Household disinfectants could be linked to child obesity

The video discusses a study linking household disinfectants to childhood obesity by affecting gut bacteria. Researchers analyzed stool samples from 757 infants and found that those exposed to antimicrobial disinfectants had higher levels of Lachnospiraceae bacteria, associated with increased body fat. The study did not find this association with eco-friendly cleaners. This suggests a potential link between disinfectant use and being overweight.
