Last week, I posted a story on the Biome Buzz’ Facebook page about how a metabolite from pomegranates and berries has been found to reduce inflammatory bowel disease.[i] Researchers at the University of Louisville discovered that the metabolite, urolithin A (UroA) and a synthetic…

If you remember, my last post was a quick update on what we currently know about the microbiome-depression link, and I mention leaky gut with a promise to write more about it this week. Toward that end, on Friday evening, I read an article…

This past Thursday I promised you the 2nd big story of last week: We’ve known for a while that Parkinson’s seems to start with an “infection” in the gut. I’ve talked about this several times on this blog. Well, it looks like there is…

Two papers just came out, each showing – in different ways – how the gut is directly connected to the brain. My gut feeling is that this is going to be critically important research in the future. We already knew that the gut lining…

I spent several hours over the last couple of days surfing the internet, looking for interesting things to write about. Nothing rocked my boat though until I came across an article about the microbiome of honey bees.[i] Yeah, I know it doesn’t sound all…

Last month I wrote about bacteriophages (phages, for short) and Parkinson’s Disease. If you remember, a phage is a virus that kills bacteria. Those researchers found an abnormally high number of phages had killed off good Lactobaccillus in PD patients: ““The depletion of Lactococcus…

Many of you may not yet be familiar with the term bacteriophage. These are viruses that infect bacteria: literally the word means “bacteria eater.” I’ve been reading about their use in treating bacterial infection, as an alternative to antibiotics, especially in this age of…

I really liked this summary article on Medical Net about the bacterial microbiome through the aging process.[i] It is certainly worth a post, as all of us are getting older every day! 🙂 Highlights: Multiple factors can lead to dysbiosis as we age: Poor…

On an ordinary day, one of my posts on Facebook may reach 200 people. A couple of weeks ago though, I noticed that one reached well over 1000. It was regarding recent research out of Harvard, published in the journal, Nature, about the role…

Yet more research[i] has just been published showing the bacterial microbiome’s connection to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. A variety of bacteria (including ones found in the mouth) produce amyloid proteins (known as bacterial amyloids) similar to the ones produced naturally by our…
