Gut instincts...they are achanging! Since World War II, weve seen big rises in a number of diseases: asthma, allergies, food allergies, wheat allergy, juvenile diabetes, obesity. ... These are all diseases that have gone up dramatically in the last 50 or 70 years. One of the questions is: Why are they going up? Are they going up for 10 different reasons, or perhaps there is one reason that is fueling all of them. My theory is that the one reason is the changing microbiome; that we evolved a certain stable situation with our microbiome and with the modern advances of modern life, including modern medical practices, we have been disrupting the microbiome. And theres evidence for that, especially early in life, and its changing how our children develop. npr.org/2014/04/14/302899093/modern-medicine-may-not-be-doing-your-microbiome-any-favors
