Study: Nutrition has greater influence on gut microorganisms than defensins
A multitude of variables impacts the makeup of the gut microbiota, including diet and the body's synthesis of the intestinal defence molecule defensins, which was found by researchers at Ume University in Sweden. Instead, scientists determined that these molecules may have a role in preventing blood sugar levels from increasing after ingesting a high-calorie "Western-style diet."
