There is a whole living world around us, and ON us, that we cannot see...
Microbes (microscopic organisms) such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi are on every surface of this planet, including you.
Microbes form the very basis of life on earth. What most people don’t realise is, you and every other living being utterly depend on these tiny microbes for your survival, your health, and your wellbeing.
Groups of microbes working together are often termed the microbiome.
Humans have their very own microbiome in both our gut and on our skin, which is now recognised as its an organ. Our microbiome is the third pillar of human health.
