Which metabolic outcome occurs in herbivores due to microbiome dysbiosis?

💡 Explanation

Dysbiosis disrupts the microbiome's normal fermentation processes, leading to decreased nutrient absorption efficiency because nutrient extraction relies heavily on microbial metabolism. Therefore nutrient uptake sharply declines, rather than improved vitamin K synthesis which requires balanced conditions.
