The intestinal microbiome is also implicated as a triggering or mediating factor in Grave’s disease, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, systemic lupus erythematosus, and psoriasis.

The human intestinal microbiome acts as a signaling hub that integrates environmental inputs, such as diet and lifestyle, with our genetic and metabolic pathways. Its impacts are widespread across host systems, including the immune system,1 which is capable of adapting and responding to a wide range of challenges. How does the microbiome interact with the immune system, and how do these interactions help determine a state of health or disease in the body?

ling,

I have just edited your post to remove loads of tracking data from it. Most of the time, when posting links, you only need the bit up to, but not including, the question mark. The rest lets "them" know who posted it somewhere, etc. Sometimes it is even enough for someone following the link to end up being thought to be you.

Long links also put off a lot of people from clicking on them.

(Occasionally, some of the extra information after the question mark is necessary. So try it without before posting. If it works, that is all you need.)
