Megamonas Details: NCBI 158846, gram-negative or unknown [genus]

| Megamonas| Megamonas Shah and Collins 1983

1. Normal Gut Microbiota:

   • Megamonas is part of the normal microbial community in the human gut. It is considered a commensal bacterium, meaning it generally coexists with the human host without causing harm. The gut microbiota plays a crucial role in various physiological functions, including digestion, nutrient absorption, and immune system modulation.

2. Fermentation:

   • Like many bacteria in the gut, Megamonas species are involved in the fermentation of dietary fibers and complex carbohydrates. This process contributes to the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which can have beneficial effects on gut health.

3. Limited Pathogenicity:

   • Megamonas species are generally regarded as non-pathogenic and do not have a reputation for causing infections in healthy individuals. They are considered a normal and beneficial component of the gut microbiome.

4. Association with Diet:

   • The abundance and composition of Megamonas in the gut can be influenced by dietary factors. Changes in diet, especially shifts in fiber intake, may impact the relative abundance of Megamonas and other bacterial species in the gut.

5. Role in Metabolism:

   • Studies have suggested that Megamonas species may play a role in metabolism, including the fermentation of complex carbohydrates and the production of metabolites that may influence host physiology.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Megamonas

• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 1.95 Standard Deviation to Mean + 1.95 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples and are in percentage
