Truly life changing

1. Customer Testimonial (friendly & persuasive) I had several questions during the buying process, and Michael patiently answered each one in detail, making me feel confident in my purchase. When an unexpected incident caused me to lose my entire order, he went out of his way to replace it at minimal cost—a level of customer service that’s rare to find. The quality of this product is outstanding. HumanMicrobes is extremely transparent about its donors and has screened over one million applicants to ensure only the best. I’ve personally experienced tremendous benefits from their product, and I couldn’t recommend it more highly. ⸻ 2. Formal Business Review (professional & concise) Throughout the purchasing process, Michael demonstrated exceptional professionalism and patience, providing detailed answers to all inquiries. Following an incident that resulted in the loss of my order, he promptly arranged a full replacement at minimal cost. HumanMicrobes sets itself apart through its rigorous donor screening—over one million applicants have been evaluated—and its commitment to transparency. The product itself is of the highest quality available on the market, from which I have derived substantial personal benefit.

Terrible email response. No respect at all. No hello, no "customer services", very cold response to tell you to read the entire forum posts to get answer from the questions you ask regarding the request (lol). Note that he got banned from many spaces and has not official expertise on the subject apart from 2000s looks like forum and wiki. Be cautious for your *ss, poop is precious and require diligence;

I had many questions during the buying process. Michael was patient enough to answer all of my questions in great detail. There was also an incident that made me lose my entire purchase. Michael was able to replace my entire purchase for minimal cost! Most importantly, this is the highest quality stool in the market. Humanmicrobes is extremely transparent about their donors and have screened over one million applicants. I personally have benefitted greatly from their product.

I wish they would answer me

I wish they would answer me. I have contacted multiple times within the last month and not email or call back at all. I am very interested in donating and what they do and I would like to be apart of the cause if only they messaged back. I have filled out all I needed to that was required.

Michael is probably the most…

Michael is probably the most knowledgeable person in this field. I've been to multiple FMT clinics around the world and the donor arranged by Michael was hands down the highest quality. If you're considering FMT, I highly advise you to go with Michael and read through the necessary material to understand the treatment and the factors that affect success or failure. It may seem easier to just go to some clinic that looks professional and well put together but at the end of the day, donor quality is all that matters. The price is also significantly cheaper than what these clinics will charge you.

Doing FMT the right way

Though my problem was not completely resolved, the basis for how Michael deciphers which prospects to use and which to not, is done properly and with care. The 23,000 individuals screened shows that human microbes is not just taking in anyone to use as a donor. You can use them with trust.

Excellent on every level

The entire process of working with HumanMicrobes has been nothing short of outstanding. Michael is incredibly and unusually transparent, highly communicative, and exceedingly moral. He interviewed thousands of people and filtered most of them out because of his high bar for safety and quality. He worked with me and other interested people to choose the most appropriate tests for donors to take, and he posted clear and honest reviews of his own experiences with the donor.

Very transparent

Very transparent, lots of donor info. Got what I paid for, exactly as described, and very fast. It wasn't a fit for me (we are all trying to treat different issues, some will have more success than others) but I am so grateful that a healthy, screened donor was available for me to try. Both the donor and Human Microbes are great.

Completely cured, no side effects, transparency is second to none

I had severe eczema over most of my body and had become resistant to every single topical medication on the market. My only option was a treatment plan that involved weekly injections for the rest of my life, and it would cost $37,000 annually. I refused. After connecting the dots that my eczema began after I was prescribed Doxycycline - a broad spectrum oral antibiotic - I looked into FMT providers. Most faced issues with donor quality, shady owners, and lack of transparency. Human Microbes set itself apart from the competition by providing a list of candidates, making arrangements for their comprehensive blood panels and stool tests, provided their survey results (e.g. antibiotics usage, athleticism, caesarean birth, diet), and more. They have gone above and beyond to ensure that the only donors accepted are the safest and highest quality possible. The process on part of us recipients was straightforward, send a copy of an order form and payment, and Human Microbes takes care of everything else. I can't begin to express my level of gratitude for this organization. My GP and dermatologist were absolutely shocked, as my eczema has been completely cured - not reduced, but in total remission. I no longer require any treatment whatsoever. Other health issues I believed were unrelated such as anxiety, acne, and fatigue were also alleviated, with no adverse side effects. That is a testament to the high standards of quality control on part of Human Microbes. Huge thanks to them and to the donor they found for me. Hands down the best and safest provider that exists right now.

