The case was isolated and documented by scientists at the University of Nottingham, along with a team from the University of Washington, Oregon and the University of Minnesota.

"This is the first to demonstrate that an enlarged entrebrate, which is a common genetic disorder, actually produces gut abnormalities that cause it," said lead author Stephen H. Dorman, of the University of Nottingham's Department of Plant Sciences.

The case of the man started out as a case that didn't look like a normal case, but was instead a case that could be explained by changes in his gut microbiota that could cause enlarged entrebrate to devour certain kinds of food. The most surprising thing about the man’s case was that the man had no signs of having enlarged entrebrate, even though he was eating a large piece of a banana—a banana that, in reality, contains many other large pieces of banana that are not enlarged. This suggests that the man could have gotten food poisoning when eating a banana that was enlarged.

"The normal gut bacterium for an enlarged entrebrate is a very small set of genes called Firmicutes, which are the members of the family of major gut bacteria known as Enterobacteriaceae, that are present in the human gut," said Dr. Dorman, who is affiliated with the American College of Gastroenterology and a professor of pathology at the University of Washington.

An enlarged entrebrate causes stomach acid and other digestive problems that can result in diarrhea and abdominal discomfort, which are also common in humans.

"It is important to note, but that is not to say that this does not occur in humans, but it can occur in other organisms," Dr. Dorman said. It wasn't until the man had vomited several times that he realized how much he was eating, and the man was able to clean the man's colon with a water-based cleaning product, which didn't have any effect on the man's digestive system.
