I got the impression that the bacteria is in the waste material. That's why there was a doctor who did fecal transplants for people who didn't have enough of the right bacteria. And there are people who regularly take probiotic supplements because, supposedly, they don't have enough good bacteria. So I thought it might be a problem for some people to reestablish their full measure of gut flora.
