Stool samples from the intestines of healthy people could revolutionize cancer treatment. Scientists have already achieved astonishing results in their first experiments.

It would undoubtedly be a huge success for cancer research to use the simple colonization of beneficial bacteria against malignant tumors instead of debilitating chemotherapy and broad-spectrum antibiotics. In the future, the transplantation of one's own stool samples from healthy patients whose intestinal flora is not sufficiently armed against cancer could receive the bacterial strains from the feces of the healthy patients. Such treatments could not only increase the success rate of previous therapies, but possibly even replace them in the long term.
