RE: Type 2 Diabetes - The gut feeling that you might be a bacteria
This is a fascinating post @scienceblocks!

Wow! 😳
All the best to you and thank you for sharing this work! :)

I am planning on hitting the psychology metabolism axis in my next blog. I hope you like that as well. And thanks for reading and your time.
Oh, great! I am looking forward to reading your next blog already, then :)
Ps: Thank you very much for your kind words!
