Are you willing to travel to another country if I pay for all your expenses including travel , food , stay here and etc. literally everything. I have a donor who I think can fix you and me. Willing to give fresh stool 3-4 times a week for 4 months. I will pay for literally everything.

I saw your YouTube video about you living in a car. It felt painful and made me almost cry. You don’t deserve this.

I’d be willing to carry your expenses for living but I can’t afford in USA since I don’t earn in dollars . If you can come to my country, I would handle every expense. You can and sleep in a proper room and a bed , eat whatever you want. Do the FMT your way. Your WiFi and electricity bill , everything is my responsibility. I

In the meantime , if you need any funds. I can send you on that. I think pay pal works for international online transactions. However, I cannot send you huge amount at once , maybe week by week . But it would be the best option if you come to my place , that way I’d be willing to pay spend way more money for you. Yes, I know it sounds a bit selfish but I am in the same state as you. I am doing my best can.

Hello. I'm looking forward to finding out if age is a factor. I work-out and run daily. I'm just curious.

Important: Hi, Michael. I have been following you since last 3 years. I have severe gut dysbiosis which has caused severe physical and mental health issues. Issues as severe as yours if not more. I am going to perform FMT soon.

I have doubts about my donor and wanted to clear them. Please , if you can give me 10-15 minutes and clear my doubts , it would be really great and I can proceed with the FMT

I have a similar journey as yours , I have had very severe health issues since childhood. Somehow manage to graduate high school but couldn’t proceed with college and in life due to my health issues. Also , I am willing to financially help you in my own limits if the FMT works with the donor I have selected.

I am at a stage where no diet helps me except fasting.I have found a donor who I think matches your ideal characteristics but I am unsure of some things about the donor. I can explain everything directly to you .

I think we can write in here

Hi Michael, what was the brand of the spore biotic you had a huge issue with that gave you arthritis?

Hello Michael can you please contact me in a private message?

I am 71 year old widow,very interested in being involved in one of your studies. I have1-2 bowel movements per day. PLEASE let me know any further information.

Thanks for the detailed review!! Can you provide the name of the FB group? I am trying to find some reviews for a place that will ship to the US.

Just last night I posted a very recent (in fact, not yet formally published in a journal) paper in the "Microbiome studies, news, media" section that you might really like to read. You ask a lot of questions about the microbiome and how it functions biochemically, that's what this paper is all about.

I am a United States Army Aviation Ranger Veteran. A wife, mother and grandmother plus designer.

I recently took the online challenge for gut health to get rid of parasites from the body with the WILDCRAFTED JAMIACAN DUCK FLOWER.. WHEN I SAY NOT A DARN THING HAPPENED. Which this let me know that the natural home remedies of fruits and vegetables and spice and herbs are working to keep me healthy.

Most people that use the Wildcrafted Jamiacan Duck Flower end up having worms in their fecal matter. I had not a darn thing happened and I was on a BigO live trying to show people what was going on so they know what to expect. Mine was a complete flop. However, I am glad it did that just means I need to lose weight.

I’m New here, and curious to what is community has to offer. Or more over’ what I have to offer this community.
Full on warning

Hi I’m new here, I need some guidance on how this works. Can someone please help me out?

I’m new here and I’m very excited to find this exceptional resource for everything microbiome! Thank you!
I’m interested in your thoughts about using young, healthy, well-matched donors for microbiota transfer treatments from the rest of the body (besides stool) including: oral (separate multi-kingdom communities including biofilms from the oral cavity), vaginal, nasal, skin, and so forth. I know that vaginal microbiota transplants have been used successfully for bacterial vaginosis, but I can foresee a future where everything from tears and menstrual blood to volatile organic compounds from the lungs and more being used to save lives! Everything previously thought as simply waste products being used instead to reboot an older and/or weaker body. Can you imagine how wonderful it would be to see healthy young people compensated for everything they would’ve ordinarily thrown away? Ideally one would find a few excellent “mini-me’s” that would be available for donations.
My other question is, looking for the best donor, why wouldn’t it be a good idea to find the best fit possible, for example, matching blood types, sex, and possibly key genetics such as the major histocompatibility genes? (In addition to the very best screening techniques for any pathogens.)
Also, although there may not be clinical trial results available yet for the perfect protocols, if one has major inflammation caused by a variety of pathogens, why wouldn’t we try eliminating the pathogens effectively first; such as using antibiotics, anti-fungals, anti-parasitics, antivirals and/or bacteriophages as needed, to eradicate the pathogens before the transplants?
I would love to hear what your thoughts are about these questions.

Hi i have couple of question if u dont mind answering i would really appreciate it



How does bile affect stool form? I ask because i have tyoe 1 and 2 no matter what, the only thing that helps are a lot of mg or other laxatives but im aware thats just a bandaid



Are there any known mechanism by which large intestine fmt can influence small intestinal microbiome?



