🦠 Could a gut microbe help counter inflammaging?
A fascinating Nature Aging study identifies Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum as a candidate geroprotective species that declines with age. Its metabolite 5-AVAB also falls with aging. In naturally aged mice, probiotic treatment improved intestinal homeostasis, reduced multiorgan inflammaging, enhanced cognitive–motor performance, and extended healthspan; 5-AVAB reproduced several benefits. 🧠💪
🎯 Microbiome → metabolite → inflammaging → healthspan.
Promising biology—but therapeutic evidence remains preclinical. 🔬
