Maria Rodale: The Magical Power of People Poop

Quote:
This sounds funny, but I'm not joking. Fecal transplants, where doctors take poop from a relative, mix it up with water, and insert it into a patient's intestines, has almost miraculous healing properties. This comes straight from my morning library news: According to lead study author Mayur Ramesh, MD, from the Henry Ford Health System. Of the 49 patients, 43 fully recovered, 4 died of causes unrelated to C. diff, 1 had intestinal surgery, and 1 showed no improvement.”
