腸腦失衡可能會造成的疾病

2023-02-25

當腸道微生物和腦神經系統之間的『腸-腦軸線』發生失衡時,會對人們的健康產生影響。以下是一些與腸道微生物和腦神經系統關聯的案例:

  1. 憂鬱症:腸道微生物失衡,可能導致血清素等神經傳遞物質的產生不足,進而影響情緒和心理狀態。註1, 2,3

  2. 自閉症:腸道微生物失衡可能影響腸道屏障的穩定性,導致腸內毒素進入血液循環系統,進而影響神經系統的發育。 註 4,5,6

  3. 飲食失調:飲食不良可能導致腸道微生物失衡,進而影響大腦中的神經傳遞物質的產生,例如血清素和多巴胺等。註 7,8,9

  4. 失眠:腸道微生物失衡可能影響褪黑激素的產生,進而影響睡眠。註 10,11,12

總的來說,腸道微生物和腦神經系統之間的『腸-腦軸線』是一個復雜的系統,可以影響許多方面的健康,包括情緒、行為、認知和消化系統等。
