The primary theory behind humans developing their own microbiomes is that it begins once we are born. As we emerge through the birth canal, a handover of bacteria takes place containing microbes that attach to the skin and form in the digestive tract. During pregnancy, a mother’s microbiome...

[1]. Neuroinflammation has been linked to the development and progression of these disease pathologies. The gut microbiome (GMB) is comprised of trillions of bacteria, archaea, protozoa, viruses, and fungi and has been shown to potentially regulate neuroinflammation in a variety of neurological ...
The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) of the National Institutes of Health convened a Working Group on the Microbiome in Cardiovascular, Pulmonary and Hematologic Health and Diseases from June 25, 2014, to June 26, 2014. The Working Group’s central goal was to define what ...
The human microbiome is a collection of microorganisms that inhabits your body. Your stomach and intestines alone are home to approximately three pounds of bacteria!
