The findings suggest that targeting specific gut microbes or their metabolites could boost fat-burning and metabolism in response to specific diets.
Neuroscience
Targeting gut bacteria, their metabolites, or gut-to-brain signaling could offer new strategies to prevent or treat age-related memory decline.
Pediatrics
To better define the role of biotics in infant formula, future studies should be specifically designed to assess infection prevention, with adequate sample sizes, harmonised formulations and long-term follow-up.
