The Ameliorative Effect of Short-Chain Fatty Acids Synthesized by Gut Microbiota on Exercise Per-formance
Short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs)are produced by the gut microbiota through the fer-mentation of dietary fibers,which include acetic acid,propionic acid,and butyric acid.These SCFAs regulate various physiological functions in the body,such as immune,metabolic,and neurological functions,and are considered key factors affecting host health.SCFAs contribute to promoting lactate metabolism,increasing glycogen storage,and improving intestinal barrier function,thereby enhancing exercise performance.However,different types of SCFAs exhibit variations in their mechanisms of action and effects.This review discusses how SCFAs synthe-sized by the gut microbiota influence exercise performance and the underlying mechanisms,provi-ding new insights and directions for the use of SCFAs derived from the gut microbiota to improve exercise performance.
