And once we disrupt the circadian microbial activity, for example, by changing the patterns of our diet or by subjecting mice to jet lag behavior, the microbes go crazy and stop behaving in this orderly manner throughout the course of a day, and this directly reflects on how the host behaves in its normal circadian behavior. And we found that once we disrupt the microbes, the host is now susceptible to develop obesity and type 2 diabetes...
