"But if Flegr is right, the “latent” parasite may be quietly tweaking the connections between our neurons, changing our response to frightening situations, our trust in others, how outgoing we are, and even our preference for certain scents. And that’s not all. He also believes that the organism contributes to car crashes, suicides, and mental disorders such as schizophrenia. When you add up all the different ways it can harm us, says Flegr, “Toxoplasma might even kill as many people as malaria, or at least a million people a year.”"

"for four weeks, 12 of [the participants of the study group] ate a cup of commercially available yogurt twice a day, while the rest didn’t. Yogurt is a probiotic, meaning it contains live bacteria, in this case strains of four species, bifidobacterium, streptococcus, lactococcus, and lactobacillus. Before and after the study, subjects were given brain scans to gauge their response to a series of images of facial expressions—happiness, sadness, anger, and so on.

To Mayer’s surprise, the results, which were published in 2013 in the journal Gastroenterology, showed significant differences between the two groups; the yogurt eaters reacted more calmly to the images than the control group. “The contrast was clear,” says Mayer."

Pagaidām izlasīju tikai pirmo. Nevaru pateikt, vai manī ir šis parazīts. Pārgalvigi neuzvedos. Bet, ja kaķis var inficēt tikai k kādā 3nedēļu periodā, bet inficēta ir trešdaļas populācijas( disclaimer, ja neko nejaucu), tad es minētu, ka lielākoties inficēšanās notikusi ne caur mājas kaķiem tiešā veidā, bet citos rakstā pieminētajos veidos.
Citādi raksts paceļ seno jautājumu, kas "es" esmu, un, cik no tā ir manas baktērijas, slimības un citas novirzes. Tb
, ja viss šis taptu skaidrs, vai tad cilvēki medicīniski tiktu normalizēti un kļūtu vienādi?
