How does the intestine affect our aging? A new study shows that the microbiome could reveal the biological age more accurately than the pass.
Bacteria living in people's intestines could provide important clues about the speed with which the body ages, according to a new study by researchers from the University of Hawaii. Scientists have discovered that certain intestinal microorganisms are associated with slower biological aging, while others occur more frequently in people whose bodies show signs of accelerated aging.
The secret to slower aging may be hiding in your gut
The secret to aging more slowly may be hiding in your gut. Scientists discovered that certain gut bacteria are strongly linked to how quickly the body ages, with microbial differences accounting for about 15% of the variation in biological aging rates. Some bacterial species were associated with slower aging, while others were linked to accelerated aging.
Researchers at the University of Hawaii in Mānoa, United States, found that certain intestinal bacteria are associated with the rate of biological aging. The study, published on October 27, 2026 in Scientific Reports, concluded that differences in the bacterial communities of the intestine explain about 15% of the variation in the rates of aging observed [...] The content Intestinal bacteria can help explain the rate of biological aging appears …
Scientists are increasingly studying the connection between the gut microbiome and how the body ages. Recent research suggests that the composition of gut bacteria may be linked to the rate of biological aging. Microorganisms that live in the digestive system affect food processing, immune system function, and […]
The composition of the gut microbiome can influence the rate of biological aging by fifteen percent, according to recent research.
