Quick takeaways

Exercise has a significant impact on the gut microbiota and can enhance athletic performance and metabolic health.

The gut microbiota and the human host have a symbiotic relationship that is crucial for maintaining intestinal health and overall well-being.

Probiotics, including food-based sources, can potentially benefit exercise enthusiasts by reducing the risk of upper respiratory tract infections and promoting a healthy gut microbiota.

Exercise and Gut Microbes

Exercise has a significant impact on the gut microbiota. Studies have shown that individuals who exercise regularly have a unique gut microbiota compared to sedentary individuals. The microbes in the gut play a role in mediating the effects of exercise on various pathways in the body, including mitochondrial biogenesis and exercise capacity. It has been found that a complete and healthy gut microbiota is necessary for optimal exercise performance. However, more research is needed to fully understand the specific microbial communities influenced by exercise and their impact on overall health.
