It’s no longer a secret that the trillions of micro-organisms which live in and on US have their tentacles of wisdom in just about every biological processes that we have…
However, I never really made the connection that their day-to-day influence may be one of the major factors which modulates the speed in which we age…
I mean it makes sense when you think about it. They are constantly secreting compounds which influence…
The strength and resilience of the Gut Wall
Hormone Production
Immune Activity / Inflammation
Cellular Respiration
Muscle Protein Synthesis
Cognitive Function
Cravings
And that’s just what we currently know….
Compounds which not only influence moment-to-moment biological function, but biological function over time. The Biological function which ultimately determines how well ones cellular and metabolic self is operating and thus, ones Biological Age, or TRUE AGE on the inside.
All this begs the obvious question… Since we can modulate our Microbiome through lifestyle, does that mean we can indirectly influence our age from within?
Well, this is a question the scientific jury is still out on, and to be honest it may take alittle while. But in the meantime, this new Human Data provides some very interesting hints….
