Summary
We have more bacterial cells than human cells. We have more bacterial DNA than human DNA. There is no question that our microbiome has a massive impact on every single aspect of health. If there is an issue with your bacterial diversity or quantity, it will have an impact on your health.
The bacteria, viruses and fungi that make up your microbiome play a massive role in digestion, metabolism and body composition, but that's not all. They are a major player in immunity, mood, cognitive ability, heart health, inflammation and more.
In today's episode we're looking deep into the impact of the microbiome and what we can do about it!

| 0:33.0 | Back in episode 481, I asked you guys two questions. |
| 0:38.6 | The first question was, what would you rather hear about today in this episode? |
| 0:43.2 | I gave you a couple of options. |
| 0:45.4 | One was the microbiome and the other was cholesterol, blood lipids and the microbiome won so we will |

| 1:04.5 | I know there are a ton of episodes and most people haven't started at the beginning so I |
| 1:09.3 | wanted to take a second to shout out those episodes on cholesterol, blood lipids, dietary |
| 1:16.8 | fat, etc. |
| 1:18.6 | I will also link to them in the show notes. |
