Abstract
The human microbiome consists of trillions of microorganisms that inhabit the human body and play essential roles in maintaining health. Microbial communities influence various aspects of human biology, including digestion, immune system function, metabolism, and disease resistance. This article explores the influence of microbial communities on human health, focusing on the gut microbiota and its interactions with the immune system. It discusses how microbial imbalances (dysbiosis) are linked to various diseases, including gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmune diseases, metabolic diseases, and mental health conditions. Furthermore, the article examines emerging therapeutic approaches, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation, in the management and treatment of health conditions related to microbial imbalances.
