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.

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...

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...

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...

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...

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.

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.

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...

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...

Not all species can survive every environment.

Considering all that you've listed, it seems to me that you are already aware of what's wrong with your gut and don't need us to tell you what's wrong with it. Nevertheless, diets generally only work if your microbiome composition allow it to work. However, elimination diets can act as--what I...

Seems like this strain was recently introduced into the market. A forum search pulls up an article regarding sorbitol intolerance, but the article does not provide the strain. Though, in the article the species itself was said to assist in helping to restore Clostridia abundance, and similar...

The issue of genetics is a bit too complex in and of itself. What makes things all the more interesting is how the microbiome is certainly able to have an impact on genetics itself, that is, disabling or activating genes. An immediate example of this is lactose tolerant people becoming...

You don't mention a specific product, so anything we could say on the matter is speculation. But even if one were to assume some level of efficacy, I wouldn't assume that two weeks will be enough to make a real difference. Considering how quickly the microbiome is known to return to baseline, I...

Everyone knows a reduction of diversity and viability equates to a reduction of efficacy. Even the type of buffer they use has been shown to do the same. Granted, stool banks and providers more than likely use anaerobic chambers, which significantly reduce exposure to oxygen, which helps with...
