The role of the gut microbiome (GM) on sleep as well as other physiologic activities has been a developing area of interest from the standpoint of the impact it may have in humans. It has been shown that alterations in the GM may impact sleep, blood pressure, our circadian rhythm, and even cognition [43, 44]. In the future, our sleep and the management of sleep disorders may be impacted by the interaction between the gut and brain [45], often referred to as the gut‐brain axis.
