This is a good article on importance of beneficial bacteria in newborns and premature infants, and how interventions with probiotics can help. When my twins were born at 25 weeks, 15 weeks early, (https://www.huffingtonpost.com//adventures-of-a-preterm-d_), I tried many times to convey this idea to the head of the NICU (NeoNatal Intensive Care Unit) at Cedars Sinai Hospital, to no avail. Antibiotics are still their preferred way of dealing with everything, and not just one ...antibiotic, but two or three at a time. The necrotizing enterocolitis mentioned in this article resulted in about half the NICU babies at Cedars requiring surgery for ruptured intestines, and not from bacteria, but due to the antibiotics weakening intestinal walls that were already thin. That was almost 9 years ago and there was good evidence on the use of probiotics in babies at that time, but no shift in hospital policy since then. It's a good article and a little on the long side for many people. In the first sentence, it mentions fungi as being a part of the normal bacterial flora of babies, which is something that isn't typically seen in such articles, as medicine and research primarily view the gut in terms of bacteria and not other microbes. That is slowly changing, as candida and other microbes can have a tremendous impact on shaping the bacterial flora of the body.

"The foundations of a healthy diet need to become a much more prominent part of education than they are at present. Only in this way can we immunize children at an early stage against the temptations of the food industry. Children have a choice of what they eat every day. We should enable them to make conscious decisions regarding their dietary habits." Fast food makes the immune system more aggressive in the long term https://www.sciencedaily.com/releas/2018//180111141637.htm
