Why the gut microbiome is behind the health effects of the Mediterranean diet

14 Apr 2020

by GMFH Editing Team

The Mediterranean dietary pattern has been largely associated with improved health outcomes. Two new randomized controlled trials reveal the contribution of gut microbiome composition and functions to explaining the potential beneficial effects of the Mediterranean diet.

2019 at a glance: Breakthroughs in the emerging role of gut microbiome in health and disease

13 Jan 2020

by GMFH Editing Team

Important scientific progress has been made in 2019 in our understanding of the contribution of gut microbiome in health and disease. Have a look at this “2019 Year at a glance” report and discover the year’s breakthroughs in the field.

Gut microbiota response to red meat associated carbohydrates may affect human health

28 Oct 2019

by Allison Clark

As a healthcare professional you may be aware that many dietary guidelines recommend limiting the consumption of red meat. Recent mechanistic research on the gut microbiota could finally settle the debate regarding the impact of red meat in health.

Demographic, environmental, and host genetics and the gut microbiome in healthy individuals

25 Oct 2019

by Allison Clark

Inter-individual gut microbiome variation remains one of the major caveats in this field of research. Scientists from different countries update the role of socio-demographic and environmental factors in inter-individual gut microbiome variation in healthy French adults.

Updated evidence on how diet may help in managing inflammatory bowel disease

14 Oct 2019

by Paul Enck

An increasing amount of scientific evidence supports the role of diet in the management of IBD in its early stages. Here, Prof. Paul Enck updates preclinical and clinical research disentangling the contribution of diet as an ally in managing IBD through the gut microbiome.

New data on how light and brain-derived stimulus influence intestinal physiology in mice

7 Oct 2019

by GMFH Editing Team

We know that our gut microbiota has its own circadian clocks and may respond to environmental light changes. New research in mice reveals that specific neuroimmune pathways controlled by circadian cycles influence intestinal physiology.

Consumption of a long-term ‘paleo’ diet is associated with changes in gut microbiota composition and increased serum TMAO

29 Aug 2019

by GMFH Editing Team

The ‘paleo’ diet is usually promoted as a means of improving gut health. But despite its popularity, new observational data reveal that individuals consuming this diet show a shift in their gut microbiota composition, along with increased serum trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) levels.

Diet and lifestyle outweigh genetic background in shaping gut microbiome across nonhuman and human primates

19 Aug 2019

by GMFH Editing Team

How genetics versus environmental factors drive gut microbiome variation in related primates remains unknown. New findings show that diet may outweigh phylogenetic evolution in shaping gut microbial communities across primate species and human hunter-gatherers and agriculturalists.

Caveats and clinical implications in the connection between the duodenal microbiome, diet and functional gastrointestinal symptoms

5 Aug 2019

by GMFH Editing Team

The assessment of SIBO through traditional methods doesn’t always allow diagnosing individuals with functional gastrointestinal symptoms. Scientists argue that it may be time to focus high-throughput molecular approaches for studying the small intestinal microbiome.

Scientists make progress in understanding the gut microbiome’s role in individual response to diet

11 Jul 2019

by Andreu Prados

It’s known that our gut microbiome contributes to interindividual variability in response to diet. Dan Knights and colleagues have found that the gut microbiome responds more to particular foods than to combinations of nutrients and that microbiome responses to diet are personalized.
