Good Idea: Eat more Kimchi

https://www.dongascience.com/en/news/76761

Kimchi probiotic promotes the excretion of nanoplastics from the gut:
Kimchi's lactic acid bacteria (Leuconostoc mesenteroides CBA3656) have been found to bind with nanoplastics in the gut.
An animal study showed that nanoplastic content in feces more than doubled in mice given these specific bacteria, suggesting enhanced excretion.
The findings, published in 'Bioresource Technology', highlight the potential of fermented food microbes in tackling plastic pollution's health impact.

The one thing to watch: kimchi is salty, and a review of sixty studies linked high consumption of pickled, salt-fermented foods to increased stomach cancer risk, especially in combination with H. pylori infection. Keep it as a flavorful side dish rather than a main course, watch your overall sodium, and eat plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit alongside it. Research found that fresh produce is associated with an 85% reduction in stomach cancer odds. The balance is the whole point. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-role-of-kimchi-and-h-pylori-in-stomach-cancer/

@newsfeed Probiotics increased populations of guf bacteria which might alleviate some Long COVID:

a distinct and statistically significant probiotic-responsive functional signature was identified exclusively in long COVID participants. Predicted enriched pathways were predominantly related to microbial energy metabolism, including redox balance and quinone biosynthesis, indicating potential enhancement of microbial respiratory capacity and energetic efficiency

and people with LC responded to probiotics much more than COVID-19 recovered people without LC:

likely reflects persistent microbial and metabolic perturbations and greater ecological plasticity in long COVID, consistent with previous reports of sustained dysbiosis in this condition. In contrast, the limited response observed at the overall cohort level suggests that individuals without persistent symptoms may have a more stable and less responsive microbial community, in line with evidence of microbial recovery following SARS-CoV-2 infection
