Microbiome- Our puppet master

Producer of ‘Messenger Molecules’ (Neurotransmitters).

“The bacteria inside our guts, microbiomes, comprise an unlimited numbers of species and strains. They differ from person to person with limited or no relationship from person to person.
They are, among other things, ‘messenger molecules’ associated with the brain that circulate throughout the body in the bloodstream.
They even produce neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are the chemicals our brain uses to communicate with the rest of the
body.”
Viome, a company founded by Seattle area based Naveen Jain, was born out of the prestigious Los Alamos National Laboratory, which licensed technology that was designed for national security. “Every disease starts in the gut. This
(Viome) technology came out of Los Alamos Laboratory where the United States spent hundreds of millions of dollars developing
(the technology) for the biodefense war. They wanted to know that if some bad actor were to get a hold of some biological (weapon), we would need to know what would be making us sick?”

Conversely the same technology can be used to data mine your biology to achieve maximum health benefits. This is the approach Viome took.

Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.
