Medicine Insights, 2024, vol. 1, issue 4, 1-7

Abstract: The gut microbiome has emerged as a critical component in regulating the immune system and maintaining overall health. This review examines the intricate relationship between gut microbiota and the immune system, highlighting the mechanisms through which gut microbes influence immune responses and disease prevention. Additionally, the review explores the impact of diet, antibiotics, and probiotics on the gut microbiome and its subsequent effects on immune health. Understanding these interactions provides insights into potential therapeutic strategies for preventing and treating immune-related diseases.
