Methionine ameliorates intestinal injury in senescence-accelerated mouse prone-8 mice by reducing sulfate-reducing bacteria and enhancing barrier function

This research investigates the impact of varying dietary methionine levels on intestinal integrity and gut microbiota in aging mice, utilizing the SAMP8 mouse model specifically. The study involved three dietary groups: a methionine-restricted group, a normal group, and a methionine-supplemented group, with SAMP1 mice serving as the control group. Key parameters evaluated included intestinal barrier function, colon […]

Fermented foods: Harnessing their potential to modulate The Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis for mental health

Whole food supplementation techniques have been used to address mental health throughout the last 20 years. Furthermore, the capacity of gut bacteria, also known as psychobiotics, to influence behavior favorably through the microbiota-gut-brain axis has drawn increased attention. Foods that have undergone fermentation provide a comprehensive whole-food microbiota-modifying intervention. Fermented foods (FF) were found to […]
