Scientists could be on the verge of a medical breakthrough in understanding what's driving a rise in blood cancers among older adults.
Research has long suggested that the colony of trillions of bacteria living in our digestive systems – known as the gut microbiome – could be the key to our overall health.
The more diverse those microscopic colonies are, the better our immunity to a host of diseases from heart disease to dementia.
But US researchers have now discovered that patients with leukemia — an aggressive form of blood cancer — have higher levels of one specific bacteria in their guts.
Known medically as ADP-heptose, the bacterial sugar has previously been linked to diets high in processed foods and sugar, and low in fibre, fruit and veg.
The tests on mice showed that molecules, produced by ADP-heptose, may help accelerate the growth of pre-cancerous blood cells.
Dr Daniel Starczynowski, director of the advanced leukemia therapies at Cincinnati Children's Hospital in Ohio and study co-author, said: 'This study significantly advances our understanding about how blood cancers develop and progress, especially in older adults.
'The exciting news is that we also may have a way to intervene early — before these pre-cancer cells evolve into more aggressive disease.
'We look forward to conducting further studies to pursue this new approach.'
Dr Puneet Agarwal, associate staff scientist at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and study lead author, added: 'Taking care of your gut could be more important than ever.'
In the study, the researchers tracked blood cells in mice to see how they acquire mutations.
They found early-stage pre-cancerous cells dramatically grew when exposed to ADP-heptose from the gut bacteria.
This was mainly found among older mice but also among young mice who had poor gut health.

It always fascinates me that these same “studies” always go in one dietary direction while Pooh-poohujg other studies that show that the approved “healthy” diet causes just as many other issues.
Hah! So diversity IS our strength after all! Democrats are thrilled down to their diseased bones.
So avoid processed foods, avoid sugar, and eat more fruit and vegetables.
Who knew!? They keep coming up with new recommendations all the time!
Let me save you the time, effort, and expense.
Covid Jabs.
“Scientists discover new *CAUSE* of cancer that hits 10,000 Britons every year - diet mistake could be to blame”
“US researchers have now discovered that patients with leukemia — an aggressive form of blood cancer — have higher levels of one specific bacteria in their guts.”
correlation is NOT causation ...
yet another click-baity article from the Daily Mail ...
Diet mistake? No, the first obvious cause would be to ask how many injected the dangerous mRNA into their bodies.
“ For the last three years, a “Worldwide Embalmer Blood Clot Survey” has been uncovering what mortuary workers are finding in the bodies they are preparing for burial. Retired Airforce Major Tom Haviland took this upon himself after news of all the gruesome material that was being reportedly pulled out of the veins and arteries of these bodies.
Now, there is a new discovery, and that is these fibrous clots, caused by CV19 vax injections, are showing up to be contagious or infectious. Haviland explains, “I surveyed embalmers all around the world in the United States, Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand. In my latest survey at the end of 2024, 301 embalmers did respond.
Out of 250 of them, or 83%, said they are still seeing the unusual white fibrous clots in the veins and arteries of their corpses. These are people with 20 and 30 years of experience, and they say they have never seen these clots before until the last four years since the rollout of the CV19 vaccines. . .

Agreed....but in the medical field, correlation is part of the ‘science’. Almost everything is based on statistical outcome as we just don’t understand how it all works.
Every drug that goes through a ‘double blind trial’ is purely about generating statistics of outcomes. If there’s a strong statistical correlation it’ll be judged on those merits.
Butter is bad...oops, butter is good, ...eggs are bad, oops...
There must be some truth in eating healthy.
I smoke and drink and I’m 74.
My doctor told me he hasn’t ever seen me before.
I told him he was mistaken, I saw him 17 years ago.
When I told him I eat anything I want, when I want and as much as I want.
He said “How are you still alive?”
But I read all the health news on FreeRepublic.
Two years ago I figured I’d try Turmeric thinking it was just a spice, how can it hurt?
It tastes terrible but I feel great. No more bad knees, no more feeling like I had arthritis.
About the same time I had gradually switched from a pasta based diet to a stew diet.
I take any kind of meat and throw in vegetables from my garden.
I was bitten by a brown recluse spider on my finger 7 weeks ago.
I was prescribed an antibiotic that my wife says is what she took for a bladder infection.
It didn’t do anything for my finger but I don’t have to run to the bathroom anymore.
So now I take a half spoonful of Turmeric and dip it in yogurt once a day.
I couldn’t do anything in the yard for 5 weeks due to the spider bite.
My finger looked like a barbecued chicken leg.
I’ve got an acre of property and I have to do weed abatement before fire season.
The weeds are waist high. But I wake up every morning with no back pain.
You’re lucky you didn’t lose that finger.
A co-worker where I used to work was bitten on the finger just as you were, while moving some trash in an unused hangar.
He lost his finger...............
I saw two DEI doctors a week apart. I told them I had a spider bite on my nostril and finger.
I must have thought the spider was a mustache hair and brushed it off.
They gave me a topical ointment for my nose and the pill for my finger.
I had told them my finger had a pimple sized spider bite so I popped it open with my pocket knife.
They were certain that my stainless steel pocket knife was the cause for the infection.
So when I got home I Googled spider bites and sure enough, the brown recluse bite looked like mine.
The topical ointment worked so well on my nose that I started putting it on my finger.
Then I saw a nurse that knew what she was doing and she told me to keep putting the ointment on my finger.
Kinda like arterial swelling disease is caused by bacteria — which are aided by the stupidity of enriching foods with iron.
Make your own sauerkraut and other assorted fermented veggies. Super easy and works wonders on the gut.
New!
I have long thought that a healthy gut biome is essential to preventing many diseases and antibiotics kill many essential gut biomes.
Good info. I was taking about 1.5-2g of turmeric powder daily as well as 600mg of curcumin from turmeric. After a year I began to get nose bleeds and recalled an article that said turmeric is like a blood thinner and can cause nosebleeds. So I’ve cut back to 500mg and the nosebleeds have stopped.
More precisely, the spikes shedding from skin cells of 'vaccination' victims.
Beans on toast will do that to you...
