The Role of Gut Microbiome in Obesity and Weight Management: A Review of Current Evidence and Future Directions

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
The gut microbiome is critical in controlling host metabolism and body weight. Gut microbial composition and functionality are regulated by external factors such as diet, exercise, medications, and surgical procedures. The microbiome, in turn, affects energy balance, fat storage, and metabolic processes, leading to the development of obesity and weight
