In conclusion, the examination of the GBA can aid in understanding the etiology and development of NDs, which may benefit the improvement of clinical treatments for these disorders and ND interventions. This review indicates existing knowledge about the involvement of microbiota present in the gut in NDs and potential treatment options. The Aging of the Enteric Nervous System https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/07/the-aging-of-the-enteric-nervous-system/ The enteric nervous system is the nervous system of the intestines, and likely an important part of the relationship between the gut microbiome and the brain. One of the more interesting parts of this review paper is the discussion regarding relationships between the gut microbiome and enteric nervous system. All too little is known in detail, even while it is possible to find reports of specific associations and points of communication between gut microbiome and nervous system. Given the attention to measuring and altering the balance of populations in the gut microbiome, one might hope that the advent of ways to sizeably and favorably adjust the gut microbiome will meaningfully improve late life health. The gut and the brain communicate via the nervous system, hormones, microbiota-mediated substances, and the immune system. These intricate interactions have led to the term "gut-brain axis". Unlike the brain-which is somewhat protected-the gut is exposed to a variety of factors throughout ...
