Hi Mathew -

 

It is curious that although they say

 

The modern loss of appendix function appears to coincide with an

increased number of appendicitis cases. Appendicitis most often occurs

when the small entrance to the appendix becomes blocked.

 

The researchers or reporters also can't seem to look at the connection

between blockage and modern processed foods and sedentary lifestyle

doing the blocking or weakening the digestion into creating ama -

instead deducing (last sentence) that modern life doesn't need the

appendix. sounds like a good service to me, and here's wishing I

still had one.

excerpts

 

It is now believed that the function of the appendix is to regenerate

and store the helpful bacteria.

 

The organ is thought to have been more useful centuries ago when

people lived farther apart and cholera and dysentery epidemics

occurred frequently. The gut is full of good bacteria that aid in

digestion, but diseases such as cholera and amoebic dysentery can

clear out these microbes. In today's society, the appendix is no

longer needed because outbreaks of cholera and dysentery seldom occur,

and people can repopulate their intestinal bacteria through contact

with other humans.

 

Duke surgery Professor Bill Parker said that the rate of appendicitis

is lower in less developed countries where the appendix is still

useful in helping to protect good bacteria.

 

This suggests that there is a correlation between the relatively high

rate of appendicitis and the lack of appendix function in developed

countries.
