Article: "Gut microbiome implicated in healthy aging and longevity"

Post by OzSport »

Check out this article discussing how gut microbiome plays an important part in longevity:

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2 ... 142758.htm

The paragraph that stood out for me was this one:

This analysis highlights the fact that the adult gut microbiome continues to develop with advanced age in healthy individuals, but not in unhealthy ones, and that microbiome compositions associated with health in early-to-mid adulthood may not be compatible with health in late adulthood.

To me, that paragraph solidifies the concept of health and wellness being a lifestyle and not a fad -- consistency is key!
