Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Please also avoid duplicates.
Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

There is a gastrointestinal issue that uses poop as the fix in modern medicine. It's all about the application.
A doctor in Ajax Ontario saved a man who was dying of a antibiotic resistant infection. He made a poo milkshake to colonize the infection with other microbes. Once the resistant bacteria were outcompeted by the fecal sourced regular bacteria, a regular course of antibiotics cleared the dude up.
Yeah, fecal transplants are a legitimate medical procedure.
