The loss of biodiversity in the human microbiome due to antibiotics, chlorine, and pesticide exposure is functionally equivalent to deleting chunks of the human genome because the microbiome produces 50-80% of major neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin that are essential to cognition, perception, and emotional regulation, and this has profound but unrecognized effects on psychology and behavior.
