 The surprisingly high compositional variation in gut bacteria across individuals stands in stark contrast to the small amount of genetic diversity uncovered in the sequencing of our human genomes.(({{pubmed>long:21485746}})) Differences in our microbial communities may thus be one of the most important factors in differences in the metabolites that individuals extract from similar diets. The surprisingly high compositional variation in gut bacteria across individuals stands in stark contrast to the small amount of genetic diversity uncovered in the sequencing of our human genomes.(({{pubmed>long:21485746}})) Differences in our microbial communities may thus be one of the most important factors in differences in the metabolites that individuals extract from similar diets.
