What does your appendix do?

Answers
The function of the appendix is unknown. One theory is that the appendix acts as a storehouse for good bacteria, to reboot the digestive system after diarrheal illnesses. Other experts believe it’s a useless remnant from our evolutionary past. Surgical removal causes no observable health problems.

Some believe that it is a storehouse for good bacteria, “rebooting” the digestive system after diarrheal illnesses. Others believe that it is a useless remnant from our evolutionary past.
