Did you know that we have more bacterial DNA than human DNA in our bodies. This is because our guts contain trillions of bacteria and are now being thought of as another organ of the body.
Join us this week as we discuss the Gut Microbiome (part 1 of 2) and its importance on drugs like immunotherapy response in cancer.
We talk to none other than the excellent Professor Monty Pal from The City of Hope Hospital in California.
Monty is an internationally respected kidney cancer expert and has been researching the impact of the gut microbiome on cancer outcomes in recent years.
We discuss;
The potential impact of fibre in our diet - any how much that looks like in Wheetabix.
The need for balanced good versus bad bacteria in our guts.
That probiotics are not recommended.
The challenges of a faecal microbiome transplant.
What a great episode!!
