They're constantly communicating.
The bugs are producing this metabolite that regulates the immune system.
Immune system is there to make sure everything's clean, everything's organized, nothing's getting on the other side to cause infections.
So they're in constant crosstalk.
And then when someone has cancer or an inflammatory condition or a disease like chronic condition, so that microbiome, the gut microbiome doesn't look normal or healthy anymore.
For most part, it actually looks diseased.
It's not doing its function that well.
So and then what happens, the idea here is that what happens if we reset the microbiome?
We take somebody's
Healthy microbiome, it's like a kidney transplant, if you will.
Get somebody's kidney, put it in somebody else's body who needs a kidney, and then you're hoping that the body accepts it.
That actually happens again with our transplants as well.
The process is the scientific term for it is fecal microbiota transplant, which is a mouthful, or FMT.
Exactly, meaning that you're getting stool from someone, processing the microbiome, putting it with somebody else.
Now, if that new microbiome takes, now what happens is that it starts to communicate with the immune system.
And why that is important in cancer patients?
Because a lot of drugs we are using today for cancer treatment work through the immune system, through activating the immune system.
They don't directly cure cancer, such as the chemotherapy drugs used to do.
They actually go activate the immune cells, and the immune cells go and fight cancer.
