So why isn't this being done for humans? $$$ 💵💵💰💰

Another reason for farmers to stop using chemicals.
Interactions in the laboratory prove that the soil is home to organisms that are striving to survive and in the process, make use of chemical signals to communicate with each other. nexusnewsfeed.com/article/se…
