 There is no evidence to suggest that the introduction of additional organisms with their DNA and RNA could have any long-term benefit.  There is no evidence to suggest that the introduction of additional organisms with their DNA and RNA could have any long-term benefit. 
  
-In fact, the [[home:pathogenesis:horizontal_gene|horizontal gene transfer]] of DNA and RNA between organisms represents the primary mechanism by which the microbiota causing Th1 disease accumulates its pathogenic capability. Adding new pathogens only increases statistical risk: the practice might reduce overall pathogenicity or it might increase it. +Indeed, the [[home:pathogenesis:horizontal_gene|horizontal gene transfer]] of DNA and RNA between organisms represents the primary mechanism by which the microbiota causing Th1 disease accumulates its pathogenic capability.
