  Author(s): Isabella White*
  
  The human gut microbiota is a complex ecosystem composed of trillions of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and archaea. Among these, certain bacteria play a crucial role in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs, including acetate, propionate, and butyrate, are organic acids with significant implications for human health. This review highlights the importance of SCFA-producing bacteria in the gut microbiota, emphasizing their metabolic activities, interactions with the host, and their potential therapeutic applications...
