Marine Bioactive Substances in Precision Nutrient Delivery to the Gut and Advances in Microbiome Regulation: A Narrative Review.

ABSTRACT: Marine bioactive substances exhibit structural diversity and function-specific properties, attracting considerable interest in their potential applications in targeted nutritional delivery to the gut and microbiota regulation. These bioactive components, sourced from seaweed, marine crustaceans, and microorganisms, including polysaccharides, polyphenols, and lipids, demonstrate exceptional biocompatibility and specific recognition capabilities. They serve as an optimal carrier matrix and functional core for developing an efficient, precision-targeted intestinal nutrition delivery system. Research findings demonstrate that optimization via innovative delivery technologies, including nanoencapsulation and polymer microsphere encapsulation, enables marine bioactive substances to navigate vari
