It's okay :) I'm glad you stopped by to read my post!

Sure, but I don't know precisely what a "natural balance" is! We don't know what a good microbial composition in the body actually is! We know what some bad agents are, but what ratios constitute good is so widely variable. I am hopeful that the large microbiome sequencing projects will yield some more useful information on that front in years to come, but for now the only thing we know is there is a lot more work to be done.
