The human microbiome plays a crucial role in maintaining health by aiding digestion, producing vitamins, and supporting the immune system.
Genetic variations, known as SNPs, can be affected by environmental interactions and impact health outcomes.
Environmental factors like industrial chemicals, infections, and stress can alter the composition of the microbiome and lead to chronic diseases. Addressing ACE’s is crucial, as they are linked to various health problems, including anxiety, depression, autoimmune disorders, and other mental health conditions.
