The bacteria in your gut make molecules your body cannot make on its own. They reach the brain, shape how you handle sugar, recycle hormones and help keep your immune cells young. As we age, the species and metabolic networks that make them dwindle.
Tap a part of the body to see what the gut does for it.
Gut signals help guard the blood–brain barrier and calm the brain's immune cells.

What your gut bacteria do with carbohydrates is linked to how the body handles sugar and insulin.
Gut bacteria recycle estrogen and help regulate its level after menopause.
Butyrate, a fatty acid made in the gut, holds back senescence in aged immune cells (lab and mouse studies).
In mice, a young gut community rejuvenated aged blood stem cells.
One gut hormone became a blockbuster drug. Your gut and its bacteria make a whole catalog of signals.
With age, the species and metabolic networks in the gut that make these signals dwindle. Eating well is the floor, and nobody should skip fiber, protein and plants. But a perfect diet feeds only the bacteria that are still there.
Trilliome develops plant-derived actives that wake up the bacteria that have gone quiet in the gut people already carry. We don't add to the gut. We switch it back on.
Our work spans three areas of healthy aging:
Occasional updates on the platform, the evidence, and the category — for formulators, partners, and investors.
