today we’re going to talk about why you can’t live  without viruses okay very interesting topic what  

would happen if all the viruses on this planet  right now completely disappeared well guess what  

within a short period of time this planet would  not survive there are quite a few viruses on  

this planet in fact there’s a quadrillion  quadrillion individual viruses that is 10  

nonillion viruses that’s 10 to the 31st power  if you took a look at how large that number is  

if you took all the stars in the galaxy times  100 million you’d get the number of viruses  

on this planet so there’s quite a few the  vast majority and i’m talking about 99.9999  

of all viruses are not pathogenic they don’t  cause disease they’re vital to our ecosystem  

in the oceans on the lands in the rain forest  they’re pretty much everywhere and another name  

for viruses are called phages certain viruses or  phages infect bacteria they prevent the bacterial  

population from exploding if there weren’t  viruses you would have massive amounts of bacteria  

that would create a whole other series of problems  without viruses you wouldn’t get the biodiversity  

of microbial life viruses help to ensure oxygen  producing phytoplankton get nutrients so 50  

of all the oxygen on this planet comes from  phytoplankton from the oceans so without viruses  

we wouldn’t have oxygen and also viruses help  build our acquired immunity we have the innate  

immunity and then we also have the acquired which  actually is created through a learning experience  

of being exposed and dealing with viruses and also  did you know that our own dna has over a hundred  

thousand pieces of viral dna so viruses have  intermingled with our own dna for a very very  

long time viruses are a part of our microbiome  so the whole purpose of a virus is to survive it  

doesn’t necessarily want to kill the host right  away it wants to survive it wants to figure  

out the strategies of our body trying to kill  it and adapt to survival mechanisms itself  

so viruses are constantly evolving adapting and  becoming less deadly over time let’s take the h1n1  

influenza virus i think it’s actually influenza a  that existed in 1918 as the spanish flu now that  

killed 50 million people worldwide but that virus  is still around to some degree nowadays but it’s  

not nearly as deadly as it was back then because  viruses over time become less deadly and so  

viruses have a good side and they have a bad side  but the solution the best solution for viruses  

is to keep your own immune system extremely strong  and if you’re new to my channel i’ve done a lot of  

videos on this vitamin d is very very important  zinc is vital vitamin c is also very important  

i put a link down below to help you understand  how to create a healthy immune system and what  

you can do right now thanks for watching before  you go if you have a question about a product  

or you’re new to keto and you want to know  how to begin keto or you’re on keto and you  

need a debug because it’s not going as smooth i  have a keto consultant standing by to help you
