I've spent the past year living in my car in DC, visiting the Congressional offices most days. I started making social media videos to show people what I'm doing and try to get help.

A synthetic microbiome therapy, tested in mice, holds promise as a new treatment for C. difficile, a notoriously difficult-to-treat bacterial infection, according to a team of researchers at Penn State. The targeted treatment was as effective as human fecal transplants in mice against C. difficile infection with fewer safety concerns, protect against severe symptoms and decrease recurrent infections.

There are links near the bottom with more info. Here are the key points: The gut microbiome influences every aspect of human health and development. https://humanmicrobiome.info/intro/ FMT (fecal microbiota transplant) is the most studied and promising intervention to correct “gut dysbiosis”, and thus treat, and potentially cure, numerous diseases. It transfers the beneficial microbes from a healthy person to a sick person. https://humanmicrobiome.info/fmt/ People healthy enough to be highly s...
Two new blogs. $1 million per stool, the FDA and FMT part 2.
1. Highly effective stool donors will now be paid 1 million dollars for their poop. And offering a half-a-million-dollar reward for anyone who recruits one. https://www.humanmicrobes.org/blog/is-a-million-dollars-enough-for-your-poop
2. The FDA and FMT regulation. Part 2. I met with the FDA. Here's what I shared with them, and their response. https://www.humanmicrobes.org/blog/the-fda-and-fmt-regulation-part-2
My response to the May 2024 Slate.com article titled
"The Poop Broker. Michael Harrop started a booming underground market for human feces. But something smells off about his product"
https://slate.com/life/2024/05/fecal-transplant-fmt-c-diff-microbiome-poop-black-market.html Kind of an odd article. Amusing, seemingly agenda-driven, occasionally deceptive, but not all bad. I'm curious what impact this article will have. Will it be better or worse than the "complete silence"...
Hundreds of millions of people are suffering from conditions that are likely curable with an existing, simple treatment, yet virtually none of them are willing to spend some time learning about it or lift a finger to help acquire it.
This includes people with all the time and money in the world.
How is it that a single disabled patient is the only one willing to do anything about it?
In response to an FDA warning letter, I posted two new blogs on the FDA, FMT regulation, AI, funding, and more.

Michael Harrop Q&A (Nov 2023)

An artist sent me some questions. I thought they were good questions so I took the time to answer in depth.
An artist sent me some questions. I thought they were good questions so I took the time to answer in depth. In your opinion, what is the long term vision for saving our modern guts? I like this question. The vast majority of futuristic predictions/scenarios I see are completely wrong...
Lots of people ask for updates and it's been nearly a year since the last one. I don't really want to write a blog as the only change is that we've received over a million applicants. Feedback/ideas are welcome on the forum https://forum.humanmicrobiome.info/threads/thoughts-on-humanmicrobes-donor-problem.163/
Hi forum. I'm a dilettante when it comes to the microbiome, but on HumanMicrobes and its struggles to find adequate donors, I have some feedback to offer. For one, the result that most donor samples are unhealthy should not be a surprise. Mailing your stool sample to a random address in the...