The best step yet towards fixing the global crisis of missing microbes

Background: I've had gradually worsening gut issues for most of my life, which was exacerbated by antimicrobials, culminating in extreme and chronic fatigue, brain fog, gas/bloating, digestive inability, and post bowel movement symptoms - unable to digest even a gram of protein or fat, or poop, without severely exacerbating the preceding symptoms, and had lost my education and job prospects as a result. Since realizing the key was gut dysbiosis, I've gone to great lengths to pursue an effective personal stool/FMT donor for years, having tried over 10 myself and solicited many more - I've had an effective donor before, but never one who'd work with me for the duration needed. I'm one of Human Microbes' first recipients and test subjects, one of the first to give direct input on their first fully screened/approved donor, the one who initially funded her stool and blood labs, and the one who has ordered the most stool from them so far. Review: I'd first like to emphasize that firm, dark brown stools from Human Microbes' "first fully screened/approved donor", UT-AW-1998, stored on dry ice from collection till delivery, shipped ASAP with UPS Next Day Air Saver, and processed into FMT with my personalized procedure, have greatly restored my energy, cognition, gastrointestinal comfort, and digestive ability for all food types, each under all circumstances, in a way that'd seem miraculous to most, with even more progress projected from further transplants - I'm well on the way to getting my life back. As I had direct personal input in UT-AW-1998's screening and donation process, I can vouch in the strongest terms for the research, conscientiousness, integrity and responsiveness of Human Microbes and its founder, Michael Harrop, throughout. Human Microbes' donors are the best vetted of any FMT clinic, with the most detailed questionnaire, body type and stool pictures/proofs, a video interview, and soon recipient testimonials, all of which are fully transparent to recipients. Human Microbes and Michael have made great efforts (close to 100 emails) to understand, communicate, and work with me extensively to design and implement a custom stool shipment program for my FMT needs - with his help, UT-AW-1998 has made nearly all the significant improvements I asked for to her donation process in just 1 week. For most people, however, ordering is as simple as filling out a one-page form. Human Microbes has worked to keep prices as affordable as possible without compromising donor incentive (less expensive than other clinics, even with better donor screening and procedures), and made a deal with UPS to cut shipping prices after I'd already paid for my first order, the difference for which I was promptly refunded; Human Microbes and Michael have always handled my money responsibly, and I say this having sent them thousands of dollars already through Zelle. As for Michael personally, I've found him to be the most transparent, standup, and trustworthy person (sometimes to a fault) I've met in my FMT journey. He's always responded to my questions and input promptly, in detail, and with perhaps the deepest holistic understanding of the research and experience of FMT in the world, which belies his years of selfless, often thankless (I wouldn't believe a word of any Reddit smears against him) solo promotion for FMT on various social media outlets - this may sound exaggerated, but as anyone who's conscientiously pursued FMT in the current environment can tell you, it's absolutely not. His (free) writings and compiled materials have helped me greatly even before I became involved with Human Microbes. Michael isn't doing this for the money - despite not being financially well-off, he's actually refused to take the extra money I offered him in appreciation. His goal, which I believe in from my interactions with him, is to promote the scientific awareness of the microbiome, and availability of a safe, natural, potentially life-saving cure for many conditions: FMT. The rapid deterioration of our microbiota from a multitude of factors is a global crisis, and Human Microbes is the best step towards fixing it so far. I encourage anyone who reads this to volunteer, to spread the word to as many potential donors as possible, especially healthy young athletes, and in turn, encourage them to apply as donors at https://www-dot-humanmicrobes-dot-org/donors - it's in the health interests of so many for this project to succeed, and everyone can play a part.

great microbes

I ordered from Humanmicrobes and have not been disappointed. The donors are well vetted and tested and the shipping was quick. It has been a few weeks and I have noticed a drastic decrease in my depression and anxiety.

Review summary

Human Microbes receives high praise for its knowledgeable staff, particularly Michael, who is noted for his patience and thoroughness in addressing customer inquiries. Many reviewers highlight the life-changing quality of the products and the transparency in the donor selection process, with several customers expressing satisfaction with the results they achieved. However, there are notable complaints regarding communication, with some individuals reporting difficulties in receiving timely email responses or feeling ignored after multiple attempts to reach out. This inconsistency in customer service detracts from an otherwise positive experience for many. Overall, while the company excels in product quality and staff expertise, improvements in response times and customer engagement are needed.
