Piles of ancient poop reveal ‘extinction event’ in human gut bacteria

Running For Research - PWS

I want to share this brief news story about ancient human gut bacteria. It seems as if about 38% of the ancient gut microbiome has bacteria in it that no longer exist. Could this bacterial extinction make modern humans more prone to some of the common diseases( heart disease, obesity and diabetes) we suffer from today? Scientists think this is a strong possibility.
