FMT - fecal matter transplant! Yep, you heard right!
I worked with a man who had only 6" of colon. The rest had been removed because of Krohn's disease. He only had the 6" because 4 days before the operation to remove that last 6" he started drinking aloe vera juice. In 4 days and for ten years thereafter he never had further attack. His specialist when asked why didn't you tell me about aloe vera replied "because it has not been medically proven and I do not mind getting thousands of dollars for each bit that I amputated".
wow-someone with chronic chrones disease might find relief. Have 2 friends that might benefit by this procedure. Don't think they can overcome the stigma.
Crohns and Colitis - etc... it makes sense that you can repopulate the gastric track with better stuff. I actually watched a program where they showed how this is done. Preparing the poop.
I heard about this a few years ago, there are some conditions it is very helpful for. Kinda gross, but lots of medical stuff is.
