17. That's called feeding a fad with marketing based on shaky "cutting edge" medicine...

apparently the amount of bacteria in our gut is greatly exaggerated, and while its absence and/or imbalance probably can be linked to things like IBS or other types of digestive track issues, there's not a whole lot of evidence that it will kill you to have imbalanced gut bacteria. Oh, and here's the most important bit, what does Monsanto have to do with this? The most common reasons to have problems with gut bacteria is due to antibiotic misuse/abuse.

Seriously, is Monsanto the one corporation to rule them all? This is getting ridiculous, they are the "Thanks Obama" of the left. Its stupid.
