RE: NSAS Idea Suggestion #9 - Influence Of Drug Overuse On The Human Microbiome
A somehow related post will be provided in roughly two weeks time by myself. But I will not cover exactly this topic/question.
For the one who might take the challenge:
I'm not so convinced, that this question can be tackled just by relating statistics of general (antibiotic) drug intake and overall occurence of the mentioned diseases. A lot of factors have changed during the last century, thus providing a potential multivariable correlation problem. Hence a purely stochastic approach seems prone to lead to false conclusions. Take this into account.

Agreed! I should have been more clear about this. The statistical part was more about seeing if there was a correlation. As I previously mentioned, the microbiome itself is affected by many things - diet, stress, etc.
Thank you for your advice!
Cheers!
