Impact of birth weight and postnatal diet on the gut microbiota of young adult guinea pigs

2017-01-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiota is essential to metabolic health, and the prevalence of the Western diet (WD) high in fat and sugar is increasing, with evidence highlighting a negative interaction between the GIT and WD resulting in liver dysfunction. Additionally, an adverse in utero environment such as placental insufficiency resulting in low birth weight (LBW) offspring, contr...
