Good research by dedicated scientists. Thank you everyone.

[@nerdytestln7161]

Your guest should not mix up asocial with antisocial. Autistic people do not need another misunderstanding.

[@alijawad2042]

Perfect. Thanks

Does this involve the vagus nerve in any way??

[@jellicle_kitten]

Really wanna get my hands on this bacteria.

[@firmbutton6485]

Interesting. More research to corroborate.

I love my father. My grandfather too. They were warned to never have surgery by a man, in order to reduce the risk of infection. Men will have a greater brain infection and behavioral aggressive disposition because of the impaired diversity of their microbial profiles in the brain, the gut, and every organ. Safe surgery and home must be done by women and must always have women decision-makers, to ensure against the costs of infection and better health and recovery by patients.

I am sensing BS somewhere here, it is just a hunch.

[@MandrakeFernflower]

The whole thing slightly reminds me of what that quack Wakefield had hypothesized - I feel like this study might end up becoming fodder for anti vaccine types

[@redhen689]

Why? Have you read the studies about fecal transplants or treatments of the microbiome as treatments for depression and/or insomnia?

[@patriciagiles5833]

Conclusions from a randomized double blind placebo controlled clinical trial is more than a hunch.
