Do you think Durge has any chronic health issues as a result of Kressa Bonedaughter messing around inside of them so many times? Not to speak of constantly thrashing around in that pod and causing further damage to their head (and everything else)

I respect that this book takes pains to note that we shouldn’t draw big conclusions from single studies with small sample sizes, but I hope it’s true that astronauts’ intestinal microbiomes become more similar over time because it reminds me of college dorm residents syncing up their periods.

Something that I think a lot of people who write about Kevin having an ED don't know is that coming off a very strict diet will make you sick when you go back to eating normal food. Like, your body straight up forgets how to process sugar and fat for a while – it's more than a psychological reaction.
So yeah, while his insistance on avoiding certain foods before games are a combination of Actual Facts and Nest Paranoia, there could also be a real element of "Of course you can't have a burguer and fries before a game. That's gonna make you bloated and slow and nauseous for three days. What are you talking about Aaron what do you mean that's not normal"

‘Fragile Microbiomes’ by bio-artist Anna Dumitriu
1. SYPHILIS DRESS- This dress is embroidered with images of the corkscrew-shaped bacterium which causes the sexually transmitted disease syphilis. These embroideries are impregnated with the sterilised DNA of the Nichols strain of the bacterium - Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum - which Dumitriu extracted with her collaborators.
2. MICROBE MOUTH- The tooth at the centre of this necklace was grown in the lab using an extremophile bacterium which is part of the species called Serratia (Serratia N14) that can produce hydroxyapatite, the same substance that tooth enamel is made from.
The handmade porcelain teeth that make up this necklace have been coated with glazes derived from various bacterial species that live in our mouths and cause tooth decay and gum disease, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, which can introduce an iron-containing light brown stain to the glaze.
3. TEETH MARKS: THE MOST PROFOUND MYSTERY- In his 1845 essay “On Artificial Teeth”, W.H. Mortimer described false teeth as “the most profound mystery” because they were never discussed. Instead, people would hide the stigma of bad teeth and foul breath using fans.
This altered antique fan is made from animal bone and has been mended with gold wire, both materials historically used to construct false teeth (which would also sometimes incorporate human teeth). The silk of the fan and ribbon has been grown and patterned with two species of oral pathogens: Prevotella intermedia and Porphyromonas gingivalis. These bacteria cause gum disease and bad breath, and the latter has also recently been linked to Alzheimer’s disease.
4. PLAGUE DRESS- This 1665-style 'Plague Dress' is made from raw silk, hand-dyed with walnut husks in reference to the famous herbalist of the era Nicholas Culpeper, who recommended walnuts as a treatment for plague. It has been appliquéd with original 17th-century embroideries, impregnated with the DNA of Yersinia pestis bacteria (plague). The artist extracted this from killed bacteria in the laboratory of the National Collection of Type Cultures at the UK Health Security Agency.
The dress is stuffed and surrounded by lavender, which people carried during the Great Plague of London to cover the stench of infection and to prevent the disease, which was believed to be caused by 'bad air' or 'miasmas'. The silk of the dress references the Silk Road, a key vector for the spread of plague.
5. BACTERIAL BAPTISM- based on a vintage christening gown which has been altered by the artist to tell the story of research into how the microbiomes of babies develop, with a focus on the bacterium Clostridioides difficile, originally discovered by Hall and O’Toole in 1935 and presented in their paper “Intestinal flora in new-born infants”. It was named Bacillus difficilis because it was difficult to grow, and in the 1970s it was recognised as causing conditions from mild antibiotic-associated diarrhoea to life-threatening intestinal inflammation. The embroidery silk is dyed using stains used in the study of the gut microbiome and the gown is decorated with hand-crocheted linen lace grown in lab with (sterilised) C. difficile biofilms. The piece also considers how new-borns become colonised by bacteria during birth in what has been described as ‘bacterial baptism’.
6. ZENEXTON- Around 1570, Swiss physician and alchemist Theophrastus Paracelsus coined the term ‘Zenexton’, meaning an amulet worn around the neck to protect from the plague. Until then, amulets had a more general purpose of warding off (unspecified) disease, rather like the difference today between ‘broad spectrum’ antibiotics and antibiotics informed by genomics approaches which target a specific organism.
Over the next century, several ideas were put forward as to what this amulet might contain: a paste made of powdered toads, sapphires that would turn black when they leeched the pestilence from the body, or menstrual blood. Bizarre improvements were later made: “of course, the toad should be finely powdered”; “the menstrual blood from a virgin”; “collected on a full moon”.
This very modern Zenexton has been 3D printed and offers the wearer something that genuinely protects: the recently developed vaccine against Yersinia pestis, the bacterium that causes plague.

