Abstract
Blastocystis, once targeted as a harmful intestinal parasite, is now seen as potentially beneficial. Piperni et al. link its presence to improved gut health, higher microbial diversity, and favorable cardiometabolic outcomes, which suggests that Blastocystis might indicate a healthy diet and gut, possibly serving as a symbiont rather than a pathogen.
