FMT is shifting from clinical procedures to oral capsules
“So from colonoscopies emerged enemas and, you know, there's some advantages to enemas. Of course, it's easy to administer or fairly easy in comparison to a colonoscopy. But the issue only with an enema is you're only getting the distal part of the colon. And we know the microbiome, I mean, it stems from your mouth all the way to your anus. There's just different categories and different growths in different parts, but there's a microbiome throughout.”

Concentrated processing removes waste while preserving beneficial microbes
“This is very exciting. You set this up really well, and, I'm glad we're able to clear up some of the myth around FMT because although the name does include fecal, the way that it's processed, and I'm happy to get into the weeds on you with this one, really means that we're getting rid of a lot of the waste product that's typically in the FMT or in a stool, and we're concentrating for the microbes within the microbiome.”

Oral capsules treat the entire digestive tract microbiome
“I've had my eye on the field of FMT for a while because, it went from being something that might be indicated for someone with some pretty severe, you know, colonic inflammatory type of issues to being something that seems to now be accessible, to people who might just have irritable bowel issues or some microbiome problems.”

New delivery methods make FMT accessible for home use
“I mean, looks looks like a probiotic. You know? It's a powder. Doesn't have any smell. Doesn't have any taste. The protocol and the ease of access in that regard has improved dramatically as well, shelf stable, you know, easy to store in fridge temperature. And, so so really the barriers to access have evolved and changed significantly over time.”
