Sawyer White did a fantastic job of reviewing the article “Gut Bacteria linked to MS.” His review was very well presented and informative, allowing me to understand the contents of the article very thoroughly. Sawyer was able to describe the effects of MS so that I could understand why this discovery was important to the medical world. Mr. White also described the process by which the discovery was made in a clear way so I knew what the scientists did and what they data was that they found. I also thought that Sawyer’s point that the article should have said why they were researching the intestines in the first place was a great criticism, which also made me wonder why the article did not have that information.
There were some ways Mr. White could have improved his review though. Although he described what the scientists did in a clear, easy to understand way, it was not very extensive. There could have been a simple explanation of what the scientists did, and then a more complex explanation of their work. Sawyer also never mentions what role the bacteria might have in causing MS, so it is hard to understand the link between the two.
In the end, this review was informative and gave me information on a possible medical breakthrough that would help many people and give them better lives. The idea that bacteria in someone’s intestines could lead to a terrible disease in the brain is something that baffles me.
