Resum
Diet is critical in maintaining optimal immune function. Extensive research has demonstrated the immunomodulatory properties of particular nutrients. In this regard, some dietary components are able to modulate the immune response by interacting directly with the mucosal and systemic immune cells, activating receptors (e.g., vitamins) or changing membrane properties or modulating gene expression (e.g., fatty acids). However, some nutrients may influence immune function indirectly, after being metabolized by the microbiota, either by generating new active components (e.g., polyphenol metabolites, short-chain fatty acids derived from fiber) or just by shaping microbial composition and functionality (e.g., probiotics and prebiotics), which in turn, will affect the immune response. The impact of these components is not only located at the intestine, where the first contact nutrients-host takes place, but can be extended to the systemic compartment and linked to other organic systems.
