Fecal transplants
-
Listening to the TedX-Brussels livestream I just found out about this. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-204_162-57541445/studies-show-fecal-transplants-effectiveness-treating-c-diff-infections/[^] Internal medicine doctors from Sinai Hospital-Johns Hopkins Program turned to a fecal microbiota transplantation, a procedure in which a stool is taken from a healthy person and transplanted into the colon of the infected person. This is NOT how I imagined modern medicine would be like in the 21st century when I grew up. :wtf:

You posted this just in time for lunch... :~
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin

If it makes you feel any less gross, identifying which gut microbes actually need replaced to repair the microbiome and culturing them in the lab is a subject of active research.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

(I have not read the article) They probably "clean" the microbiota so that just the "good" things from it will help another.
