We are “Bacteriosapiens”

You might be asking yourself, “What in the world is a “bacteriosapien”?” Or perhaps this term intuitively resonates due to all of the information you’ve absorbed about the human microbiome! No matter where you fall on the spectrum, succinctly, this term encapsulates what I perceive to be the innate relationship between bacteria and human beings.

Ever since I first started learning about the human microbiome over 20 years ago, ancient wisdom encoded in my DNA (and yours too) began to burble up to the surface of my consciousness. It’s truly amazing to tap into billions of years of change and evolution simply by tuning in.
