What does that me? In a dysbiotic microbiome there are not many different types of microbes, there are not many of the foundational microbes that produce the substances we need to thrive in health, and there may be pathogens starting to grow and take over residence since the health building microbes are missing.

Dysbiosis results in body wide symptoms and is the root of all health complaints from joint pain to Alzheimers and diabetes. What causes dysbiosis?
