Microbiome and pouchitis

Hello,

I have been reading about the MicroBiome and in particular, Robynne Chutkans' book, The Microbiome Diet.  How does this apply to those of us without a colon? I am acting as though my pouch IS my colon. Since I have cut out milk and gluten, and beefed up my veggie intake, my pouch is so much calmer. I also wonder since the pouch is so much smaller than the large intestine, can it harbor enough good bacteria to keep me healthy?

Many thanks

Joanne
