Hot Sauce!

Eat some food with lots of Tabasco Sauce on it and you can kill off about 90% of those little critters. Take ‘um a few days to built up their strength again.

At least it seems that way :-)

"I think it's important that people realize that we are not really human — we are a walking colony of bacteria and they are crucial for our well being and health."

Stupidest comment ever.
Does that mean bacteria are 'not really bacteria' also? They rely on humans for their food source.

Only 170?!?! I would have thought there would be lots more species than that. Anyway, glad to have ‘em. I’ve had sterile gut in the past, and it ain’t no fun. Best to keep plenty of them working for you. Life would not be good without them.

See? I knew it all along, we are not alone. Give your gut a hug!

"I think it's important that people realize that we are not really human — we are a walking colony of bacteria and they are crucial for our well being and health."

Such statements "bug" me. The bacteria in our guts are tolerate by our immune systems. Bugs which make us sick are killed off. I suppose that chimps have many of the same gut bacteria. Does that mean that chimps are not chimps, as we are "not human"? The bugs may be much the same, but the hosts are different nonetheless.

Finally in the last line they are accurately called flora. Makes us more like a botanical garden than a zoo. This could be a case of “blame the headline writer.”
