Pulsed Ultrasound Alters the Gut Microbiome to Improve Muscle Function (opens in new tab)

The composition of the gut microbiome changes in detrimental ways with age, leading to increased production of inflammatory metabolites and reduced production of beneficial metabolites. There is ample evidence for this to contribute to aspects of aging. Rejuvenation of the composition of the gut microbiome via various approaches has been shown in animal studies to improve health and extend life span. A human trial has started for fecal microbiota transplantation from young donors to old patie...
