Zusammenfassung:A system and method for predicting gut health of an individual using non-invasive technique has been provided. The system is making use of two types of pathways i.e. one which are beneficial to gut health and the second which are harmful to gut health. These two types of pathways are annotated in the genomes of gut bacteria. Best combinations of subsets of these pathways capable of distinguishing between gut commensals and pathogens are assigned as pathway biomarkers. The identified pathway biomarkers are then used to develop scheme for prediction of gut health status.
