[DIYbio] Re: Oxalobacter formigenes probiotic suppliers? was: (Re)Becoming Human: what happened the day I replaced 99% of the genes in my body

This report republished by the national insitutes of health concluded that "The probiotic supplement sold over the Internet by PRO-LAB Ltd and Sanzyme Ltd did not contain identifiable O. formigenes or viable oxalate-degrading organisms, and they are unlikely to be of benefit to calcium oxalate kidney stone patients." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25733259 I do not know if it is either of those but prior research for which I do not have citations available seemed to indicate it is available in Canada but not in the US.

The article mentions Oxalobacter formigenes being present in significant percentage in the Hadza, and that this is something that western microbiomes pretty much lack.

I tried googling oxalobacter probiotic, but didn't get very far. Is this something that doesn't exist? If it does, can someone post a link here? I've got a friend with kidney stones who has been living with them due to lack of western healthcare insurance.

The role of Oxalobacter formigenes colonization in calcium oxalate stone disease.