Qual a diferença entre IOGURTE NATURAL e IOGURTE 0?
Tumblr media
INTRODUÇÃO:
Iogurtes naturais são feitos a partir do leite de vaca, podendo ser tanto integrais quanto desnatados, e em muita das vezes contém probióticos, que nada mais são do que bactérias que auxiliam na flora intestinal. Quando um iogurte é feito de leite integral, ele é naturalmente mais cremoso pelo fato de possuir gordura, porém não possui a adição de açúcares além do próprio leite (lactose).
Iogurtes 0%, por sua vez, são sempre desnatados e não contém nenhum tipo de gordura! Outro fato interessante a se citar é que iogurtes 0% muitas das vezes também são reduzidos em lactose, muitas das vezes substituídos por adoçantes artificiais para trazer aquele sabor único e gostoso da bebida. Iogurtes 0 costumam ser mais leves e reduzidos em caloria devido à ausência da gordura do soro do leite, o que também faz com que percam um pouco da cremosidade que o iogurte natural trás.
OPÇÕES
"Ok nutri, você já me explicou a diferença entre eles! Mas qual eu devo escolher?"
Não se apresse, borboletinha. Ambas são escolhas excelentes para se incluir dentro da sua alimentação e a sua deve se basear no intuito pelo qual você quer consumir esse iogurte! Então vamos lá:
O iogurte natural é a melhor opção caso você esteja buscando um lanche completo e nutritivo, com gorduras saudáveis e vitaminas importantes (A, D, E e K). Além de nutritivo e proteico, te ajuda a manter sua saciedade por muito tempo! A questão é que iogurtes naturais são mais condensados em calorias devido à gordura, além de que muitas das vezes você precisa complementar com algo a mais para obter um gosto agradável (como mel ou frutas), então se seu intuito é unicamente reduzir seu gasto calórico, o melhor é evitar.
Já o iogurte 0 é a melhor opção caso você queira reduzir a ingestão de calorias e gordura, ele é muito mais leve e geralmente mais recomendado em um plano de emagrecimento. Existem marcas excelentes que fazem iogurtes realmente gostosos e baixos em calorias, os meus favoritos são: MOLICO e ITAMBÉ. O Molico é o menos calórico da lista, porém tanto o Itambé 0 (como mostrado na imagem) quanto o grego 0 (que também é uma sub-marca da Itambé) também são opções excelentes porque são consistentes e possuem pedaços de fruta, o que ajuda muito na sua saciedade!
CONCLUSÃO:
🌟 Se você prioriza saciedade e sabor, o iogurte natural com gordura poderá ser mais satisfatório.
🌟 Se sua meta é redução calórica, o iogurte 0 pode ser mais adequado.
Se chegou até aqui CURTE, COMENTA e COMPARTILHA para atingir cada vez mais pessoas!!!

