Show Notes

“In two to five years, I think there's going to be a lot more known about that jigsaw puzzle. There's an extremely low risk pursuit to do this biodiverse orientated gardening, and it's probably got immune benefits via gut microbiota and other pathways. “

We are talking about the microbiome and Dr. Martin Breed helps us imagine the microscopic, the microbiome inhabits, the soil, the air, and ultimately breaks into our own personal space to connect our bodies to everything around us.

Martin Breed is a lecturer in biology at Flinders University, in Adelaide, South Australia.
