April 26 (UPI) -- A study by Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health has identified a link between imbalanced gut microbiome and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Researchers at the Center for Infection and Immunity at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health conducted the study, which showed abnormal levels of specific gut bacteria related to chronic fatigue syndrome with or without irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS. Roughly 90 percent of chronic fatigue syndrome patients also have IBS.
