Where is science today in
MicroBiota Therapy?
What do we know, and what are we missing?
Science is constantly evolving. Today, publications on the role of microbiota transfer in tumor management are often met with the same skepticism as those published over a decade ago about the adverse effects of antibiotics in food on gut flora. However, for many diseases, even individuals without a professional background now recognize the importance of the diversity, balance, and monitoring of the microorganisms in our gut. This growing awareness is likely why you have come to our site.
While the creation of a perfectly functioning and stable ecosystem under artificial conditions may remain out of reach for decades, the transfer of microbiota from healthy individuals—known as Microbiota Transfer Therapy (MTT)—has become a routine and accessible therapeutic option.
To begin, we will explain how we understand the role of the microorganisms living in our gut today. Next, we will outline the therapeutic options available for various diseases. Finally, we will guide you on how to access MicroBiome Bank capsules tailored to specific disease groups.
Patient safety
is our top priority,
that is why MicroBiome Bank implements a more comprehensive donor screening protocol than what is required by regulatory standards. This includes a multi-step process that accounts for latency periods.

In addition to AutoBiome capsules (for storing your own microbiota) and DiffBiome capsules (for treating Clostridium difficile infections), MicroBiome Bank offers other services tailored for patients. However, except for the two cases mentioned above, these services may require the assistance of a specialist. We strongly recommend consulting your doctor before ordering any capsules. Please note that MicroBiome Bank does not provide direct patient care. The purpose of consultations is to develop a treatment protocol tailored to each patient, which can be most effectively implemented by the appropriate specialist.

Visit Our Blog
Over the past decade, our knowledge of the human microbiota has expanded significantly. However, it is challenging to select from the vast amount of available information those clinical studies, summaries, and presentations that hold real and tangible significance, are understandable, and can be applied in everyday clinical practice. On our page, we aim to collect and provide commentary in clear, accessible language on articles we consider credible and useful in the field of health restoration.
