Researchers find that a gut bacterium may influence muscle strength and fitness, opening the door to probiotics that support ...

Grip strength is something people rarely think about until they experience a decline in it. For older adults, loss of grip ...

A new study shows that a high fat diet may weaken the gut barrier and allow bacteria to travel toward the brain through the vagus nerve.

Learn how feeding mice a high-fat diet can weaken their gut barrier, allowing bacteria to enter the brain, which suggests a ...

As mice age, changes in the microorganisms in their guts contribute to cognitive decline by altering signalling between the gut and brain.

The experiment began with a straightforward prediction: microbes from older mice would age young ovaries. But when the ...

If confirmed in people, the finding might lead to gut-targeted therapies that could reverse cognitive decline.
