  3. 1.

  4. 2. Metabolism Regulation • Gut bacteria can impact our metabolic processes, including the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. • An imbalance in the GM can lead to metabolic dysfunction, making it easier to gain weight and harder to lose it. Read More

  5. 2. Appetite Regulation • Some gut bacteria produce hormones and signaling molecules that influence our appetite and satiety. • An imbalance in the GM can disrupt these signals, leading to overeating and weight gain.
