A recent study in Nature finds significant shifts in the gut microbiome of post-menopausal women on severe calorie restriction concomitant with weight loss. Microbiota transplantation to germ-free mice display a similar weight loss, along with a bloom in C. difficile, unlocking clues to microbial metabolic alteration in weight loss.

热量限制是否会为致病菌的微生物群做好准备？

《自然》杂志最近的一项研究发现，在体重减轻的同时，严格限制卡路里摄入的绝经后妇女的肠道微生物组发生了显着变化。将微生物群移植到无菌小鼠身上也显示出类似的体重减轻，同时艰难梭菌大量繁殖，揭示了体重减轻中微生物代谢改变的线索。
