Host/terrain theory teaches that your state of health or disease is dependent upon how well or poorly you develop and maintain your inner terrain. It speaks of the microbiome (the community of bacteria inside of you). Many people have heard of the microbiome, but how many have heard of the virome? The virome is to viruses just as the microbiome is to bacteria. Both are fundamental to who we are and our state of health. These small companions are present in our body in massive numbers: the number of bacteria in our body outnumber the ‘human’ cells in our body at a 10:1 ratio, while the virome is estimated to contain 380 trillion viruses.

I told my husband to get tested for EBV and we both have it. Every time we talk about a virus, I tell him we are full of these guys.

Trace, now that so many of us have destroyed our gut microbiome, it’s extremely sad to think about Big Pharma seeking to make anti-viral vaccines mandatory when we know even less about our virome.
