This plays a key role in digesting foods that you eat, by helping with absorbing nutrients, synthesising nutrients, your metabolism, body weight, immune regulation, your brain function and your mood. The gut microbiome is responsible for a variety of crucial functions in the body, which is due to its communication with the immune and neuro-endocrine systems. A healthy gut helps to fight off infection, performs usual digestive and regulatory functions, absorbs and synthesis’ nutrients. Depletion or alterations to microbiomes can be caused by stress, anxiety like behaviours, clinical depression, high fat diet, antibiotic usage as an infant. Some disease that depletion of microbiomes leads to include IBS, colitis, celiac disease, diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome, liver disease, heart disease, heart failure, parkinson’s disease, cancer, asthma.
