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.
Adverse reactions to food are on the rise and include both food sensitivities and food intolerances. Learn more about the differences between the two and the most important factor to consider before going on a restrictive diet.
Rural living, vaginal delivery, pet ownership, eating a wide variety of foods, low antibiotic use, and breast milk microbiota can prevent your children from developing a respiratory or food allergy. But what if differences in the gut microbiota could predict which children will grow out of their allergies?
There is a growing interest in the role diet plays in behavior, yet current studies have yielded inconsistent results around directly linking the gut microbiome as the cause of certain behaviors such as anxiety, depression and autistic behavior. A recent study tries to tackle the question of whether the gut microbiome is directly linked to autism spectrum disorders.
