A review on the recent advances in the effects of exogenous substances in food on gut microbiota

Gut microbiota is a large number of microorganisms closely related to human and animal health.The changes in the microbiota under different conditions directly reflect the health status of the host.As the main factor affecting the microbiota,the daily diet has attracted increasingly attention.Related studies have shown that in addition to the main endogenous components in food that interfere with the gut microbiota of human and other animals,other types of exogenous substances(e.g.,food additives,food condiments,and harmful chemicals produced in various food processing)can also cause changes in the gut microbiota.This paper systematically summarizes the recent advances in the effects of the exogenous substances,i.e.,food additives,food condiments,and food processing by-products,on gut microbiota.We further reviewed the changes of gut microbiota under the dietary intervention and the dietary habit adjustment from the perspective of weight loss,emphasizing the importance of a healthy diet and the weight loss method of balanced nutrition.Our study provided significant guidance for the investigation of gut microbiota in the field of a daily diet.
