Description
Scientists have begun to explore microbial ecology of the human gut.
Read the following articles:
The gut microbiota: a key regulator of metabolic diseases
Diet and the Intestinal Microbiome: Associations, Functions, and Implications for Health and Disease
Then do some additional research in your textbook and/or online if needed to write up a response of at least 5 sentences to the following:
Can the types and proportions of microbes you have in your gut affect your health? And/or does your health affect the types of microbes in your gut?
Afterwards, I will be providing you 2 students response to respond to their post about the reading (only 5 sentences each)
