Dash S, Clarke G, Berk M, Jacka FN. The gut microbiome and diet in psy-chiatry: focus on depression. Curr Opin Psychiatry. 2015;28(1):1–6
This could be a novel way of addressing mental illness... especially in psychiatric hospitals. The diet fed to the patients may need to be adjusted to promote a healthy gut microbiome as part of the therapy in combating depression.... Having worked in a psych hospital I can speak first hand about how institutional the food is.

with exposure to more dangerous microorganisms how does this affect what we know of as the microbiome? Staph is a common bacteria that resides in healthcare workers noses from common exposure....I wonder if healthcare workers gut microflora is different then the general population

So is out innate immune system really innate, or developed from normal microflora and what we receive from our mother

Alistipes levels and other gut microbiota can be modified through dietary intervention,58 which may prove as an influential intervention for depressive disorders
Once again diet place a key role in reaching optimum health/ disease free state of being

GF mice have no commensal intestinal microbiota and as such exhibit an undeveloped immune system
The microbiome from the gut has been shown to be very important in newborns. As the baby passes through the birth canal-through a vaginal birth it is exposed to the mothers good bacteria and helps establish their immune system. A few studies have shown c-section babies have lower immune systems because of the possible lack of exposure to good bacteria from Mom. So, this was not a surprising statement.

altered microbiota has been linked to neuropsychological disorders including depression and autism spectrum disorder, metabolic disorders such as obesity, and gastrointestinal disorders including inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome.
A lot of illnesses that we have not been able to pinpoint exact causes for. Another theory to give us a hopeful answer to some debilitating ailments
