During aging, there is a physiological decline, an increase of morbidity and mortality, and a natural change in the gut microbiome. In this study, we investigated the influence of the gut microbiome on different metabolic parameters in adult and aged mice.

hi @ymedan! I just took a look at your teams research and I think its amazing the work you all are doing by looking at probiotics and their potential to allow people and animals to live healthier.

Do you recommend any foods to keep your microbiomes healthy? Also I was curious how envision your research being used on a broader scale outside of the mice models?

Thanks. Use unprocessed food/ingredients, preferably organic.
