Personalized Medicine (PM) harbors the inbuilt ambition to develop Personalized Wellness and to shift from curative purposes to lifelong health maintenance. Pharmacogenomics, though being the propeller by which the PM concept spread out is not long enough to depict the real molecular fingerprint of our health state. It is time to look up to other information embedded in our genome as the way we react to the exposure to the actual environment we live in. That environment includes food; chemicals, pollutants and the way we interact with the environment rely on the symbiotic organism formed by ourselves and the microbiota leaving in ourselves. An approach looking at the interaction among our genomic make-up, the microbiota and the external stimuli is like to hit the challenge of depicting personal phenomics and find novel solutions to improve and maintain health.
