Fibromyalgia is associated with alterations in the gut microbiota
It has been observed that people suffering from fibromyalgia have alterations in their gut microbiota.
Fibromyalgia is known as a disorder that is difficult to diagnose and lacks effective treatment. It is described by a set of diverse symptoms such as chronic pain, sleep and cognitive disturbances, and physical exhaustion, which can significantly impair the quality of life of those who suffer from it.
Studies conducted with fibromyalgia patients revealed alterations in the composition of their gut microbiota, with significant differences in some bacterial species compared to the microbiota of control participants. The study confirmed that these observed alterations were more closely related to fibromyalgia than to any other innate or environmental variable.
According to the results obtained in this study and in others related to the fundamental role of the intestinal microbiota in a wide variety of pathologies, a great advance is observed in the knowledge of the pathophysiology of fibromyalgia, its diagnosis and the development of novel and more effective treatments aimed at the regeneration of the intestinal microbiota.
