The human gut contains bacteria that are colonized which are Actinobacteria, Verrucomicrobia, and Proteobacteria and Lactic acid bacteria. These bacteria help in regulation of immune response, detect and kill cancerous cells, disease prevention, and elimination of disease and cancer causing substances.
