and the Risk of Developing Alzheimer's
In recent decades, researchers have discovered a surprising link between the health of the gut microbiota and the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. This connection between the gut and the brain, known as the gut-brain axis, is becoming increasingly evident and highlighted in scientific studies.
One of the most recent and significant studies in this field was published in the journal “Nature” in 2023. Researchers examined the link between gut microbiota and cognitive decline, including Alzheimer’s risk, in a large sample of older adults. The results showed that people with a healthy balance of gut microbiota had a significantly lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s than those with an unbalanced microbiota.
But how can the balance of your gut microbiota influence brain health? It appears that gut bacteria can influence inflammation, produce chemicals that affect brain function, and influence gut permeability, allowing harmful substances to enter the bloodstream and reach the brain.
Improving the balance of beneficial bacteria in the gut could be key to preventing and treating neurodegenerative diseases , including Alzheimer's. This can be achieved through a balanced diet rich in fiber and fermented foods, which feed the beneficial bacteria in the gut. Probiotics and prebiotics can also be used to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and restore the balance of the gut microbiota .
