Faecal transplant, also known as faecal microbiota transplantation or FMT, is the transfer of stool from a healthy donor to a patient with a disease. The idea is to restore the balance of bacteria in the gut, which can be disrupted by factors such as antibiotics, diet, or infection but it could potentially help with a range of problems from irritable bowel syndrome to Alzheimer's.  Why is faecal transplant used? How does faecal transplant work? How is faecal transplant performed? What are the risks of faecal transplant? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

A fundamental basic of ruminant nutrition – energy density of feeds – is covered in this latest Rumen Room Podcast. Expressed as Megajoules of Metabolisable Energy per kilogram of dry matter (MJME/kgDM), energy density is an important driver of animal productivity and profitability. In a down to earth, practical “gumboot level” manner, Dr Charlotte Westwood explores the basics of MJME as a concept and covers how feed testing laboratories measure MJME. How we use MJME values of a feed on farm on a day to day basis is explained. The strengths and possible limitations with the use of MJME in our day to day farm-level decisions is discussed. Don't be put off by what is often thought to be a rather "dry" topic of MJME - actually, it's a straightforward concept - we're sure you'll learn a lot from this latest podcast! Here's where to find the various sections within the MJME podcast, below: 2.02 Outline of this MJME podcast 3.40 What is “energy”? 6.30 Defining Megajoules and Metabolisable Energy 7.50 Megajoules compared to Megacalories – what's the difference? 10.25 What is gross energy and why might we be interested? 14.25 Why ruminants can't use all of gross energy in feeds for useful things 15.10 Faecal energy – what a waste! (#1) 16.10 Digestible energy 17.25 Methane – what a waste! (#2) 18.10 Finally arriving at the MJME number…. How this is calculated 19.00 How different feeds change energy losses as methane 21.00 Measuring MJME – inside the sheep 23.00 Feed testing laboratories estimates of MJME 25.40 Using the digestibility value to calculate MJME 26.20 NIRS technology - digestibility and MJME 31.15 Strengths and weaknesses of MJME as a measure of feed quality – an overview 32.00 Typical MJME values of feed 34.40 Valuing our feeds on a cents per MJME basis – a simple task on farm! Valuing a bale of pasture baleage on an MJME basis as an example 38.00 Using MJME as part of your feed budgeting – MJME demand vs. MJME supply. A 30kg liveweight lamb as an example 40.30 Limitations of MJME as an indicator of suitability of a feed for animals 41.30 MJME is a calculated measure only! 42.00 MJME doesn't tell us about all of the other interesting stuff in feeds 44.10 Summing up the MJME topic

We show, in a large regional dataset, that male patients, patients under 65 years, the most deprived patients and ethnic minority groups are less likely to return a FIT sample. It is important that strategies are developed to ensure patients with these protected characteristics are not disadvantaged with the increasing usage of FIT to prioritise urgency of investigations.

Essentially every culture, modern or ancient, understood that health and faeces are inherently linked. The Ancient Chinese practiced ‘copromancy' which was the assessment of health based upon the shape, size and texture of faeces. Today we have the Bristol Stool Chart that helps us to classify faeces/poo into seven different groups. As disconcerting as it may be, the state of our poo can tell us a lot about our own health and this is only going to increase as our knowledge about our faecal microbiome expands. The faecal microbiome is the composition of all the microorganisms within our faeces. We are learning that the composition not only affects our health but can also be contributory to diseases we experience. In some circumstances, this has also become a treatment with faecal transplantation to manage treatment resistant clostridium-difficile colitis. This is the story of the faecal microbiome. Our special guests: Dr Piers Mitchell, who is a hospital specialist consultant in the NHS and co-editor of the International Journal of Osteoarchaeology.

