Bacteria in the digestive system are mainly harmless commensal organisms that aid in digestion, produce vitamins, and support the immune system. Special barriers and the body's immune response prevent harmful bacteria from causing sickness. Thus, the unique environment of the gut allows beneficial bacteria to thrive without harm.
