The gut microbiome could be considered as ‘the conductor of health’, orchestrating with organs and systems in the human body, via different axes, to maintain homeostasis and optimal health. The gut is connected to many parts of the body from the brain to the immune system. These resources cover the many connections that exist between the gut and various systems around the body.
This resource explains the relationship between the gut microbiota and immune system, known as the gut-immune axis. An overview of the gut microbiota and immune system is provided before diving into the gut-immune axis, outlining the pathways of communication and how to support the body’s defence system, with a particular focus on dietary approaches.
This resource explains the relationship between the gut microbiome and body metabolism, known as the gut-metabolism axis. An overview of the gut microbiome and human metabolism is provided before explaining the role of microbial-mediated gut hormones on metabolic processes, and how to support metabolism with a particular focus on dietary approaches.
This resource explains the relationship between the gut microbiota and brain, known as the gut-brain axis. An overview of the gut microbiota and brain is provided before diving into the gut-brain axis, outlining the pathways of communication and how to support the gut-brain axis, with a particular focus on dietary approaches.
