Don't show me that this molecule changed or this gut microbiota changed and what what do I do with that? What why do I care that that gut microbiota changed? Nobody cares about those things intrinsically. We care about them only in so far as if they give us heart attacks or strokes or earlier or later death or greater strength or make us better looking. Right? We want to we care about how long we live, how good we look, how we feel, our strength, what we can do.
