Hi Mostlysunny. This suggests there are small bugs in our cells, smaller than viruses. If, they are essentially host commensals, which they may be, then the situation that would put them out of balance would be PH differential. Then, the same principals apply as when the gut microbial environment goes out of whack. I would like to see these microbes. I wonder if there are drawings or photo's. Guess I can google it. Shroom
