A recent study published in Nature, discusses the role of the gut microbiome in regulating motivation for physical activity. The researchers conducted a series of experiments in mice and found that changes in the composition of the gut microbiome can affect the animals’ motivation to exercise, as well as their physical performance during exercise. They also found that the gut microbiome can influence the brain’s response to physical activity, and that certain bacterial species may be able to modulate the release of neurotransmitters that are involved in motivation and reward. The authors suggest that these findings may have implications for the treatment of conditions that are associated with a lack of motivation for physical activity, such as obesity and depression.
