A question was ask – are there significant gender differences with ME/CFS. A partial answer is possible from our citizen science data (Available here). The number of bacteria identify as statistical drops because we are reducing sample sizes. The table below shows the shifts that are seen in common with P < 0.01.

A reader that does microbiome analysis of her ME/CFS daughter ‘s microbiome using Microbiome Prescription expert system sent me this note with some literature. Your wonderful system recommended beta-glucans [also written β-Glucan] for my daughter,  and when I looked further, I found this. I’m trying her on them for a month-, after testing her for reactions for three days- the first week has been hopeful. Will keep you posted if you wish. Reader β-Glucan is a nonstarch polysaccharide having documented health benefits and industrial applications. It can be extracted from various ..read more

This is a guest post. I have occasionally had Nicotine show up in microbiome prescription suggestions. I have tended to skip it because that usually implies smoking -- not a healthy choice. A person recently share their recovery story (below - as written by them) using Nicotine Patches, not smoking. It is an interesting aspect that I had not considered before.

After I posted List of Bacteria significant for ME/CFS from the shared samples uploaded to Microbiome Prescription, several readers asked “How do I use this”. This took me a few days to come up with, code and implement an answer. I wanted this to go beyond just ME/CFS because there is a huge variety of symptoms and co-morbidity seen with ME/CFS. After testing and tuning the algorithm, I am pleased with the current results. The process is show below. The Steps First get a suitable microbiome test done (See this list of supported tests) Transfer or upload your results to Microbiome Prescr ..read more
