Exercise and intestinal permeability: another form of exercise-induced hormesis?

Abstract: Regular aerobic exercise has numerous benefits on human physiology, arguably by serving as a hormetic stressor resulting in positive adaptations over time. It has long been known that aerobic exercise at a variety of intensities and durations induces intestinal permeability, which is a feature of many pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract and metabolic diseases. Given the health benefits of exercise, it seems unlikely that intestinal permeability induced by exercise outweighs the positive adaptations. In f… Show more

“…In the context of brain function, exercise can either trigger or prevent neuroinflammation by effects on the gut–brain axis that depend on exercise intensity, frequency, and duration [ 90 ]. Regular moderate exercise supports gut barrier integrity and beneficial gut microbes as well as prevents translocation of LPS into the bloodstream [ 91 , 92 ]. In contrast, excessive exercise compromises the gut barrier and causes gut microbiome dysbiosis [ 91 , 92 ].…”

“…Regular moderate exercise supports gut barrier integrity and beneficial gut microbes as well as prevents translocation of LPS into the bloodstream [ 91 , 92 ]. In contrast, excessive exercise compromises the gut barrier and causes gut microbiome dysbiosis [ 91 , 92 ]. More research is needed to define the threshold for excessive exercise for different types of activities and also in the context of individual differences in genetic background, age, and fitness level.…”

“…Protection of the intestinal barrier may actually be counterproductive to signaling exercise-induced adaptations to bacterial translocation, as tolerance to endotoxin may play a necessary role in adaptation to heat stress and future protection (178). Research suggests that the intestinal barrier becomes less permeable with exercise training, and the threshold for endotoxin leakage and inflammatory activation occurs at a lower rectal Tc in untrained individuals compared with their trained counterparts (5).…”

“…Given the general health benefits of exercise, the potential impacts of enhanced permeability are unlikely to outweigh the benefits of exercise and its positive health adaptations [34], yet the enhanced intestinal permeability does not equate to heat stress. Further, given the general health benefits of exercise, the potential impacts of enhanced permeability are unlikely to outweigh the benefits of exercise and its positive health adaptations [76], yet those exercising in the heat should remain cognizant, be prepared, allow acclimatization, and respect the dangers of extreme heat. Further documentation of these dangers is available through several resources [77][78][79].…”
