Benefits: - Bypass the stomach acid, preserving more bacteria - Keep the bacteria out of the small intestine mostly to avoid SIBO and avoid having to chase the probiotics with Betaine hcl, Ginger root, digestive enzymes, etc... to keep the small intestine clear which can trigger inflammation. Also not having to pre-coat the small intestine with cranberry molecules to cover any section that is missing the mucous layer. - Feed the colon and large intestine cells MCT oil without having to consume it. - Anecdotally I feed better for several days after doing this. I can do faster power-walks for longer. I do not run to protect my cartilage. - The only GI improvement that I can feel is the lack of discomfort from taking large amounts of probiotics orally. - Very large amounts taken orally can result in small amounts making it past the intestine cell junctions and triggering a small immune response which may have both positive and negative ramifications but that's a much bigger topic. - Less likely to disturb the mucous layer. Drawbacks: - To be useful requires a large amount of bacteria and that requires a large amount of MCT oil and getting into positions to get it up into the large intestine. Well ... it has to come out some time and being liquid one must stay near the restroom. There's no holding it in. Some kind of paste injector tube would be better, probably something similar in form factor and design as the vaginal yeast infection treatments perhaps. If this were a product I would buy it even though it would be harder to get it into the large intestine. - The first few hours after can feel weird as the body has to adjust.
