Preparation A - Stool Softeners
4 weeks prior to your treatment start taking Oxyklenz, OxyPowder, Colosan or MagO7 (ask Clinic for suppliers during your consultation).
10 days prior to your treatment have a colonic irrigation treatment locally to your home.
Preparation B – Moviprep
Option B involves using MOVIPREP* (this is a type of cleanser used in bowel preparation prior to colonoscopy – your local pharmacist should be able to advise you of alternatives, ask your doctor to prescribe it for you, or ask Clinic for suppliers during your consultation).
10 days prior to your treatment have one or two colonic irrigation treatments locally to your home.
2 days prior to the start of your FMT Program – MOVIPREP
Preparation C – 3 colonics prior to starting FMT
Attend our UK Clinic for three days in the week immediately prior to your FMT Programme for Prep C: three colon lavages
Prep C is one colon lavage per day for three consecutive days at the end of the week before the FMT programme date.
Typically it is booked for the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in the previous week with the weekend to rest and prepare the gut lining for the FMT programme starting on the following Monday.
Prep C is an additional cost of £597 including tax.
The Tamount clinic is a one off, the care I received was above & beyond what I had hoped for, my therapist helped me get past my fears & made the whole process as easy as possible for me, the staff are really friendly, it doesn't feel like a hospital, the treatment didn't hurt & I felt very cared for…. I will always be grateful to [Taymount] for what they have done for me, basically given me my life back...What a gift....

Taymount FMT Standard
The Taymount FMT Standard places safety, quality and care at the heart of everything we do.
We use implants that have been quarantined for safety
TML.science supply our implants after strict donor selection, screening and quarantine procedures to protect patient safety.
- TML.science select: donors with a healthy microbiome. Every donor receives dietary and lifestyle advice to optimise their gut health.
- TML.science screen: donors undertake regular screening. Donations are tested DAILY to ensure microbial quality and safety. Every three months, donors are blood tested to screen for a wide range of diseases including HIV and Hepatitis.
- TML.science quarantine: fresh material is never used. All donated material is quarantined at -80°C in the laboratory for at least 12 weeks to ensure no latent disease was present.
- TML.science release donated material for FMT only when screening proves the quarantine period has been successfully cleared.
We only transplant microbial cells
We never use the whole stool. TML.science laboratory extract gut flora (microbial cells) from donated material to create FMT implants.
By removing food, mucus, biliary waste, skin cells, blood cell debris, hormones and other toxins from donor material we may avoid some potential side effects.
For example, a woman with naturally high testosterone levels will not receive additional male hormones via our Gut Flora Transplants (FMT), and therefore may avoid the risk of hormonal imbalance.
The UK Human Tissue Authority (HTA) has excluded TML.science FMT implants from HTA regulation because their process leaves it highly unlikely that any intact host human cells remain in the extracted microbial implant.
We use 10 different donors per program
A diverse microbiome is key to a healthy gut and strong immune system. Each TML.science donor provides, on average, over 1000 different types of microbial cell.
Our 10 day FMT Programme uses implants from 10 different donors to maximise the diversity of gut flora a client receives.
Safety aliquots are stored for a minimum of two years
An aliquot (safety sample) is saved from every FMT implant that TML.science creates. They are stored at -80°c for a minimum of two years, to allow for any subsequent audit testing.
We track FMT implants worldwide
Every single one of our implants (used in the UK or anywhere in the world), can be traced to its original donor source. TML.science’s international tracking system provides peace of mind for us, and for clients.
We ultra deep freeze to be safe, responsive and accessible
Evidence shows frozen FMT implants are just as effective as fresh material (C. difficile studies 2014, 2016, 2017).
Freezing our FMT implants at -80°c allows us to be:
- Safe – Freezing allows us to enforce the quarantine period. FMT implants are only released when donor screening proves the quarantine has been successfully cleared.
- Responsive – Banking frozen implants allows us to respond quickly to meet patient need. For example, past clients can request top-up implants from any Taymount Clinic, globally.
TML.science protect quality at every stage
Obligate anaerobes (microbial cells that cannot survive oxygen exposure) make up to 95% of the microbiome. These microbial cells are protected from oxygen at each stage, from donation to processing, storage and delivery to retain the entire microbiome for transplantation.
We consider you, the whole person
Our clients benefit from holistic advice, designed to help them gain long-term control of their digestive health.
Our team of clinicians includes FMT Practitioners, Nutritional Therapists, Naturopaths and Functional Medicine Doctors, who provide supervision, guidance on nutrition, lifestyle choices, stress relief and life-coaching as an integral part of our approach to Gut Flora Transplantation – FMT.
We also involve Holistic Dentists, who bring expertise in the connection between dental health and gut flora, which is key to helping us to work towards optimum outcomes.
We also recognise the role that stress-relief plays in successful outcomes and good health and we offer help with relaxation techniques, meditation and lifestyle improvements generally.
