Abstract

Faecal Microbiota Transfer/Transplantation (FMT) has seen impressive clinical outcomes in treating a range of disorders and illnesses. However there are few studies addressing short-term or long-term outcomes for healthy volunteers undergoing FMT with no predetermined specific therapeutic goals. This case examines the personal experience of two healthy subjects who underwent FMT and reported novel outcomes post transfer. Outcomes included change in body odour, mood and cognition. Further studies are required to illuminate the extent of extra-gastrointestinal effects associated with FMT and the mechanisms by which they occur.
