Moving on from discussing the organisms in the typical kefir drink this book also introduces the next and logical organic step in bacteriotherapy - FMT - Fecal Microbiota Transplant. A quick introductory explanation of how to help restore damaged or deficient gut flora on a much larger scale than can be achieved by diet alone.
