Abstract
This review explores the transformative potential of gut microbiota modulation in sports medicine, where the convergence of advanced technology, rigorous training, and injury management aims to mitigate sports-related injuries. Athletes in high-intensity sports demand exceptional physical prowess, adhering to grueling training regimens for peak fitness levels. However, the pursuit of athletic excellence often leads to exhaustive physical stress and sport-specific injuries. Personalized sports medicine has emerged as an adaptive discipline, utilizing diverse technologies and methods to deliver customized medical care and enhance performance. The gut microbiota, a complex microbial community in the gastrointestinal system, significantly influences energy production, digestion, and immune defense. Similar to personalized sports medicine, the gut microbiota of every individual is unique, shaped by genetics, diet, lifestyle, and environment. Recent research underscores the profound impact of gut microbiota on athletic performance, recovery, and overall health. This review consolidates current knowledge regarding gut microbiota modulation in sports medicine, revealing its potential to revolutionize athlete care and performance enhancement. The uniqueness of our review lies in considering the interplay between gut health and personalized sports medicine, a relatively unexplored area. The study highlights the prospect of tailoring nutritional and training regimens based on the unique gut microbiota profile of every individual, marking a new era in sports medicine. Addressing a significant literature gap, this review emphasizes the importance of gut microbiota modulation in personalized sports medicine—a paradigm shift poised to enhance athletic performance, expedite recovery, and reduce injury risk.
