Dr. Neil and I dive into the complexity of the gut microbiome, challenging the notion that a single probiotic strain can fix everything. We explore how diversity—not one 'superbug'—may be the real key to gut health. We also unpack how fecal transplants work, why antibiotics often do more harm than good, and if fermented foods are necessary or ideal.
Dr. Neil Stollman is a practicing gastroenterologist based in Oakland, California, and serves as voluntary faculty at UCSF. A pioneer in the field of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), he has been involved in gut microbiome research and treatment for over two decades. Known for his work with Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) and broader gut health issues, Dr. Stollman brings a balanced and often humorous perspective to microbiome science.
