"An international team of scientists, co-led by researchers at the University of Florida and Trinity College Dublin, has cracked a decades-old mystery in human biology: how our bodies absorb a micronutrient that we rely on for everything from healthy brain function to cancer defense.

Queuosine - pronounced "cue-o-scene" - is a vitamin-like micronutrient that we can't make ourselves but can only get from food and our gut bacteria. It's vital to our health, yet its importance went unnoticed for decades."

I think most people that consume a healthy diet that includes meat , dairy and grain have plenty of queusine in their gut bacteria. The articles focus seems to be more like a how it works rather than a why it works. To me it seems like click bait, lol.

I was trying to save you!

Another interesting piece of molecular biology. Unfortunately, the paper is behind a paywall.
