Background: Research heavily suggests that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), vital for neuronal growth and plasticity, and cholecystokinin (CCK), a satiety hormone that regulates BDNF levels, are altered in Alzheimer's Disease pathophysiology. Factors such as dysbiosis of gut microbiota and poor food habits may affect CCK and BDNF release and brain function. The objective is to evaluate the effects of dietary habits, gut microbiota, and exercise on BDNF and CCK release in Alzheimer's Disease patients.
