The Gut Microbiota In Health And Disease
Hardback Edition: 1
An accessible overview of the varied microorganisms of the gut
The human gut contains an extraordinary array of microorganisms existing in intricate symbiosis with the body. These microbiota, numbering in the trillions, play a crucial role in maintaining overall gut health and warding off disease. With as much as 15% of the global population suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) caused by improper composition of gut microbiota, understanding these organisms and their vital contribution to human health has never been more important.
The Gut Microbiota in Health and Disease provides a concise, accessible introduction to gut microbiota and their contribution to human health. It offers not only an overview of the relevant microbiota and their roles in the body, but also extended discussion of diseases caused by gut dysbiosis. It offers a crucial window into this growing body of research into a critical area of overall human health.
