true Queen. ❤️
@RandomVibe_id Assholery at its finest.
Rich spoiled people are seriously disgusting.
Spare us the fakeness and give the mattress and laptop to someone who needs them.
هُزمت أمريكا في فيتنام… حين ظنت أن الشعوب تكسر بالقوة.
نساء فيتنام حولن النهر إلى جسر...
ليعبر عليه الرجال نحو الكرامة.
شعوب لا تنتظر النجاة… بل تصنعها بيدها.
إيران… كما كل أرض تؤمن بالكرامة والسيادة...
إن فرضت المعركة… فالشعب من مدرسة كربلاء، هو الجسر لعبور رجاله للكرامة
On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted.
Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness.
I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit.
I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this.
The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon.
You know who has nuclear weapons?
Israel.
They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it.
Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing.
On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies.
Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians.
Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace.
Not escalating war that is hurting people.
This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most.
This is not making America great again, this is evil.
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs on Iran: India🇮🇳 can be a PEACEMAKER, BRICS & India can stop the US’🇺🇸 DELUSIONS
‘India definitely has the stature, the power, the dignity, the precision to say no to American delusions.
India is four times the United States in population. It is ten times, and longer actually, in its civilisational history. It can say to the United States, stop misbehaving.
But I am suggesting that India do this together, not by itself, but together with Russia and with China, with Brazil, with the other BRICS countries.
I’m saying that for a couple of reasons.
First, institutionally, India is the President of the BRICS this year. I regard the BRICS as tremendously important, as consequential and as beneficial for the world, as a stabiliser for the world. Half the world’s population, half the world’s GDP, major countries.
And to be able to say we’re not in a US-run world, we’re not in a world where the US can declare it’s going to put another country into the Stone Ages, we’re in a civilised world based on international law, on the UN Charter. So the BRICS presidency is a particular reason.
Second, it isn’t pleasant dealing with Mr. Trump, I have no doubt about it. So it’s better to do it together with partners. I like to think of India and China and Russia as partners, not only as fellow members of the BRICS, but as partners in saying we want a multipolar world, not a world of blocs and not a world in which the United States continues its 30-plus-year delusion of hegemony.
So to my mind, safety in numbers, good company, BRICS presidency. This is all a case for India’s leadership.
I also happen to believe in India, that it can be a peacemaker, that it can really contribute consequentially. India’s relations with Persia also go back a very long way. And so India’s relations with Iran are deep and go back a long way.’
