Abstract

The gut microbiota is an ecosystem including all bacterial species that permanently colonize the gastro intestinal tract and a large number of other microorganisms from the environment. These millions of microorganisms may be unbalanced by a number of external and internal factors. The aim of this review is to summarize recent findings on animal and human studies on the effect of dietary and geographical provenance on gut microbiota-composition. It includes results on the influence of dietary products , type of diet (e.g. vegetarian and omnivorous subgroups), and geographic areas, as well as differences between populations within the same area. In animal models, most results showed contradictory effects on modulation of the intestinal microbiota within the same phylum, while in human studies, dietary products, such as fat, are often reported as being associated with an increase in Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria species and a decrease in those in the Firmicutes and Proteobacteria phylum. The results of different studies showed that the omnivorous group has a higher diversity of bacteria compared to vegetarians. Gut microbiota composition differs widely between different areas and between different ethnic groups within the same area. However, a higher diversity of bacteria species was encountered in the African population. The conclusions highlight that gut microbiota composition differs according to diet and eating habits which are closely correlated to geographical location suggesting therefore, the need for more in-depth research, looking at ethnic diversity and eating habits.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
