Guest guest Posted August 14, 2001 Report Share Posted August 14, 2001 The gut organisms can become such a potentially great threat to our well being that, in recognition of this, most of our immune cells and glands are located in and around the intestinal tract. These numerous lymph-node glands and immune cells are there to prevent the invasion of intestinal bacteria (and other organisms) into the body itself. However, there are times when even the massive intestinal immune system is overwhelmed by the presence of harmful intestinal germs. When this happens, disease or ill health results. The key appears to be maintain and support intestinal health! Just something I found. LIZ D --- rabbitbrain@... --- EarthLink: It's your Internet.
