The Gut Reset Revolution: How Microbiome Transplants Are Reversing Chronic Disease

Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is emerging as a breakthrough treatment for patients who've exhausted conventional and functional medicine options. Dr. Pedram Shojai sits down with Dr. Jason Klop and neuroscientist Dr. Shaina Cahill to explore how this ancient practice—dating back to 4th century China—is now backed by modern science and delivering remarkable results for conditions ranging from IBS and IBD to autism, Parkinson's, and beyond.

This conversation reveals why the gut microbiome is the foundation of whole-body health, how FMT works by transplanting an entire healthy ecosystem rather than isolated probiotic strains, and what rigorous donor screening and manufacturing processes ensure both safety and efficacy. The discussion covers who benefits most from FMT, proper preparation protocols, and the critical lifestyle factors needed to maintain results long-term.

For those suffering from chronic gut conditions who've been told they're "probably crazy" by conventional medicine, this episode offers hope through science-based solutions that address root causes rather than managing symptoms.
