Our gut microbiome has
been shown to be a key modulator of human health. The organisms that are part
of our normal gut microflora have been proven to be involved in many aspects of
our overall health. There are more microbes in and on us than we have human
cells. Not only bacteria, but fungi, viruses and other microbes are present in
and on the human body.
#1 For your initial
discussion post,
research one of the major human diseases, longevity or infant health that have
been shown to be impacted by our gut microbiota and tell us your beliefs on the
accuracy of the claims. How can we best utilize this knowledge in our own
lives? Can we help those we love with their health issues by helping to modify
their gut microbiota?
#2 Expand your ideas by sharing examples
from your own experience or readings, suggesting outside resources to support
the topic, and/or asking furthering questions to dig deeper into the topic.
Note:
You must
use at least one source in your initial post. When you refer to a website or article, be sure to cite it in APA
format. This prevents plagiarism and allows your fellow students to
review the cites and increase the class knowledge base.
