Doctor curing stubborn IBD with one dose of FMT

Guys, read how this Chinese doctor is curing IBD such as crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis with one FMT dose but instead of injecting fecal matter up from anus, he’s using a tube through the mouth or nose leading past the stomach and right into the small intestine. Very clever. The results have been phenomenal. So my idea is not so bad after all. I suggested that usual way of just injecting from the colon is not enough because the small intestine is left intacted and proposed to apply from small intestine first. I think probably the best way, if resources allow is to have two doses, one into the small intestine from the mouth, and one right into the colon from the anus. Continue with a healthy diet for a month to make sure the balanced gut microbiota is stable.

Sounds promising! Usually it takes a couple of years for experimental treatment to make its way to the West, but I can wait if this is a cure. Thanks for the link.
