Swedish and German researchers find that a modern biological change to a protein in the human body protects individuals from oxidative stress that causes vascular diseases and inflammatory bowel disease (IBS).
New research from scientists at the Technical University of Munich suggests one cause of IBD is the bacteria living in the gut microbiome.
Triclosan, an antibacterial present in toothpaste, toys, and dozens of other goods, has been shown to cause gut inflammation in mice, according to recent research.
A recent study focusing on the gut microbiome may be a vital link to groundbreaking future treatment of gastrointestinal ailments such as irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and slow transit constipation.
