The latest probiotic drink: a baby poo smoothie
The Times ^ | 23 Aug 18 | Tom Whipple

It’s healthy, it’s organic, it already comes at a smoothie-like consistency — and it uses a resource that we would otherwise just throw away. What’s not to like about the latest promising probiotic supplement?

Well, there’s the fact that it comes out of a baby’s bottom.

Scientists have created a health “cocktail” made from scouring the nappies of infants and then culturing the bacteria they find within.

Yup just recently there was an article about a woman who was stealing baby diapers to eat the contents.

a baby poo smoothie

That describes, incidentally, what I am asked to consume every time I hear the national news on the local radio stations and every time I happen to glance over the local newspaper someone left at the table.

Probiotic, it ain't.

Now we’ll get to see how far-out the snake-oil probiotic crowd really is. LOL. What’s next in lunacy for our entertainment?

This probably all started on a bet.

“Bet you $10 I can get people to drink baby shit.”

My mom told us that when my older sisters were babies, my parents were in New York City driving around and one baby did a humongous diarrhea crap in her cloth diaper. Dad bundled the diaper into a paper bag and tossed it into a garbage receptacle. While looking behind the car as they drove away, they saw a man run to the garbage can grabbing the bag and running off with it. Bon appetite!

In order to do the consumer any good, the eubacteria must first survive transitting the stomach, and if it’s a big meal it can get to a pH of maybe 1.8 —pretty acidic.

The acid activates the pepsin required to digest proteins.

Baby poo stuffed up your keister, somehow..? That might work.

Or put it in some huge enteric capsule, and it might dissolve in your GUT, which is where you would need it.

In the STOMACH..?

Sorry, I don’t get it. Smells suspiciously like Hollywood.

What a bunch of crap! Something is wrong with people who think they should eat what the body rejects and expels.

How do they get rid of the disgusting green color? Is this Essence du Caca even FDA approved?
