In conclusion, a number of high-income countries, changes in health expectancies over time have not kept pace with the growth in life expectancy. That is, people are living longer but disability and poor health are occupying an increasing proportion of later life. Our findings suggest that countries still need to make significant progress to achieve the WHO's Decade of Healthy Ageing goal of healthier, longer lives for all.

There is No One Universal Pro-Longevity Gut Microbiome
Evidence suggests that the gut microbiome is influential on long-term health and late life mortality, to perhaps a similar degree as exercise. The various populations of microbial life found in the gut change with age; microbes producing beneficial metabolites are lost, while microbes that provoke chronic inflammation or other issues increase in number. Experiments in short-lived species have shown that transplanting a youthful microbiome into an older individual results in improved health and extended life span. In principle, similar effects could be achieved by some sort of intensive oral probiotic treatment, but that ha...

Make Some Microbe Friends
By KIM BELLARD
It’s the coolest story I’ve seen in the past few days: The New York Times reported how an Italian museum cleaned its priceless Michelangelo sculptures with an army of bacteria. As Jason Horowitz wrote, “restorers and scientists quietly unleashed microbes with good taste and an enormous appetite on the marbles, intentionally turning the chapel into a bacterial smorgasbord.”
And you just want to kill them all with your hand sanitizers and anti-bacterial soaps.
The Medici Chapel in Florence had the good fortune to be blessed with an abundance of works by Michelangelo, but the ...

This study suggests that some of those changes contribute to age-related hypertension, providing yet another reason to put resources into the near term development of therapies that can reverse the aging of the gut microbiome, such as flagellin vaccination or fecal microbiota transplantation.
"Previous studies from our lab have shown that the composition of the gut microbiota in animal models of hypertension, such as the SHRSP (spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone) rat model, is different from that in animals with normal blood pressure. Further, transplanting dysbiotic gut microbiota from a hypertensive animal ...

The Relationship Between the Gut Microbiome and Declining Immune Function in Aging
The composition of the gut microbiome changes with age, becoming less helpful and more inflammatory as the proportion of actively harmful bacteria grows. There are many contributing causes with plausible supporting evidence in the scientific literature, including dietary changes characteristic of late life, immune aging, intestinal tissue dysfunction that is downstream of stem cell aging or senescent cell accumulation, and so forth. As is often the case in these matters, it remains unclear as to which of these causes are the most relevant targets for the development of therapies.
That said, it is possible to produce...

SIBO Success Story Needed
I’ve written a new book about the microbiome that will be released in February, 2022. As many readers of the Wheat Belly Blog know, you can count on me to provide unique and original ideas that you cannot obtain anywhere else. You can find plenty of copycats out there but, if you want to hear it first and hear it right, you can rely on the information I provide. And much of it is literally life-changing, like my Lactobacillus reuteri yogurt that, made using the modified methods I developed, yields youth-preserving, age-reversing effects such as reduced skin wrinkles, accelerated healing, restoration of youthfu...

Reducing Measured Epigenetic Age by a Few Years with Diet and Lifestyle Changes
Epigenetic clocks assess changing patterns of DNA methylation at CpG sites on the genome that correlate well with chronological age, and to some degree with biological age. People who age more rapidly, as judged by a range of factors such as presence or risk of age-related conditions, tend to have a higher assessed epigenetic age. It remains unclear as to which processes of aging are reflected by any given set of DNA methylation markers, however. For example, the early clocks are insensitive to exercise and fitness. Sedentary people and fit people at any given age tend to measure the same epigenetic age.
Today's open ...

Diet, disease, and the microbiome
There is growing interest in the human body’s microbiome and its connection to chronic disease. A new study examines that connection, along with how the foods we eat influence the composition of our microbiome.
Microbiome protects host and plays role in disease risk
The microbiome consists of the genes of tiny organisms (bacteria, viruses, and other microbes) found in the gastrointestinal tract, primarily in the small and large intestine. The normal gut flora — another term for the microbiome — protects its human host. For the microbiome to flourish, the right balance must exist, with the healthy species dominating t...
