Your videos are awesome, it's always amazing to learn more about this huge and at the same time tiny universe we're made of, and in a way we were made by.

Great video but left me wondering if there's a difference between the microbes of the necrobiome and flesh eating bacteria since they both seem to thrive in the absence of a functioning immune system. Inquiring minds want to know ;-)

Great question, and this brings up an interesting point. It is true, being immunocompromised opens up opportunities to many pathogenic viruses, bacteria, and fungi, including those responsible for necrotizing fasciitis (flesh-eating bacteria). One distinction that could be made is that once a body becomes a corpse, microbes that are no longer considered pathogens...they are decomposers! These decomposers come from various sources and play different roles in decomposition. For instance, while a corpse is still in the “fresh” and “bloat” stages, microbes that were part of the internal microbiome are actively breaking down body tissue - these may even include pathogens being harbored in the body. There may also be an influx of new microbes introduced from the environment that aid in decomposition, including microbes that would otherwise not be invading the body while it was alive.

Hey, I asked you a question a long time ago, of practical importance in my opinion, and I still haven't heard from you. How can I adapt my gut to a new country's food quickly and easily? What are the issues involved? I want to avoid "the runs".
