- The infant gut microbiota changes significantly during early life, which is crucial for developing the immune system, absorbing nutrients, and metabolic functions.
- Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) like acetate, propionate, and butyrate, produced by gut bacteria from dietary fibers, play vital roles in energy supply, immune regulation, and gut health.
- Disruptions in gut microbiota and SCFA production are linked to various pediatric health issues, highlighting the importance of understanding SCFAs for improving child health and developing targeted therapies.
