For lack of a better term...

...why can't there be created some mregs ("germ" spelled backwards)? Why should we just have germs which harm us, and have to exercise, eat healthily, and do Spiritual cleanliness and empowerment? Why can't someone create good germs which work for our benefit? Bad germs are like bad energies; why not create good-energy germs for us? Of course, good bacteria do exist, but why cannot we create some beneficial ones?

I've wondered this before and frankly it is possible. It'd just take some considerable knowledge of bacterial genetics and a scientific institute managed entirely by Satanic Gentiles, given the potential for severe harm.

Our microbiome has many bacteria, some deeply entrenched in our skin and others in our intestinal tract, which do helpful things like slow the growth or even kill pathogenic bacteria. This is a wonderful and fascinating thing but it does, at the same time, provide difficulties for the introduction of new, beneficial bacteria. Testing would need to be done to see how the new, created bacteria interact with the healthy, established ones. Then there's the consideration of how much of this new bacteria is healthy, as it could be a situation in which excess amounts of it result in nutritional/bacterial deficiency because they consumed too much as their numbers in the body grew. Or some similar type of complication dependent on the nature of the new bacteria.

There's a bunch of factors like these to consider when attempting to engineer new little life-things - all sorts of possibilities for pro/antibiotics - but I enjoy the idea nevertheless.

Probiotics, there's a lot of them. And more of them do get invented and modified. Like with termites eating wood, they can only do it because a bacteria in their gut breaks down the cellulose into a form that they can digest. Scientists grew some termites that did not have this bacteria, and they starved because they couldn't eat the wood.

They invent new germs that are made to create chemicals and enzymes. They have genetically designed algae and bacterias that use sunlight and produce fuels and alcohols. The citric acid that is an additive in millions of foods and drinks, it comes from a kind of mold that was created to produce a lot of citric acid. They do things like this to create and mass-produce a lot of biological chemicals and enzymes, they put the gene code for producing the chemical into a common and very simple bacteria, then they grow a container of this bacteria and collect the chemical that the bacterias make.

I didn't consider these probiotic (insert brand name here) products to be that. I also never thought enzymes were the same either. I thought enzymes were more like a chemical compound, like E-numbers or something, rather than actual manufactured germs. I suppose thinking about yeast, it might make sense to do the same for other products and ingredients, both Human-(ingestible)-consumable and useable. As for the probiotics, while they would be (((regulated))), it is still relying on (((current))) industrial-manufactured growth and alleged-benefits.

Sorry, Powstanie Pogańskie, but you reminded me of an article I read a bit about, which says faeces transplants are helpful because it's like a medicine thing...

Are you perhaps talking about that shit - no pun intended - where people consume capsules with dehydrated fecal matter inside?

Their justification for this actually does incorporate healthy gut bacteria, but I find it preferable that we under no circumstances unlearn the don't-eat-boom-boom rule. One of the benefits of advanced genetic fuckery like OAL was providing examples of is we can get access to healthy bacteria without eating shit.

Due to (sh)it having bacteria from the individual, consuming someone else's might bring nasties into oneself which they are not inoculated from. I suppose eating your own wouldn't matter, seeing as it came out of you... It's also like both Human and Animal waste being used as fertiliser...

Enzymes are kind of like a chemical compound. Enzymes are proteins that work on molecules, they either build the molecules together, or some of them break the molecules apart. They are not a germ. But it would be impossible to create an enzyme by only chemical reactions, because it is a living biological material. So they take a simple harmless bacteria, something like lacto-bacillus, and they change it's DNA, they insert a code that tells the bacteria how to build this enzyme. So now they have a new race of bacteria that is really great at building this enzyme, or chemical, or whatever they want to make, and they grow a big colony of this bacteria, and each one of them has some of this chemical in them because they all make it.

Then the last step, there is probably a lot of ways that they can do this, but I think they spin the container of bacteria in a centrifuge so all the chemicals come apart and organize themselves by weight since they are all different density, then they suck out the layer that is the chemical or enzyme that they want. Or maybe they don't need to do that, maybe the bacteria just spits it out like how yeast spits out alcohol. Then they just put the liquid through a small filter and take out the chemical they wanted, and the bacteria doesn't get through the filter because it's bigger.

Simple bacterias are basically little factories, they take in ingredients and build them together into another object. Similar to enzymes in that way, but they can do more jobs than an enzyme. Every kind of enzyme basically has one job it is good at, maybe a couple jobs. Like some of them do the same process in both forward and reverse, both building and destroying the same object and the same components that the object comes from. But a bacteria can be coded to do multiple different jobs, it can build many different kinds of things, and it always increases more copies of itself to do even more work all the time and always producing larger amounts. So an engineered bacteria is really the greatest kind of tool for making any kind of biological chemicals or materials.

We have mregs inside us.
