Example of lifestyle factors impacting the gut microbiota, favoring health or disease. Factors reported in green have been linked to positive, health-oriented changes, while factors reported in red have been associated with negative alterations of the gut microbiota, linked with dysbiosis and disease states. Elements reported in orange font are factors with an impact that may be either positive or negative. Yoga and hypnotherapy have been marked with a question mark since it is still not clear if the positive health effects may be linked to gut microbiota changes.
