This vital hormone is significantly modulated by the gut-liver axis, where the fermentation of prebiotic fibers by beneficial bacteria produces Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs) like butyrate. These SCFAs act as signaling molecules and epigenetic regulators that stimulate the liver and pituitary gland to increase IGF-1 production, effectively linking a healthy microbiome to the body&#8217;s
