Bacteria is not in the kingdom plantae.
Your stomach micro biome is plants.
That’s interesting. I wonder where the sunlight gets in to my stomach for all those plants to photosynthesize.
Rfk seems to think the sun shines out his asshole.
He thinks so, but, no that's just a mysterious emissive liquid that he drinks every morning.
"We all need sunshine"
Use the same covid UV lamp as was inserted in 2020.
That's why you have to occasionally stick your arse in the air on a sunny day. Do it near a school or local park. You'll be fine, if anyone asks tell them JFK said to.
*RFK
That's why you're sick. You need to constantly be in the sun without sunscreen, look at RFK jr's healthy glow as a good example of prime health.
If you're not feeding your tummy plants with the sunlight it needs you're not living healthy.
"You're" means "you are". "Your" means "belonging to you".
Thanks, I forget to proofread my comments
"my sick?"
Vampires are about to start a protest.
hes overbaked from the tanning salon.
You eat it, duh!
Drink Capri Sun and sunny d
Non organic plants at that
Funny that in Spanish it's called "flora intestinal", not "fauna intestinal". Always though that it's a but of a misnomer.
Intestinal flora is a common phrase in English, too. Or "gut flora". It's one of those old 19th century scientific phrases which has stuck around.
Like this, err, gentleman (who apparently wants to drag us back to that past) we used to believe gut bacteria to be plant-based. Science caught up, but the term has had sticking power. It seems to be a favorite of marketers of probiotic supplements.
"Microbiota" or just the straightforward "gut bacteria" would be more accurate and modern. But of course, everyone except for this guy already knows that.
Did he read/hear about gut flora somewhere, and get his eggs scrambled?
there is valid science in gut microbiome, the Pseudoscience take on is, the "leaky gut, or inflammatory diet bs.
We also just call it "gut flora" in english too
Funny that you believe RFK Jr believes in bacteria. Dude doesn't believe in germ theory
Well it's only a theory has anyone actually met a germ?
Germs are just dirty microscopes. Have you ever seen one with the naked eye?
There's a whole country
