Abstract

This study investigates the intricate interplay between the gut microbiome, diet, and environment in relation to neuropsychiatric disorders, with a particular focus on depression and anxiety. Adopting a qualitative methodology, an investigation was carried out based mainly on a systematic review, offering a detailed overview of the connection between these components. The findings emphasize the direct influence of the microbiome on the pathophysiology of these disorders, highlighting its crucial role in mental health and underlining the complexity of this interactive system. It is revealed how the composition of the microbiome is directly affected by diet, playing a significant role in the mental well-being of individuals. These results not only highlight the urgency of more integrated and comprehensive research to address current gaps in knowledge, but also point to the pressing need to develop more specific and effective therapeutic and preventive approaches to address neuropsychiatric disorders from a holistic point of view. and multidisciplinary.
