A new research from Northwestern University suggests that parents should take ease on antibacterial soap and should actually allow their little babies to play in the mud — or at least a much better acquaintance with everyday germs.
The study is the first to look at how microbial exposures near the beginning in life affect seditious processes related to diseases linked with aging in maturity.
Most provocatively, the Northwestern study suggests that experience to contagious microbes early in life may actually protect individuals from cardiovascular diseases that can lead to death as an adult.
The research suggests that inflammatory systems may need a higher level of exposure to common everyday bacteria and microbes to guide their development. “In other words, inflammatory networks may need the same type of microbial exposures early in life that have been part of the human environment for all of our evolutionary history to function optimally in adulthood,” said McDade, also a member of Northwestern’s Cells to Society (C2S).
