Few other scientific disciplines have met with as much success in the biomedical field as Microbiomics . The foundations of Microbiomics follow the research of Pasteur, Koch and other famous microbiologists who studied the pathogenic power of bacteria, until more recent authors also demonstrated the beneficial role that many bacteria present in the intestinal flora have. It is up to Isaac Kendall, the definition of microbiota, which is the complex of microbes present in the intestine, and to have recognized its alteration, called dysbiosis, the cause of the most widespread diseases, furthermore he also described its role in other biological activities and on the immune system. Since then, a large group of authors have engaged in a real competition in order to search for the most unlikely pathogenetic connections between dysbiosis and many pathologies for which no certain cause has not been demonstrated yet. Thus an inexhaustible source of etiological hypotheses has fictitiously and randomly replaced our ignorance about the certain causes of diseases that affect humans. In this article Weare going to criticize firmly this improper use of scientific investigations conducted with the use of Microbiomics, highlighting the obvious contradictions of the results obtained and the close business connections with pharmaceutical and food multinationals.
