The Gut Microbiome's Role in Immunity
The gut microbiome serves as a critical first line of defense for the immune system, functioning not just within the digestive tract but also in safeguarding overall health. The gut barrier, a layer of cells that separates the intestinal contents from the bloodstream, is equally important; maintaining its integrity is essential to prevent pathogens from entering the body. Disruptions to the gut microbiome, such as those caused by antibiotics, can increase the risk of infections and compromise the immune response. Strengthening the gut barrier through nutrient-rich foods, particularly fiber from various plant sources, is fundamental in supporting overall immune function.
