Alloscardovia is a genus of anaerobic, Gram-positive bacteria in the family Bifidobacteriaceae (phylum Actinobacteria). The primary species is A. omnicolens, which colonizes the human urogenital tract. In the WikiBiome vault, Alloscardovia appears exclusively in endomet…
lead (Pb) has no safe level of exposure. Unlike most dietary metals, lead does not play any known biological role — every atom absorbed represents toxic burden. While environmental lead exposure (paint, soil, air) has decreased dramatically since leaded gasoline phase-o…

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome affecting 2-4% of the global population Heidari et al. 2017, characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, cognitive dysfunction ("fibro fog"), and sleep disturbances. Conventionally attributed to central sensiti…

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the periodontal tissues (gingiva, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone) driven by a dysbiotic polymicrobial biofilm in the subgingival pocket. The keystone pathogen is porphyromonas gingivalis, whose zinc-dependent gingi…
A Gram-negative, obligate anaerobic genus with the keystone pathogen P. gingivalis at its center. Named for its porphyrin (heme) requirement, Porphyromonas is the prototypical periodontal pathogen and one of the most important organisms connecting oral health to systemi…
A Gram-negative obligate anaerobe and keystone pathogen of the oral microbiome that causes chronic periodontitis and is increasingly implicated in systemic diseases including alzheimers disease and cardiovascular disease. P. gingivalis virulence is fundamentally depende…
Fish is the primary dietary source of methylmercury (MeHg) -- a potent neurotoxin that crosses the blood-brain barrier, depletes glutathione, and can increase amyloid-beta production and tau phosphorylation mercury. MeHg is 95-100% absorbed in the intestinal tract. An e…
