Peripheral nerve injuries are prevalent, yet strategies to improve nerve regeneration and prevent neurological disabilities remain poorly defined. In a recent publication, Serger and colleagues demonstrate that intermittent fasting regulates the production of microbial metabolites that promote axonal regeneration and improve thermosensory responses in a mouse nerve injury model.
