Institute for Climate Change, Environmental Health, and Exposomics
Uncovering how environmental exposures shape human health
Nutrition plays a critical role in shaping microbiome health. Learn how researchers at Mount Sinai’s Institute for Exposomic Research unveil the complex relationship between human diet and the gut microbiome.
The Gut and Microbiome Lunchtime Chat has generated many follow up questions. Gain in-depth insights on the impact of nutrition on gut health from a leading expert in the field.
The gut microbiome is the community of microorganisms that live in the digestive tract and play a crucial role in human health. Dr. Walker will explain how the types of food we eat can affect the balance of bacteria in our gut and impact our overall health. Dr. Walker will also explore the potential benefits of probiotics and other strategies for maintaining a healthy gut microbiome.
