Characteristics of Intestinal Bacteria and Their Effects on Growth and Immune Function in Children at High Altitude

Microbes and the human body maintain a complex relationship of interaction and influence. Different regions, altitudes, and dietary habits have different degrees of influence on the composition of children's intestinal flora. Therefore, the development and maturation process of children's intestinal flora in plateau areas was discovered, and its relationship with children's immunity, metabolism, and growth was understood. The mechanism of action of children's intestinal flora on immunity, growth and development was further analyzed by comparing it with people in low-altitude areas, to provide a scientific basis for improving children's health in plateau areas.
