Abstract

Ninety-five percent of gut microbiota are anaerobes and vary according to age and diet. Complex carbohydrates in human milk enhance the growth of Bifidobacterium and Bacteroides in the first year. Complex carbohydrates in solid foods enhance the growth of Bacteroides and Clostridium in the second year. Short-chain fatty acids produced by Akkermansia and Faecalibacterium may reduce obesity, diabetes and IBD.
