Curing Gut Problems with Synthetic Pseudo-Poo

Read an interesting article about artificial poop transplants. The basic idea is very similar to traditional fecal transplants. To restore the normal balance of gut bacteria, you introduce fecal matter from a healthy patient into the intestines of an unhealthy patient.

Looks like researchers have introduced an artificial version of the fecal matter that is grown in the lab. It's less gross and safer for the patient.

Here's the full article: http://m.popsci.com/science/article/2013-01/scientists-develop-synthetic-pseudo-poo-fecal-transplants

  2. I was very ill with Crohn's for years and finally tried Sky Curtis's protocol for doing fecal transplants at home. After years of suffering, her treatment saved me! I have no more symptoms! I bought her guidebook from http://www.fecaltransfusions.com. No one needs to suffer any longer with this terrible disease. There's hope!
