ANIMALS and our IMMUNE SYSTEM
Pigs have known for a long time, what doctors and scientists have just learned: dirt
is good for you. Well, at least some dirt. One recent Swiss study of eight hundred
children found that children who live on a farm close to cows, horses, geese and
other farm animals do not suffer from asthma and allergies later in life. The same
is true for city kids growing up with pets in the home such as dogs, cats, rabbits,
hamsters or even rats and mice. In both cases, scientists proved that children who
have more contact with dirt and animal waste develop a stronger disease fighting
immune system.
