Things about the microbiome that I haven't worked out, and am trying to:
> 1: According to Blaser, the gut microbiome is formed between birth and approximately six years after which even if it is disturbed it will try to bounce back to this original configuration.
How exactly do the species inculcate in the gut during this period?
> 2: Is there really no way, bar fecal transplant, of repopulating the vast majority of the microbiome's residents that are not currently available as probiotics and fermented foods?
> 3: Complete a definitive list of non dietary interventions that have been proven or speculated to benefit the microbiome in some way. So far I have: adhering to a normal circadian rhythm; high protein diet; exercise; reduced stress.
> 4: What is the relationship between dysbiosis and leaky gut?
> 5: The major question: how exactly does antibiotic use effect the microbiome negatively? Does it merely create dysbiosis or are certain species eradicated entirely? If so, per question two, is there any way to get them back?
> 6: Soil based organisms. Any advantage over mainstream probiotics? Any non supplemental way of getting them safely?
