ImpactModerate impact

The mentions of potential therapeutic benefits and links to disease understanding imply a recognition of moderate impact.

Abstract in brief

  • Intermittent fasting (IF) helps reduce the severity and brain damage in a multiple sclerosis (MS) animal model by increasing beneficial gut bacteria like Lactobacillaceae and Prevotellaceae, and boosting microbial pathways that fight oxidation.
  • IF changes immune cell populations in the gut, decreasing pro-inflammatory IL17-producing T cells and increasing regulatory T cells, which can help control autoimmune responses.
  • Transferring gut bacteria from fasting mice to others improves MS symptoms in mice, and a small clinical trial suggests similar beneficial changes in gut flora and blood markers in MS patients, indicating that IF’s positive effects are partly due to gut microbiome alterations.]

Multiple sclerosis is more common in western countries and diet might be a potential contributing factor. In mice and humans, intermittent fasting has been shown to confer protection in CNS via the gut microbiota via @CellPressNews https://t.co/x7Ai2Urckr

Intermittent fasting confers protection in CNS autoimmunity by altering the gut microbiota. #MultipleSclerosis I wonder if #Keto and #IF impacts on MS (at least partially) through Gut Microbiome (and gut driven changes to circulating IL-17) https://t.co/XmSZp8qUO8
