If we consider even at a lower level, it means that at least 36 lakh crore organisms are migrating in and out of our bodies all the time. They provide all the elements required for their survival from our body and while living their leisure life, they also carry forward their species. These invisible companions of ours can be seen only through a microscope. It is estimated that there are 2000 to 10,000 different species of organisms including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, fungi etc. Earlier this year (2024) the presence of a new type of organism in the gut was described that resembles a virus but is much more microscopic. These organisms are present inside and outside every part of our body. Like our skin, mouth, nose, eyes, ears, airways, stomach, intestines, lungs etc. It is estimated that 700 types of bacteria live in our mouth. There are 15 million bacteria and other organisms having fun on our skin all the time. The group of organisms resident in each organ is unique. These groups of organisms are called microbiomes. As a baby grows, his or her microbiome continues to grow, develop and change. The greatest variety and diversity of these organisms is found in our intestines, where most of the body's 3.6 trillion organisms are estimated to live here.
companionship relationship
Nature doesn't waste anything. Every creature and plant has mutual relation and dependence on each other – whether we can understand this or it is not our own incompetence and uselessness. The organisms that grow on and inside us play a very important role in our lives and in keeping us healthy and we cannot remain healthy without them. This is a relationship of mutual benefit for both parties.
Inside the human body, these organisms get an all-round safe environment where they can live a comfortable life in a calm and positive environment. These organisms inhabit ecological niches in the body where disease organisms would reside in their absence. In this way, these organisms fight disease-causing organisms and prevent them from settling within us.
There is a balance of good and bad organisms in the body. If this Sawan-Karna is interrupted due to any reason, we become surrounded by diseases. Apart from maintaining this balance, these organisms also perform many other functions.
Bacteria are helpful for digestion
Our body cannot digest many types of food on its own, such as fibrous vegetables, complex or complex carbohydrates. These bacteria sitting in the intestines break down such food items with their action and make them digestible. The chemicals released from these organisms affect almost all the internal processes of our body. Various types of diseases like cancer, heart, intestine, stomach, kidney and brain diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's), lung and respiratory diseases, diabetes, skin diseases, asthma, allergies, anxiety, depression etc. The role of these internal organisms is explained. An important role through their chemical components.
biodiversity is important
Our sexual makeup, daily diet, lifestyle, climate, emotions, exercise, stress, anxiety, happiness all interact with these organisms and determine how our internal organisms function. What will be the health and diversity and composition of their herds, and how will they affect our physiological functions. If we eat a healthy and varied diet and live in a clean environment, these organisms will be more diverse and protect us from disease-causing germs while maintaining proper balance in the body. If we eat too much processed mechanized food and other such things, our organisms are not healthy.
Our diet protects us from many diseases
The close harmony of our sexual structure with the organisms that inhabit us and the close relationship of the composition and specificity of the population of organisms with our diet make us think that it is our diet that protects us from many diseases. Two examples make this point clear. There is a nomadic tribe called Raika in Rajasthan in which the prevalence of type 1 diabetes is very high but the incidence of this disease is very low among the people of this tribe. Scientists believe that their diet (especially camel milk) and lifestyle are playing an important role. Similarly, in some towns in Argentina, some tribes are living healthily in places where the amount of a toxic substance 'samza' in the natural resources, even in water, is so high that the environment is so dangerous for the common man. It is poisonous. I have a double. Such natural protection and adaptations develop over centuries.
Forgotten Healthy Food Heritage
If we look at our own Punjab, especially Malwa, where cancer has been increasing at an alarming rate for some time, then we have to think whether our changed food habits and climate are not responsible for this? The kind of food, vegetables, fruits etc. that we have been eating here for centuries, do they have any healthy relation with our sexual structure and those organisms inside us that protect our body from cancer etc.? A look at the foods and recipes we've forgotten or lost reveals that many of them had natural anti-inflammatory properties; And many of them are also used in Ayurvedic or indigenous medicine. These properties are not present in wheat, rice and commonly used vegetables. The list of those missing from Punjab and from our daily food includes: Bathu, Chulai, Tandla-Salara, Bhakra, Kulfa, Lasude, Kortumbe, Tukke, Gharaunda, Jhar Karela, Kurgandal, Suhanjana Beans, Dele, Chibbard, Bhen, Aule, Rangi, Jowar, Bajra, Nimolian, Goli Ber, Mulberry, Mulberry, Falsa, Jamon etc.
Due to mechanization we Punjabis have forgotten our healthy food heritage and have indulged in the taste of fast food, ready-made dub-band dishes, pizza, burgers, manchurian, momos, noodles, pasta etc. and have also spoiled our inner life partners. Has spoiled. We have said and are saying 'Welcome' to diseases.
