It’s amazing how much research is occurring on good intestinal bacteria. Unfortunately, it isn’t profitable enough for drug companies to pursue.
If its not a pill or treatment they can sell for sky-high prices and have medicare/medicaid pay for it, they definitely are not interested. In fact, they will work to denigrate and suppress it.
Thats a shitty thing to say
I’ve read the Russians have a bank of such intestinal bacteria for fecal transplants. The rationale as I remember reading is that this is just in case there a drug resistant bacteria that can’t be stopped by any known antibiotic. Fecal transplants work in a different way than antibiotics and thus would be able to accomplish the same thing. I am not aware if the USA or other western countries have something similar.
“Yet”
This isn’t rocket science (the OP). Dysbiosis is, IMHO, a comorbidity.
Big pharma, not coincidentally, is hard at work developing a cure-all they can patent while, ironically, AMA doctors twiddle their thumbs in blatant disregard for gut health and its role in the immune system.
I’ve had c-diff twice both after hospital stays for diverticulitis. Was given Vancomycin. Luckily it worked. Fecal transplant was next if it didn’t.
