The combined gut microbiota (the community of micro-organisms in the gastrointestinal tract), exerts powerful and diverse effects on physiology. It plays a role in synthesizing useful biologically active molecules, modulating immune responses, behavior, and mood. Dysbiosis, where the balance of the microbiota is disrupted, is associated with increased risk of certain diseases, conditions and autoimmune reactions. This article examines the gut microbiota and its role in the body.
