    Oral microbiome - Streptococcus overgrowth (test results)

    This is not evidence-based. As previously pointed out, current knowledge does not allow one to make these kinds of inferences. Doing so is spreading misinformation.

    Article RFK Jr's MAHA project funnels millions from public health to private wellness industry (Jun 2025) MAHA’s Goal Is Not Health. Robert Kennedy’s movement promises more privatization

    If you're implying that FMT is not the magic fix because the one donor you used didn't work well, that's not rational or evidence-based.

    NYT just published a video on it too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTpf1QdgnDE https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/09/opinion/maha-health-wellness-influencers.html NYT's "solution" at 4:10 is bullshit too though.

    Other What is the public perception of FMT? How much does it matter? Has it been blocking progress?

    1. I already did to the appropriate degree. 2. Any more so would be an absurd demand to make in the context of what I described in my last comment. Essentially demanding me to "feed the troll".

    Other What is the public perception of FMT? How much does it matter? Has it been blocking progress?

    You are wrong on all accounts. You made a bunch of erroneous assumptions in order to reach a negative conclusion. Then, when you are told that your assumptions were wrong, you persist. That is the behavior of a troll.

    Other What is the public perception of FMT? How much does it matter? Has it been blocking progress?

    The first half of your comment is erroneous because he wasn't some random stranger. Yes, it's very frustrating that people have come to accept disease as normal. My lack of expression is due to my poor health. I've been bed-bound & homebound for the past decade. What I've been doing in DC for...

    The power of olive oil -- significant changes to gut microbiome, stool, and food tolerances

    Everything modifies the microbiome. I don't think it would be useful to do that. I think the closest thing is the American Gut study.

    Enhancing fmt reduced to less than 1% as effective as it used to be after i started taking high amounts of inulin daily years ago (reason likely being severely damaging my gut mucus layer)

    1. You changed donors, so your assessment is not valid. 2. You're not "killing off bacteria" with inulin. By inducing diarrhea, you're temporarily clearing out problematic microbes. But constantly having diarrhea is not sustainable, and thus also comes with detriments. What changed from your...

    Blog The FDA and FMT regulation, part 2. (Jul 2024, HumanMicrobes.org) I met with the FDA. Here's what I shared with them, and their response.

    I've been posting videos to Twitter and other social media for the past few weeks and no one is interacting with the tweets, and the videos are getting very few views. The accounts are linked at the top right of the page: https://www.humanmicrobes.org/

    FMT Assessing healthcare workers as potential stool donors for faecal microbiota transplantation: a cross-sectional study of antimicrobial-resistant gut bacteria and enteropathogenic microorganisms (Sep 2025, n=106) "supports the inclusion of HCWs as potential stool donors for FMT"

    https://www.journalofhospitalinfection.com/article/S0195-6701(25)00277-4/abstract Previous guidelines have recommended against using healthcare workers as donors. This study indicates otherwise.
