  • Jessica was desperate. She had contracted C. Diff, an aggressive and debilitating infection, two months before her wedding. In the hospital, after a course of completely ineffective antibiotics, her doctor suggested something shocking: a fecal transplant. He hoped that by introducing healthy bacteria from a stranger’s digestive system, her own “gut biome” could be stabilized. Willing to try anything, she went for it. The results of the procedure, as off-putting as it may sound, saved her life. And it could do the same for thousands more.

    I believe this procedure works because of a few believable testimonies, of which this is not one. She was dying, it says. And then it says she was back at the office the next day after the treatment. If you're dying, they are not waiting for you to be at the office 'the next day.'

    While this is a really cool and interesting video, I dont see the need to re-package it and repeat it. What gives?

      I must've overlooked it before then, it seemed great to me! So much so in fact, that I researched further and found that anxiety and bi-polar patients have been successfully treated through this procedure giving hope to modern women everywhere! (Sorry for the sexism, I couldn't resist. The point remains though!!)
