Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT)
Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) is an emerging therapeutic option designed to restore a pet’s gut microbiome by replenishing beneficial bacteria in the right proportions. The gut microbiome—an ecosystem of microbes living in the intestines—plays a crucial role in digestive health and influences other organ systems, including the kidneys and brain.
Overview
FMT is primarily used to support pets with gastrointestinal conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by promoting a balanced and healthy microbiome. This innovative therapy offers a natural approach to improving gut function and overall well-being.
