24.01.2022 Doctors will often test your liver function (with good reason) but how do you know what is going on in your gut? At Woodbridge Pharmacy we offer a range of gut microbiome testing options depending on your needs and symptoms. Testing can help by giving you a breakdown of your gut microbiome along with your potential to produce beneficial short chain fatty acids as well as identify species associated with increased risk of disease. Speak to Anthony today if you want to know where to start with gut microbiome testing.

08.01.2022 Prebiotics can be supplemented as well as being found in many fibre rich foods that we can incorporate into our diet. They feed specific strains of beneficial bacteria which grow at the expense of the 'bad guy's. Care needs to be taken with IBS patients on low-FODMAP diets for two reasons. Firstly adding large amounts of prebiotics to your diet may cause worsening of your symptoms and secondly a low-FODMAP diet shouldn’t be followed indefinitely without rechallenge as it will deprive your gut microbiome of essential nutrients.

06.01.2022 Antibiotics are life saving medications. There is no disputing this. However there can be a tendency to overuse antibiotics and take them for conditions (such as viral colds) which they are ineffective against. Even after four years a person's gut microbiome may remain permanently altered following a course of antibiotics. Thankfully there are ways of mitigating any changes to your gut microbiome caused by antibiotics. Speak to Anthony in store if you are taking or are about to start a course of antibiotics and would like some advice on how to protect your microbial diversity.

06.01.2022 If you’ve ever gone with your gut to make a decision or felt butterflies in your stomach when nervous, you’re likely getting signals from an unexpected source: your second brain. Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system (ENS). And it’s not so little. The ENS is two thin layers of more than 100 million nerve cells lining your gastrointestinal tract from oesophagus to rectum. Its main role is controlling digestion, from swallowing to the release of enzym...es that break down food to the control of blood flow that helps with nutrient absorption to elimination. However the ENS may trigger big emotional shifts experienced by people coping with IBS and functional bowel problems such as constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, pain and stomach upset. Researchers are finding evidence that irritation in the gastrointestinal system may send signals to the central nervous system that trigger mood changes. This may explain why a higher-than-normal percentage of people with IBS and functional bowel problems develop depression and anxiety.
