Given the complexity of our diets, its really tricky to link a specific food group with specific gut microbiota. @cibiocm.bsky.social & co show that coffee is associated with increased Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus. Coffee can also boost its growth in vitro! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Coffee consumption is associated with the presence and abundance of a specific member of the human gut microbiome, Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus, and changes to the plasma metabolome.