Learn more about the podcast here - https://insidematters.health/episodes Debbie Shawcross is a clinician scientist and Professor of Hepatology and Chronic Liver Failure at Kings College London. She is a global key opinion leader in hepatic encephalopathy (HE) and has a specific research interest in why patients with advanced chronic liver disease are susceptible to developing an infection. Professor Shawcross also leads the gut microbial manipulation and chronic liver failure laboratory (Shawcross Laboratory) in the James Black Centre, Kings College London.   She is the Chief Investigator of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) EME-funded PROMISE Trial investigating faecal microbiota transplantation as a treatment for patients with alcohol and metabolic-related cirrhosis and Principal Investigator of the EU Horizon 20:20-funded MICROB-PREDICT Trial.   Liver disease is a growing problem globally, with 40% of adults alive today having excess fat accumulating in their livers. This condition, called fatty liver disease, is a starting point for a range of liver diseases including cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) and liver cancer.  There is a known link between the gut, liver and brain. These connections and interrelationships are called the ‘gut-liver-brain axis'. The liver and the blood are connected anatomically through the hepatic portal vein. The gut and the brain are connected anatomically through a nerve called the vagus nerve. More generally, the organs are connected through metabolites and signalling molecules produced by the gut microbiome that can travel in the blood. Multiple studies that have been conducted in humans and animals have shown that the microbiome plays a fundamental role in the development of liver disease and is therefore a promising potential target for prevention/treatment. In the episode, Professor Shawcross provides an excellent overview of what changes to the microbiome occur and why these are important. Briefly, in patients with liver disease, there is lower bacterial microbiome diversity (fewer species) and within the species that are residing, there are relatively higher proportions of bacteria that cause inflammation, as well as bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics (multi-drug resistant organisms ‘MDROs'). Additionally, in liver disease, a barrier that prevents bacteria from seeping out of the intestine into the blood/body becomes damaged and ‘leaky'. This process constellation results in something called ‘leaky gut'. As patients get sicker with the liver disease they progress to cirrhosis, and patients with cirrhosis can suffer from life-threatening complications, such as hepatic encephalopathy (HE). HE is a devastating condition that has parallels to dementia and severely impacts the quality of life in patients suffering from the disease.  The current standard of care (best available treatment) for HE is the combination of a laxative and an antibiotic, both modulating the gut microbiome. The treatments are inadequate through and there is still a high unmet need. Professor Shawcross believes that intestinal microbiota transfer (IMT) could be an effective solution that decolonises MDROs, improves the gut-intestinal barrier and improves the composition of the microbiome. Professor Shawcross completed an IMT study in patients suffering from cirrhosis (the PROFIT study) https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/en/publications/profit-a-prospective-randomised-placebo-controlled-feasibility-trial-of-faecal-microbiota-transplantation-in-cirrhosis(4c186477-ea55-48eb-b7b9-a4b8b11d5099)/export.html. The results were promising, with IMT being safe, well tolerated and having favourable impacts on the microbiome. The success of this trial enabled Professor Shawcross to raise money from the NIHR to undertake a larger study (the PROMISE trial). Professor Shawcross is also involved in several other studies – the details of which can be found here: https://www.fmt-trials.org. Professor Shawcross's vision is to develop new treatments for patients with liver disease that modulate the microbiome. Dr James McIlroy and Professor Shawcross also discussed a number of other topics such as the microbiome in depression, the potential importance of coffee for liver health and much more. 00:39 Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) and the PROFIT trial 11:38 The microbiome in liver disease 13:58 The history of FMT in liver disease 18:35 Microbiome diversity 20:03 The impact of the pandemic on the microbiome 22:14 Types of liver disease 25:32 Treating cirrhosis 26:44 Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B 29:40 Fatty liver and the microbiome 32:27 Animal models and liver disease 33:15 Ammonia and liver disease 35:07 Hepatic Encephalopathy  39:15 The gut barrier 41:52 Hepatic Encephalopathy 46:40 The PROMISE trial 54:24 The liver and mental health 58:37 The threat of antimicrobial resistance 1:02:22 The FERARO trial 1:03:30 Coffee and the liver 1:05:33 Probiotics in liver disease 1:09:15 Veganism 1:10:40 What makes a good FMT donor 1:12:30 Antibiotics before FMT 1:14:16 Diet and FMT

A., Lavelle, A., O'Neill, C., Thuret, S., Cattaneo, A., Nolan, Y. M. Abstract: The gut microbiome is emerging as an important susceptibility factor in Alzheimers disease (AD) possibly due to the increased prevalence of pro-inflammatory genera in gut microbiota of AD participants. Microbiota-mediated changes in cognition and adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN), an important process for memory which is altered in AD, position the microbiota-gut-brain axis as a key regulator of AD. However, it is unknown whether gut microbiota alterations are the cause or consequence of AD symptoms. We transplanted faecal microbiota from AD participants and age-matched controls into microbiota-depleted naive adult rats and found impairments in AHN and associated memory tasks, which correlated with clinical cognitive scores. Discrete changes in the rat caecal and hippocampal metabolome were evident. Serum from AD participants also decreased neurogenesis in vitro and correlated with cognitive scores and pro-inflammatory genera. Our results reveal that the cognitive symptoms in AD may be due to alterations in gut microbiota, and that impaired neurogenesis may be a mechanistic link between altered gut microbiota and cognitive impairment in AD.

