Hostile Or Unfriendly Flora In The Digestive Tract Found To Be A Prominent Cause Of Obesity
Date: 10th October 2008
According to a revelation, by calculating the amount of gut flora (microorganisms that reside in the digestive tract) in woman over a specific duration of their pregnancy, researchers have strikingly found that absence of this friendly flora in the digestive gland significantly contributes to the storage of excess fat and makes people overweight.
In the tests conducted on women, researchers have evaluated that women having the worst kind of gut flora, accumulated the highest weight during the pregnancy and the women who were overweight before the beginning of their pregnancy had a considerably higher baseline of unfriendly flora.
It has also become apparent that any individual who is overweight and is facing problems in triggering off weight loss is likely to have an imbalanced digestive area. In such a condition, it becomes apparent that the intake of friendly flora or other specific steps for improving digestion is likely to play a vital role in accelerating normal calorie metabolism. However, the results derived from the testing carried out by the researchers’ further throw light on how the risk of falling prey to obesity may be transmitted from mother to child. The first migration of flora takes place from mother to child and hence the child is at a great danger of confronting problems.
