Clostridium difficile treatment by Fecal Transplant finally approved by the FDA - July 2024
The Future of FMT: How Fecal Transplants are Evolving to Treat New Conditions
Fecal transplants could prevent 12,000 C.difficile deaths a year, but one person died, so lets wait – July 2019
Fact: 15,000 people are dying each year in US hospitals due to Clostridioides difficile
Fact: Fecal Transplants have been found to prevent at least 80% of Clostridioides difficile deaths
Fact: One person died one year of Fecal Translant (the donor had a deadly infection)
Conclusion: Let 11,999 people die each year until we agree on how to inspect the fecal transplants for infections

- But strong regulation is a must to protect patient safety
- “An estimated 15,000 deaths are directly attributable to C. diff infections.”

- “Fecal bacteriotherapy, also known as a stool transplant, is roughly 85% to 90% effective in those for whom antibiotics have not worked.”

- “Efficacy rates ranged from 43.8% to 96.2% with FMT, and safety data were relatively similar”
- Fecal transplants greatly reduce Clostridium difficile - RCT June 2018
Vitamin D also fights C.diff
- Superbug (Clostridium difficile) 4.7X more of a problem if low vitamin D – Sept 2013
- 2X more likely to kill superbug in 1 month with adequate level of vitamin D
- Superbug (Clostridium difficile) Infections strongly associated with low vitamin D – Nov 2014
