We can take it one step further: There are microbes everywhere in your body, they matter and they do things. When you take them away or fuck with them too much, weird things start happening.
It is I think not a particularly surprising take. But then often it can be valuable to have things that are kind of obvious codified into a paper of some sort so that we no longer have to rely on "but isn't that obvious?" and can instead point to some primary source that actually explains what is true. That way it can be true for everyone, even the people for whom it wasn't already obvious.

The most foundational science is pretty obvious after all.
We all know that apples fall from trees and that banging 2 rocks together makes sparks.

Is there any evidence (yet?) of an autoimmune disease caused by the immune system accidentally attacking part of the micro-biome?

Not all rocks (at least using human strength)

It's obvious from apples falling from trees that gravity is actually the curvature of spacetime?

#10Where are we in the hype cycle regarding microbiome? Would it be feasible to launch a startup that leverages the synergy between AI, the blockchain and gut bacteria? I am serious!
