This is a fun one.
Your intestinal bacterial profile is one of 3 main types:
Bacteroides (enterotype 1)
Prevotella (enterotype 2)
Ruminococcus (enterotype 3)
They seem to be largely a result of long-term dietary habits, though it’s a hot topic rife with viscous debate. Going with the enterotype idea…. Bacteroides – animal protein. Prevotella – carbohydrates. Ruminococcus – cellulose.
One of the things Ruminococcus produces is Acetate, which seems to be one of those good anti-cancer compounds. That’s why we should go out and chew on sticks.
