I saw a news report on fecal transplant. Some lady that had full body radiation and a bone marrow transplant was having um, "digestive" problems. The show showed some fit 20 something bike delivery service rider vegetarian. He provided the donation, and some poor lab worker basically blended it into a puree, and used a pill making machine to load it into capsules. The capsules were designed to survive the stomach and not dissolve until they were in the right part of her guts.
They cut to the lady eating a large number of the pills and a couple of days later she was feeling better.
It is a gross idea, but she said next to the bone marrow transplant that saved her life it was a very important part of returning to health.
