Has anyone tried children as stool donors for FMT? Donors

[Ben]

Hi, I saw some studies that suggest that children after the age of 3 have developed a microbiome in their gut to be compatible with the adult microbiome, so I was wondering if anyone has used children as donors?

Kind regards

Yes, many people have used children for FMT with success. There is a bit of info in this thread on that too: https://forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/does-stool-donor-sex-and-age-matter-are-there-differences-in-receiving.416/
