A few weeks ago, our Immunoendocrinology Group had the pleasure of receiving the visit of Dr. Lucimara Mach Cortes Cordeiro from the Universidade Federal do Paraná (Curitiba, Brazil). Dr. Cortes Cordeiro's research is focus on carbohydrate chemistry, with a particular focus on the structural elucidation and biological activity of complex polysaccharides—prebiotics, dietary carbohydrates, and dietary fibers—found in tropical fruits and foods. 🌱🍍 This visit was a fantastic opportunity to connect with another expert in the functional foods field, discussing about exciting collaborations on the health-enhancing effects of complex carbohydrate structures. It’s always inspiring to exchange ideas and strengthen ties within the scientific community! 💡🤝 We’re grateful for the stimulating discussions and insights Dr. Cortes Cordeiro shared with us, and we look forward to the possibilities ahead! #CarbohydrateChemistry #Polysaccharides #Prebiotics #DietaryFibers #HealthScience #Collaboration #Immunoendocrinology

First principle thoughts about medicine: an olive grove perspective. 🧠 A number of years ago I started a personal longevity project in Greece, with the goal of immersing myself in the real-world study of the Mediterranean culture and ultimately producing a medicinal grade, high-phenolic extra virgin olive oil. Beyond the transformation of my family's nutrition, work on the olive grove has also provided an amazing context for simply thinking - and thinking simply! Here, nature forces you to think about issues from a First Principle perspective. Originally popularized by Aristotle, "First principles Thinking" tells us to break down complex problems into their fundamental truths - a strategy that has been used by some of the greatest innovators of our day. But from within the olive grove it strikes me that there is one simple medical truth that is often overlooked today: That is => All small molecule drugs on the market today are simply bioactive compounds. Bioactive molecules are those which interact with biological systems, producing specific functional effects - effects which can be therapeutic if applied in the right disease context. Now, apply that same logic to food/plants. Food is packed with complex mixtures of bioactive compounds, naturally designed by plants to protect and sustain life. If bioactives in pharmaceuticals can cure disease, why wouldn't bioactives in food have the same potential? Here’s where first principles thinking leads us: the boundary between medicine and food may be artificial. The real innovation is in recognizing that diseases could be treated through food (i.e. foodable), if we can unlock the precise bioactive compounds responsible for specific biological effects. This requires a leap in metabolomics innovation to map and understand these components at a molecular level. With the sun powering the creation of millions of natural bioactive compounds, nature’s pharmacy is clearly boundless. If bioactive compounds from plants have already shaped the future of medicine (e.g the discovery of aspirin), isn’t it logical that rationally-designed food-based therapies could be the next great innovation leap? I'm convinced so - but we will need to up the invest into transforming the capabilities of metabolomics to provide more efficient and comprehensive profiling of both food and patient - a kind of "Sun-shot" program!🌿 #FirstPrinciples #Bioactives #FoodAsMedicine #Metabolomics #Innovation #NaturalPharmacy #NextHorizon

🦠Exciting scientific update! A new in-vitro study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Beneficial Microbes, confirms the targeted delivery of vitamin B2 to the colon in the form of Humiome® B2, an environmentally-friendly, food-grade multi-unit particle system (MUPS). The research, led by dsm-firmenich scientists Robert E. Steinert, Ruedi Duss, Elger Funda, Ateequr Rehman and Mick Watson, showed that: • 90% of Humiome® B2—the first ever biotic vitamin—was released in the colon • Targeted delivery was achieved with a sustainable food-grade system that aligns with the European Commission’s new microplastic restrictions • Humiome® B2 had a positive effect on microbiome composition in the colon The paper confirmed the dual-layered Humiome® B2 prevents premature absorption in the upper GI tract, delivering vitamin B2 directly to the colon in a controlled manner. This demonstrates the potential of Humiome® B2 in Health from the Gut solutions and sets the stage for future clinical research. 👉🏻 Read the full paper here: https://bit.ly/3V4jPsr #HealthfromtheGut #Prebiotics #DietarySupplements #Microbiome

Vitamin B2 has a particularly important role in the colon supporting the diverstity of our microbiome. However it can be delivered to the colon only by using the targeted delivery formulation. Deficiency of the vitamin B2 is reported in certain health conditions affecting the gut health. Humiome B2 opens so many possibilities for boosting further research in microbiome-targeted therapies.
