Official Title: Development of Sustainable Tomato Products to Improve the Microbiota-gut-brain Axis: From Farm to Fork to Health (MITOS)

Brief Summary: Tomatoes and tomato-based products could play an important role in modulating microbiota-gut-brain axis (MGBA) interactions due to their high content of fiber and phytochemicals.Phytochemical metabolites derived from the consumption of tomato-based products can act directly as neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, crossing the blood-brain barrier, or indirectly by modulating the MGBA.These metabolites can thus alter gut bacterial composition and brain biochemistry.Therefore, researchers propose a new…
