An interview with José Clemente: “Early life changes in microbiota as a result of C-Section may be responsible for diseases in children later on”
During the 5th Gut Microbiota for Health World Summit 2016 José Clemente, assistant professor at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, talk about the importance of gut microbiota at early life.
Researcher José Clemente, assistant professor at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, investigates whether we can revert the effects of an abnormal microbial colonisation after, for instance, a C-section. He attended the 5th Gut Microbiota for Health World Summit 2016, held in Miami and we had the opportunity to interview him and talk about the importance of gut microbiota at early life. We hope you enjoy the interview.
Gut microbiota plays a role in cholesterol metabolism by influencing bile acid production. Recent research has identified a microbial process that helps maintain metabolic balance and prevent fat accumulation. Understanding this interaction may provide insights into metabolic health and disease prevention.
A new study reveals that consuming fiber-rich foods can play a crucial role in cancer prevention. The research shows that some products of fiber digestion by gut microbiota, such as butyrate and propionate, can alter gene expression and exert anti-tumor effects. These findings highlight the importance of including whole grains, vegetables, fruits, legumes, and nuts in our daily diet to support long-term health.
Could a simple change in diet transform your gut microbiome and reduce your risk of chronic diseases? This article explores recent research testing a diet inspired by non-industrialized dietary patterns.
