According to a study conducted by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, people in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease -- after brain changes have begun but before cognitive symptoms become apparent -- have an assortment of bacteria in their intestines that
In a recent study, researchers at Mass General Brigham and Women's Hospital linked specific types of gut bacteria to the formation of precancerous colon polyps.
The composition and amount of gut bacteria in kids at 3.5 years old predict body mass index (BMI) at age 5, regardless of whether they were born prematurely or not, according to new research.
ccording to Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology researchers, gut bacteria that break down a sugar called fucose may be suppressing our immune response to the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine (OIST).
The use of antibiotics can be beneficial in treating bacterial infections, but they can also destroy the beneficial microorganisms that are found in the gut, which can have long-term health effects.
One type of bacteria found in the gut may contribute to the development of Type 2 diabetes, while another may protect from the disease, according to early results from an ongoing, prospective study led by investigators at Cedars-Sinai.
Two weeks of eating a diet heavy in tomatoes increased the diversity of gut microbes and altered gut bacteria toward a more favourable profile in young pigs, researchers have found.

The findings of a recent study headed by Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian researchers, suggests that changes in a single gene allow dangerous gut bacteria to trigger the inflammation that underlies Crohn's disease.
Changes in a single gene open the door for harmful gut bacteria to set off the inflammation that drives Crohn's disease, according to a new study led by Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian investigators. These findings could one day help doctors better select targeted treatments
