Experiencing financial hardship or other socioeconomic challenges growing up may change the bacteria that live in the gut, new research among Latino and Hispanic adults suggests. The findings could help researchers better understand how some social determinants of health are linked to disease later in life.
In adulthood, less education, lower income and higher financial hardship were associated with lower levels of certain bacteria strains. The findings are considered preliminary until full results are published in a peer-reviewed journal. Batalha noted that some types of bacteria in the gut are harmful, while others are beneficial.
