i love that i come back in time for a ST board about bacteria.

my inner geek is giddy.

did you know there are nearly 9 times as many bacteria cells in and on your body than there are actual human cells?

that's all your skin, muscles, organs, blood, everything that isn't water or waste x 9 = your personal crew of bacteria

amazing
