Deep dives
Martha Carlin's Research on Parkinson’s Microbiome
Martha Carlin's journey into the gut microbiome realm began with her husband's Parkinson's diagnosis. Research revealed a connection between gut bacteria types and Parkinson's subtypes. Dysbiosis in the gut was evident in Parkinson's patients, with specific markers like mycobacteria species and implications linked to dairy consumption. Martha's Bio Collective delves into the microbiomes of various disease states.
Benefits of Mannitol in Parkinson's Treatment
Martha's innovative approach with mannitol showed promising results in addressing Parkinson's symptoms. Mannitol halted protein aggregation, aiding in the microbiome's healthy transformation. The compound contributed to microbiome recovery, reducing insulin resistance and potentially combating neurodegenerative processes.
