As previously noted, the gut microbiota may also regulate brain function via modulation of tryptophan, an essential dietary amino acid, which is metabolized in the gut, and can cross the blood - brain barrier to contribute to the synthesis of serotonin (5 - hydroxytryptamine; 5 - HT).

Impairment of the highly specific nutrient uptake processes, or compromised GI barrier function (as in «leaky gut syndrome») can result from a number of causes including: low gastric acid production, chronic maldigestion, food allergen impact on bowel absorptive surfaces, bacterial overgrowth or imbalances (dysbiosis); pathogenic bacteria, yeast or parasites and related toxic irritants, and the use of NSAID's and antibiotics.
