Beneficial Microbiome Modulation from Baby Poo Derived Probiotic Cocktail

Researchers have discovered a surprising place for inspiration to develop new probiotic compounds—infant feces. No, you did not misread the end of the previous sentence. Investigators at Wake Forest School of Medicine have developed a probiotic cocktail derived from gut bacteria strains found in infant feces that may help increase the body's ability to produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Findings from the new study were released today in Scientific Reports through an article entitled
