Take it from someone who has read all of said emails: no, they don't prove that.

I am totally flabbergasted that the most basic tenet here is being ignored: THIS WAS NEVER PROVEN TO BE SAFE! It also doesn't allow for any sort of effects the average Joe might not think of, such as possible medium and longer term longitudinal psychological or neurological effects that could ONLY be associated via longitudinal study. But at the same time people are acknowledging faecal transmission can help with certain diseases (that is, ignoring things such as the FACT that the gut biome also is involved in things like serotonin and dopamine uptake).

I think you are all simply ripping this apart because your egos won't accept you could be wrong. How disappointing from a group of people I would expect a more scientific and thoughtful approach from. What are the basic tenets of pharmaceutical toxicology and safety? Or epidemiological research? Who cares.
