Why isn't "Turicibacter sanguinis" available as a probiotic? Just curious. https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3921/13/5/600 As already mentioned above, the same authors have shown that the administration of PEA modulates the gut microbiota. They have started from previous studies that found that HFD...

Is there any literature on the idea that taking too high a dose of probiotics could produce SIBO? I don't know what is supposed to cause SIBO or whether there are even any leading hypotheses about what causes it.

I'd never heard of this product: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5138452/ From the presented overview of Symbioflor E. coli research, which to the knowledge of the author covers all available peer-reviewed literature on this product, it is obvious that the research conducted is...

Is it possible that any of the bacteria types included in this ( https://aor.ca/product/probiotic-3 ) product are actually unhelpful or even harmful? One tends to think that they wouldn't be selling X unless X were at least safe and hopefully effective too. From the above link, see this...

Is there any literature on the combination of antihistamines (H1, H2, and both H1 and H2) and probiotics? Is there a potential ambiguity whereby you think you have a gut-biota problem but actually you have an immune-system problem? For example, someone might take an anti-inflammatory drug (like...

I haven't been on this forum for a long time. See below some questions. 1: What are the odds that it will turn out that the gut biota are not as impactful as many thought? To what extent is there unwarranted "hype" around gut biota? See here, for example...

I wouldn't be surprised if addressing gut-biota problems fixed any psychiatric condition. Of course, a big question is whether there will be any clinical trials that will take a gut-biota treatment (in this case, for bipolar) from anecdote to something more than anecdote. Do you know any trials...

Doesn't seem like it's possible to buy an L-DOPA supplement. You can only get the one that isn't "earmarked" for production of DA and NE, right?

1: I took some 5-HTP last night and it made a huge (!!!) difference. I really hope that this quite miraculous improvement doesn't go away. 2: When was the last time you took some 5-HTP? Baffling to me why it stopped working for you; hope you can get the effect back. 3: What can one say about...

1: Do you guys know a lot about butyrate and butyrate supplementation? See this excellent paper: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/pharmacology/articles/10.3389/fphar.2022.893567/full. The paper says interesting things about butyrate, including the following: 2: I took some butyrate pills...

1: I get a huge reaction from melatonin. That's why I'm interested in agomelatine, which apparently has a superior melatonin-receptor effect to melatonin's, though I can't remember what exactly the advantage is supposed to be. 2: Melatonin is a fascinating thing...see this paper here...

Thanks for the excellent points. I appreciate it. 1: If you don't mind me asking, what are your credentials? You seem to have professional knowledge. 2: What do you think about Pendulum's products? Some of their products seem to be redundant. I think that the "Metabolic Daily" one contains...

What do you guys think about the cocktail that is mentioned below? And is that cocktail at all close to being available to consumers? https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2607/12/8/1627

Thanks. I assume that only trial and error can tell you which of the below is the best value for the money? They're all different prices on a per-capsule basis. https://www.amazon.ca/Boulardii-Billion-Diarrhea-Relief-Capsules/dp/B00CORN7PW...

Regarding treatment of dysbiosis, what are the implications of the bold part below? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9300896/ How often do people use this type of probiotic? I hadn't heard of it...
