human microbiomes.

Answer 2

We received about 23,000 genes from our parents, an insignificant number compared to the 3.3 million genes belonging to the bacteria housed in our bodies. Do not imagine that they are poor parasites waiting for an opportunity to invade the organism. Among other noble functions, bacteria release essential micronutrients, energy for daily consumption, regulate the immune system and protect us against virulent germs.

For this reason, we begin to question the real need for the use of antibacterial soaps because they decrease the population of beneficial and necessary bacteria to our body.
