Cultured from damp
feet, these bacteria,
attached here to a fiber,
thrive in sweat, which

a breeding ground for
odoriferous microbes.
More sweat glands are
concentrated on our
palms and on the soles
of our feet than any-
where else.

other species of bac-
teria and fungi are also
found there. Like the
microbiome inside, the
microbes outside vary
from person to person.
