The human microbiome has been a topic of interest for both research and clinical applications in recent decades. However, the considerable gut microbial variation observed across human populations poses a challenge in terms of targeted interventions. Diet (1), exercise (2), age (3), ancestry (4), and geographic latitude (5) all influence the composition of the gut microbiome. The individualized nature of microbiome compositions makes responses to modulatory interventions, including probiotics, prebiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation, subject-specific (6).
