Scientific background: There are several studies out there that say that obesity is caused in part by the resident gut flora you got. Chubby people and chubby mice both foster bacteria that helps us get more out of our food ( Read more... )

I'm shocked, SHOCKED to discover you have sexual boundaries.

On another note, there are a lot of issues to explore -- relative genetic fitness of different gut flora in different environments, and which gut flora play a role in the absorption of what nutrients. You wouldn't want to kill off flora that are responsible for extracting vitamins.

:P I totally have sexual boundaries. I don't lick bum, I don't... hm, what else don't I do?

oh yes, no water sports, no scat, triple penetration really seems a like a bit too much.

never been into necrophilia or very large age differences or nonhuman animals or or or... plenty of other stuff I just can't think of right now ;)

and yes, lots of issues. You're thinking good things. :)

Is triple penetration into a single orifice really possible? It seems like you'd need small guys with very long, very skinny cocks to pull that one off.

I don't watch porn. Maybe other people know the answer to this.

Hmm... you'd basically have to severely reduce your numbers of your existing gut flora in order for the new ones to take hold, though, right?

maybe. it's really not known, though I do imagine antibiotic treatment might help.

there's also "prebiotics" which is a tablet of some funny sugar or other carbon source that only the bacteria you want to grow can eat, that way it'll have an advantage over competitors.

Interestingly enough, I saw an article a couple days ago which basically stated that some European regulatory agency had rejected all pro-biotic claims presented to it regarding yogurt.

Oh, wait, you said "prebiotics", not "probiotics". It makes more sense now. :-)

I've got an ecology class in there, so it's possible. Next time throw something at me and I'll give you silly amounts of hugs, since we haven't seen each other in approximately a billion years :)
