      Basically the study found that previous research on TMA’s (which are abundous in animal protein) saying they’re harmful to humans, may actually be wrong, and that they’re in fact beneficial to our health. (edit 2: due to rapid bilophia production in the microbiome, which converts it to DMA?)

      I’m not a microbiologist though, and I hope someone with background could expand this into an ELI5.

      Edit: If you scroll down on the page, you can find a figure (FIG 1) which gives a more easy to understand view on the study and the impacts animal proteins were found to have.
