A new study has found that the gut microbiota is sensitive to a high salt diet and this may be partially involved in the immune dysfunction linked to hypertension and autoimmune diseases.
A scientific committee chaired has taken care to put together a program that covers the most relevant issues in the field today.
When UK researcher Glenn R. Gibson introduced the concept of prebiotics to the scientific community in 1995 it was clear to him that the gut microbiota had the potential to play a major role in health.
