The gut microbiome influences women’s health beyond digestive symptoms This is the first installment of the Healio | Women’s Health & OB/GYN Nourish to Flourish column, edited by Susan Weiner, MS, RDN, CDN, CDCES, FADCES. In future installments, Weiner and Healio will speak with experts...
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by severe inflammation that damages multiple organs, primarily affecting women of childbearing age. The disease involves a dysregulated immune response and a loss of self-tolerance, which result in autoantibody production [1...
Psychiatric symptoms and psychological, social, and professional functioning was also assessed. Results: Phylum Bacteroidetes, proteobaeteria, and Fusobacteria were greatly enriched in patients with MDD, while the Firmicutes and Actinobacteria phyla were consistently higher in Con. Notably, 18 microbial ...
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common type of neurodegenerative disease, is more common in women than in men, and is the 6th most common cause of death in the U.S (Alzheimers Dement, 2020). The exact etiology of AD is unknown; however, genetic factors that affect amyloid precursor...
Altogether, these results suggest that rUTI susceptibility is in part mediated through the gut–bladder axis, comprising gut dysbiosis and differential immune response to bacterial bladder colonization, manifesting in symptoms.

A plethora of data points towards a role of the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota of neonatal and young vertebrates in supporting the development and regulation of the host immune system. However, knowledge of the impact that infections by GI helminths exert on the developing microbiota of juvenile...
production of homocysteine, hydrogen sulphide and lipopolyssacharide (LPS) that all known to promote inflammation, a feature culminating in the attack of one’s own body part. Probiotics likeLactobacillus caseihas been shown to mitigate symptoms associated with RA. Asthma is another inflammatory ...
A cohort study on 418 patients reported an increased risk of obese women (57%) with persistent symptoms of Long COVID (Desgranges et al. 2022). Distinct gender-related patterns were observed in outcomes of Long COVID, and these differences may be attributed to underlying gender differences in...
The initial colonization of the neonatal intestinal tract is influenced by delivery mode, feeding, the maternal microbiota, and a host of environmental factors. After birth, the composition of the infant’s microbiota undergoes a series of significant ch
30. If antibiotics can alleviate disease symptoms or microbial transplants can cause disease symptoms, then gain of function dysbiosis contributes to the disease process. If antibiotics can cause disease symptoms or microbial transplants can alleviate disease symptoms, loss of function dysbiosis ...
