Some of the most salient works so far regarding the brain-gut axis are mentioned below. The current knowledge on the impact of gut microbiota on nervous system diseases is far from being directly used for pharmacologic or nutritional advice toward restoration of normal bodily functions. It seems that a more comprehensive approach should be followed so that the individual effect of each kind of intervention on the patient’s somatic or psychological status is determined. Future research must address global need for regimens which could re-establish normal composition of gut microorganisms after each neuropsychological disorder. M3 10.32598/bcn.2021.3220.1 ER -
