Bacteria are abundant in the intestines due to the more favorable environment for their growth, including a neutral pH and a nutrient-rich environment. In contrast, the stomach has a highly acidic environment (with a low pH) that is hostile to most bacteria, which helps kill potential pathogens. Additionally, the rapid passage of food through the stomach limits the time available for bacterial colonization.
