Most nasty microbes are stopped in our gut by healthy micro flora. When our system becomes unbalanced, these unchecked microbes can leak out into our blood stream to our normally uninhabited organs and tissues causing infections. This would have some bearing as to why most fibro suffers always have one organ in their body that causes them issues. Furthermore, these same microbes can inhabit joints and connective tissues causing inflammation. Keeping our intenstinal flora intact can prevent such infections.
