Article Synopsis
- The human microbiota can affect health, and imbalances in it may contribute to neurological disorders like Alzheimer's and ALS.
- A specific probiotic strain, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HA-114, has shown potential in protecting against neurodegeneration in models of ALS and Huntington's disease.
- This protective effect is linked to its fatty acid content and requires certain metabolic proteins, suggesting that improving lipid metabolism through this probiotic could help manage neurodegenerative conditions.
