It harbours around 100 trillion bacteria of over 1000 different species. A healthy digestive system depends on keeping the “friendly bacteria” far outnumbering the “bad” bacteria. Factors such as stress, lack of sleep, antibiotics, illness, ageing, and eating habits can alter the types and number of bacteria.