Shidou hates vegetables (he'd gladly live off raw meat and carbs if he could) so Sae, in the attempt to save Shidou's intestinal flora from a fate worse than death, makes him some """special burgers""" which are actually moslty made out of vegetables.
Sae portions them, grills them and, when they are cold, puts them in the freezer, ready for Shidou to defrost and eat. (less time Ryusei spends in the kitchen = lower risk of something exploding)
Shidou has yet failed to notice it.
Also I like to imagine Sae actually sucks at cooking. He is used to let his personal chef do everything, yet Shidou stubbornly refuses to eat anything that has not been made by Sae-chan sweet hands, so Sae had to come up with something easy to make and also not too time consuming.
So yeah this means that Sae's "burgers" look absolutely atrocious and he forgets to put salt in it, like, half of the time, yet Ryusei always devours them as if he was a starving dog.
((Sae is convinced Shidou got his taste buds burnt after years of questionable eating habits, but in reality Ryusei feeds off more on the idea of Sae taking care of him than on the food itself.))

AEIWAM: Why DOES the God Machine decay, anyways? It's operating outside of time and space. For that matter, I have Other questions about it. Why does it generate existence in the first place? Does it change its composition over time? Does it communicate with others like it? Did someone make it?
Strictly speaking, there is no reason for life to exist, here or in the fic. This is all just a very fun accident. Life exists in the 4 dimensions we're familiar with not because there is a reason FOR life to exist, but because there is no particular reason for life to NOT exist. I think it's the same in twelve or two hundred forty-seven dimensions. There's no reason for life to NOT exist outside of our understanding of time and space, so there's not particular reason to think it does not exist.
So the life machine exists, not because it was made, but because there is no reason it should not exist.
One thing that does seem to be true across different dimensions (and by "dimensions" I mean "measurable spectrums in which reality can exist", not "Alternate universes") is that death, or at least, entropy *does* exist. The universe we live in will eventually experience heat death. Time unravels under specific conditions and indications are that those conditions will eventually become dominant. All things, even the laws of physics, eventually die.
So the Life Machine dies, because for some reason, all things do.
...But also Things are born for no particular reason.
The big bang happened for no particular reason other than nothing was stopping it (kind of literally). Some people think that the universe will not experience heat death at all, but a dimensional collapse that crushes it all back together, before it explodes again, like a cosmic inhale and exhale.
Perhaps the Life Machine is not dying at all, so much as this version of it is reaching the next phase of it's life cycle, and it departs it's mortal coil not for oblivion but it turns to goop to reform into a body measured in entirely different dimensions.
Which is a bit of an upheaval for its microflora.
The Life Machine generates life in the same way you and I 'generate' the conditions of our intestines that support bacteria. If you ask most people, they do not think their primary purpose in life is to play host to billions of microorganisms, but that is very much something we do, and depend on.
Likewise, the Life Machine is misnamed, because it's got purpose beyond human understanding, like how humans have purpose beyond the understanding of eyelash mites. It's doing it's own thing, we just live here. but if all our microflora and fauna were to leave, it'd be a major problem for us, and if all life were to stop, it'd be a problem for the Life Machine.
In the Tarot, "Death" symbolizes change, and the Life Machine is Dying in the sense that it's definitely changing. Whether that change is the change from caterpillar to butterfly or from whale to whalefall is beyond the comprehension of Mortals, or even things like The Soul King.
Soul King's job is to keep the souls alive through this, and they achieve this by exploiting the fact that this change is also when the Life Machine reproduces. Regardless if the current Life Machine becomes a butterfly or a corpse, it's offspring will have suitable conditions for life to continue. Maybe this is a gift form parent to child- the life machine passes her internal flora to her offspring like a mother transfers her own colonies and antibodies to her child via colostrum. Maybe the Life Machine isn't thinking of it's offspring at all and this is all just the machinations of the parasites to propagate themselves into a new host for the sake of future generations.
Either way, neither action is planned or designed, but are still acts of love from a parent to child. Woman and Nematode alike loves her daughter.
TL;DR: As Above, So below, in the gooeiest and most incomprehensible but deeply loving way possible.

