FMT is helpful because the poop from a healthy person contains bacteria that is needed by the person who is sick. FMT has been successfully used for: drug-resistant bacterial infections such as Clostridium Difficile, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s Disease, chronic constipation, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), obesity, type II diabetes, Autism, Parkinson’s, mental disease, food poisoning, Malaria, Metabolic Syndrome, autoimmune diseases, and allergies. But this is a huge threat to the pharmaceutical industry, so the FDA has declared poop a drug and is making efforts to restrict it and ban donor banks.
