The power of microbes: A podcast with Theda Bartolomaeus
Trillions of microorganisms live in and on us — and they have a major influence on our well-being. The microbiome not only controls digestion and the immune system, but can also influence cardiovascular diseases and our mental health.
Which role plays the microbiome in our body and how can we strengthen it in our daily lives to protect ourselves better against diseases? In the latest episode of the ‘Research Quartet’ podcast, Theda Bartolomaeus talks about this topic. She is a food chemist and conducts research into the microbiome at the Max Delbrück Center.
