Importance of Your Microbiome for Optimal Health
Becoming Forgetful, Anxious, Allergic, or Too Heavy?

Story at-a-glance

  • Your microbiome is one of the primary factors that drive your genetic expression, turning genes on and off depending on which microbes are present
  • A number of health conditions and chronic diseases have been linked to the makeup of your microbiome, including depression, obesity, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, Crohn’s disease, brain diseases, autism, and allergies
  • Recent research also suggests your microbiome may determine your immune response to vaccines, and that wearing contact lenses alter your eyes’ microbiome making you more prone to eye infections
