Microbiota
by Lucia Stansbie
Known also as the microbiome, is the bacteria, fungi and viruses population in our gut. Each individual has a unique microbiome, which is influenced by diet, lifestyle, disease, and environment. If some bacteria are very predominant or very scarce it can alter the microbiome balance in the gut (dysbiosis), which can be reflected in altered bowel movements, altered immunity and general discomfort.
