I would add, that this study and others point that FMT is not the magic bullet that everyone hoped

This is an interesting study. Most patients here in the US are often given a Vanco taper as treatment prior to FMT being considered. It often has to do with insurance and most have to fail 3 treatments . In the study, that is the treatment they are comparing to the FMT. I also noticed this was a FMT via enema and not colonoscopy which is generally done.
