Supporting the Microbiome and Mental Health
The coronavirus pandemic has increased stress level, anxiety, and mental health in general for everyone in one way or another. Whether we are aware of it or not, the significant changes in work, home life, and ability to go places…
Metabolic Endotoxemia and Heart Disease
Written by Acacia Young , Director of Scientific Affairs at Microbiome Labs Among non-communicable diseases, metabolic endotoxemia is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Metabolic endotoxemia is a condition that stems from intestinal dysbiosis and a breakdown of…
Immunity and infectious disease – the central role of the microbiome
The Human Microbiome Project has discovered that each microbiome contains up to 3.3 million unique protein-encoding genes. This burgeoning area of research continues to highlight the importance of the microbiome and the extent of its reach. One continuing area of…
The power of the Bacillus subtilis HU58 spore
The Bacillus subtilis HU58 strain was first isolated from a healthy human microbiome by spore expert Professor Simon Cutting at Royal Holloway University (which explains the HU in the name). Bacillus subtilis spores have been shown in a 2009 study…
