Fasting-Mimicking Diet Modulates Microbiota and Promotes Intestinal Regeneration
“Our results indicate that FMD cycles cause a reduction in intestinal inflammation, increase intestinal stem cells (ISCs), and promote the expansion of beneficial gut microbiota, resulting in improvements in IBD-associated […]
Vitamin A regulates immune system regulation
“What’s the trick to the microbiome’s work with the immune system? Vitamin A — the bacteria moderate active vitamin A levels in the intestine, protecting the microbiome from an overactive […]
Metabolite produced by gut microbiota from pomegranates reduces IBD
“Scientists at the University of Louisville have shown that a microbial metabolite, Urolithin A, derived from a compound found in berries and pomegranates, can reduce and protect against inflammatory bowel […]
Cannabis link to relieving intestinal inflammation explained
“new research from the University of Massachusetts Medical School and the University of Bath showing that endocannabinoids help control and prevent intestinal inflammation in mice”
IBD Triggered by Gut Microbes and Dietary Compounds
“Researchers in the U.S. and U.K. have uncovered a link between an antimicrobial toxin that is produced by common gut bacteria to fend off their rivals and inflammatory bowel disease […]
Vit D leads to a shift of the bacterial composition in Crohn’s disease
“Vitamin D has a specific influence on the bacterial communities in CD, but not in healthy controls.”
Artificial sweetener Splenda could intensify symptoms in those with Crohn’s disease
“In a study that has implications for humans with inflammatory diseases, researchers from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and colleagues have found that, given over a six-week period, […]
Engineering the gut microbiome with ‘good’ bacteria may help treat Crohn’s disease
“Researchers have singled out a bacterial enzyme behind an imbalance in the gut microbiome linked to Crohn’s disease. The new study suggests that wiping out a significant portion of the […]
How the microbiome is linked to autoimmune disorders
“We found that a protein expressed by gut bacteria called Bacteroides works to prevent IBD by rapidly recruiting white blood cells to kill a cell of the immune system that […]
