Fecal bacteriotherapy

[math]

Just wanted to mention this sort of cure called Fecal bacteriotherapy

I read this method cures bacterial infections pretty good.

Here's a copy-paste:

"Look, medical science isn't always a pretty thing. Cures aren't always born from the epiphany of some genius scientist in a laboratory. Sometimes they come from Nazis and shit.

For instance, we have the story of dysentery. During World War II, Nazi high command became aware of a very serious problem with their officers stationed in North Africa. They were all dying.

The culprit was acute dysentery, which apparently was so bad that the German medical corps concluded it was killing more soldiers than Allied attacks. In a state of emergency, Germany sent over their best chemists and doctors to find a cure (history does not indicate whether they were aware of the pun-rife irony of a bunch of assholes shitting themselves to death). Despite the Third Reich's greatest minds all working in unison, they were initially unable to make any progress.

In desperation, they looked to the Bedouins, who seemed immune to the disease. What they discovered was that whenever a Bedouin caught dysentery, he or she would immediately eat a fistful of steaming camel droppings.

This somehow cured the disease, presumably because, while dysentery may be a malignant stomach-shredding condition, even it has standards. The Nazi scientists went to work on the camel poop and discovered the presence of Bacillus subtilis, a bacterium that seemed to be the only thing that could directly counter dysentery, sort of the Luke to its Anakin or the Batman to its Joker.

B. subtilis is still used today to combat virulent bacteria. In fact, it's used much in the same way as before. Doctors in Tampa, Florida, were able to cure a woman from a fatal bacterium by literally straining a healthy person's poop and then feeding it to her. The practice, known as a fecal transplant, is becoming more and more common to kill bacteria that have evolved to be immune to antibiotics, though we imagine the bedside discussion must be something to see."

Glad you posted about this.
Some call it 'human probiotic infusion' as well if anyone wants to google it. I was reading about it a few weeks ago and some patients (not all, of course) have found it beneficial.
A British doctor, Colin Dolphin, wanted to do research into its possibilities for helping odour/TMAU sufferers but, unfortunately, his research grant was turned down.
Are there any millionaires out there suffering from malodour conditions?

I wrote about fecal transplant a while ago and i think this method could help alot of us.

[H0peful]

So other than eating sh*t, is there a pill containing the same bacteria that we can take?

hey gang , this stuff is in Clinical trials in Canada now and recruiting .

http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT0 ... cal&rank=2
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT0 ... cal&rank=1
also fecal enema
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT0 ... cal&rank=4
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?t ... riotherapy

hopeful , i'm pretty sure if you google hard enough you'll find some mad scientist trying to put poop in pill form for us. Check "google scholar"

and keep on eye on this clinicalTrials.gov . its a government site if that help
