We all know that bodily donations, from organs to blood, are needed for various medical surgeries and treatment.
But what we didn’t know until today was that faeces aka poo is also something is needed as a donation. No shit!
As per reports, faecal matter transplants are required to treat certain gut conditions, and currently, in Australia, the demand for healthy stool supplies is high.
Since the transplants have had a high success rate in the past, ‘poo banks’ have cropped in Australia where people can donate healthy stool samples. And it’s not just in Australia. Even the USA has a nonprofit stool bank, called the OpenBiome.
Now if only there was a place to dump all the ‘shit’ that life deals our way too!
