The scientific staff of the American University of Texas, located in Austin, proved that the intestinal microflora in humans is inherited.
In previous years, scientists believed that germs can enter the body only from the outside. Also a large amount of bacteria people have inherited from the great apes, according to Darwin’s theory of evolution.
The study of the evolution of the internal intestinal microbes that live in humans, was completed. The study was conducted for a long time under the guidance of Professor versed in the issues of invertebrate biology, Howard Ochman, he was also the chair of the Department at Austin, the University of Texas.
Also involved his graduate students, together with specialists from the University of California. Scientists have identified the main groups of intestinal microorganisms, which could help the body fight pathogenic organisms.
