I read about a procedure recently where people with severe stomach issues received beneficial bacteria transplants from family members via their faeces. It's true - honest! Bacteria such as C. difficile are very common and can disrupt vital intestinal flora. The faecal input from family members can return the gut microbiota to healthy levels which mean that the intestinal cells are better equipped to fight infections. The research papers I read showed very promising results. Food for thought!
