Your gut health is mainly determined by the health of your gut barrier and gut flora or the intestinal microorganism. How are you going to improve them? The best way is to avoid processed foods that contains artificial flavorings, refined sugar and additives and eating foods that are dense in nutrients…

begins in the gut.” These words were spoken 2,500 years ago, and today’s scientists are just beginning to understand how right he was. As it turns out, poor gut health can absolutely hinder thyroid function and trigger autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto’s disease. Leaky Gut and Autoimmune Response The human GI tract consists of one long hollow tube that allows food to travel from the mouth all the way through the body and out the anus. One of the most important functions of “the gut” is to…

microbiota transplant may be recommended but only after the third reoccurrence. FMT allows for normalization of the gut flora, restoration of balance in the patient’s metabolism, and stimulation of immune responses in the gastrointestinal tract (Boyle, Ruth-Sahd, Zhou, 2015, p.55-56). Fecal Microbiota Transplant Fecal microbiota transplant allows for normalization of the gut flora, restoration of balance in the patient’s metabolism, and stimulation of immune responses in the gastrointestinal…

the body on all of the mucous membranes which line the gastro intestinal tract. It is just especially prominent in the colon. It has a job to do, just like any other bacteria. Its growth is normally kept in check by the friendly lacto bacteria in our gut and by a healthy immune system. When these regulating factors are disturbed, yeast (rather happily) multiplies. This multiplication of yeast can be contributed to or encouraged by a number of things. These include: - Stress, which supresses the…

As well as these foods will frequently remain much longer in the gut. Once you cleanse the colon, this matter is washed out from the system, and, in some, may lead to considerable weight loss that stays off. However, if you’re seeking to lose weight, one study implies that basically augmenting fiber ingestion can as…

According to (Mercola ,2012) women having vaginal infections during their pregnancy shows an impact on during child birth ,the unfriendly flora can predispose new born children to gut and psychology and physiology syndrome. The problems that are faced by gut and psychology syndrome and physiology syndrome can lead to many health problems for the infant as indicated below in the…

body has its own microbiome13. A microbiome is compiled of all the microorganisms in an environment, and the human microbiome consists of bacteria, archaea, virus, and eukaryotic microbes13. The gut is the most diverse microbiome in the human body due to the amount of bacteria used13. The quality of gut flora impacts digestion, metabolism, and the immune system1. This is where probiotics become useful- the human microbiome is influenced by diet and environmental…

info for many researchers to recreate the flora of the desert. Dearing’s lab focuses on liver enzymes because it allow them to look at the mRNA while the rats are fed different diets and see which enzymes are expressed on the sequence to trigger resistance to toxins. I find it really interesting that enzymes can be synthesized in the lab, but that means the animal is limited to a more restricted diet. What Dearing wants to know more about is whether or not gut microbes help woodrats consume…

Horses have a type of digestion that is called hind-gut fermentation a type of digestion characterized by a relatively small fore-gut and mid gut which digesta passes through fairly quickly. To the hind-gut where the majority of digestion occurs via microbiological forces. Staring out the digesta is swallowed into the stomach which in a horse is monogastric having only one chamber to it. That said, it is not the kidney bean shape that we would think of in humans or pigs, but it has a more…
