[Story] Infant gut microbes including Actinobacteria and Bifidobacterium linked to improved social attention tests, suggesting a role for the microbiome in early cognitive development.
The gut-brain axis is a complex communication system that links the gut microbial community, digestive system, and nervous system. A new study shows that the gut-brain axis plays a critical role in brain development. Infants demonstrating specific patterns of enhanced brain activity, such as rhythmic processing, exhibited unique gut microbial populations and metabolic processes. Researchers collected fecal samples from 56 infants between the ages of four and six months and analyzed their microbial composition through metagenomic sequencing. They evaluated the infants' brain activities while li... brain gut microbiome development
