Journal ArticleDOI

The Gut Microbiome, Aging, and Longevity: A Systematic Review.

TL;DR: Differences in taxonomic composition and functional potential varied across studies, but Akkermansia was most consistently reported to be relatively more abundant with aging, whereas Faecalibacterium, Bacteroidaceae, and Lachnospiraceae were relatively reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
