So Akkermansia muciniphila in our guts weighs 0.7 ounces to 3.5 ounces in total and we didn't know about it until 2004!

They're really, really small................

Don’t eat anything that’s white. Pasta is bad. Cheese is good.

Chocolate over 90% dark is not a sweet. It’s far, far less sweet than fruit. And you can eat it all day too... don’t ask me how I know that. Better than coffee.

Growing up on a ranch in a family of natural living nuts, I ate that way from day one-not even processed sugar-only honey or raw brown sugar as sweetener, no white flour-so pretty much no bread or pasta, no packaged, boxed or frozen stuff purchased, only brown rice, no margarine, corn oil, etc. I never developed a taste for any processed food, so I don’t eat any-I’ve never been overweight-weigh what I did at 17-work just as hard and have plenty of energy for 3X weekly workout with weights.

In college, I did briefly succumb to the lure of the cheapness and convenience of dorm food/fast food for a few months-gained 7 lbs, had no energy and constant digestive problems-on a visit home, my mom read me the riot act, loaded up my truck before I left with veggies and herbs from the garden, eggs from the chickens, butter, and grass fed meat from the freezer. I kicked the dorm food/fast food habit and never ate that stuff again...

Poop transplant. Seriously. Works 98% of the time on the first try and 100% of the time if a second round is needed.
It’s input as a liquid during a colostomy like procedure. I know someone who was an antibiotics for over a month to cure a C-Dif infection and finally they had to resort to the transplant which worked in about 3 days.

Apparently you can make up to 13k/year donating poop...if you’re healthy.

What you eat is up to you-but as far as being healthy food-it isn’t-that pasta is made from bleached white wheat flour that has 0 nutritional value-nothing but empty carbs to mess up your system and make/keep your ass fat-food can’t be much more processed than that-and if you are making the mac and cheese with packaged cheese slices or that Velveeta crap in a brick or in a jar-read the label-it is “processed cheese food”-it isn’t even 50% cheese-it is solidified, cheese flavored vegetable oil and stuff. If you are using the packet that comes in the box, that is cheese flavored powder of unknown origin-yummm,disfrute mac and cheese...

I’m betting there is a product that enhances/increases it at one of the online health food retailers-there seems to be a product for everything else...

You said above that those two you know with MS and RA have it. Do they or don’t they? Or was that a typo?
