    Healthcare system Incoming trump admin with RFK signals new start for FDA

    And when ARPA-H doesn't respond, you go to their boss, no? Tell him that his agencies are dropping the ball regarding his agenda? That's what I did.

    Healthcare system Incoming trump admin with RFK signals new start for FDA

    As I've already stated, this is wrong, and numerous Senators have concurred that it's largely up to RFK. Part of your argument above was that RFK doesn't care about it. That's irrelevant to whether it's his responsibility. He is the head of numerous agencies that should be solving the problem...

    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.

    There are protestors, but they seem focused on their specific issue (RFK's "anti-vax" tendencies, anti-vax). A person would have to walk down the huge line, talking to every person, while having someone keep their spot in line. I have not been able to do that. Feel free to attend the next...

    Video RFK Jr. hosts roundtable on long COVID (Sep 18, 2025)

    So are you reaching out to those groups about the current situation? In your previous comment. It's already in the link I shared. So you're telling me to switch to doing what I'm already doing. This is a deceptive statement. There is plenty of support for FMT as an actual intervention. This...

    I am not sure where his support base is. When I went to his Congressional hearings, the hundreds of people there supporting him were almost all from a superpac to elect him, and they weren't interested in why I was there. I agree that it would be useful to try to find and talk to his...

    Video RFK Jr. hosts roundtable on long COVID (Sep 18, 2025)

    No clue. My experience with patient groups over the past 10 years is that 99.9% of people in them do not care. They are there to complain, not to strive for solutions. One person on this forum posted in a bunch of reddit groups and the posts got thousands of votes, comments, and views and no...

    You already forgot that I'm 6'8"? I did in the past, and it was not useful. I was too tired this time. In the past, no one cared. They were there for their own purpose and didn't care why anyone else was there, even if on the surface it seemed like we were there for similar reasons. Hundreds...

    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.

    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.

    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...
