1. Introduction Gut microbiota modulate host energy balance, immune function, and endocrine signaling through the synthesis of short‑chain fatty acids—acetate, propionate, and butyrate. Epidemiological studies link altered SCFA profiles to obesity, type‑2 diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease, underscoring the therapeutic potential of modulating SCFA production via diet or microbiome‐directed interventions (1–3)...
