Right now mat's talking about exogenous bacteria, bacteria that don't actually live within us per se. But there's just as many bacterial cells on and in our body as there are human cells. There's a hundred times more than that of proteins being made within and on us that will impact our healthso microboda is intrinsically regulated. And we're seeing this now, but we don't know too much.
In this episode, Dr Matt and Dr Mike discuss all the living (and non-living) organisms that can cause disease. This includes, viruses, prions, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and helminths (worms).
