Thanks all

Jeez seen the price of those probiotics NHE? $186.95 for 30 sachets.

That was just over 7 weeks ago. Instead of the memory test, you could quote my prior message.

Decoding the Gut Microbiota in Multiple Sclerosis Using Nanopore Long-Read Sequencing: Insights into Disease Severity and Subtypes
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40679698/

..Progressive MS was characterized by an abundance of pro-inflammatory bacteria (e.g., Enterococcus faecium and Romboutsia timonensis) and a depletion of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing species (Ruminococcus bromii and Faecalibacterium duncaniae), potentially contributing to heightened neuroinflammation and disease progression. Relapsing MS exhibited microbial shifts indicative of immune dysregulation, including increased Clostridium saudiense and decreased levels of the gut-protective Faecalibacterium butyricigenerans. Functional analysis linked these microbial alterations to oxidative stress, neurotransmitter imbalance, and suppressed lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. ..
