The Gut Microbiome: Exploring the Connection between Microbes, Diet, and Health explains what the microbiome is, the many functions it serves, how it can be either harmed or supported by our actions, and the role it may play in various diseases and in determining our overall health. The book examines the various potential causes of imbalance in the microbiome, such as diet and other lifestyle factors, and then identifies strategies for improving human health by protecting the gut microbiota. The science-based information is detailed but accessible to general readers or students without extensive background knowledge.--Publisher. 650 0 $a Gastrointestinal system $x Microbiology. 650 0 $a Bacteria 650 0 $a Human body $x Microbiology. 650 12 $a Gastrointestinal Microbiome. 650 12 $a Gastrointestinal Tract $x microbiology. 650 22 $a Nutritional Physiological Phenomena. 650 7 $a Bacteria $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00825152 650 7 $a Gastrointestinal system $x Microbiology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00938889 650 7 $a Human body $x Microbiology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01730082 650 7 $a HEALTH & FITNESS / Diet & Nutrition / Nutrition. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a MEDICAL / Diet Therapy. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Health and Fitness. $2 eflch 650 7 $a Health and Wellbeing. $2 ukslc 776 08 $i Online version: $a Moise, Ana Maria R. $t Gut microbiome. $d Santa Barbara, California : Greenwood, an imprint of ABC-CLIO, LLC, [2017] $z 9781440842658 $w (OCoLC)987909582 $w (OCoLC)987909582 941 $a 4 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718093026.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20230627011413.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20181218010237.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20181218010122.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6BD210F6C08811E888376B6D97128E48 994 $a Z0 $b HL6Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
