We are more than a Petri Dish! Part 2: Symbiosis

Symbiosis is the way in which organisms live together for their mutual, and therefore, intrinsic benefit. In just one area, the human being has a symbiotic relationship with the microbiome, which are commensal organisms that live with us. The various flora play roles in the structural integrity of the organism to prevent the entry of noncommensal organisms. They play functional roles in metabolism, immunity, adaptation, and adaptability. They also play structuro-functional roles. For example, in the intestines are receptors for hypothalamic and pituitary hormones that adapt the functioning of the local colonic flora to alter the rate of nutrient and fluid reclamation. This is a key mechanism of adapting nutrient availability to the endobiogenic demands of the organism. Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher asks you to consider that we exist to live with other creatures in our environment! Period! Including bacteria or viruses.  None of these facts are in the media or spoken by our so called leaders.   We should be studying the strong and healthy and follow their example.
