Section Addition: Effects of Diet on Microbial Communities

[edit]

Multiple factors have been shown to change the composition of the microbiome in the gut, and an influx of studies have been created to show the impact of diet on these relationships. In order to make the "Alterations of Flora Balance" section more complete, I would recommend addressing this new area of thought, comparing vegetarian, vegan, and western diets in relationship to gut health.
