Foreign stools provide healthy intestinal flora


New research suggests that a healthy gut flora can keep diabetes at bay. After implantation of feces from lean, healthy subjects, nine obese men cured of type 2 diabetes.

 
With an unusual experiment showed scientist experiments showed researcher Max Nieuwdorp at the Academic Medical Centre in Amsterdam, Holland, in 2012 the species composition of our intestinal flora can affect whether we develop type 2 diabetes or not.

He made a 'faecesimplantation in nine obese men who showed signs of diabetes. Subjects received feces from foreign, slim and healthy persons registered in the gut. This was already after six weeks the composition of the intestinal flora of patients changing. Concurrent they experienced a marked improvement in their symptoms of type 2 diabetes.

As we have become more cleanly and fights infections with antibiotics, we affect the intestinal flora, creating an imbalance in metabolism. Therefore, it is certainly not just our own bad lifestyle but also the lifestyle of intestinal bacteria deeds that we are developing type diabetes.


Feces transmitted by endoscopes


 

The endoscope with 20-30 ml of feces from a donor is taken to the patient's rectum.
 
The foreign stool "good" bacteria work their way into the intestines, where they outcompete the patient's own "bad" bacteria.
