Fredrik Bäckhed is a guest on the Nobel Prize Museum’s podcast “Ideas that change the world” (podcast in Swedish)

Life in the gut is the focus of a new episode of the Nobel Prize Museum’s podcast “Ideas that change the world”. Our guts are full of bacteria, and they play a bigger role in our lives than you might think. In fact, the gut functions as its own ecosystem inside us, where more bacteria live than there are human cells in our bodies. The microbiologist Professor Fredrik Bäckhed talks to Gustav Källstrand at the Nobel Prize Museum and talks about the gut bacteria and the role they play in our health – because how the gut flora both affects and is affected by how the rest of the body feels.
