English term or phrase: come along for the ride
Fatty acids aside, there is another important link between
our ancestors’ diets, inflammation and mental health. As we
evolved, the 100 trillion bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms
that colonize our bodies and constitute 90 percent of our
cells CAME ALONG FOR THE RIDE. This so-called microbiota—and its
collective genes, the microbiome—makes a critical contribution
to the formation and function of our digestion and immune system.
A growing number of findings now suggest that disrupting
it through poor eating habits comes at a cost to the brain.
