I think that a contributing (though probably not exclusive) factor to altered gut microbiome are the hideous number of vaccines that generation has been given. And the gut is also a problem with autistic children.

No vaccines or antibiotics..antibiotics are miraculous and I cant imagine how stressful it was for our grandparents raising our parents without them, but today they are overused to a ridiculous and harmful degree, destroying healthy gut microbiome. That happened to my millenials as small children. Both developed IBS. One grew out of it but it affected his behavior at the time, and the other sadly never did. She never knows when her tummy will have an issue..no rhyme or reason. Wish I knew then what I know now. I would have atleast supplemented their antibiotics with probiotics like kefir. (it is amazing!)
