Study suggests that gut fungi are not associated with Parkinson’s disease: Although the bacterial microbiome is strongly connected to PD and gut dysfunction is nearly universal in this disease – Science Daily

The bacterial gut microbiome is strongly associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD), but no studies had previously investigated he role of fungi in the gut. In this novel study published in the Journal of Parkinson’s Disease, a team of investigators at the University of British Columbia examined whether the fungal constituents of the gut microbiome are associated with PD.
