The sulfur microbial diet and cancer risk
The sulfur microbial diet is associated with increased risk of early-onset colorectal cancer precursors Background & Aims:Diet may contribute to the increasing incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) before age 50 (early-onset CRC). Microbial metabolism of dietary sulfur produces hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gastrointestinal carcinogen that cannot be easily measured at scale. As a result, evidence…

Carbon Monoxide: From Poison to Potential Medicine
Carbon monoxide (CO) is widely known as a toxic gas, capable of causing fatal poisoning by binding to hemoglobin and preventing oxygen transport. However, emerging research has uncovered potential therapeutic applications of CO at low, controlled doses. Studies suggest that CO can exert anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cytoprotective effects, making it a possible candidate for treating…
Glycine: Anti-Inflammatory Micronutrient
In this review, we emphasize that glycine exerts its anti-inflammatory effects throughout the modulation of the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in many cells. Although glycine is a non-essential amino acid, we highlight how dietary glycine supplementation is important in avoiding the development of chronic inflammation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37510995
Agmatine for Parkinson’s Disease:
The Neuroprotective Effects of Agmatine on Parkinson’s Disease: Focus on Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Molecular Mechanisms Agmatine (AGM), a naturally occurring polyamine derived from L-arginine, has shown significant potential for neuroprotection in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) due to its multifaceted biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic effects. … …This review highlights agmatine’s promising therapeutic potential…
