🚨 New review in @natrevgastrohep.bsky.social: Should you take probiotics with antibiotics? www.nature.com/articles/s41... Bottom line: current evidence does not support the common perception that probiotics can facilitate the gut microbiome's recovery from antibiotics. BUT! 1/🧵

🚨 New preprint!! How can antibiotic-resistant bacteria increase in abundance in the human gut microbiome, even without antibiotics? 🧐 We show that strain-specific ecological interactions are key to understanding resistance dynamics in microbial communities. 🧵👇 1/5 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Given the complexity of our diets, its really tricky to link a specific food group with specific gut microbiota. @cibiocm.bsky.social & co show that coffee is associated with increased Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus. Coffee can also boost its growth in vitro! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Coffee consumption is associated with intestinal Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus abundance and prevalence across multiple cohorts - Nature Microbiology

Coffee consumption is associated with the presence and abundance of a specific member of the human gut microbiome, Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus, and changes to the plasma metabolome.

Today we publish an (in my opinion) important paper in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social 🍾 showing that gut physiology and environment are factors explaining substantial variations in human gut #microbiome composition and #metabolism🦠 Fantastic work Procházková et al. 👏 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Gut physiology and environment explain variations in human gut microbiome composition and metabolism - Nature Microbiology

An observational longitudinal clinical trial, incorporating a SmartPill and metabolomics, reveals the role of host factors in shaping the gut microbiome in healthy human adults.
