Our own fecal bacteria are typically kept in check by the body's immune system and the balance of other bacteria in the gut microbiome. These bacteria are adapted to live in the intestines and are usually harmless when contained there. Additionally, the gastrointestinal tract has physical barriers, like the intestinal wall, that prevent these bacteria from entering the bloodstream and causing illness. However, if these bacteria escape into other parts of the body, such as through a perforation or during surgery, they can cause infections.
