Within just a few weeks of each other, two papers have been published looking at the potential of using helminths to treat neurological conditions. Not surprisingly, both focus on the powerful anti-inflammatory effect of helminths. (For those of you new to helminths: these are…

Two more recent article provide yet more evidence linking gut inflammation to the development of Parkinson’s disease…which my regular readers know, is another of my particular interests, as I have 3 friends already suffering from it. The first article describes research at the University…

This was a banner week, in terms of incredibly interesting bits of research popping up everywhere. It was hard to figure out what to write about for today! I have ended up choosing a study out of Duke University looking at the effects of…

Last week I wrote about how nitric oxide, a communication molecule naturally produced by our bodies, is also produced by the bacteria of our gut. The molecule attaches to thousands of proteins in our bodies and can turn genes on and off, greatly affecting…

I don’t know if you remember but back in December, I wrote about research into how phages (viruses that kill bacteria) can understand the language of bacteria, allowing them to spy on their fellow gut inhabitants, thereby optimizing their own existence. Discoveries into inter-species…

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…
