Effect of voluntary exercise upon the metabolic syndrome and gut microbiome composition in mice

Abstract The metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that increase an individual's risk of developing diseases. Being physically active throughout life is known to reduce the prevalence and onset of some aspects of the metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, previous studies have demonstrated th...
