Fecal transplants - otherwise known as poop in a pill - are now a routine treatment at St. Joseph's Health Care London for a life-threatening condition called Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) – the major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. This novel treatment is also showing promise in helping combat illnesses such as skin, renal and pancreatic cancer, HIV, multiple sclerosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and more. Learn more about how donated poop is making its way into guts in the latest episode of the Doctalks Podcast with host Ian Gillespie and guest Dr. Michael Silverman, St. Joseph's Chief of Infectious Diseases and scientist with Lawson Health Research Institute.
