Just like the gut microbiome, your skin microbiome is a community of tiny microbes with an enormous impact on your health and even a role in skin cancer prevention and treatment.
Scientists are analyzing the microbial communities in our guts down to the genetic level to learn how this knowledge may help our health — and even save our skin.
