Scientists create bacteria Bank in the event of the Apocalypse

Scientists have talked about creating a “Noah’s ark” for storing “good” bacteria in case of the Apocalypse. He must protect humanity from future diseases.

In recent years science has received a lot of evidence of the huge role played by intestinal bacteria in various body functions, ranging from immunity and ending with the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. An increasing number of studies show that the microbiome of the intestine depend on numerous aspects of our health, and these little microorganisms are of utmost importance for each of us. That’s why researchers decided to create a kind of “Noah’s ark” of beneficial intestinal bacteria in order to use it to preserve for future generations the vital bacteria contained in the human body. It must be done as soon as possible, before it’s too late.

This idea already has one incarnation in the form of the Institute Svalbard Global Seed Vault in Norway, which is more than 1 million samples of intestinal bacteria. Here they are collected for a rainy day or in case of the Apocalypse in which mankind has for some reason been deprived of these young defenders. Join the global microbiota from the different members of the population to maintain its diversity. Scientists do not exclude that in the future under the influence of antibiotics, processed foods or other aspects of modern society, humanity will lose some of the gut bacteria.

Now the same Bank beneficial microorganisms create and researchers from Rutgers University. Magicforum resembles that in the human body reside trillions of microbes, many of which provide us good health. However, in urbanized society, the diversity of bacteria is constantly decreasing. For example, most Americans intestinal microflora is half of what is observed among residents of isolated indigenous villages in Amazonia. All of this suggests that the number of beneficial bacteria in humanity is decreasing, and they must be preserved for future generations. (READ MORE)
