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.
Personalized nutrition is still in its infancy but it is an increasingly important area of research that may one day help us better plan nutritional interventions to ensure a better response from patients.

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.

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.

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.

A healthy diet that is high in fiber and a regular eating schedule during the day are easily accessible methods for improved gut microbiota rhythmicity.
Diet greatly influences gut microbiota composition, and evidence shows how the way gut microbiota metabolizes our food may be more relevant than the actual food we eat.

A recent study by Philippe Marteau has analyzed and evaluated the speed at which abdominal discomfort improves after a fermented milk product (FMP) is consumed.
