Worth the effort! what an powerful and inspiring study this was. Worth taking a look at Smiles if you haven't read it. Really showed the impact of a healthy Med-style diet on mental health

Awesome trial of #diet and #microbiome in healthy people
Fibre diet (very high 45 g/d!)
↔️No effect on diversity
↕️Personal immune responses
Fermented foods (6 servings per day!)
⬆️Increase diversity
⬇️Decreased inflammatory markers

The closely related terms “fiber”, “microbiota-accessible carbohydrates” and “prebiotics” probably sound familiar. But what exactly are they and how can they contribute to promoting health and abrogating disease by shaping the gut microbiome? gutmicrobiotaforhealth.com/m…

If you are an accomplished early career scientist studying probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics or fermented foods, you may be interested in the 2022 Glenn Gibson Early Career Researcher Prize sponsored by @ISAPPscience. Good luck! isappscience.org/for-student…

HISTORY IN THE MAKING! An invited review just published in the British Dietetic Association’s own journal on #T2D Remission concludes low carb is effective and safe 😊 We all agree on so much. No one can say now the @BDA_Dietitians ‘don’t like low carb’ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

A lovely introduction to the gut microbiome from APPG Human Microbiome member, @TheQuadram. 70% of our immune system is in the gut and in direct contact with gut microbes, so it’s worth knowing a bit about it given our immune system directs our response to COVID-19 infection
FREE RESOURCE - To celebrate #WorldMicrobiomeDay 🦠 we've launched a brand new public resource to learn all about the gut microbiome!

Nice tribute to Glenn Gibson as he steps away from the @ISAPPscience Board of Directors. He is a legend and one of the most influential people in the gut health arena, but is also such a great person. Congrats, Glenn!
With our annual meeting, longtime ISAPP board member and legendary scientist Prof. Glenn Gibson retires from board duties!

We’d love to see this blue plaque (Glenn is one of the APPG’s Scientific Advisers)...
In the Ask Us Anything session, Glenn Gibson describes the conversation that led to the definition of prebiotics -- Gregor Reid suggests putting a plaque outside the pub in London where it occurred, so it can be included in bus tours in the future! 😂

When we hear about COVID, most of us think of it as a respiratory illness. However, current research is beginning to link #GutHealth with the severity of #COVID19 symptoms. Via @ABEProgOffice
