Early Exposure to Germs Has Lasting Benefits
24th March 2012
Exposure to germs in childhood is thought to help strengthen the immune system and protect children from developing allergies and asthma, but the pathways by which this occurs have been unclear. Now, researchers have identified a mechanism in mice that may explain the role of exposure to microbes in the development of asthma and ulcerative colitis, a common form of inflammatory bowel disease.
No doubt this explains the robust health that kids in the ga-hetto have always enjoyed. Or maybe having yo momma on crack is not what they meant.