He is a principal investigator within the Bacteria, Immunology, Gastroenterology and ‘Omics (BINGO) group at the University which developed the CD-TREAT diet for Crohn's disease.   His clinical interests are inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), paediatric endoscopy and Helicobacter pylori. His main research interest is the gastrointestinal mucosal microbiota and its importance in paediatric disease, particularly IBD. He is especially interested in the molecular characterisation of the microbiota and its subsequent modification for the purposes of therapeutic effect via microbial therapeutics.   In this episode, we discuss treating IBD in children, using entirely liquid diets to reduce inflammation, and developing novel strategies that target the microbiome to treat IBD.   1:06 - Intro 1:56 - Interview Starts 2:27 – How to study the microbiome – analytical methods and study types 3:22 - How has microbiome science changed over the last 5 years? 5:13 -  What is Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN)? 7:39 -  What is Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)? 10:18 - Why are people getting IBD earlier in life? 14:54 - Is there different immunology between Crohn's disease and IBD? 17:07 - How has the perceived importance of the microbiome changed in IBD? 21:48 - How did all of this influence your PhD?  26:14 - Are we missing something with the current microbiome studies? 29:17 – The Bristol Stool Score 29:53 - Do you think that the microbiome drives inflammation in the gut? 34:01 – The Appendix  39:15 – Using the microbiome to predict IBD? 46:16 – Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) 49:03 – FMT in UC – studies published to date. 52:17 – Super donors in FMT 59:17 – The 16S gene 1:03:06 – The microbiome analytical toolkit 1:07:55 -  AI and large populations 1:09:19 – The implantation of machine learning 1:10:39 - Are clinicians trained in how to use AI 1:13:01 - Discussion on the application of FMT in paediatric populations. 1:14:22 - Infants, diet and gut health. 1:18:01 – Further discussion on FMT in paediatric populations. 1:20:44 - FMT donor screening processes.  1:22:21 – Donor selection for paediatric FMT. 1:26:30 – Potential risks associated with FMT.  1:29:19 - Can FMT or other microbial therapeutics replace immune system dampening therapies? 1:31:13 - When IBD is at its worst, what is it like? 1:36:01 - What do we do about the EEN diet and Crohn's disease? 1:38:20 - Which element of EEN is driving the positive effects in Crohn's? 1:42:27 - How do we create a less socially restrictive diet than EEN but keep the benefits? 1:44:44 - What is the ultimate aim of CDTreat?  1:47:19 - What is the relative importance of bacteria versus other components of the microbiome?   Key takeaways from this episode:   There has been an explosion of interest in the microbiome in recent times as it is becoming it easier and easier to analyse the microbiome through analytical methods that do not involve traditional culture techniques - which are labour intensive and relatively slow.    The field of microbial therapeutics is still in its infancy. There are many ongoing clinical trials into new ideas. Richard is hopeful that these trials will result in new treatment options for patients.    Inflammatory bowel disease is a chronic (long term) condition characterised by inflammation in the gut. There are two main forms of IBD, Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis. Crohn's disease can affect any part of the intestinal tract, from mouth to anus. UC only affects the last part of the gut - the colon.    There is a microbiome that lives within the lumen of the gut and on the surface of the intestine (mucosa). Richard's analogy for this relationship is that they are like a beach and an ocean – they are different but inextricably linked.    The incidence (when the disease first starts) of IBD across the population seems to be occurring earlier and earlier in life. At the start of Richard's career it was rare to see a patient below the age of five presenting to hospital with symptoms, now days it is becoming more common. The environment and its impact on the microbiome may be the key driver for this. There are clear changes that are observed in microbiome studies in patients with reduced IBD, namely: reductions in diversity (how many bacteria are there and how evenly are they spread), and increases / decreases in particular bacteria.    Exclusive internal nutrition (EEN) is a term used to describe a 6-8 week course of an entirely liquid diet. The data suggests 4 out of 5 paediatric patients suffering from Crohn's disease enter remission (where the gut is healed and there is no active disease causing symptoms) after a course of EEN. It thought that the longer the course of EEN the more effective it is.    EEN is becoming much more popular in adult therapy, however its uptake is limited due to social constraints. Richard and a team working at the University of Glasgow are developing a less socially restrictive diet that mimics the effects of EEN. The programme of work is called CD-treat.    Intestinal microbiota transfer (IMT) involves the movement of microorganisms from one person into another with the intention of treating a disease. Six randomised controlled trials have been published in UC so far, with a definite signal towards IMT being effective. Richard is hopeful that these studies will pave the way for new treatment options in IBD.

Similarly fat on the outside ofatherosclerotcic blood vessles correlates with the severity of inflammation.Fat is not the cause . It is there because of the inflammation and the inflammation is theredue to the leaky gut.The immune system responds to antigens on bacteria of viruses. Lectins have antigens withcross reactivity with other proteins in the body.

