Hunter-gatherer gut microbes change with seasons, researchers say
New study adds to the evidence that diet is a major factor in determining the composition and variety of the microbes that live in our guts.
Researchers studying traditional hunter-gatherer societies had already known that they have much more diverse microbiomes — the collection of bacteria that live in our guts — than those of people living in industrialized societies.
But this week, researchers reported a new discovery:
