Probiotics, innate immunity & ageing (PRIMAGE)
Introduction: Ageing has often been associated with a marked reduction in numbers of bifidobacteria and an increase in numbers of clostridia. In addition, ageing is associated with alterations in immunity and poor response to vaccination. Pre- and probiotics are suggested to restore the gut micro fl...
