the microbiota it’s more than 100,000 billion micro-organisms that live in every corner of our body. Since the human body is made up of 90% of bacteria, it is these bacteria that condition immunity for life. As you will have understood, microbiota have specific and important functions for our health, and would have a role in certain diseases such as:
-
-the digestive disorders (irritable bowel syndrome)
-the allergies
– metabolic disorders (obesity and diabetes)
-the neurodegenerative diseases (depressiondisease of Parkinson’s…).
Among the main microbiota of the human body: the oral microbiota, the vaginal microbiota, the mammary microbiota, the pulmonary microbiota, the microbiota of the ENT sphere, the skin microbiota or even the intestinal microbiota, considered today almost as an additional organ.
All play a major role both physiologically and pathophysiologically. It is because they are still too little known that the first information campaign will take place throughout the month of October.
