Colon Soft Toy - Giant Microbes

A cute, cuddly buddy and an educational aid all in one, this quirky plush makes the perfect gift for yourself, anyone with an interest in medicine, or just a healthy sense of humour!

The colon is the main section of digestion in your body, looping up, across and down like a horseshoe. The colon absorbs water for reuse by the body and ferments fibre with the help of trillions of friendly microbes. These microbiome bacteria are an integral part of your digestive system, even acting as the gatekeepers of your metabolism.

Size: 14cm x 13cm x 3cm approx.

Giantmicrobes are based on actual microbes, cells, organisms and other critters, only 1,000,000 times actual size!

Plush from all new materials. Stuffed with polyester fibre fill. Surface washable: sponge with water & soap, air dry.
