Butyrate for Gut Health
- Consider experimenting with butyrate to support gut health, even if some studies show no benefit.
- It is an inexpensive intervention, and other data suggests potential benefits.
H. Pylori and IBS Risk
- H. pylori infection may increase IBS-D risk, but not IBS in general.
- This might be linked to H. pylori's association with a 'dirtier' environment and improved immune training.
H. Pylori and Barrett's Esophagitis
- H. pylori, specifically the CagA subtype, might protect against Barrett's Esophagitis.
- This challenges the idea that H. pylori always increases stomach acid, suggesting a more complex interaction.