I read posts about mucosal microbiome being a problem, how to aproach this issue in ur opinion?



How are obligate anaerobes preserved in fmt?

What makes someone high quality donor? I keep seeing talk about super donor but how would it be even proven if stool tests are not that good?
Someone being an athlete is not best indication imo.

i have a lot of knowledge on the gut brain what do you know or study?

How does pricing work for untested donors (which I see some people have tried)? Do they charge less than fully activated donors, given the greater risk involved? Is it possible that if people agree to pay to have a donor tested, that then the cost of orders is reduced for them given their commitment to support the activation of the donor?

Did you see my reply to your experience report on the forums? I'm particularly interested in your experiences with the currently active donors FL-RS-1997 and UT-AW-1998, in other words whether one of those two was significantly superior/inferior to the other.

I saw your post about which criteria make a difference when choosing a donor. I wrote my own thoughts on that here--though like yours, they are based on theorizing/hypotheses and not on actual experience.

https://forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/the-evidence-and-rationale-supporting-our-stool-donor-criteria-2022-hu.131/post-834


Actual experience regarding these factors may be hard to come by, as most FMT providers don't provide ANY demographic information about donors at all--it's impossible to even tell if you got the same or a different donor as someone else who reported an experience with that same provider. That's the great thing about HMorg that sets them apart from other providers, donor characteristics and interview responses are available to recipients.

However, aside from Michael Harrop himself who has tried many donors, there aren't that many people who have tried enough to clearly be able to test hypotheses (and even if they have, such is difficult to tell from the results spreadsheet due to inconsistent recipient identifiers--an issue that I posted about on the forum before). That gets me to the other thing I wanted to point out, which really was the main purpose of this message--despite how it looks from the "orders" page of HMorg, there are ONLY two donors (one male, FL-RS-1997, and one female, UT-AW-1998) who are currently willing to provide stool AND are tested for pathogens. All the other "current" donors in the spreadsheet have not been tested, which explains why there are so many fewer experience reports for them--only brave souls who accept untested donors have tried those.

To be fair to HMorg, you will be freely informed of this fact if and when you decide to place an order--however it would be helpful to know this ahead of time, as it will likely give you a much better idea of the options you have to choose from. It certainly did for me. I have been told that two other potential donors, one of each sex, are in the process of being "activated" (the term HMorg uses to refer to the blood and stool pathogen testing), though I have no idea how long this will take. To see these you would need to request the longer donor list, which I won't link to as Michael Harrop doesn't want it shared publicly, which I respect. If you ask he will send it. I WILL say though that NEITHER of these is among the people in the spreadsheet who actually have experiences posted about them. It seems none of those will ever be tested unless some of us customers agree to come together and pay to have it done.

Two quite specific questions about HMorg specifically (feel free to move to forum if there's a better place for it):
1) How does the shipping cost compare to the cost of capsules/stool? In other words, how many capsules worth of money can be saved for each extra shipment that is eliminated by combining it with another (provided all shipments are from the same donor, such that combining is even possible)?

2) Any information on diet of donors? I have a dairy allergy and if I recall correctly, OpenBiome donors eat a hypo-allergenic diet prior to donation. My allergy isn't life threatening or anything so it's not so much a safety issue, but still, exposure to dairy and foods I'm sensitive to causes flares--so first if there are two roughly equivalent donors but one eats large amounts of foods I'm sensitive to, it might be wise to avoid that donor, and secondly, even if exposure is unavoidable it's good to know so that I can better separate food reactions (which are likely to be short term) from microbiome effects (which are likely to be more persistent).

ok define what a wellness wizard is i,m curious

Hi Michael Harrop !! I m Lindi De Medeiros l m New Member here and l m really Happy To be a part of the Team in the future !!
I Hope everything is going well to l start with Human Microbiome this Amazing opportunity to Help the science and peoples!!

Hello there dear fellows at Human Microbes Forum , i'm a new member here my name is Jhen Rivera i'm looking forward sharing as well as to exchange ideas to get our stool community supported and have Mr Michael Harrop headed to lead this way , in that order of ideas , i'm bringing in on my co-working fellows partners municipal structure command coordenates members that cognitivelywise are with me .

Michael, hi! I have some viable information and experience with donors and administering FMT’s. My husband and I traveled to Australia to meet with Prof. Borody, he taught me everything I needed to know and together we cured my husband of his ulcerative colitis. The donor does not have to be super, perhaps more FMT’s are required to achieve the end result. It works, like manure works to fertilize!

I have a post on here about a clinic in the US that does FMT for patients without recurrent cdiff infections. I've only had cdiff once, so am not a candidate at other places I've looked into.

What phage supplement do you take? I'm looking at adding them to my regiment after reading several articles linked on this site.

Thank you for your excellent contributions to this forum.
