I would like to get a reasonably good intuition in regards to the total amount of compound DNA from human bodies at different biochemical states, in different locations around the world (different climates). By "compound DNA" I mean, including DNA of bacterium, fungi and viruses living within one's body. For instance, gut bacteria acquired and maintained based on food intake and environmental influence.


In other words, how much the perception of DNA data in gigabytes grow by in different circumstances? Would it grow by a few more gigabytes ?
