Article Synopsis
- Caloric restriction, particularly a very-low-calorie diet, positively alters the gut microbiota and enhances metabolic health by reducing body fat and improving glucose tolerance.
- Research involved transplanting gut microbiota from an obese female before and after caloric restriction into germ-free mice, revealing significant differences in microbiota diversity and composition.
- Findings suggest that changes in the gut microbiome due to caloric restriction can also impact immune function, potentially delaying age-related immune decline and offering new avenues for treating metabolic diseases.
