| Looks like a candidate for a fecal transplant: http://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/clinical-upd... Most facilities do it the fancy way (use a tube down the nose or up the rear), run tests and, as usual, charge you and your donor out the a! But I've read of DIY'ers who simply spun out the solids, held their nose and swilled the goods(I suppose a real man would use a spoon) or took them in an enema: http://blogs.plos.org/publichealth/2013/05/29/why-diy-fecal-... http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-27503660 Either way it works. "Compatible" donor? Healthy family member(s). As the author of the article notes, probiotics can't possibly match the variety of organisms that a typical human has in their gut. Business proposal: a repository where people deposit feces prior to taking strong antibiotics, so that, should they find themselves consequently absent intestinal flora and fauna, those could easily be restored. Kind of a new twist on the old curse "Eat shit and die!" |
