They're using low-quality donors. That's why you're left with IBS.

Safe & effective donors will likely never be available because too few people are informed & motivated. See: forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/the-...

Yes, many FMT studies show no benefit, or even harm to patients. There are major donor-quality issues with most FMT studies: forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/the-...
That doesn't make the premise false. There's a huge body of evidence (linked previously) in support.

This is a lie that ignores all the evidence I shared in the previous comment.

Your comment implied that RFK is recommending fecal microbiota transplants. I asked where you saw that.

My thoughts weren't that it would occupy a niche, but rather consume the mucosa, which could then be rebuilt with healthier microbes. "Completely degrades mucin glycans" was what interested me. Here's a forum thread on it: forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/muco...

Do you think this could be used to clear the gut mucosa prior to FMT to enhance the effect of FMT? My initial thought is that it wouldn't work fast enough, but perhaps the patient could take this probiotic mix daily for some weeks prior to FMT. Maybe along with a special diet.

It does not need to be messy or disgusting. And the logistics could be greatly simplified and improved if the FDA/NIH/HHS would allow/help a project like humanmicrobes.org to exist.
