        That’s interesting. I wonder where the sunlight gets in to my stomach for all those plants to photosynthesize.

          That’s why you’re sick. You need to constantly be in the sun without sunscreen, look at RFK jr’s healthy glow as a good example of prime health.

          If you’re not feeding your tummy plants with the sunlight it needs you’re not living healthy.

          That’s why you have to occasionally stick your arse in the air on a sunny day. Do it near a school or local park. You’ll be fine, if anyone asks tell them JFK said to.

      Funny that in Spanish it’s called “flora intestinal”, not “fauna intestinal”. Always though that it’s a but of a misnomer.

        Intestinal flora is a common phrase in English, too. Or “gut flora”. It’s one of those old 19th century scientific phrases which has stuck around.

        Like this, err, gentleman (who apparently wants to drag us back to that past) we used to believe gut bacteria to be plant-based. Science caught up, but the term has had sticking power. It seems to be a favorite of marketers of probiotic supplements.

        “Microbiota” or just the straightforward “gut bacteria” would be more accurate and modern. But of course, everyone except for this guy already knows that.
