Did you know that scientists can look at your gut microbiome composition and tell with 90% accuracy if you are obese or lean? Scientists have also discovered that certain gut microbes help shape your body and keep obesity at bay — which means if you’re having trouble losing weight, your microbiome could be the culprit. This will be a two-part interview with Viome CEO, Naveen Jain. Naveen is an entrepreneur and philanthropist driven to solve the world’s biggest challenges through innovation. In today’s Part 1 episode, we’re going to discuss the huge importance the gut microbiome plays on our overall health. Plus, Mr. Jain informs us of a test anyone can take that can predict the future of your overall health in regard to nearly every chronic disease so many suffer from.
