Long-living people consistently have higher abundance of bacterial species linked to reduced risk of conditions like gout, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease, says a new study from China. 

Several species including Eisenbergiella tayi, Methanobrevibacter smithii, Hungatella hathewayi, and Desulfovibrio fairfieldensis were consistently enriched in the gut microbiota of long-lived individuals compared to younger elderly and young adults across multiple cohorts. Additionally, Alistipes and Akkermansia muciniphila were consistently enriched in the gut microbiota of long-lived individuals. Further analyses suggest their potential causal relationships with longevity. These findings reveal longevity-associated gut microbial signatures and help further understand the role of microbiota in regulating longevity and aging.
