Your gut doesn’t stay the same as you age. 🦠 So… what actually changes? In the latest episode of Eating, Interrupted, @CynthiaMcFadden and @MarkPimentelMD dive into how the gut and its microbial ecosystem can change over time, and what those changes may mean for digestive health. From the microbiome to digestion, aging can bring changes that are worth understanding. 🎧 Tune in to Eating, Interrupted and hear the conversation.

🌍 MAST takes the microbiome conversation to Lyon, France. This past weekend, @MarkPimentelMD joined the Microbiome 360 Congress as a keynote speaker, bringing the MAST perspective to one of the major international meetings focused on the human microbiome and digestive health. We’re grateful for the opportunity to participate in a conference bringing together clinicians, researchers, and experts from around the world for clinical training, scientific exchange, and the latest breakthroughs in human microbiome research. From understanding the microbiome to translating that knowledge into better care, these conversations are helping shape what comes next in digestive health. 🇫🇷 Thank you to the Microbiome 360 Congress for inviting Dr. Pimentel and MAST to be part of this important international conversation. #Microbiome360 #Microbiome #GutHealth #DigestiveHealth #Gastroenterology #MicrobiomeResearch #MASTProgram
