The microbiome is the complete genetic content of all the microorganisms that typically inhabit a particular environment, especially a site on or in the body, such as the skin or the gastrointestinal tract.[1]
Segre (2023) points out that the microbiome is "good" and contributes to human health in various ways, such as digestion of food and prevention of colonization by pathogens.[2]
The Human Microbiome Project Consortium reported a remarkable diversity in the healthy human microbiome.[3]
