Did You Know Probiotics Aid in Boosting Your Immune System?

Did You Know Probiotics Aid in Boosting Your Imumune System?

Probiotics [1]Probiotics are the beneficial bacteria that make up a large part of the immune system. If you’ve evertaken antibiotics, steroids or birth-control pills, or eaten CAFO meats, you’ve likely (unintentionally) killed off probiotic bacteria. In addition, glyphosate, otherwise known as RoundUp, is a pesticide typically added to wheat, corn and soy, and it was initially patented as an antibiotic. If you’ve ever eaten any of these foods as a non-organic version, you’ve likely been unknowingly consuming large amounts of antibiotics. Probiotic supplementation can help reverse the damage of antibiotics.

Study Offers Clues To Down Syndrome, Possible Treatment

Study Offers Clues To Down Syndrome, Possible Treatment [5]A recent study was done on gene expression in the brains of individuals with and without Down syndrome at various ages – ranging from mid-fetal development to adulthood. They found that the establishment of white matter, which insulates nerve fibers in the brain, changes as people with Down syndrome age.

“This discovery of the genetic changes that alter communication within the brain uncovered a completely new target for therapies in the brains of people with DS,” said Tarik Haydar, an associate professor of anatomy and neurobiology at Boston University School of Medicine who worked on the study.
