Who hands over the secondary product…
You can earn $13,000 by trading your own feces
The first ever stool bank has been added to the numerous blood and sperm banks in America. Its owners assure that donors will be able to earn up to $ 13 thousand a year on the delivery of a secondary product, while helping many people.
Recently, fecal bacterial transplantation has spread in the world, in which fecal substances from healthy donors are supplied to the human body suffering from a deficiency of certain beneficial bacteria or an excess of harmful microorganisms. The American non-profit organization OpenBiome is engaged in fecal transplantation, organizing donor material for people suffering from Clostridium difficile.
This is an aggressive intestinal bacterium that causes severe stomach upset, because of which people sometimes cannot leave their own home. These bacteria provoke colitis, severe stomach pains and persistent diarrhea. Approximately half a million people in the United States suffer from attacks of these bacteria every year, and in some rare cases they can cause death.
However, Clostridium difficile can be treated and even get rid of them with the simplest procedure of fecal transplantation or fecal bacteriotherapy, in which healthy fecal matter from a donor is injected into the patient's intestines through an endoscope, nasal tube and capsules. The introduction of healthy bacteria into the body is extremely useful for people suffering from Clostridium difficile, so selling feces can save someone's life.
The negative side of this case is that it is not easy to find a donor. People are extremely wary of such a procedure. That is why OpenBiome from Massachusetts has opened the world's first fecal bank. To date, they have already sold more than two thousand frozen stool samples to 200 treatment centers and hospitals across America.
Those who want to earn money by selling their own feces need to have good health, age from 18 to 50 years, body mass index less than 30. However, even in this case, the feces of a potential donor will go through tests, and only after it is received by the patient, the donor will receive his money. A portion of feces costs $40, plus another $50 bonus if the donor can provide 5 servings per week. During the year, the income of one person can be $ 13 thousand.
(If in doubt, read one of the fresh pile of articles in foreign publications.
For example, “You can earn $13,000 a year selling your poop” in The Washington Post – WM.)
