If you were to ask why...
Many fascinating stories circulate about how someone managed to preserve their health throughout an entire lifetime. But can a person who has kept their own body in balance for many years help others do the same? And if so, can they transfer not only health but performance as well?
It would be an extremely long experiment if we wanted to prove that one person’s health can be transferred to another, so we tried to push the boundaries of this still-emerging field in a different way: we attempted to “transfer” the abilities of an outstanding athlete to an average man. To me. Over 300 days, by combining our program aimed at eliminating chronic diseases with our own microbiota transfer procedure, we tried to make a nearly 50-year-old man capable of running 90 km—between August 20, 2023, and September 22, 2024.
We were aware of the physical and medical risks, but we were far more driven by the question of how to achieve not merely a “long life,” but a “life of quality.” And the foundation of that undoubtedly lies in our muscles and skeletal system—and in the physical performance they can provide us.
This was the story of my own MicroBiome Run program. This was our experiment.
