Mind blown. (Stupid holidays, I so want to dig into this article but I have to go celebrate holidays. Would rather stay home and research!!!)
The authors full hypothesis:
Hypothesis: Methanogen Bacteria Are Responsible for Increased Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Associated With Phosphatidylcholine and Its Metabolites (Choline, TMAO)
then there's this...
Proposed therapeutic use of archaea to prevent trimethylaminuria and cardiovascular disease
The first article talks about how methanogen prokaryotes contribute to CVD and the second theorizes they could be used to treat CVD.
Very opposite theories, but I think the if the specific strains were correctly identified (which ones are associated with CVD and which reduce risk of CVD), we would have clarity.
It's a big deal as I have SIBO-C (associated with methane producing archaea) and my boyfriend has Atherosclerosis. My research into these separate (or so I thought) issues is converging.
My research into this started because I'm trying to find something to reduce the achaea in my gut which is possibly causing my relentless constipation. I'm currently researching Squalamine as an 'antibiotic' of sorts to kill or reduce my overgrowth infection.
Hopefully I will get smart enough to fully understand all the biochem talk in these articles while I still have time.
