Just one scoop of your poop can contribute to GROUNDBREAKING RESEARCH that will benefit the present and future generations to come.

WHY

Your gut is home to trillions of micro-organisms that help us function in several important ways.

POOP TO SAVE LIVES

The Gut Microbiome Transplant (GMT) preparations derived from poop donations can save the life of patients suffering from Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infections. At present, the global average success rate of finding suitable GMT donors is very low (~2%).

Your poop also contributes to groundbreaking research to treat 50 other serious conditions, including Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), autism, Parkinson’s Disease and many others.

POOP FOR SCIENCE

Your poop helps build an Asia-specific gut microbiome database to ensure innovations and therapies developed will be effective for people living across Asia.

I was somewhat sceptical about GMT but I used it on my patient with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis with refractory C. difficile. She is now in clinical remission without requiring further biologic therapy

When I learned about stool donation, I found that the whole donation process was very easy, and clean. Being a stool donor is meaningful to me, as I can potentially make a difference and save someone’s life.

New discoveries are being made every day about the gut microbiome and we are at a very exciting and critical moment to translate some of these findings into improving health outcomes and helping our patients. Many of the current studies are done in the West, and hence, there is a great need for clinical data and more biobanking of samples in Asia, in support of important clinical research work on the Asian population.

– Associate Professor Sunny Wong, Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, Nanyang Technological University

After being diagnosed with C.diff, I had diarrhoea for more than five times a day where I continued to lose weight and was hospitalised. The GMT procedure was painless, and without side effects – after the procedure, I saw progress on the second day, and by the end of the week, my appetite had improved, and my stool no longer smelt odd.

– GMT patient, H. Y.

The gut microbiome, the diverse ecosystem of bacteria and other organisms within our gut, is the new health frontier. A healthy microbiome is essential for good wellbeing, while many of the increasingly common "modern" diseases relate to a disturbed balance of bugs in our gut. Restoring the microbiome can be very effective in treating and curing some diseases. The most effective way of doing this is by transferring good gut bugs from a healthy person by faecal microbial transplantation, otherwise known as "poo transplant", to someone in need. Healthy people need to step up and make a donation - this is cheap and easy to do but can make a big difference to sick people in need.

– Professor Dr Michael A Kamm, Gastroenterologist St Vincent’s Hospital, Professor at the University of Melbourne

The possibilities of what gut microbiome modification can achieve in improving human health are hugely promising! That said, there remains a gap in research and public awareness, especially in this part of the world. I would encourage more people to learn about the impact of gut health on overall well-being, and also consider donating their microbiome to advance scientific research discovery.
