T2DM obese patients may be treated by medications or by bariatric surgery. Both alternatives have limitations due to incomplete resolution of the diseases, high cost or potential procedural related morbidity. An increasing body of evidence points to a role of the enteric microbiota in the pathogenesis of obesity-related insulin resistance. In addition to that, the gut microbiota is directly affected by the diet composition. Studies in T2DM mice carrying human gut germs, demonstrated special interactions between the gut microbiota and the host, creating a typical microbiota composition which changes significantly following diet change from a western diet, rich with sugar, to a vegetarian diet rich with fibers. This rapid alternations in the microbiota composition has also shown in humans, after changing from western to high fiber diet. A change in diet life style may lead to an improvement in T2DM symptoms such as decrease in visceral adipose tissue.', 'detailedDescription': "Study design:\n\n30 Patients will undergo 2 FMT's from a lean donor and will be randomized into 3 types of diet groups:\n\n1. low fat high fiber diet (20% fat)\n2. no change in fat intake (sham diet)\n3. high fat low fiber diet (40-45% fat)\n\nThe treating physicians and the patients will be blinded for the diet arm. Before and after FMT, patients will be assessed after an overnight fast (and before taking medications) for weight, anthropometric measures, questionnaires (dietary, general health, antibiotic and probiotic exposure, oral diabetes medication quantity, and other drug exposure), blood and stool.\n\nThe investigators hypothesize that fecal microbial transplantation from a lean donor to T2DM obese patients, with the combination of low fat high fiber diet, will alter the gut microbiota composition to decrease insulin resistance through microbiota dependent metabolic and immunologic effects."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 30≤BMI\n* A diagnosis of T2DM (≥3 months) and one of the following:\n\n 1.
