OpenBiome: Fecal Transplant (Poop For Cash)
If you read about this next way to make money in a forum you might think it was rubbish. It is actually genuine.
Did you know you can donate your stools (poop) for cash and save lives at the same time?
Yes, you can!
Why Would Someone Pay Cash For Your Stools?
Did you know your stools can save lives?
"Clostridium difficile" is an aggressive gut infection that affects about 500,000 Americans per year. The bacteria can cause extreme gastrointestinal distress, leaving some sufferers housebound.
It can cause kidney disease, even death. Every year, about 30,000 people die from Clostridium difficile related causes. One in five patients find that the infection comes back, even after taking antibiotics.
Where antibiotics have failed, a new treatment called Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) has been shown to be effective 85% after the first try.
In the procedure, stool from a healthy donor is transplanted into a patient's colon.
OpenBiome, a nonprofit stool bank, helps expand safe access to fecal transplants and catalyzing research on the human microbiome, by screening donors and processing their stool to produce fecal microbiota preparations for use in clinical settings.
Your donation could help change someone's life. That is why someone is willing to pay cash for your stools.
