The Garden in Your Gut By  Amanda Kolson Hurley Probiotics and fermented foods are all the rage for digestive health, but do they really work? Here’s what scientists are discovering about the trillions of microbes that live in our bodies and how this complex ecosystem—which some call the “second brain”—influences not just our digestion but our overall well-being. In the first scene of his tragedy Coriolanus, Shakespeare weaves a vivid metaphor of the Roman republic as a human body, an organism that can’t function unless all its constituent parts work together.

Un voto por La Paz Karen Rappaccioli-Tünnermann Krappaccioli-Tunnermann.blogspot.com Solo una nota ... aboguemos a la reconciliación , el respeto, la prosperidad incluyente de todos en armonía, con justicia social .
