The composition of gut microbiota in a new-born baby's gut has been linked to the rate of early infant growth, reports research published this week in iPLOS Computational Biology/i. The findings support the assertion that the early development of "microbiota" - the body's microbial ecosystem - in an infant can influence growth and thereby the likelihood of obesity. The sterile gut of a new-born baby is quickly populated by a variety of different microbes. This ...Sunday, 12 May 2013
