We all know that different things work for different people.
I know I sometime get a little too adimant that my way is the RIGHT WAY.
I found this on Google News.

About how people have different ECOSYSTEMS in there digestive tract.
So far they've found 3 main types, they seem to be a genetically determined, like eye color.
They think it's a major factor in control how we metabolize food and absorb vitamins.
Wouldn't it be cool if this info could help determine what type of diet would work best for you.
How much is psychological, how much is physical???
An interesting read
