New poop, new you?

As you age, your brain speed will slow down

Sean Gibbons, a gut microbiology researcher at the Institute of Systems Biology, said that the scope of the data collected in this study is "trick

The bacteria in our gut affect everything about us, from our daily emotions to our overall health

To test whether the young microbiota can reverse the signs of aging, the researchers took stool samples from 3 to 4 month old mice (equivalent to young adult mice) and transplanted them to 20 month old mice.

The first thing the research team noticed was that the gut microbiota of the old mice given the microbes to the young mice began to resemble that of the young mice

The brain has also changed

John Klein, a neuroscientist at University College Cork who led the new research, said: "It's like.

However, some of the old mice fed the feces of young mice did not change significantly

Arya Biragyn, a molecular biologist at the National Institute on Aging in the United States, said that he hopes the research team can do more to prove that the microbiota in old mice does occur.

Gibbons also pointed out that the field of mouse fecal transplantation is still a complex field

Considering that this research is based entirely on rodents, Kryin himself is also cautious about turning his research subjects to humans prematurely
