Interactions of the Gut Microbiome and Exercise in the Context of Muscle Aging Leading to Frailty

From the abstract

Animal studies suggest that the composition and activities of the gut microbiome are as influential on long-term health and the progression of degenerative aging as is the case for lifestyle choices such as degree of physical fitness and level of physical activity. The gut microbiome changes with age: microbial populations delivering harmful metabolites or that otherwise provoke the immune system into a state of chronic inflammation grow in number, while microbial populations delivering benefici
