I&#x27;ve commented a bunch of time on gut microbiome before and I&#x27;ll say it again here who may have not caught it.  If this article is interesting check out &quot;The Good Gut&quot; by Justin and Erica Sonnenburg, PhD.  I&#x27;ve been experimenting with an ad hoc restorative process through ideas in the book and reading&#x2F;research around a myriad of pro&#x2F;prebiotics + diet change.<p>For me the whole subject adds a lot of weight to the idea of &quot;skinny fat&quot; vs &quot;fat&quot;.  I&#x27;m glad we&#x27;re in an age of companies like WellnessFX where I can objectively see the positive changes made by changes to a lifestyle...  But, again, I can&#x27;t stress enough how much great information and studies that have been broken down is in the book.  No affiliation, but it&#x27;s very powerful knowledge.<p>$0.02.<p>edit: &quot;we&#x27;re not in&quot; to &quot;we&#x27;re in&quot;, whoops
