More Info

A feature documentary about the quest to protect and restore our human microbiome – all the good bacteria in our bodies. Many of our ancestral microbes have been passed from mother to child for thousands of years. In the last five decades, 50% of our microbes have been destroyed by overuse of antibiotics and elective C-sections, leading to skyrocketing increases in illnesses like allergies, asthma, diabetes, inflammatory bowel diseases and, surprisingly, obesity. Losing our “good bugs” has made us increasingly vulnerable to infections. If these trends continue, the health problems we’re seeing now will get much worse.
