microbiome modulation

Microbiome modulation refers to the process of altering the composition and activity of the trillions of microorganisms living in and on our bodies, especially in the gut. These microbes play a crucial role in our health, affecting digestion, immune function, and even mood. Modulating the microbiome can involve dietary changes, probiotics (beneficial bacteria), prebiotics (food for these bacteria), and lifestyle adjustments. The goal is to promote a balanced microbiome that supports overall well-being and helps prevent diseases, as an imbalanced microbiome can lead to health issues such as allergies, obesity, and digestive disorders.
