What if someone ate a small amount of human feces?

Ok: Now a days they are selling in capsules. If the feces contain parasite or bad bacteria.....that will affect the person depending on the person's immune status.

Not a good idea!: BUT..if contaminated by certain infections ..NOT a WISE thing.....Those viruses which are "shed" in huma feces include Hepatitis A B C/ Enteroviruses and YES EBOLA Bacterial infections include Salmonella, Shigella, Just a few of many. WASH YOUR HANDS USE HAND SANITIZERS BE WISE!!! BE WELL!...

Fecal contamination: You may get sick, you may not. You may contract Hepatitis A or one of many bacterial infections. You will need to wait and see. In the mean time, I suggest you reconsider your dietary choices.
