Intestinal microbiota
>1014 microorganisms in GIT making us 90% bugs and 10% “us”! Microbiota=the collective microorganisms Microbiome=the collective gene content of those microorganisms “Dysbiosis”= dysregulated (abnormal) microbiota. Common to many diseases including diabetes, colon cancer, and IBD Site specific microbiota in GIT
