MaximilianKohler OP ,

I’d automatically assume it’s a scam, spam, or both.

Why?

The email linked to the blog. The question was asked at the end of the blog.

Even if a panacea type microbiome WAS discord, it won’t cure everything. Cancer is one immediate example.

You may be interested in humanmicrobiome.info/cancer/.

It already would be impossible for it to prevent many diseases. Viruses for example that enter through the sinuses, or again, cancers caused by viruses. Heck even then something like norovirus would still wreck you too.

This is not correct. Not everyone gets sick from x virus. The primary reason is differences in their immune system and gut microbiome. Some relevant links for you:

This sounds more like someone who knows some knowledge but isn’t an actual expert in it

No offense, but that describes your comment. The blog should absolutely not sound like that given that it provides citations for its claims.

Not to mention it’s a big ask to strangers who probably don’t even know what a microbiome is.

The 1.2 million people who were sent the email & blog are people who are already familiar with the humanmicrobes.org project. Many of them hold advanced medical & biology degrees.

I agree though that many people are still not familiar with the gut microbiome and FMT. Do you have any suggestion in this regard?
