## Resource

New study reveals gut bacteria like Akkermansia and Faecalibacterium may be linked to Parkinson’s — not causing it, but strongly correlating with its presence. Researchers analyzed over 100 participants, uncovering significant microbiome differences that point to the gut-brain axis playing a key role. This adds scientific weight to the “second brain” theory and could pave the way for future treatments targeting gut health. Scientists now aim to uncover how these microbes interact with the brain — and whether tweaking the gut microbiome might one day help treat Parkinson’s.
