- More about Microbiome-Gut-Brain Axis: Implications on Health
The book highlights the importance of prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics in the gut-brain axis, regulating gastrointestinal functions, cognitive behavior, and immunological functions. It describes probiotic microorganisms and non-digestible oligosaccharides (prebiotics) that provide health benefits.

Publisher: Springer Verlag, Singapore
The significance of prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics in the intricate communication system between the gut microbiota and the brain, also known as the gut-brain axis, is emphasized throughout the book. A stable gut microbiota is crucial for maintaining normal gut physiology and overall health, as it plays a vital role in facilitating proper signaling along the brain-gut axis.
The book delves into the fascinating cross-talk between the gut microbiota and the brain, revealing how it not only regulates gastrointestinal functions but also ensures the proper functioning of cognitive behavior and immune systems. The various chapters provide detailed descriptions of probiotic microorganisms that colonize the gastrointestinal tract, offering a wide range of health benefits to the host. Furthermore, it explores the role of non-digestible oligosaccharides (prebiotics) in the gut, highlighting their ability to be fermented by specialized microbes, resulting in the production of health-promoting metabolites and the suppression of pathogenic bacteria.
This comprehensive book is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and scientists specializing in microbiology, food science, and nutrition. It also serves as a valuable guide for industry experts involved in the development of nutraceuticals. By unraveling the complexities of the gut-brain axis, the book sheds light on the potential for personalized nutrition and gut health interventions to improve overall well-being.
