JAKARTA – Some scientists build special warehouses full of human excrement from all over the world that can be used to bring humans back from the brink extinction . The warehouse, called The Microbiota Vault, accepts all feces or excrement from all humans wherever they are.

The Vault of Microbiota is currently run by a group of scientists from the University of Zurich. They received all human stool samples from Ethiopia and Puerto Rico.

Adrian Egli from the University of Zurich explained the reason for the stool collection. According to him, the most endangered organisms on earth actually live in the human intestine. From there they try to examine all the feces produced by humans wherever they are.

“So we have to try to preserve it,” Adrian Egli said as quoted by the Daily Mail.

According to him, there are about 30 trillion cells in the human body. It contains a much larger microbiome, as it has 39 trillion microbial cells such as bacteria, viruses and fungi.

The presence of microbomes serves to break down the food we eat and to absorb important nutrients such as vitamins and minerals. Additionally, the microbiome can also replenish the lining of the gut and skin to repair damaged cells and replace dead cells with new ones.

Recently, another function of the microbiome has been revealed. Its existence is even more important for human well-being. That’s because the microbiome is linked to depression, immune response, memory loss and life expectancy.

The group of microbiomes that perform this function is known as the gut microbiota. It’s just that the makeup of gut microbiota formation depends on the food consumption, drugs, exercise style, stress levels, and sleep that humans do on their own.