Future thinking
One of the hurdles faced with human/mechanical hybridization is the long term viability of any port installed on the human body. There are multiple medical applications currently where permanent to semi permanent ports are implanted, acting as a fixed gateway between the systems. The problem is keeping this hole happy— stop the body from pushing it out while not getting infected.
It’s the seawater donut issue. Humans are essentially donut shaped bags of seawater, carrying around our private oceans of nutrients and hormones (the donut hole is your digestive system passing through the middle). All complex life on earth is an expansion on this basic concept—keep good stuff in, keep bad stuff out, and a tube where you control stuff coming in and out.
How this plays out in humans is that skin acts as the main barrier (outside the donut), the digestive tract is outside the body, and your intestines pull all the nutrients they need and everything else passes through. This is why punctures to the intestines are so dangerous— it crosses the internal/external body barrier and allows your gut bacteria into your body cavity. Gut flora is incredibly important for our body to function, but it is technically outside the body, and is dangerous once inside.
So this is a long preamble to say that grafting monitors to your arm and passing wires through the skin are not without potential complications, because it goes against our body’s safety protocols.
I think it would be safer to dock our tech to the body’s established trade port. The stomach

hello :) i’m trying to improve my gut health so i was wondering if you know what i should eat / take to have a healthy gut? thank you ♡
Hi angel <3
Eat foods like whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, and nuts are high in fiber, which can promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
Fermented foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, olives, pickles, kimchi, and kombucha contain probiotics that can help balance your gut flora.
Prebiotic foods feed the good bacteria in your gut. Examples include garlic, onions, leeks, asparagus, bananas, berries, tomatoes.
Drinking enough water helps keep your digestive system working well. Add some lemon in your water too.
High-sugar and low-fiber processed foods can negatively impact gut health. Limit the amount of processed foods you eat.
Stress can affect your gut health, so try meditation or yoga.
Try to get 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night.
Exercising regularly also helps support a healthy gut.
Eat less sugar and artificial sweeteners.
Drink bone broth daily. It helps with intestinal healing and prevents diseases.
Make sure you are taking enough magnesium.
I will write a gut healthy grocery list on a separate post :)

Regarding my previous question: I looked up the definitions of flora. It’s plants and also books about plants
There is another definition which includes non plants though: your gut microbiome! ie. intestinal flora
yeah there is that!!!! but i think generally we just dont pay attention to fungi enough to give them a term like that

Do not drink this product.
______________
KOMBUCHA is a cocktail of fermented patented farmed bacteria.
It increases alcohol thus raising acidity in the body.
______________
It's primary ingredients are gram positive bacteria that increase lactic acid.
Lactic acid buildup can cause cramping pains.
______________
It is anaerobic:without oxygen.
_____________
We get digestive help from fruit skin oxidation in our intestines.
______________
The bloom of fruit found on the skin is an immunity booster as it is secreted by the epidermal skin cells in the fruit and assists us at fighting bad bacteria like E. coli, candida , Helicobacter pylori etc.
All of which are increased by these fake probiotics like KOMBUCHA and ACV.
____________
If you suffer from celiacs disease, crohn's disease or other IBS types of diseases you have a high E. coli and candida infection and need a pure and natural probiotic to restore intestinal flora.
_______________
Antibiotics, baby formulas and poor nutrition during pregnancy wipe out all natural bacteria in the gut and is the lead cause in development of these diseases.

In a unique study carried out in drinking water pipes in Sweden, researchers from Lund University and the local water company tested what would happen if chlorine was omitted from drinking water. The result? An increase in bacteria, of course, but after a while something surprising happened: a harmless predatory bacteria grew in numbers and ate most of the other bacteria. The study suggests that chlorine is not always needed if the filtration is efficient—and that predatory bacteria could perhaps be used to purify water in the future. Just as human intestines contain a rich bacterial flora, many types of bacteria thrive in our drinking water and the pipes that transport them. On the inside of pipe walls is a thin, slippery coating, called a biofilm, which protects and supports bacteria. These bacteria have adapted to life in the presence of chlorine, which otherwise has the primary task to kill bacteria, particularity bacteria that can make humans sick.
