Microbiome Journal Club: Do different commonly used diets fed to zebrafish in research facilities affect their gut microbiome and ability to resist pathogen infections?

Here are some common red flags I see from ppl on TikTok who promote gut health pseudoscience. Individually, these aren’t necessarily bad but a pattern of these red flags suggests the person is promoting pseudoscience. When in doubt ask a trained medical professional or scientist. Be safe, be skeptical. #guthealth #wellness #microbiome #probiotics #rawfood #rawmilk #toxins #science #pseudoscience #sciencebasedmedicine @skepticsguide @spnovella
Replying to @grahamlutz Our microbiomes health affects its ability to perform its functions in and around our body. For example, our gut microbiome plays an important role in digesting our food, supporting our immune system, and communicating with our nervous and other bodily systems. A disruption to our microbiomes health could negatively impact our microbiome to perform these functions which could also impact our health. Therefore, it’s important to maintain microbiome resilience to withstand and buffer against disturbances.

Stool tests are theoretically promising gut health screening and diagnostic tools, but practically at this point they do not provide sufficiently informative or actionable data to implement health interventions.
Your poop microbiome varies substabtially day-to-day, which challenges our ability to get an accurate microbiome profile. Research shows you need 5 tests across time to get best results. However, there are additional fundamental issues with stool test technologies that complicate their utlity.
Unfortunately, stool tests are currently not at a place to provide useful clinical insight or application

Replying to @zomppmoz verdict: 👎👎
Imo, this product checks a lot of boxes for being pseudoscientific/snake oil. Is it harmful, probably not. Is it helpful, doubtful. But the sales page makes a lot of bold claims that arent backed by any citations. For your money, you’re better off buying a CSA share from a local farm to get more food and nutrition than you’ll get from this product.

Replying to @zomppmoz its hard to say without knowing what exact supplement youre taking. generally speaking supplements are harmless, but that doesnt mean they are helpful. Imo, supplements are at best placebos, and at worst snake oil scams. There are exceptions, but these have rigorous research backing them. #supplements #guthealth #gutmicrobiome #supergreens
