Scientists find your gut is significantly different from hunter-gatherer communities and the difference starts to emerge as early as six months since birth. Click the link to read more about it.
, researchers analyzed the gut microbiome composition of infants born in hunter gatherer communities and industrial nations and found differences in colonial composition of gut microbiome.
“For the first few months, the gut microbiome composition of the babies from both the societies — hunter gatherer and industrial — have somewhat of a similar composition,” says Aashish Jha, co-author of the new study and microbiologist at New York University Abu Dhabi. Traditional microbiology techniques involve analyzing bacteria one at a time, which is not efficient for the complexity of the gut microbiome.That’s why Olm and colleagues employed metagenomic sequencing in which, “you just take a poop sample and extract all DNA from it,” Olm says.
“In western countries you have consumption of formula-based compounds that don't have the same human milk oligosaccharides thatwould like to eat,” Olm says. And mothers have a great influence, not only when the baby is in a womb but throughout subsequent growing months and years after birth.
