Like a superhero protecting a city, sodium butyrate comes to the rescue in Parkinson’s disease by improving gut function and motor deficits. The complex relationship between sodium butyrate and gut microbiota-gut-brain communication is still being explored, but early research suggests that sodium butyrate regulates the composition of gut microbiota, promotes the production of beneficial short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and restores GLP-1 levels in the colon, serum, and substantia nigra. This regulation of gut microbiota dysbiosis could be the key to relieving gut dysfunction and motor deficits in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. But don’t just take my word for it – dive into the fascinating research behind sodium butyrate’s potential as a therapeutic intervention for PD!
