[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. What you are describing is generally called the "hygiene hypothesis" and generally it says that because modern parents are able to clean their children and households more effectively, kids these days just aren’t exposed to the same level of germs as previous generations. And generally, it's incorrect. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1448690/ https://rightasrain.uwmedicine.org/well/health/hygiene-hypothesis What we have seen is a change in diet and other factors that has led to many changes, and which we'll never be able to get back.
