Sick people go to the hospital to get well, but there’s now even more scientific evidence confirming that a visit to the hospital may a person even worse-off than they were to begin with. And now we know why. A brand new study was released that has discovered that gut flora is reduced dramatically within DAYS of someone entering the hospital environment. The researchers reported that some of the patient microbiomes resembled the microbiomes of corpses.
Just to be clear this means that the colonies of health promoting bacteria present in these patients were at the level of a dead body rather than a living human being.