Pre and Probiotic Use in SIBO In this episode, Dr Nirala Jacobi is in conversation with Dr Jason Hawrelak on the topic of all things gut. Dr Hawrelak is a researcher, lecturer, naturopath, and nutritionist with over 16 years of clinical experience.  He also practices at Gould's Natural Medicine - a 135 year old natural medicine apothecary and clinic in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia.   Dr Hawrelak completed his PhD examining the capacity of probiotics, prebiotics, and herbal medicines to modify the gastrointestinal tract microbiota.  He is currently the senior lecturer in Complementary and Alternative Medicines at the University of Tasmania's School of Medicine where he coordinates the evidence based complementary medicines programs.  Dr Hawrelak also teaches the gastrointestinal imbalances unit, within the Masters of Science and Human Nutrition, and Functional Medicine Program at the University of Western States, in Portland, Oregon.   Topics discussed in this episode include: Dr Hawrelak's 2016 lecture on Pre and Probiotics at the SIBO Summit 2017 - still available to practitioners as part of the SIBO Fundamentals online course. The website Dr Hawrelak developed, Probiotic Advisor, to help practitioners differentiate which probiotic strains and products are appropriate to different conditions. Recent probiotic research (2017) in relation to SIBO treatment and methane reduction. The importance of strain specificity in relation to therapeutic effect. Reseeding the gut with exogenous probiotics as an outdated concept, and the history of this ideology. Faecal transplants and the capacity of strains to remain in the gut as compared to probiotics taken in capsule form that does not. What metabolic modulation actions do probiotics have in the body, and how to integrate this with background changes to enhance the therapeutic effect. D-lactate V.S. L-lactate producing probiotic strains, and what systemic effects do each trigger? D-lactic acidosis and when this may occur. SIBO related symptom presentation and strain specificity for probiotic therapy, for symptoms such as motility issues, abdominal hypersensitivity, histamine issues, food reactions.   Motility Probiomax for motility Bifidobacterium Lactis HNO19 - 1-2 capsules per day. BB12 Bifidobacterium Lactis for motility. Suggestions on the combination use in children with constipation. Animal study showing probiotic strains that work on the migrating motor complex function - prokinetic potential. Combination of L. Rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium BB12, and inulin.   Abdominal hypersensitivity in SIBO Bifidobacterium Infantis 35624 Align Rhamnosus GG Functional abdominal pain in kids - meta analysis supporting this therapeutic application. Nissle 1917 strain of E.Coli Bifidobacterium Lactis DN173010 Speed up transit time Decrease pain and bloating Yoghurt brand, Activia, available in US, is the only available form (as currently known)   Leaky Gut Probiotics useful in helping to repair leaky gut Rhamnosus LGG Biocodex preparation of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae/Boulardii   Histamine Intolerance Infiltration of mast cells into the intestinal wall in SIBO and histamine implication. Probiotics and histamine degradation - investigating Rhamnosus Infantis Plantarum Probiotics and histamine upregulation - investigating Casei Bulgaricus High-fat diets producing many bile salts, which feed hydrogen sulfide producing bacteria, and hydrogen sulfide gas contributing to leaky gut. Higher fat diets contributing to diamine oxidase (DAO) enzyme overuse in the small intestine and why this is relevant to histamine. Ketogenic diets and symptom resolution - why is this, and is it sustainable? The impact of starving out butyrate producing colonic flora. The risk of ketogenic diets.   Continued How to reintroduce foods to sensitive patients Heal gut Decrease inflammation Work on allergy axis to increase dietary diversity Partially hydrolysed guar gum (PHGG) as a prebiotic Probiotics as aiding in the recovery of the microbiome after an insult, eg chemotherapy, antibiotics, radiotherapy etc. Prebiotics and changes of diet having a greater impact on the gut microbiome. Jason's prebiotic use PHGG - use in functional constipation patients, non-methane type SIBO, and diarrhoea type stool conditions. Helps to normalise stool. Bimuno - galacto oligosaccharides Bringing bifidobacterium, and faecalibacterium prausnitzii populations back. Faecalibacterium prausnitzii: The single species with the highest prevalence in healthy people. Predominant butyrate producer. Produces another anti-inflammatory gut healing compound, so helpful for inflammatory bowel diseases. Higher levels as protective against metabolic syndrome and Type 2 Diabetes. Akkermansia Accounts for 1-3% of the microbiome in healthy people. Eats mucin, therefore if inflamed guts producing a lot of mucus can overgrow akkermansia. Lactulose Use as a prebiotic. Increases faecalibacterium prausnitzii, akkermansia, and bifidobacteria, lactobacilli. Use as a pH changer - moves environment to be more beneficially acidic. Amazing capacity to decrease Bacteroides numbers - which can increase after multiple courses of antibiotics. SIBO positive on Lactulose breath test patients - to attend to SIBO with therapy first before using Lactulose as a prebiotic. Lactulose uses in recurrent urinary tract infections as supported by clinical trials - as it decreases levels of E.coli in the gut so fewer pathogens can make the journey from the anus, to the vagina, to the urethra. Prokinetic for small intestine and when it is appropriate to use it in SIBO. Note: lactulose will increase gas, but not bloating. If bloating, cease use.
