Bidirectional Link Between Exercise and the Gut Microbiota
Belle Huang, Liping Zhao, Sara C. Campbell
Abstract
Exercise is well known to exert beneficial changes to the gut microbiota. An emerging area is how the gut microbiota may regulate exercise tolerance. This review will summarize the current evidence on how exercise influences gut microbial communities, with emphasis on how disruptions or depletion of an intact gut microbiota impacts exercise tolerance as well as future directions.
