March 2024. Welcome to Planet You. This month: Exploring Four Microbiomes of Your Body. Dr. Uma Naidoo’s Favorite Spices to Support Your Gut. Why Sunlight Is Good for Your Microbes. What Does DS-01® Do in Your Body? Help Us Shape the Future of Circular

Your Body Is a Wonderland of Microbes. When you hear the word microbiome, you probably think of the gut microbiome, and for good reason. Of the 38 trillion bacteria living on and in you, the vast majority of them reside in your digestive tract.1 But did you know there are at least a dozen microbiomes across the human body? You have communities of microbes in and on your

Tongue • Saliva • Eyes • Nose • Lungs • Scalp • Bladder • Colon • Skin • Belly Button • Vagina • Penis • Hands • Feet • Appendix

Each of these microbiomes is unique, yet intricately linked to one another. They play an important role in an array of biological functions and influence many aspects of your health and well-being, working together to benefit the whole, a.k.a. You. Let’s explore a few of the most impactful communities. Oral Microbiome This community influences everything from bad breath to tooth decay. The oral microbiome can even impact systemic health—research has connected it to diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, neurodegenerative disease, and heart disease. Skin Microbiome Skin microbes are vital to your body’s outermost defense system and they protect you in various ways: Certain microbes produce antibiotic substances, some enhance your skin barrier function, and others stimulate the immune system. Gut Microbiome Your resident gut microbes perform critical functions to aid in digestion, produce vitamins, and support your gut barrier, but their impact goes well beyond the walls of your gastrointestinal tract. Vaginal Microbiome This ecosystem is akin to the vagina’s immune system, providing a barrier to unwanted intruders that can cause a host of issues from bacterial vaginosis to yeast infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs).

In our latest Cultured article, we zoom into each of these microbiomes—and six others—to uncover how they support you and how you, in turn, can support them.
