The APPG Human Microbiome Chair @JulieElliottMP asked a question of Matt Hancock in Parliament today about emerging research indicating that probiotics and prebiotics may have a role in mitigating the worst effects of COVID-19 parliamentlive.tv/event/index/fb…

On Tuesday, the Chair of the APPG, @JulieElliottMP asked the Secretary of State for Health to meet, in light of the increasing research into the relationship between gut health and covid-19. See it here⬇️ Parliamentlive.tv parliamentlive.tv/event/index/fb…

When we hear about COVID, most of us think of it as a respiratory illness. However, current research is beginning to link #GutHealth with the severity of #COVID19 symptoms. Via Amgen Biotech Experience (ABE) Program Office ow.ly/H6TH50DDOV4

We’d love to see this blue plaque (Glenn is one of the APPG’s Scientific Advisers)...

With our annual meeting, longtime ISAPP board member and legendary scientist Prof. Glenn Gibson retires from board duties! See here for ISAPP's tribute to Glenn and his many contributions to the organization over the past two decades: isappscience.org/isapp-thanks-p…

Nice tribute to Glenn Gibson as he steps away from the ISAPP Board of Directors. He is a legend and one of the most influential people in the gut health arena, but is also such a great person. Congrats, Glenn!

FREE RESOURCE - To celebrate #WorldMicrobiomeDay 🦠 we've launched a brand new public resource to learn all about the gut microbiome! quadram.ac.uk/what-is-the-gu…

A lovely introduction to the gut microbiome from APPG Human Microbiome member, Quadram Institute. 70% of our immune system is in the gut and in direct contact with gut microbes, so it’s worth knowing a bit about it given our immune system directs our response to COVID-19 infection

Awesome trial of #diet and #microbiome in healthy people Fibre diet (very high 45 g/d!) ↔️No effect on diversity ↕️Personal immune responses Fermented foods (6 servings per day!) ⬆️Increase diversity ⬇️Decreased inflammatory markers cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

L'Akkermansia muciniphila pasteurisée d'A-Mansia, première bactérie de nouvelle génération à obtenir feu vert du conseil scientifique EFSA. Recherches notamment menées par Patrice Cani Micr Obesity, Maître de recherches #FNRS UCLouvain #intestins a-mansia.com/world-first-in…

Pasteurized Akkermansia muciniphila -- which falls under ISAPP's postbiotic definition -- is deemed "safe as a food ingredient" by the European Food Safety Authority: a-mansia.com/world-first-in…

HISTORY IN THE MAKING! An invited review just published in the British Dietetic Association’s own journal on #T2D Remission concludes low carb is effective and safe 😊 We all agree on so much. No one can say now the British Dietetic Association ‘don’t like low carb’ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jh…

The closely related terms “fiber”, “microbiota-accessible carbohydrates” and “prebiotics” probably sound familiar. But what exactly are they and how can they contribute to promoting health and abrogating disease by shaping the gut microbiome? gutmicrobiotaforhealth.com/modulating-gut…

.Andrea Hardy RD now explains the importance of a rich and diverse gut microbiota for better health outcomes. Diet is the quickest & easiest way to positively influence our #gutmicrobiota #EFADCONGRESS2021

Worth the effort! what an powerful and inspiring study this was. Worth taking a look at Smiles if you haven't read it. Really showed the impact of a healthy Med-style diet on mental health bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
