Key features that distinguish Brittle Type 1 Diabetes from stable T1D

Brittle Type 1 Diabetes (BT1D) is listed by the National Institutes of Health as a rare disease impacting some 4500 people in the USA. It is defined as a severe instability of blood glucose (BG) levels, whatever its cause, with frequent and unpredictable episodes of hypoglycemia (low) and or hyperglycemia (high sugars) that disrupts quality of life.

BetterYou Turmeric Spray ensures superior absorption for health benefits

To benefit from turmeric, it needs to be taken in a form that is easily absorbed by the body. Due to its hydrophobic nature, which causes molecules to clump together when coming in to contact with water in the gut, the key is to bypass the digestive system and absorb straight into the bloodstream.

Study offers novel insights into how genetic variants play key role in human immune system

It is widely recognized that people respond differently to infections. This can partially be explained by genetics, shows a new study published today in Nature Communications by an international collaboration of researchers from Germany and the United States.

Biomedical scientist receives $1.83 million NIH grant for inflammatory bowel disease research

A biomedical scientist at the University of California, Riverside has received a $1.83 million grant to identify how the loss of a protective barrier in the intestine contributes to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Mango intake exerts beneficial effects in progression and severity of IBD

Initial results of a study by researchers in the department of nutrition and food science at Texas A&M University in College Station show mango consumption has a positive impact on people with inflammatory bowel disease.

Infections during infancy linked to greater risk for celiac disease

Infections during infancy are associated with increased risk for gluten intolerance (celiac disease) later on. Apparently the risk is particularly high in the case of repeated gastrointestinal infections in the first year of life.

Phase 1 clinical studies reveal safety, tolerability of therapeutic vaccine in celiac disease patients

ImmusanT, Inc., a clinical-stage company developing Nexvax2, a therapeutic vaccine intended to protect against the effects of gluten exposure while maintaining a gluten-free diet in HLA-DQ2.5+ patients with celiac disease, today announced the publication of positive data from two Phase 1 clinical trials of Nexvax2 in celiac disease.

Enzyme supplement can potentially reduce uncomfortable symptoms in gluten-sensitive patients

Researchers have found that taking an enzyme tablet while consuming foods containing gluten prevents a significant amount of it from entering the small intestine.

Study reveals gluten diet is not connected with heart disease among non-celiac people

The study findings published online in the British Medical Journal today reveal that the intake of a long-term gluten diet is not connected with coronary heart disease among people without celiac disease.

Study finds no link between gluten intake and heart disease risk in people without celiac disease

A study of more than 100,000 men and women revealed that dietary gluten is not associated with heart disease risk in people without celiac disease. The findings also suggest that limiting whole grains as part of a low-gluten diet may increase the risk of heart disease in people who do not have celiac disease.

Study highlights risk factors for widespread vitamin D deficiency

Results from a clinical review published in The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association find nearly 1 billion people worldwide may have deficient or insufficient levels of vitamin D due to chronic disease and inadequate sun exposure related to sunscreen use.

Are your bowel symptoms serious?

Very common – most of us will experience bowel symptoms from time to time, but usually the symptoms last only a few days. You should see your GP if they persist for more than three weeks (sooner if they are severe) or if your symptoms keep coming back.

MGH researchers provide direct link between ‘leaky gut’ and chronic inflammatory disease

With the help of genetically engineered mice, scientists at the Massachusetts General Hospital are moving closer to establishing the role that increased intestinal permeability, sometimes called a "leaky gut," plays in chronic inflammatory conditions.

UC Riverside professor receives grant to explore therapeutic target for treating IBD patients

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine that includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. A protective protein that plays a key role in this disease is "T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase" or TCPTP.

Infection with reovirus could be key initiating event for developing celiac disease, study suggests

Infection with reovirus, a common but otherwise harmless virus, can trigger the immune system response to gluten that leads to celiac disease, according to new research from the University of Chicago and the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
