Causal Links Between Gut Microbiota and Vitamin Deficiencies: Evidence from Mendelian Randomization Analysis
Our findings reveal a possible causal relationship between specific gut microbiota characteristics and vitamin A, B12 and D deficiencies, providing a theoretical basis for addressing these nutritional deficiencies through the modulation of the gut microbiota in the future and laying the groundwork for related interventions.
