A composition of fecal material is prepared and administered to a subject suffering from alcohol craving, alcohol consumption and/or alcohol use disorder. The donor fecal material is enriched in beneficial microbiota associated with reduced alcohol craving and/or consumption and supplies beneficial microbiota in which the recipient is deficient, and reduces harmful microbes. Methods of preparing and administering are disclosed, along with the identification of beneficial and harmful microbiota families. The treatment is also useful for delivery of microbiota that are short chain fatty acid producers to reduce alcohol craving and/or consumption in subjects deficient in short chain fatty acids.

In alternative embodiments, the invention provides compositions, e.g., formulations, used for gastric, gastrointestinal and/or colonic treatments or lavage, e.g., orthostatic lavage, e.g., for inducing the purgation (e.g., cleansing) of a gastrointestinal (GI) tract, including a colon; and methods for making and using them. In alternative embodiments, compositions and methods of the invention are used for the stabilization, amelioration, treatment and/or prevention of constipation, for the treatment of abdominal pain, particularly non-specific abdominal pain, and diarrhea, including diarrhea caused by a drug side effect, a psychological condition, a disease or a condition such as Crohn's Disease, a poison, a toxin or an infection, e.g., a toxin-mediated travelers diarrhea, or C. difficile or the pseudo-membranous colitis associated with this infection. In alternative embodiments, the invention provides pharmaceuticals and products (articles) of manufacture for delivering these compositions and formulations to an individual, e.g., a human or an animal. The invention also provides devices for delivering a fecal material to a patient.

An embodiment provides a method for treatment of a viral antigen for the COVID-19 virus, including: obtaining a body fluid from a patient; introducing the body fluid to at least one binding antibody, wherein the at least one binding antibody binds to an antigen of the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein and comprises a conjugated metal; forming a viral antigen-antibody complex; and removing the viral antigen-antibody complex from the body fluid using a radiofrequency method; and returning the body fluid to the patient. Other aspects are described and claimed.
