Evaluation and Discussion
Transplant Evaluation:. | Moderate improvement of symptoms |
Pre- and post-transplant flora balance test changes:. | [pre-transplant]The lack of diversity in the flora is a result of eating what you want, doing what you want, and living a self-centered life, which has led to this balance.
Although partial improvement can be expected from transplantation, mental reinforcement may be a priority for lasting relief. [Post-transplant] August 2018. The overall balance is markedly improved by diversification of Clostridium genus, improvement of the balance of Clostridium genus that controls the mental aspect, and increase of Lactobacillus group. If I may say so, if the ratio of bifidobacteria increases a little more, the genus Bacteroides will be able to perform its original functions such as production of organic acids, and I expect that both mental and physical symptoms will be further improved. |
Blood test changes:. | [After transplantation] None |
POMS2 SCORE CHANGE:. | [After transplantation] None |
