From my basic understanding of gut science, the bacteria that do the actual digestion for you grow and multiply based on what you eat. So if you're a professional athlete and you eat a diet tailored for performance you'll have more bacteria for digesting protein and carbohydrates. If you're a normal schlub like us you'll have a mix of stuff depending on what you tend to eat.

You cam shift your gut flora but it takes years and years of work to do but fecal transplants basically put a whole package of the bacteria you want directly into your gut kick starting that shift if you're feeding them the stuff that they want.

I've read about this sort of thing for trying to cure various gastro-intestinal conditions like crohns but not specifically for performance gains. Sounds possibly legit but as with all "miracle treatments" potentially complete bullshit magic beans.

I should sell my shit. I don't gain weight regardless of how much I eat. Anyone want to try some?

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 35 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yes. Please mail it to 1600 Pensilvania Ave, Washington DC

[–] icelimit@lemmy.ml 7 points 10 months ago

Looks like a big house. How about a million couric's worth for everyone there?

[–] Sadbutdru@sopuli.xyz 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I was like that until I discovered i had coeliac disease in my mid 30s. Once I stopped eating gluten and my gut repaired, I put on weight and had to start paying attention to what I eat like a normal person. Enjoy your superpower while it lasts.

[–] 474D@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Uh oh... I have all those symptoms

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Get checked. Celiac is very dangerous if not accommodated for

[–] icelimit@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Pretty sure I don't have that as my diet is already mostly gluten free. Or should I get it checked out? My dad's side of the family is also all skinny

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You might just be an ectomorph, that's hereditary. Iirc it's caused by a fast metabolism, whatever that means

[–] icelimit@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago

Ectomorph? Can I shape shift?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

My gut flora watching the 16th fun sized Snickers bar in 2 hrs come sliding down the pipeline

[–] BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I suppose "bullshit magic beans" means we can eat grass now?

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 2 points 10 months ago

No, because our stomachs still do most of the work. It just makes it easier for the fuy fauna to access other nutrients.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Years and years is an edge case. Within a year or so you'll notice the changes. Changes I've personally experienced include cutting out sugar and substitutes and completely losing my sweet tooth within a few months, and quitting meat and after about a year I could tell whenever I accidentally eat it from the gastrointestinal discomfort.

The thing is you gotta commit to it.

[–] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 24 points 10 months ago

If you don’t want to eat shit, try eating fermented food, especially stuff you ferment yourself. Kimchi, sauerkraut, fermented pickles…all good for refreshing your gut biome.

[–] myster0n@feddit.nl 24 points 10 months ago (1 children)

[–] onslaught545@lemmy.zip 17 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Fecal transplanting is actually a legitimate medical treatment.

[–] starchylemming@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

indeed ...and yet!

"eat shit"

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

True, but surely it doesn't work the way South Park joked about.

[–] thagoat 14 points 10 months ago

Enshitification

[–] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

...I would try it. My gut biome is shot.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Years of drinking destroyed mine, and it's all my fault. I would also try it.

[–] salacious_coaster@infosec.pub 3 points 10 months ago

Same. There was no other way! 🥂

[–] frog@feddit.uk 13 points 10 months ago

You almost gave me a heart attack. I thought this was an ad placed in Lemmy.

You scared the shit out of me.

Why do I have the urge to go to the gym?

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 11 points 10 months ago

TIL: I’d rather not crush it at the gym

[–] Zamboni_Driver@lemmy.ca 11 points 10 months ago

The spice melange

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 10 points 10 months ago

Literal shitpost.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ok, but like... Couldn't they isolate and identify the bacteria strains and then make them fresh? Maybe 2 or 3 generations removed from direct poop? And like wash your hands between handling the poop and making the pill? Or does that defeat the purpose?

[–] ImWaitingForRetcons@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The first part is not feasible, since the microbiome has thousands, if not tens of thousands, of distinct species, we aren’t at a point where we could individually isolate, analyse, and reproduce all of these strains successfully.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ugh, fine, I'll eat the poop I guess.

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 5 points 10 months ago

Goodish news..... You wouldn't be eating the poop. It'd be thrown in a blender until it reached an enema appropriate viscosity.

[–] devilish666@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

[–] Proprietary_Blend@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

CRUSHING IT AT THE GYM IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD! GIMME THE POOP!!

[–] Rhaxapopouetl@ttrpg.network 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Please, tell me at least that it's not intended to be put in the mouth...

[–] Bigfish@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 10 months ago

👉💊🍑

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 6 points 10 months ago

Turns out my dog was an athlete all along

[–] Ypsilenna@lemmy.zip 6 points 10 months ago

I thought eating healthier specimens' poop was what rodents did. The last time I checked, humans weren't classified as rodents 😂

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

South Park was on point with this episode

[–] Emi@ani.social 5 points 10 months ago

So basically This southpark episode.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago

I would like to buy your shit, please.

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

"Work out longer" so... more exercise? No thank you.

[–] highlow@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I'll pass
