Ana M Valdes and colleagues discuss strategies for modulating the gut microbiota through diet and probiotics Microbiome refers to the collective genomes of the micro-organisms in a particular environment, and microbiota is the community of micro-organisms themselves (box 1). Approximately 100 trillion micro-organisms (most of them bacteria, but also viruses, fungi, and protozoa) exist in the human gastrointestinal tract12—the microbiome is now best thought of as a virtual organ of the body. The human genome consists of about 23 000 genes, whereas the microbiome encodes over three million genes producing thousands of metabolites, which replace many of the functions of the host,13 consequently influencing the host’s fitness, phenotype, and health.2 Box 1 ### Glossary RETURN TO TEXT Twin studies have shown that, although there is a heritable component to gut microbiota, environmental factors related to diet, drugs, and anthropometric measures are larger determinants of microbiota composition.45 Gut …

We are busy, busy people—but I'll bet all of us can carve out seven minutes somewhere in our days, right? The newest issue of American College of Sports Medicine's Health & Fitness Journal takes all the newest exercise research and boils it down into one seven-minute workout. The 12 high-intensity exercises require just your own body weight—plus a chair and a wall.
