Naturally informed, would be hosted by WholeFoods Magazine and Trust Transparency Center, hosted a virtual conference microbiome: Market dominance in May. The second day of the virtual conference was focused on science and emerging opportunities. Topics covered ranged from replacing lost key stone species, postbiotics, digestive health, practices for growers and more.
Human microbiome: Replacement of lost species
For the beginning of the second day of the event, at the session, Human microbiome: the power to replace lost species, keinote speaker William Davis, MD., the author of the series Wheat Belli and the new book Super Guth, summed up the topic by saying: “When you lose healthy species, unhealthy species take their place and take their place. He explained that unhealthy microbes, such as E. coli, multiply without the healthy microbes present in the microbiome. This leads to concerns such as the overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine (which he called SEBO). , which can contribute to various problems.
What causes species loss?
“We were over-exposed to antibiotics, and one-third of all children were born by caesarean section, more children were fed formula, and [due to] food additives, synthetic sweeteners, [children are] deprived of nutrients and microbes, “said Dr. Davis. In addition, chlorine and fluorine in our drinking water have changed the mucus barrier, the GI tract and the composition of the human microbiome. Furthermore, Dr. Davis pointed to herbicides, pesticides and genetic transmission of disturbed microbiomes as the causes of the lack of diversity of key species today. It is also worrying: The problem of lost species is getting worse from generation to generation. Supplementing these microbes can help with weight loss, skin health, better sleep, improved mood and more.
How can we restore healthy species?
Eating fermented foods such as yogurt is one of the key steps. “There are more microbes in yogurt that has been fermented for 36 hours or more. The real growth of microbes does not happen until 30 o’clock, so 4-hour fermented yogurt does not have the same effects, “he noted. Supplements can also help. For his recommendation, a full session can be seen on demand.
More new sciences about the microbiome
During the day, speakers Alexis Collins, Director of Product and Brand Strategy at Stratum Nutrition, Marvin Singh, MD, founder and CEO of Precision Clinic, and Asa Waldstein, founder and CEO, Supplement Advisori Group, also introduced themselves. Their sessions dealt with the topics of postbiotics, microbiome feeding and regulatory snapshots of current trends and risks.
WTFs are postbiotics and why should I formulate with them?
At the session VTF are postbiotics and why should I formulate with them ?, Collins spoke about the growing popularity of postbiotics among consumers. Google’s word search has increased, “1300% from June 2019 to June 2021.
But what are postbiotics? “Different terms were used,” Collins said. “In 2019, the use of the word increased. It was used 15 times more than probiotics destroyed by heat. It was in a big trend. Therefore, the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) brought together an international group of scientists to discuss what a postbiotic is. ISAPP has published a consensus document: defined as a preparation of inanimate microorganisms and / or their components that provides health benefits to the host.

Practitioner panel
At the next session, health workers Lynn O’Connor, MD, director of colon surgery and rectal surgery in New York, head of the department of colon surgery and rectal surgery at Mercy Hospital and St. Mary’s Hospital. Joseph; Marie Purdy, MS, RDN, integrative and eco-dietitian and assistant professor at the University, Bastir University; and Sarah Campbell, Ph.D., FACSM, Associate Professor, Director of Rutgers University, discussed patient misconceptions and innovations, and how practitioners focus on the microbiome. The experts combined their understanding of peer-reviewed literature, case studies, research and patient work. learn more on request.
Microbiome feeding
Dr. Singh then described how he optimized his gut health and strength. “When we talk about good digestive health, what does it mean? This means increasing the diversity of bacterial species in your microbiome, optimizing the risk factor for reducing disease. It’s the same thing as general health. That is why 70% of our immune system is located in our intestines. 90% of serotonin is produced in the intestinal tract. The digestive tract is the second brain. It also has its own nervous system. We are really talking about [trillions of] bacteria and fungi in our digestive tract. ”Look full session.
Snapshot regulators
At the end of the day, Asa Waldstein gave a regulatory overview of current risks in space. “Most of the execution is due to risky marketing claims. So what is a lawsuit? Everything that ends in “-itis”, most things with “-anti” in the name, everything for which the drug is “indicated”, the name of any disease and giving a statement for treatment, diagnosis, prevention. ” And you still need to know: Watch online.
