This enzymatic process breaks down these compounds into simpler sugars, making them more digestible. As a result, it reduces the digestive discomfort associated with consuming foods such as beans, peas, and certain vegetables. ...
Gut Adaptation; the body’s natural ability to “heal” itself. The human body is nothing short of miraculous. It can create life, perform incredible feats, and allow us to experience the world through a number of senses. But what happens when the body becomes damaged from illness or injury? Medical advancements have helped us come a long way in fighting disease, injury and ...
Classification and Functions of Common Phytochemicals Flavonoids Species: Quercetin, brassin, catechin, lignan, anthocyanin, resveratrol Functions: Anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, cancer prevention (breast cancer, ovarian cancer), lowering blood lipids and cholesterol Carotenoids Species: Carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, cryptoxanthin, capsaicin, lycopene Functions: ...
The main clinical symptoms of the latter are caused by the migration of larvae, which can cause damage to the skin, lungs and digestive tract. The larvae migrate to other organs with the bloodstream, causing damage to the corresponding organs. ...
Symbiotic microbial groups within the digestive tract of herbivores are the main source of depolymerized lignocellulases. ...
Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant tumor of the digestive tract that is difficult to diagnose and treat, and the morbidity and mortality rates have risen dramatically in recent years. ...
Wastewater & COVID-19 Connections When the word wastewater crosses your mind, there is probably also a memory of your Mom’s voice telling you – wash your hands! When humans transitioned into community living, keeping your living space separate from your bathroom space was an important rule to learn. We can thank early scientists who were curious about how diseases spread and ...
Pediatric Short Bowel Syndrome (also called SBS or Short Gut Syndrome) generally develops shortly after birth due to an underlying gastrointestinal (GI) condition. The condition then can lead to intestinal surgery, in which part of the short bowel is removed. SBS is a devastating condition where patients struggle to absorb life-sustaining nutrients from their diet due to the surgical removal of ...
Oral probiotics Vaginal probiotics taken orally have to pass through the digestive tract, often reaching the rectal tract, as well as the vaginal tract after this. ...

Research Achievements of Human Microbiome In recent years, with the continuous research on the human microbiome, gut microbes have been found to be closely related to a variety of human diseases, including not only digestive tract diseases such as colitis and colon cancer (these digestive tract diseases, flora, and ...
Up to now, there are nearly 2,000 known enzymes. Digestive enzyme is one of them. It is mainly secreted by the digestive glands and digestive system that has a digestive effect. ...
The strains of symbiotic bacteria preparations are derived from the human intestinal tract, which can promote the growth and reproduction of native bacteria, or directly play a role, such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus. ...
There are examples of symbiosis we know well; the honeybee gathering nectar from flowers; the barnacle on the belly of a whale; the bacteria in your digestive tract. But what about the algae in your 3D printed organ? The next great symbiotic relationship for humans could be between fabricated tissues and pond scum. ...
On March 11, 2019, scientists at the University of California Berkeley (UC Berkeley) published a study on nature microbiology on the gut anatomical properties of the passalid beetle that helps it transform decaying wood into energy-rich materials. Passalid beetles’ digestive tracts contain microbes that provide a roadmap for the production of affordable, ...
The activity of detoxifying enzymes and glucose absorption were measured in the digestive tract of Helix aspersa exposed to nickel. Nickel decreased CAT activity and, in the lower concentration, inhibited intestinal absorption of glucose. ...
Live Lactobacillus casei is present in fermented dairy products and has beneficial properties for human health. In the human digestive tract, the resident flora generally prevents the establishment of ingested lactic acid bacteria, the presence of which is therefore transient. ...
