This bacteria is a little beneficial because it increases brain productivity but has a side effect, it drain a lot of energy. After many tests in the many countries, many different results have been collected. In France, many scientists decided to recreate the test in which they placed the bacteria on an alive guinea pig’s brain. The result were that the guinea pig were apparently getting smarter however that they were getting weaker and lost much of it’s energy and many of them died. In United State, one scientist named Henry Watterson heard about the bacteria and wondered if it might be a cure for Alzheimer’s so he decided to test the bacteria on five humans who had Alzheimer’s and compared the result with five other people with Alzheimer but not with the bacteria. In the test, the results were that Alzheimer disease destroyed this newly discovered bacteria first then the neurons and Henry realized that the subjects with the bacteria lost their intelligence and memory much slower than the subjects without it, but he did see that subjects with bacteria did loss a lot of energy. Tests on this bacteria are still happening today and even though the bacteria does slow down Alzheimer, many governments including the US ban the use of the bacteria until we know everything about the
