3 Diet, Microbiome and Health: Past, Present & Future Cindy D. Davis OFFICE OF DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS 7 Outline 1.What is the microbiome? 2.What is the evidence that diet can influence the microbiome? 3.How can the microbiome influence the response to dietary components? 4.What is the relationship between diet, the microbiome and disease risk? The Human Microbiome We are a composite of species: eukaryotic, bacterial, viralup to 10x more microbial cells than human Gut Microbiota= microbes in our GI tract, ~100 trillion organisms Microbiome= their collective genome, >100 times as many genes as human genome 3

4 What Do Microbes Do For Us? Provide ability to harvest nutrients Produce additional energy otherwise inaccessible to the host Produce vitamins Metabolize carcinogens Prevent colonization by pathogens Assist in the development of a mature immune system Development of the Microbiome Rautava S. et al., Nat. Rev. Gastroenterol. Hepatol. 9: , 2012 Human Intestinal Microbiota over the Lifespan Dominguez Bello M.G. et al. Gastronenterology 14): , 2011 Kostic et al. Genes and Development 27: ,

5 NIH Human Microbiome Project ( ) Phase 1: Survey of the microbiome in humans Who s there? Healthy cohort study Is there a core microbiome? Clinically healthy 300 male/female y.o. 5 major body regions (18 body sites) Up to 3 visits in 2 yrs No antibiotics, probiotics, immunomodulators Microbiome associated conditions Skin: eczema, psoriasis, acne GI/oral: esophageal adenocarcinoma, necrotizing enterocolitis, pediatric IBS, ulcerative colitis, Crohn s Disease Urogenital: bacterial vaginosis, circumcision, sexual histories Demonstration Projects In healthy American adults, the microbial community composition in each part of the body is unique. PCoA2 (4.4%) PCoA1 (13%) For each person, est. 1,000 bacterial species and 2,000,000 bacterial genes. Total pool, est. 10,000 species and 8,000,000 genes. However, genetic potential of each microbiome is less variable Human Microbiome Project Consortium, Nature 486: , 2012 Human Microbiome Project ( ) Phase 2: Integrative HMP ihmp what are they doing? Biological properties of both the microbiome and the host microbial composition & multi omics (i.e., transcripts, proteins & metabolites) from microbiome and host longitudinal cohort studies integrated datasets as a community resource Exemplar microbiome associated human conditions: Dynamics of Pregnancy and Preterm Birth: Vaginal & gut microbiomes and host (mother, infant) properties Dynamics of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Onset: GI microbiome and host properties Dynamics of Type 2 Diabetes Onset: GI & nasal microbiomes and host properties 5

6 Dietary Modulation of Gut Microbiota Probiotics: foods or dietary supplements that contain live bacteria Prebiotics: nondigestible food ingredient, which selectively stimulates the growth of gut bacteria Synbiotics: combination of a probiotic with a prebiotic Other factors: tea, cocoa, wine polyphenols, spices 6

7 Probiotics WHO Definition: Live microorganisms that when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host Microbial Probiotic Species Probiotics are live microbes that can be formulated into many different products, such as food, drugs, or dietary supplements. Examples: Lactobacillus Bifidobacterium Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) E. coli Bacillus Fermented Foods & Beverages Typically do not contain live cultures due to heat treatment, filtration or food processing to improve shelf life hence, not true probiotics: Sourdough bread Fermented meat Sauerkraut Wine & beer Vinegar 7

8 Other Fermented Food Sources Acidophilus milk Sour cream Cottage cheese with active culture Miso (fermented soybean paste) Tempeh (fermented soybean) Live & Active Cultures Fermented dairy products Some yogurts Some natural cheese Buttermilk Kefir Cultures may or may not be considered probiotic, depending on bacteria levels when eaten & whether bacteria have been shown to confer health benefits. Other Differences Matter Dose: How much are you eating or taking? Companies do not have to indicate the amount on the package. Survival: Is the probiotic dead by the time you eat it? The product may have contained a suitable number of live bacteria when manufactured but the consumer doesn t know if it is available at the end of the product s shelf life. 8

9 Top Dietary Supplements by U.S. Sales Top Supplements 2014 (NBJ Supplement Business Report 2015) $Million %Growth Multivitamins 5, B Vitamins 1, Probiotics 1, Calcium 1, Fish/Animal oils 1, Vitamin C 1, Vitamin D Glucosamine/Chondroitin Magnesium Mechanisms of Probiotic Action O Toole and Cooney, Interdisciplinary Persp. Infect. Diseases 2008 Continuous Probiotic Exposure Increases Longevity in Mice 10 month female ICR mice fed a chow diet and gavaged with Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis LKM512 or vehicle daily for 11 months Matsumoto et al. PloS One 6:e23652,

10 Proposed Health Effects of Probiotics Conclusions Probiotics to Improve Health Effects are strain specific Intervention descriptions are lacking Safety is underreported and understudied Evidence for efficacy is inconclusive, but promising As any proof of causality requires clinical intervention studies in humans in different populations, rigorous and detailed documentation will enhance reproducibility and circumvent confusion Science of probiotics is still in its infancy Probiotics Practice Applications What we know: 1. There s preliminary evidence that some probiotics are helpful preventing diarrhea caused by infections and antibiotics, improving symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome 2. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved any probiotics for preventing or treating any health problem 3. Probiotic supplements should contain at least 1 billion live cells/gram 4. The supplement is probably better if it has multiple types or strains of bacteria 5. If people are generally healthy, probiotics have a good safety record. However, there have been reports linking probiotics to severe health effects, such as dangerous infections, in people with weakened immune systems What we don t know: 1. Which probiotics are helpful and which are not not all probiotics have the same effect 2. How much of the probiotic people should take 3. Who would most likely benefit from taking probiotics 10

19 Can Your Microbiome Tell You What to Eat?

20 Practice Applications 1. Microbiome research is an emerging area of science and there are many research opportunities available. 2. The microbiome is integral to human physiology, maintenance of health and development of disease. 3. There is a two sided relationship between diet and the microbiome. 4. Dietitians need to actively stay informed about advances in this field. Cindy D. Davis davisci@mail.nih.gov 20
