Abstract in brief

  • A healthy gut microbiome is essential for overall health, but defining what exactly makes it "healthy" is complicated and requires advanced technology to analyze microbes at a detailed strain level.
  • Understanding how the microbiome varies among different populations, ages, diets, and lifestyles, as well as the roles of less-studied microbes like viruses, fungi, and archaea, is crucial for better diagnosis, prognosis, and personalized treatment.
  • Determining a clear definition of a healthy microbiome is an ongoing, complex challenge that needs continual research and refinement, as our current knowledge of its diverse components and functions is still evolving.]
