This post delves into the fascinating realm of skincare microbiome research, exploring the impact of prebiotic and probiotic-enriched skincare products on skin health. Through a comprehensive multi-omic approach, the article uncovers the intricate interplay between the skin's microbiome, metabolome, and clinical outcomes. The study's design, methodologies, and compelling results are presented, shedding light on the potential benefits of these products for improving skin hydration and overall skin health. Join us on this scientific journey as we decipher the intricate relationship between skincare, microbes, and radiant skin.
With growing awareness that what we put in and on our bodies affects our health and wellbeing, little is still known about the impact of textiles on the human skin. Athletic wear often uses silver threading to improve hygiene, but little is known about its effect on the body’s largest organ. In this study, we investigated the impact of such clothing on the skin’s chemistry and microbiome.
This study focused on addressing the challenge of incomplete digestion of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) in preterm infants due to the absence of specialized gut microbes. The objective was to evaluate the impact of B. infantis EVC001, a microbe capable of converting complex oligosaccharides in human milk into usable compounds, on gut function and nutrition in preterm infants.
