The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
basically make primers that are specific to that strain and then you're using PCR in a quantitative way to understand well how much of it is in there compared to say some other strain or compared to the the entirety of all the different bacteria in there

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
although there are some really interesting tools that people are starting to develop to try to get at that but the more accurate way to get it the quantitation or how much of this strain is actually in the microbiome is this quantitative PCR
