Summary
New research reveals gut bacteria producing indole may shield the brain by calming inflammation — triggering a two-part defense that starts in the gut and signals the brain to reduce its own inflammatory response. Scientists pinpointed how indole influences immune cells that travel to the brain, quieting damaging microglia. While tested in mice, the mechanism is universal, suggesting diet and probiotics could one day unlock powerful neuroprotective therapies — proving sometimes the most potent solutions are already inside us.
