Plant-based vs. meat-based diets on adolescent executive function via gut microbiota roles: A systematic review

Year: 2026

Type: review

Abstract: The developmental transition from adolescence to young adulthood is a critical neurobiological period characterized by enhanced brain plasticity. During this phase, dietary patterns are pivotal in optimizing cognitive trajectories as the prefrontal cortex (PFC), which governs executive functions, is highly sensitive to nutritional signals. Utilizing the PRISMA framework across databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science from 2000 until 2026, this systematic review evaluates the characteristics of plant-based and meat-based nutrition on executive functions.
