Gut Microbiota

Microbiome refers to the aggregate genomes of the microbes in a given environment, whereas microbiota refers to the community of microbes. The gut microbiota, a diverse and dynamic collection of microorganisms found in the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract, has a significant impact on the host during homeostasis and disease. Several variables have a role in the development of the human gut microbiota during childhood. Diet is thought to be one of the most important factors in influencing the gut microbiota throughout time. Many facets of human health, including immunological, metabolic, and neurobehavioral features, are influenced by gut microorganisms. Animal models and human research support the importance of gut microbiota in human health at various levels.
