    Prevention methods for bacterial infections (and avoiding unnecessary antibiotic use)

    People already do these things and still manage to get infections, whether bacterial or not. So, clearly, that's not how to avoid infection. Even seasonal things are the result of dormant microbes that are already inside you, which get triggered by what you expose yourself to. Immunity is often...

    Outcomes DNA stool analysis before and after FMT?

    While the only way to know how it will look like is if you perform the tests yourself, it is often observed that the microbiome will tend towards that of the donor. So, if you insist on entertaining speculation, then test the donors' stools. Not sure about Oxalobacter, but Akkermansia is overly...

    Donors How can I go about finding a top tier donor in New York City ?

    Doesn't New York have a lot of restrictions on testing stools? Do you perform tests out of state? From the looks of it, the website you have is designed in such a way that implies FMT to be a valid treatment for various diseases, of which the FDA heavily declares otherwise. Cool that you're...

    Blog Fuck Portion Control by Nathan Guy Hatch

    Where's the part about dropping portion control and how it is relevant to the gut microbiome? I'm not sure what the emphasis on B12 is all about. I don't disagree that the gut microbiome is involved in cancer, but B12 alone won't make a difference. The commonly termed "fight or flight mode"...

    Sources Does anyone have any experience with Microbiota Therapeutics at UMN (University of Minnesota)?

    I remember emailing the people involved long ago. Never heard back from them. I wouldn't trust them.

    Other Popularity and acceptance of FMT. Who is to blame for why FMT will never be available? Ignorance, laziness, and apathy of the general public? How to motivate people to take action?

    Nothing but arguments from incredulity. What was accomplished first: FMTs reaching the home or patients or convincing the government? Did the former happen for free? Stop being silly.

    Other Popularity and acceptance of FMT. Who is to blame for why FMT will never be available? Ignorance, laziness, and apathy of the general public? How to motivate people to take action?

    Yet, even you would realize that "hard to find" is not equivalent to "impossible." When aiming to produce a product for general consumption, you're either fulfilling an existing demand or you're creating demand. "What do people want?" They want everything. When people want everything, that...

    Other Popularity and acceptance of FMT. Who is to blame for why FMT will never be available? Ignorance, laziness, and apathy of the general public? How to motivate people to take action?

    An idea rejected today can be accepted after 3 to 4 generations have passed. That is normally how long it takes for society as a whole to experience some kind of reset. Of course, we won't be able to see it, since we'll be dead by then, but the usefulness of ignorance, incompetence and laziness...

    Other Duplicating FMT, stool donor, and microbiome projects vs solving existing barriers

    I'm guessing I'm the only programmer here for others to be unable to see how this would work. Obviously, coding is not necessary to do what he did. But I never made that claim. Coding simply lets me work smarter, not harder. I am not so ignorant of how the internet works that I should be unable...

    Other Duplicating FMT, stool donor, and microbiome projects vs solving existing barriers

    If you can do it, anyone else can, too. You did it with little to no knowledge in programming and limited income. Most of my code will be open source and is already accessible on Github, so anyone will be able to duplicate what I do, or submit feature requests, bug reports and even contribute to...

    Other Duplicating FMT, stool donor, and microbiome projects vs solving existing barriers

    FDA restriction means you stopped. If Congress won't do anything until a large number of people speak up, then we're just waiting for Congress. Duplicating what you did is the only thing that will help RIGHT NOW.

    Other Duplicating FMT, stool donor, and microbiome projects vs solving existing barriers

    The problem is you stopped doing that. I will not wait for congress to get their act together for me to be healed. Once I'm healed, then will I be fit for travel and fighting the government on the issue. Access to stools comes first. I'm not willing to suffer at the hands of the healthy.

    Other Duplicating FMT, stool donor, and microbiome projects vs solving existing barriers

    Building a website to not only inform people of all kinds of things, but also make a marketplace of stool donors. The website is still work in progress and is heavily being developed. Progress is slow because it's just me, and my health doesn't let me code every day. It's the one in my...

    Is a lot of probiotics the same as FMT? Anyone try VSL 3? I’m trying a high dose (around 230 billion CFU daily)

    I've taken at least a trillion CFU a day, with no lasting effect. Though, the first time I took probiotics, my digestive system started acting normal. My poop became a perfect type 3 and I was going every day, with incredible urgency without the need for laxatives. (Note, my stools have mostly...
