Long-term diet is strongly associated with the gut microbiome composition – those who eat plenty of protein and animal fats have predominantly Bacteroides bacteria, while for those who consume more carbohydrates the Prevotella species dominate.
That film you get on your teeth after you’ve had a day loaded with cookies and soda? Prevotella.
Gingivitis and periodontitis – that’s the Prevotella. It particularly likes simple sugars, and steroids help it grow.
