Abstract
Diet may significantly influence gut microbiota composition and its effects on neurological health.
- The gut-brain axis connects gut microbiota to the central nervous system and may play a role in neurological disorders.
- Different diets, including Western, Mediterranean, and Ketogenic, can alter microbial diversity and metabolic byproducts.
- Dietary patterns influence the production of neuroactive compounds produced by gut microbes.
- Changes in gut microbiota due to diet may affect neuroimmune signaling pathways.
- Preclinical evidence suggests specific dietary components could have neuroprotective effects.
