Human Microbiome Modulator
The human microbiome, composed of trillions of microorganisms residing in the gut, skin, and other body sites, plays a fundamental role in maintaining health. It influences digestion, immune regulation, metabolic balance, and even mental well-being. However, disruptions to the microbiome—caused by poor diet, antibiotics, stress, or illness—can lead to conditions such as obesity, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, allergies, and neurodegenerative disorders. This has led to rising interest in human microbiome modulators, therapeutic approaches designed to restore or optimize microbial balance.
Microbiome modulators encompass a wide range of strategies, including probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, postbiotics, dietary interventions, and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Probiotics introduce beneficial live microorganisms, while prebiotics stimulate the growth of native beneficial bacteria. Synbiotics combine both, while postbiotics use microbial metabolites to trigger positive immune and metabolic responses. Among the most advanced approaches, FMT has shown promising results in treating recurrent Clostridioides difficile infections and is being…
