One Health is a concept which described the health not only of humans, but also of the envionment and animals. Our Guest, Dr Yogandree Ramsamy tells us about its origins, who governs the principles and how it can be applied to antimicrobial resistance and everyday clinical practice. About our Guest: Dr Yogandree Ramsamy, a medical doctor with a specialization in medical microbiology (MBChB, MMedPath (Microbiology), FCPath(SA)(Microbiology), PhD), is currently a Senior Pathologist in Medical Microbiology at JDJ Diagnostics. As a recipient of the One Health AMR Fellowship from the Université Paris Cité and Fondation Mérieux, the Institut Mérieux-ICAN Young Investigator Award in antimicrobial resistance (AMR), the L'Oreal-UNESCO for Women in Science Award and the SEDRIC-Wellcome Trust Travel Scholarship, Dr Ramsamy is extremely passionate about AMR and implementation of antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs). Currently a member of several local and international committees related to Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) and Infection Prevention and Control, Dr Ramsamy is committed to the fight against AMR. She has served on the provincial KZN Antimicrobial Stewardship (AMS) Committee, promoting the concept of AMR and AMS within the KZN public health sector in line with the South African National AMR Strategy. Her Master's focused on AMR, AMS and surveillance in the South African landscape and her PhD entailed investigating Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) in a One Health context. She is a honorary research fellow in the Antimicrobial Research Unit at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. Her keen research interest in AMR, AMS and AMR surveillance has culminated in original research generating several publications + local and international conference presentations. Creating awareness of a bleak future without the prospects of lifesaving antimicrobials, mentoring up and coming individuals equally passionate about saving antimicrobials for future generations is one of her greatest ambitions.You can find Yogandree at:yogandree@gmail.comRamsamyy@ukzn.ac.zayogandree@jdj.co.za linkedin.com/in/yogandree-ramsamy-16a74a86Visit the Microbe Mail website to sign up for updates E-mail: mail.microbe@gmail.comYouTube: Microbe MailInstagram: Microbe_Mail

This time on the ‘Gluten Free RN’ podcast, Nadine explores the connection between gluten intolerance and antibiotic-resistant threats. Because damaged intestines compromise the immune system, undiagnosed celiac patients are more likely to develop infections that necessitate antibiotics.  Nadine summarizes the 2013 CDC report, Antibiotic Resistance Threats in the United States, explaining the three microorganisms identified in the report with a Threat Level of Urgent. Listen and learn how to protect yourself and your family from the public health threat posed by these bacteria!  What’s Discussed:  The prevalence of undiagnosed celiac disease and gluten intolerance 30-50% of the population carry the HLA-DQ2 and/or DQ8 genes The importance of healthy intestinal tissue 70-90% of the immune system is in your intestines The soldier analogy Healthy villi are like rested soldiers with loaded weapons on a clear day who can easily take out antigens that don’t belong Damaged villi are like soldiers on a bender with inadequate weaponry, operating in smoke and fire – they either don’t work at all or fire randomly at antigens The need for a more judicious approach to prescribing antibiotics Overuse of antibiotics wipes out good microbiome along with bad How to rebuild microbiome Kombucha High-quality probiotics Fermented foods Apple cider vinegar The need for IgA and IgG testing to complement a celiac panel The public health threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacteria The 2013 CDC report details 2 million illnesses and 23,000 deaths yearly The connection between damaged intestines and a higher risk of bacterial infection requiring antibiotics The three microorganisms with a Threat Level of Urgent Clostridium difficile (causes profuse diarrhea, 14,000 deaths/year) Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (50% fatal, 600 deaths/year) Neisseria gonorrhoeae The causes of inflammation in your intestines Gluten Dairy Sugar Why Nadine has concerns about the potential pandemic and huge loss of life presented by large numbers of undiagnosed celiac patients who are susceptible to bacterial infections  Resources Mentioned:   CDC Report: Antibiotic Resistance Threats in the United States, 2013 Enterolab Website Cyrex Laboratories Website PubMed Connect with Nadine:  Instagram Facebook Contact via Email Books by Nadine: Dough Nation: A Nurse's Memoir of Celiac Disease from Missed Diagnosis to Food and Health Activism
