Oral health is critical for total body and well-being; however, little improvement in oral status has occurred the U.S. over past 20 years. Tooth decay gum disease remain highly prevalent, with more than 90% 50% of adults suffering from these conditions, respectively. To combat this lack improvement, alternative approaches to dental care are now being suggested. One such therapy probiotics care. In cavity, probiotic strains have been shown reduce levels pathogens, inhibit formation caries, bacteria that cause halitosis. However, as market expands, many products contain bacterial species no documented benefits leading confusion mistrust among consumers clinicians. This enhanced by regulatory which puts onus safety efficacy on manufacturer rather a central body. The overarching goal review provide clinicians evidence supporting (or refuting) marketed sale United States. includes defining what constitutes an product strain level analysis candidate genera Streptococcus, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacillus. Additionally, prebiotics postbiotics will be discussed. Finally, set considerations provided empower decision making. Together, improve understanding US professionals consumers.

Advances in synthetic biology and the clinical application of bacteriotherapy enable use genetically engineered bacteria (GEB) to combat various diseases. GEB act as a small ‘machine factory’ intestine or other tissues continuously produce heterologous proteins molecular compounds and, thus, diagnose cure disease work an adjuvant reagent for treatment by regulating immune system. Although achievements GEBs therapy diseases are promising, practical implementation this new therapeutic modality remains grand challenge, especially at initial stage. In review, we introduce development their advantages management, summarize latest research advances microbial genetic techniques, discuss administration routes, performance indicators limitations used platforms management.

Physiologically, the intestinal barrier plays a crucial role in homeostasis and nutrient absorption prevents pathogenic entry, harmful metabolites, endotoxin absorption. Recent advances have highlighted association between severely damaged barriers diabetes, obesity, fatty liver, cardiovascular diseases. Evidence indicates that an abated leads to endotoxemia associated with systemic inflammation, insulin resistance, lipid accumulation, accelerating obesity liver Nonetheless, specific mechanism of damage effective improvement remain be explored. Here, we discuss crosstalk changes metabolic disease. This paper also highlights how improve gut from perspective natural medicine, microbiota remodeling, lifestyle interventions, bariatric surgery.

Osteoporosis is a systemic multifactorial bone disease characterized by low quality and density microstructure damage, increasing fragility fracture vulnerability. Increased osteoclast differentiation activity are important factors contributing to loss, which common pathological manifestation of diseases such as osteoporosis. TNF-a/NF-κB an inflammatory signaling pathway with key regulatory role in regulating formation, the classical RANKL/RANK/OPG assists formation. Activation this promotes formation osteoclasts accelerates process Recent studies emerging evidence have consistently demonstrated potential probiotics modulate health.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) pose a global health challenge, leading to substantial morbidity, mortality, and economic strain. Our review underscores the escalating incidence of NCDs worldwide highlights potential regenerative agriculture (RA) products in mitigating these diseases. We also explore efficacy dietary interventions NCD management prevention, emphasizing superiority plant-based diets over those high processed foods red meat. Examining role gut microbiome various diseases, including liver disorders, allergies, metabolic syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, we find compelling evidence implicating its influence on disease development. Notably, modifications can positively affect microbiome, fostering symbiotic relationship with host making this critical strategy prevention treatment.
