The goal of this probiotic #buttsicle experiment it to accomplish the same outcome as a fecal matter transplant (FMT) without having to eat sh*t or do a poop enema.
That outcome would be: implanting keystone bacteria at large enough numbers that they effectively *become* the microbiome of the lower intestine.
My labs who ZERO natural butyrate production, which means the microbiome in my lower intestine has collapsed. That lines up with my symptoms and hypothesis that recieving strong antibiotics as a child (for surgery) decimated my gut.
By implanting keystone bacteria in massive numbers, and feeding that bacteria #sunfiber, I hope to reboot butyrate production and restore normal functionality to the colon.
Fecal matter transplants and probiotic suppositories are likely the future of GI functional medicine for anyone who has struggled with issues for decades with no real progress, which ends up being most people with real GI issues.
I am running this experiment for myself, but also because I know how common gut issues are and how little real help there is out there.
