how changes in the microbiome are associated with, or even cause, illnesses.»
This expanding science is compelling, humbling, and, at the same time, empowering, as we now are beginning to make real inroads into understanding
how changes in the microbiome (the collection of the microbes, their genetic material, and the metabolic products they create) affect health, disease resistance and longevity.
