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?
I’m already knowledgeable on study of the human microbiome. That’s why I’m commenting on here. Having a “perfect” biome still wouldn’t prevent all cancers. Non-Hodgekins POST lymphoma for example. Rare, yes, but still thousands of people. And when you count all rare and unusual cancers it’s still millions. And there’s still no good evidence that the perfect biome would stop an existing cancer.
Speaking of, it also wouldn’t help anyone with an organ transplant either. You’d still need immunosuppressants (or the newer drug class, immuneobliviants) which would still affect the biome. At least until compatible organs can be lab grown.
There is evidence that it would immensely help with preventing nearly all human-cell borne cancers however, and in my opinion, THAT’S something your messaging should focus strongly on. Having a proven potential to stop a majority of cancers is still huge, and to the less knowledgeable person, sounds much more realistic and obtainable.
This is not correct. Not everyone gets sick from x virus.
Ah but see you’re admitting people still will get sick with currently incurable diseases. That’s what I meant about your messaging being flawed - you’re touting this as a cure all, when really it’s a mass preventative (which again, is still extremely important and something really big).
The email linked to the blog. The question was asked at the end of the blog.

I explained the other reasons, but a link doesn’t help. Phishing is one big reason.
However later in your comment you mention the email was sent to people in a mailing list, which I’m assuming means they voluntarily enrolled.
In that case, it goes back to messaging. It still sounds like a scam. That’s still the core issue in all this: how your message is presented.
