Pseudoflavonifractor spp.

Optimal Result: 420000 – 130000000 CFU/g stool.

Small group made up of two species: Pseudoflavonifractor capillosus and Pseudoflavonifractor phocaeensis.

Pseudoflavonifractor spp. has been positively associated with weight loss.

Study participants who succeeded in losing weight consistently had a Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Roseburia spp., which are favored at a microbiota enriched in Pseudoflavonifractor at baseline.
