  abstract = {{I}ron deficiency is the most frequent nutritional deficiency in the world with an estimated 1.4 billion people affected. {T}he usual way to fight iron deficiency is iron fortification, but this approach is not always effective and can have undesirable side effects including an increase in the growth and virulence of gut bacterial pathogens responsible for diarrhea and gut inflammation. {I}ron is mainly absorbed in the duodenum and is tightly regulated in mammals. {U}nabsorbed iron enters the colonic lumen where many microorganisms, referred to as gut microbiota, reside. {I}ron is essential for these bacteria, and its availability consequently affects this microbial ecosystem. {T}he aim of this review is to provide further insights into the complex relationship between iron and gut microbiota. {G}iven that overcoming anemia caused by iron deficiency is still a challenge today, gut microbiota could help identify more efficient ways to tackle this public health problem.},
