Research progress on diet influencing gut microbiota to improve inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a chronic disease that is influenced by a variety of factors,including genetics,environment and gut microbiota.In recent years,with the gradual deepening of IBD understanding,it has been discovered that changes in the gut microenvironment may play indispensable roles in the pathogenesis and treatment of IBD.A large number of studies have shown that controlling diet may affect the gut microen-vironment,such as the composition of the gut microbiota.Therefore,the idea of alleviating IBD by diet regulating gut microbiota has become a promising new therapeutic strategy.This paper reviews the effects of different diet patterns and dietary components on the gut microbiota of IBD patients,analyzes the regulatory mechanism of diet intervention on the gut microbiota of IBD patients,and looks forward to the feasibility of preventing or improving IBD through dietary regulation.
