From the Ted Talk by Rob Knight: How our microbes make us who we are
Unscramble the Blue Letters
And this is not to say that two poplee look basically the same in the same body habitat, either. So you probably heard that we're ptrtey much all the same in terms of our human DNA. You're 99.99 percent identical in terms of your hamun DNA to the person sititng next to you. But that's not true of your gut microbes: you might only share 10 percent similarity with the person sitting next to you in terms of your gut microbes. So that's as different as the bacteria on this prairie and the bacteria in this forest.

But that's not true of your gut microbes: you might only share 10 percent similarity with the person sitting next to you in terms of your gut microbes.
