So this is an interesting article but I had to cringe at the use of "high fat diet" but then mentioned it was equivelant to "eating mc Donald's 3 meals a day".
Ok Science... Can we please differentiate high fat diet from highly processed non sense food diet? Geez

Love reading about all the stuff gut bacteria sort of regulate so it's a good read despite the annoying parts.

    The more I read about what lives in the gut and how key it is to good or bad state of health the more I realize that should have been my health focus 50 years ago but that was before the internet was invented and sights like MFP were possible.

    OK, I had to google the bug: lactobacillus reuteri

    And I found people buying surplus breast milk from craigslist to get it. Cool. B)

    It is in the the two brands of Probiotics that I alternate. I had to google it as well today. I am not going the breast milk route however to get it.
