Westmead Hospital to offer life-saving, stomach-churning, poo transplant cure
Yes, poo transplants are going mainstream.
It's pretty amazing, really, how no one seemed to see the importance of our gut microbiota until recently.
And for all you fans of a what's basically a new field of medicine, I see there is a website up with the great name Gut Microbiota Worldwatch, run by a bunch of European gastroenterologists, it seems. (Which, come to think of it, is probably appropriate, since I think Germans have been a bit ahead of the field in having a keen interest in observing poop for health reasons. Whether they truly have a national interest in all things poop related seems up for debate, however.)
