Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are circulating metabolites generated by gut microbiota. Recently, a link between age-related muscle loss and gut microbiota has been described, and SCFAs could play a mediating role in this relationship. Acetic, propionic, and butyric acid are the abundant forms and are considered to have health benefits, less is known about valeric and caproic acid. In a cross-sectional study including 155 healthy volunteers, we investigated the relationship between muscle area...
