At the heart of this discussion lies the gut microbiome — a vast and dynamic community of microorganisms that plays a crucial role in digestion, immunity, metabolism, and even brain function (1,2). Emerging research highlights that diet is one of the most powerful modulators of the gut microbiome, influencing both microbial composition and health outcomes (1). However, modern lifestyle...

Pancreatic cancer is a lethal cancer that stands as the sixth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Despite advances in medicine, its five-year survival rate remains approximately 10%, largely due to diagnoses at late-stages and the lack of effective screening strategies (1). Even when detected, pancreatic cancer is difficult to treat. As result, researchers are working hard to develop more effective treatments that can improve patient outcomes. Current Treatment Options Treatment...
