New conclusions are coming as I search for scientific knowledge in microbiology and dare to put it into words. We are made from aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria. Strict anaerobes appear most in compacted soil and dead intestines, but also in vital digestive organs, causing the release of combustible gases such as methane.

Aerobic exercise releases carbon dioxide. It is very difficult to monitor exercise if you use the wrong method of investigation. If you try to reproduce them in a farm dish by offering them sugars, they can multiply so quickly that they die from lack of oxygen or overheating.

In a bright field microscope, you can hardly see them because they are confused with water. To get an idea of ​​its significance, scholar Elaine Ingham, a reference in this column, tells the following story:

The oyster farming business was going badly because oysters didn’t grow and why. When tissue samples were taken from weakened oysters and compared to healthy oysters, there was no difference. However, when comparing samples in dark-field microscopy, healthy oysters had aerobic bacteria in their tissues, such as Cristispira, which did not happen with non-grown oysters from commercial cultivation.

It turns out that these bacteria only grow in very unpolluted environments, without petrochemical residues, and adequate levels of oxygen. In water that receives sewage or treatment, and in most water that reaches the taps of Brazilians, according to a recent survey by Repórter Brasil, there are biomaterials derived from the addition of chlorine, fluorine, or minerals such as aluminum. Oxygen is consumed by biological and chemical decomposition. Persistent metals and organic pollutants can build up in animal fats, causing disease.

The oyster farm was located downstream (downstream) and the water used showed contamination from treated and sewage. The business had to be closed. It would not be possible to successfully grow oysters in this water quality.

Similarly, according to the Soil Food Web School in Elaine Ingham, vegetables that are high in aerobic bacteria that cover their leaves and roots are more resistant to pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and fungi or root-eating nematodes. This has been proven in the field by many farms that adopt the Elaine method of aerobic fertilization and triple their yield.
