Prospective Comparative Study of an Oral Synbiotic and a Myoinositol-Based Herbal Supplement in Modifying Hormone Levels and the Gut Microbiome in Non-cystic Acne

mycolabadmin

This study tested two supplements for treating non-cystic acne: one containing probiotics and herbs, and another based on myoinositol and medicinal plants. Both supplements significantly reduced acne lesions and improved gut health by increasing beneficial bacteria and beneficial fatty acids produced by these bacteria. The myoinositol-based supplement also reduced hormone precursors related to acne development. These findings suggest that supporting gut health may be an effective way to treat acne.

Sex-Specific Associations Between Prebiotic Supplement Intake and Sarcopenia Risk: Evidence From NHANES

mycolabadmin

This study examined whether taking prebiotic supplements helps prevent sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) differently in men versus women using health data from thousands of Americans. Researchers found that women who consumed prebiotics had significantly lower rates of sarcopenia, while this benefit was not observed in men. These findings suggest that prebiotic supplements may be particularly beneficial for women’s muscle health, though more research is needed to understand why this sex difference exists.

Nutraceutical supplement slim reshaped colon histomorphology and reduces Mucispirillum schaedleri in obese mice

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested a supplement called Slim containing natural compounds like berberine, coenzyme Q10, and beet pulp on obese mice. After 4 weeks, the supplement improved cholesterol and triglyceride levels, increased beneficial gut bacteria, and strengthened the intestinal barrier. The results suggest this combination of natural ingredients works together synergistically to improve gut health and metabolic function in obesity.

Enrichment of Artemia With Synbiotic and Its Effects on Growth Nutrient Utilization Survival and Gut Microbial Communities of Larval Hybrid Catfish (Clarias microstomus × Clarias gariepinus)

mycolabadmin

This study shows that enriching brine shrimp (Artemia) with beneficial bacteria and prebiotic fiber significantly improves growth and health in young catfish. The enriched shrimp were fed to catfish larvae for two weeks, resulting in better weight gain, faster growth rates, and more efficient feed conversion. The beneficial bacteria successfully colonized the fish’s gut and promoted a healthier microbiota, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to antibiotics in fish farming.

Potential Roles of Exogenous Proteases and Lipases as Prebiotics

mycolabadmin

This review explores how digestive enzymes like proteases and lipases work similarly to prebiotics—foods that feed beneficial bacteria in your gut. When animals consumed supplements of these enzymes, their gut bacteria became healthier, producing more beneficial compounds and showing improved intestinal health. These findings suggest that fermented foods and raw foods containing natural digestive enzymes, as well as enzyme supplements, may help promote a healthy gut microbiome.
