A member asked:
Heard something about gut flora and its role in fat loss. what is it? if it does actually help lose fat, what can be done to get the desired result?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gut microbiota: Many studies have found that altering the gut microbiota can make you fat (if you're lean) or vise versa----if you're a mouse. This line of research is interesting and provocative, but it is not clear how/whether it applies to humans.
