Guest guest Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Interesting! The enzymes and bacteria working just like in stomachs to ward off unwanted invaders. Pasteurized its just like your stomach after antibiotics, open to more invaders because the good bacteria were killed with the bad.

The only bacteria I know of that chronically inhabit the stomach are H. pylori, and they've been implicated in ulcers and stomach cancer (although I have no idea how accurate that is).

I'm pretty sure the gamma rays from the Sun aren't powerful enough to go through you and kill the bacteria on the inside, though, and I'm pretty sure that you're not powerful enough to withstand radiation strong enough to kill bacteria inside you.
