Fecal Transplants for ABS
People with Auto-Brewery Syndrome that does not respond to conventional treatments often talk about the possibility of Fecal Microbiota Transplants (FMT) might be an answer to their chronic illness. Hope recently became available in two forms, 1) an article out of Belgium about a patient with ABS who received FMT with success (see resources for reference) and 2) a new documentary called Designer Shit. It’s not been released yet but has a website that directs people to clinics willing to try FMT for various gastro-intestinal (GI) problems such as Crohn’s disease. Currently, FMT is only approved for c. diff in the USA; everything else is experimental. Stay tuned!
