Abstract

The sulfur microbial diet (SMD), a dietary pattern associated with 43 sulfur-metabolizing bacteria, may influence gut microbiota composition and contribute to aging process through gut-produced hydrogen sulfide (H

Research summary

The paper claims that the sulfur microbial diet may influence gut microbiota composition and biological aging through gut-produced hydrogen sulfide. This research is relevant as it explores dietary patterns that could potentially affect the aging process, addressing a root cause of aging rather than merely treating age-related symptoms.
