Keep up the good gut vibes
Crowd out the negative

Mental health, specifically depression and the gut continued 🙂

This study specifically references the correlation between the bacteria morganella and depression. Morganella is a gram negative bacteria which essentially means it can be very pro-inflammatory to your body through the release of endotoxin or LPS. Morganella is typically acquired postoperatively or in a hospital setting and can be tested for on the GI Map.

There is way more interesting information surfacing around the micro and the macro, am following with keen interest

Life on earth is at risk for extinction because of our war against diversity.

Once you realize that you and the planet’s biodiversity are one, nothing less than a shift of identity follows.

An adage from ancient India, “As is the greatest, so is the smallest,” has never been truer.

Microbiome diversity is the foundation for health and longevity, while the destruction of this diversity is the beginning of chronic disease of every variety.

The adage could be expanded to “As is the outside, so is the inside.” The global microbiome functions as a communication network that actually passes electrical information throughout the cellular matrix to coordinate everything life needs to thrive at the cellular level, not simply nutrition and reproduction but repair and adaptation to changing conditions.

Nature is managing its own identity crisis now. Nature’s fluent communication network cannot be produced by a single species, but it can be threatened by one.

At the exact moment in history when our existence is being understood as one thread woven in the tapestry of life as a whole, we are tearing the fabric apart, and all life forms will suffer.

To give one instance, every year, over 4 billion pounds of glyphosate (the active ingredient in the most commonly used herbicides) is sprayed into our soil, water, air, and foods, sterilizing the microbiome and harming the creatures, including us, that the microbiome nourishes.

The scale of damage is too frightening to contemplate, much less measure. We must transform now. The victims of this war are standing right in front of us. The soil, wind, and water, the First Nations, African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, and the tide of refugees.

The world’s dispossessed and disenfranchised depend on us to emerge from our false assumed identity of superiority over and separateness from the whole of life.

Reconciliation can begin today. Train your mind and eye to seek out and cherish diversity in every element of your life.
