Antioxidant, Immunomodulating, and Microbial-Modulating Activities of the Sustainable and Ecofriendly Spirulina

Figure 1

Microbial-modulating activities of Spirulina could prevent dysbiosis. The antibacterial activity of Spirulina could protect the host by infections. Changes in microbiota composition are commonly associated with several several diseases including inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and metabolic and immunological diseases. Alterations of gut microbial composition also result in changes in the metabolites generated in the gut from microbial activity, essential for a correct gut homeoastasis. Spirulina intake may favour a restabilishment of correct microbial balance by promoting probiotic species growth.
