As long as we are into gut bacteria.

Hot off the press,more interesting info. Learn something new just about every minute.

Thanks, Old Mike. I really think the bacteria are the key, at least with my gut. I had this discussion with my GI today, who said that research into gut bacteria is just now taking hold and expanding... and I thought, yeah, some of us on HW have been talking about this for some years...... :-)

Hmmm... looks like it's not going to be so easy to adjust these after all...

Somewhere in there is the cure for IBD, or at least the door to finding it.

I swear someone posted a paper on here once or perhaps I came across a paper at one time that talked about a specific protein that that was released by epithelial cells to essentially attract good bacteria to get them latch on. So it was saying the intestinal cells favored beneficial bacteria in this manner. I can't find it or remember what the paper was for the life of me.

Oh! I think it was actually a food source for the bacteria... so the beneficial bacteria used the released protein as a food source....
