Ocimum gratissimum extract reduced colorectal cancer (CRC) tumor load. Continuous administration was more effective than separated administration. OGE also reduced severe colitis, suggesting potential for preventing CRC by inhibiting inflammation.
Three different fruit juices were fermented and tested on human fecal bacteria. Results showed that fermented fruit juice increased production of beneficial short-chain fatty acids and regulated the structure of the gut microbiota. This suggests that fermented fruit juice could improve overall gut health.
Feeding Bacillus subtilis (BS) and Macleaya cordata extract (MCE) to dairy cows increased dry matter intake and milk production, while reducing methane emissions. This study uses metagenomics to understand their impact on rumen methanogenesis.
Peiminine, derived from Fritillaria imperialis, reduces inflammation in an experimental model of ulcerative colitis by decreasing inflammatory markers and gene expression. It shows potential as a therapeutic option for managing ulcerative colitis.
