“FTA: > 10-hydroxy-cis-12-octadecenoic acid (HYA), a gut microbial metabolite of linoleic acid, has a suppressive effect on intestinal inflammation, researchers have discovered. HYA is expected to be practically applied as a functional food.”

“Before and after the intervention, participants provided fecal samples for microbial sequencing. The investigators observed that the overall makeup of the participants' gut microbial populations underwent considerable changes over the eight-week intervention.”

“People that underwent an aerobic exercise routine (30-60 minutes three times a week for six weeks) increased gut bacteria that produce butyrate, which promotes healthy intestinal cells and reduces inflammation. This was also confirmed in mice, which were more resistant to experimental ulcerative colitis after the exercise-induced changes in the gut microbiome.”

“Researchers analyzed the participants' gut microbial makeup and assessed their physical activity levels over several years. They found that a specific gut microbe called Alistipes putredinis played a crucial role in how physical activity influenced body weight.”

“Endotoxin has been shown to cause neuroinflammation and may explain why control mice that were given a fecal transplant with gut bacteria from "Alzheimer's mice" had amyloid beta plaque accumulation in their brains.”

“Berberine undergoes extensive metabolism in the gut, has notably poor bioavailability, and demonstrates a generally favorable safety profile. Berberine and metformin differ markedly in their chemical structures and bioavailability, but they share many features in terms of their effects on chronic diseases.”

“While this research supports the connection between the gut microbiome and the brain, the mechanisms for how different types of gut bacteria affect the brain are still not known. It's an exciting time to be in this field of research!”

“Mice that had more of this specific gut bacterium also tended to have more creatine in their plasma. Bifidobacterium pseudolongum increased levels of the creatine transporter Slc6a8 in intestinal cells, supporting creatine uptake from the gut.”

“Researchers analyzed the gut microbial species and the byproducts of their metabolism from nearly 200 mice with diverse genetic backgrounds. They also tracked the animals' daily exercise activity and measured their endurance.”

“Evidence suggests that people with IBS often have dysbiosis, an imbalance in the microbial makeup of the gut. A recent study indicates that human milk oligosaccharides may be beneficial in modulating the gut microbial profile of people who have IBS.”
