flag A University of Cambridge study links the gut bacterium Bifidobacterium breve to healthier pregnancies in mice, showing it supports fetal development and placental hormone production, reducing risks like growth restriction and fetal loss. flag The findings, published in the Journal of Translational Medicine, suggest the maternal gut microbiome may directly influence placental function, offering potential new pathways for preventing complications like preeclampsia and gestational diabetes through microbiome-targeted interventions such as probiotics. flag Further research is needed to confirm these effects in humans.
