Most of us understand that learning occurs in the mind and is affected by a child’s surroundings. But recent research indicates that we might have been failing one major representative: our gut. Over the previous few years, research into the individual microbiome has burst. The microbiome is ...
Additionally, chronic depression can adversely affect the immune system. It can deplete the human body of infection-fighting T-cells, making you more susceptible to diseases. While this is an essential piece of information for everyone, it’s more critical for older people as a weak immune syste...
The gastrointestinal tract microbiome contributes to immune function, regulates systemic inflammation, and appears to affect higher cognitive functions [162]. In this sense, gut microbiota may regulate to some degree oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, metabolism, and energy expenditure during intense...
The impact of spaceflight on the immune system has been investigated extensively during spaceflight missions and in model experiments conducted on Earth. Data suggest that the spaceflight environment may affect the development of acquired immunity, and immune responses. Herein we summarize and discuss the...
Plus, a dog's immune system and overall health depend on their gut health (thanks to thatgut-mind connection). Supporting digestion with nutrients like probiotics is a proactive way to encourage not just digestive health, but also a healthy immune response and beyond!
“Sucralose Affect Glycemic and Hormonal Responses to an Oran Glucose Load” This means blood sugar is raised even though sucralose is not intended to have such an effect. Another study by the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health found that it: ...
Are you stressed out? Long-term stress can affect your gut health, weaken your immune system and leave you vulnerable to pathogens like Candida.

To our knowledge, this work represents the first characterization of the gut microbiota across several IMID that preferentially affect different body systems (i.e., the gastrointestinal tract, central nervous system, and synovium). This study aimed to determine patterns of gut microbiota dysbiosis rela...
