Abstract:
Obesity is a significant global health issue, with rising incidence influenced by genetics and environment. Recent studies link obesity to the gut microbiota, suggesting a crucial interaction between our microbiome and this condition. Managing gut microbiota is emerging as a novel approach to treating obesity, yet the intricate relationships among genetics, environment, and microbiota in obesity are not fully deciphered. This review aims to highlight gut microbiota characteristics in obesity and its mechanisms, offering insights for targeted interventions. It discusses the influence of genetic and environmental factors on microbiota and obesity. Additionally, it underscores the potential of modifying gut microbiota as a therapeutic strategy, considering its challenges and prospects. The review concludes with future research directions, advocating integrated approaches combining genetic, microbial, and environmental factors for effective obesity management.
