Overview

Systematic review shows exercise enhances gut microbiota diversity in athletes, indicating benefits for performance.

Key Points

  • This review aims to demonstrate the influence of physical activity on gut microbiota diversity and its implications for health and performance.
  • Analyzed studies from 1997 to 2026 from PubMed and Google Scholar.
  • Evaluated the relationship between physical activity and gut microbiota composition.
  • Investigated both positive and negative effects of exercise on intestinal health.
  • Regular physical activity increases gut microbiota diversity and abundance of beneficial bacteria.
  • Improvements are linked to better intestinal function and athletic performance.
  • High-intensity or prolonged exercise may lead to impaired intestinal integrity and dysbiosis.
