Study of microbiome of indigenous populations in the Amazon
Discussion started by Doorie 9 years ago
Thought this article was kind of interesting.
Researchers are evaluating the microbiome (feces) of the indigenous tribes in the Amazon. The objective is to isolate differences between a population that has not been exposed to Western world diets and lifestyle versus our western world microbiomes.
It will be interesting to see what the researchers discover.

Doorie, this is a great link, thanks for posting.
I for one will be awaiting the study results with a great amount of anticipation. I suspect the differences will be large. I also believe differences could account for differences in disease patterns between African nations and the Western world. Interesting stuff!
