Modern 4P medicine (personalized, predictive, preventive, patient-centered) has fundamentally changed our understanding of human health. It has been proven that the human body is a giant symbiotic ecosystem. According to scientific estimates, the number of human cells in our body is about 30 trillion, while the number of bacterial cells reaches 38 trillion. In fact, in terms of the number of cells, we are less than half as human.

The modern rhythm of life dictates its rules to us: we work late, sacrifice sleep for deadlines, eat breakfast on the run, and eat dinner well past midnight. To our conscious minds, such chaos may seem like a sign of productivity or an inevitable norm of the urbanized world. However, for our bodies, or more precisely, for our microbiome, the lack of a clear schedule is a real disaster.

With the onset of warm days, traditional trips to nature with barbecues become an integral part of our leisure time. However, often the joy of delicious food quickly turns into discomfort: acute heaviness after eating , bloating, heartburn, and in the morning - fatigue and bowel disorders. Most people write this off as ordinary overeating and try to save themselves with enzyme preparations from the pharmacy.

With the onset of summer, we often fall into gastronomic fanaticism: we try to eat as many fresh gifts of nature as possible to saturate the body with vitamins and lose excess weight. However, gastroenterologists and microbiologists every summer record a surge in complaints of bloating, cramps, heaviness and discomfort in the abdomen after eating seemingly completely healthy food. Modern 4P medicine proves that we feed not only ourselves, but also our microbiome.
