Eslenme ve fiziksel aktivitenin bağırsak mikrobiyotası ile ilişkisi

Abstract

Diet and physical activities are factors that affect the diversity and composition of the intestinal microbiota. Human health is closely related to the balanced relationship between gut microbiota, physical activity and nutrition. It has been reported that the composition of the intestinal microbiota also varies in individuals fed with different diets such as high-carbohydrate diets, high-protein diets, high-fat diets, vegetarian/vegan diet, gluten-free diet and mediterranean diet. Depending on the type of food consumed, dietary components such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, phytochemicals and vitamins have the potential to affect the intestinal microbiota balance positively or negatively. It is reported that a balanced gut microbiota supports the digestion and absorption of nutrients as well as exercise performance and thus contributes to metabolic activities. However, just as with the diet, the composition of the intestinal microbiota can change depending on the intensity and type of exercise. It has been reported that moderate physical activity causes positive changes in the intestinal microbiota, while long and strenuous activities have negative effects on the intestinal microbiota.
