DESCRIPTION
Meet Your Bacteria introduces you to all of your tiny tenants, and reveals the fascinating inner workings of your body, and the importance of these usually helpful (but sometimes harmful) microbes. Highly topical and accessible, this book explores the different bacteria that live on and in various parts of your body (not just in the gut); explains what they do, and why some are beneficial and some harmful; offers practical advice for promoting the good and inhibiting the bad bacteria; and examines the latest thinking on good and bad dirt, and the links between bacteria and disease.
