FMT as supportive treatment for Anorexia Nervosa. Conditions 

FMT for a specific condition
Indeed it makes sense. I'll add an "anorexia" section to the Obesity page https://humanmicrobiome.info/obesity/

Here's the info I have:

The gut microbiome derived from anorexia nervosa patients impairs weight gain and behavioral performance in female mice (Aug 2019) https://academic.oup.com/endo/advance-article-abstract/doi/10.1210/en.2019-00408/5554100 "decreased appetite as well as the capacity to convert ingested food to unit of body substance may contribute to poor weight gain"


Conflicting data:

Gut microbial communities from patients with anorexia nervosa do not influence body weight in recipient germ-free mice (Mar 2021) https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/19490976.2021.1897216
