We will discuss the structure of the gut microbiome and microbiota variability and how these can change in response to diet and environment. We will explore the early establishment of your microbiome and how your mode of delivery into the world (C-section or not) shapes your gut. Our discussion also includes lifestyle factors that can alter your microbiome and the integral role the gut microbiome plays in communicating to other organs, including your brain.
